Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa, 55 Laurier Ave E, Ottawa, ON, K1N 6N5, Canada.
Evidence-based policymaking has increased policymakers' capacity to make scientifically informed health policy decisions. However, reaping the benefits of this approach requires avoiding untrustworthy research - potential sources of which are predatory journals. In this study, we sought to understand how research cited in policy documents is sourced and evaluated, and identify factors that may be contributing to the citation of predatory journals or other less trustworthy evidence.

Background: The effect of a liberal red-cell transfusion strategy as compared with a restrictive strategy in patients during the critical care period after an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is unclear.
Methods: We randomly assigned critically ill adults with acute aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and anemia to a liberal strategy (mandatory transfusion at a hemoglobin level of ≤10 g per deciliter) or a restrictive strategy (optional transfusion at a hemoglobin level of ≤8 g per deciliter). The primary outcome was an unfavorable neurologic outcome, defined as a score of 4 or higher on the modified Rankin scale (range, 0 to 6, with higher scores indicating greater disability) at 12 months.
Necrotizing fasciitis of the head and neck in era of COVID-19: a single-institution experience.
IJID Reg
September 2024
The Ottawa Hospital, Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Ottawa, Canada.
Objectives: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) of the head and neck is a critical condition, known for its severe impact and high mortality rates, often linked with diabetes, odontogenic infections, and immunosuppression. Observations from the University of Ottawa's Department of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery indicate an increase in NF cases since the COVID-19 pandemic began, suggesting a possible association between COVID-19 and NF. This study aims to assess the incidence of NF since the pandemic's onset and explore its association with COVID-19.

Article Synopsis
- Studies primarily focus on the sexual attractions of minor-attracted persons, leaving a gap in understanding their romantic attractions.
- An online survey gathered anonymous accounts from 74 self-identified minor-attracted men regarding their romantic feelings towards minors.
- The analysis revealed that romantic attraction to minors is similar to that of adults, suggesting the need for a broader approach in how minor attraction is understood, assessed, and treated.*
