Objectives: Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT) is a popular natural-language processor that is able to analyze and respond to a variety of prompts, providing eloquent answers based on a collection of Internet data. ChatGPT has been considered an avenue for the education of resident physicians in the form of board preparation in the contemporary literature, where it has been applied against board study material across multiple medical specialties. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the performance of ChatGPT on the Personal Review of Learning in Obstetrics and Gynecology (PROLOG) assessments and gauge its specialty specific knowledge for educational applications.

Objective: Hemostatic abnormalities, including disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), are often cited as a common finding in patients following Loxosceles spider envenomation (ie, loxoscelism).

This study aimed to characterize coagulation laboratory parameters and coagulopathy in patients following L reclusa envenomation.
