Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators developed an AI-based model that can identify hospitalized patients at risk of low blood sugar up to 24 hours before the condition occurs. The long short-term memory (LSTM) model, described in npj Digital Medicine, could help

Mandatory Nutri-Grade front-of-pack labels for beverages have been found in a study to redirect household consumers toward healthier drinks, as well as encourage manufacturers to reformulate their products to include less sugar. Sugary drinks are a major driver of excess sugar in
