1.This model was co-developed by the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism and the Department of General Practice, Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Fuzhou University, China.

2.The model can assist attending physicians in providing psychological counseling for patients who experience emotional issues such as anxiety and depression during the weight loss process.

3.Innovation: This model focuses on incorporating the management of subclinical negative emotions, including guilt, self-blame, irritability and severe mood swings.

4.This study adopted a hybrid approach combining model distillation and fine-tuning to conduct targeted training on a foundational large language model (LLM) that lacks prior knowledge in psychological counseling. By infusing the model with specialized knowledge related to weight loss psychological counseling, we ultimately developed a lightweight AI virtual psychological counseling expert exclusively tailored for weight loss clinics, which is suitable for on-premises deployment within hospitals.
