A Call to Address AI "Hallucinations" and How Healthcare Professionals Can Mitigate Their Risks.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed society in many ways. AI in medicine has the potential to improve medical care and reduce healthcare professional burnout but we must be cautious of a phenomenon termed "AI hallucinations"and how this term can lead to the stigmatization of AI systems and persons who experience hallucinations. We believe the term "AI misinformation" to be more appropriate and avoids contributing to stigmatization.

Social support and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic among a cohort of people living with HIV (PLWH) in Western Kenya.

As coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was declared a pandemic in 2020, countries around the world implemented various prevention strategies, such as banning of public and social gatherings, restriction in movement, etc. These efforts may have had a deleterious effect on already vulnerable populations, including people living with HIV (PLWH). PLWH were concerned about contracting COVID-19, the impact of COVID-19 on their social networks that provide social support, and the continued availability of antiretroviral medications during the pandemic.

Learning from women who trade sex in Kenya about the antiblackness of Global Health.

Sex work and violence have become co-constituted, routinized, and even sanitized in Global Health journals dispassionately advocating for intervention. This paper situates ethnographically shared experiences of Kenyan sex working women within the global condition of antiblackness. By grounding our conceptual analytic in Black Feminist scholarship, we illustrate how antiblackness subtends the conditions of possibility for women's entry into sex work, their subsequent experiences with interpersonal and institutional forms of predatory violence, and lack of recourse for their material needs and suffering.

Amniotic Fluid Volume Estimation from 20 Weeks to 28 Weeks. Do You Measure Perpendicular to the Floor or Perpendicular to the Uterine Contour?

Objective: Two different techniques are described in the literature for measuring amniotic fluid pockets to estimate amniotic fluid volume. This study was undertaken to determine if ultrasound estimates using amniotic fluid index (AFI) and single deepest pocket (SDP) techniques should be measured perpendicular to floor vs perpendicular to uterine contour in pregnancies between 20 and 28 weeks.

Study Design: Amniotic fluid was measured using AFI and SDP techniques in low risk pregnant women undergoing an indicated ultrasound between 20 and 28 weeks of gestation.
