The ways historians assemble primary material from which to learn how industry has failed to protect workers and the environment is changing dramatically. Increasingly, historians focus concern on the evolution of the internet and the demise of paper records. The authors of "Monsanto, PCBs," and the Creation of a "World-Wide Ecological Problem" (2018) are also founders of ToxicDocs.org. This web-based resource provides an entirely new degree of transparency. Readers of their article may look at any document they cite by clicking on the reference. Those with or without expertise in science can now judge these authors' analysis, and much more: entertain new lines of inquiry, ask new questions, obtain new insights, and publish well-documented pieces that offer new knowledge and insight to enrich our understanding, not only of the PCB story, but also industry's general behavior when using or marketing toxic substances.

Large language models improve the identification of emergency department visits for symptomatic kidney stones.
Sci Rep

Department of Urology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, USA.
Recent advancements of large language models (LLMs) like generative pre-trained transformer 4 (GPT-4) have generated significant interest among the scientific community. Yet, the potential of these models to be utilized in clinical settings remains largely unexplored. In this study, we investigated the abilities of multiple LLMs and traditional machine learning models to analyze emergency department (ED) reports and determine if the corresponding visits were due to symptomatic kidney stones.

Reflective supervision (RS) has been viewed as best practice and is therefore incorporated-and often mandated-as a key feature of many relationship-based infant and early childhood serving programs. To promote the implementation of high-quality RS for infant and early childhood professionals, it is critical that a focus is placed on how infant and early childhood professionals are trained to build RS capacities. To this end, we describe Rhode Island, United States's journey developing, implementing, and iteratively adapting an RS professional development series.

The Social Construction of Categorical Data: Mixed Methods Approach to Assessing Data Features in Publicly Available Datasets.

January 2025
Institute of History and Ethics in Medicine, School of Medicine and Health, Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany.
Background: In data-sparse areas such as health care, computer scientists aim to leverage as much available information as possible to increase the accuracy of their machine learning models' outputs. As a standard, categorical data, such as patients' gender, socioeconomic status, or skin color, are used to train models in fusion with other data types, such as medical images and text-based medical information. However, the effects of including categorical data features for model training in such data-scarce areas are underexamined, particularly regarding models intended to serve individuals equitably in a diverse population.

Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA, USA.
Background: Critical illness not only threatens the life of the patient but also may profoundly impact the lives of their loved ones. For teenagers with a critically ill parent, these impacts may have significant, developmentally impactful effects. A descriptive understanding of these effects may advance scholarly understanding of the challenges these teenagers face.
