What to use instead of NICE Evidence Search - a first thought
I have been promoting NICE Evidence Search much more systematically this year to " my " first year undergraduates in their first library session.  It is also on the resource lists I ' ve made for each of their courses.  I like the idea that there is one source, where all the results have been evaluated by health information professionals, and I ' ve suggested it ' s a good first place to search for any health topic.  But NICE Evidence Search is closing at the end of March 2022.  So what to use instead?NICE Evidence Search has two lists of sources, one of sites where some of the content is...

FDA, Google met to discuss use of search to find adverse drug reactions
Google met with the FDA last month to discuss the possibility of the FDA using Google search data to learn about drug side effects, according to a report in Bloomberg, which spotted a public record of the meeting and secured additional information from an FDA spokesperson. The talk appears to have been an informal, early-stage discussion on […]

Next Phase of NIH Preprint Pilot Launching Soon
Last month, the National Library of Medicine (NLM)announced plans to extend its NIH Preprint Pilot in PubMed Central (PMC) and PubMed beyond COVID-19 to encompass all preprints reporting on NIH-funded research. The second phase of the pilot, launching later this month, will include preprints supported by an NIH award, contract, or intramural program and posted to aneligible preprint server on or after January 1, 2023.In preparation for the launch of this second phase, we have updated PMC and PubMed site features to help users of these databases incorporate the increased volume of preprints into their discovery workflows. S...

Second Phase of the NIH Preprint Pilot Launched
Today, we are pleased to announce the launch of the second phase of the NIH Preprint Pilot with the addition of more than 700 new preprint records to PubMed Central (PMC) and PubMed. This second phase expands the scope of the Pilot to include preprints resulting from all NIH-funded research. Eligible preprints are those acknowledging direct support of an NIH award or authored by NIH staff and posted to bioRxiv, medRxiv, arXiv, or Research Square, on or after January 1, 2023. NLM will automatically include the full text of the preprint (as license terms allow) and associated citation information in PMC and PubMed, respectiv...

Abstract C81: Identification of novel synergistic targets for rational drug combinations with PI3 kinase inhibitors using siRNA synthetic lethality screening against GBM
In this study, we performed a synthetic lethality screen to identify genes or pathways whose inactivation, in combination with the PI3K inhibitors PX-866 and NVPBEZ-235, might result in a lethal phenotype in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells. We screened GBM cells (U87, U251, and T98G) with a large-scale, short hairpin RNA library (GeneNet), which contains 43 800 small interfering RNA sequences targeting 8500 well-characterized human genes. To decrease off-target effects, we selected overlapping genes among the 3 cell lines that synergized with PX- 866 to induce cell death. To facilitate the identification of potential t...

HP DesignJet Printing Technology Helps New Jersey Search and Rescue Save Lives
New Jersey Search and Rescue (NJSAR), a team of more than 50 highly trained volunteers who conduct an average of 25 missing-person searches per year, installed an HP DesignJet T2500 Multifunction Printer (MFP) to produce large-format maps to aid in search-and-rescue missions. On call 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 365 days a year, NJSAR provides New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania with incident management, mountain rescue, ground search, medical, and K-9 search-and-rescue services. Helping NJSAR remain on the forefront of search-and rescue-strategy, the HP DesignJet T2500 MFP scans, prints and copies 36-inch maps...

America ' s Foreign Policy Attention Deficit
We Washingtonians rightly get criticized for being hyper focused on politics. While D.C. natives gossip about the ups and downs of the powerful elite, most Americans are worrying about their marriages and mortgages. The disjuncture is even greater when it comes to foreign policy, an area in which public interest and knowledge are particularly limited. As many scholars have pointed out, to some degree this dynamic is the result of “rational ignorance” on the part of the public. Given the many other priorities citizens have in their private lives, the benefits of following policy debates closely is quite limited so long ...

The patient, AI and the search for answers
Just as pharma was beginning to understand and work with the way patients gather healthcare information online, the paradigm is set to change utterly. Thanks so very much ChatGPT.Given the sudden mass global adoption of AI tools powered by large language models, rapid disruption looks certain. The tools, now increasingly on our smartphones, offer highly plausible and personable ways to find convenient answers to the billion health related questions humankind asks daily.AI-generated health advice is out-ranking physicians on both quality and empathy.The allure is clear. AI is proving more empathetic than GPs and it can prov...

Spitfire search in Burma draws a blank
Archaeologists cancel news conference after failing to find British fighter planes believed to be buried in BurmaIt's the confession that no excavation team ever wants to make – that its search has come up empty. But for Spitfire hunters in Burma, who have been on the prowl since early January for dozens of second-world-war-era British fighter planes, that seeming admission came on Friday, when archaeologists were forced to cancel a news conference after their search turned up not planes but cables and pipes instead.The British-led archaeology team, headed by the Lincolnshire farmer and Spitfire enthusiast David Cundall,...

Supreme Court Rejects Roving License to Detain People Incident to Far-Away Search
Ilya Shapiro While the Fourth Amendment may not have passed the smell test in one Supreme Court ruling yesterday – which problem would effectively go away if we ended the Drug War – it handily survived questionable police tactics in a far more important case, Bailey v. United States.   In Bailey, the Court rejected the argument that police should be able to detain someone anywhere at any time if they see that person exiting a location for which there’s a valid search warrant.  Instead, by a 6-3 vote in an opinion written by Justice Anthony Kennedy, the Court ruled that the power ...

Australian Authorities Regret the ‘Unacceptable’ End to MH370 Search
(SYDNEY) – Australian authorities said they deeply regret not finding missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 and the ongoing mystery is “unacceptable,” in their final report on the unsuccessful search which was published on Tuesday. “The reasons for the loss of MH370 cannot be established with certainty until the aircraft is found,” the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) said in the report. “It is almost inconceivable and certainly societally unacceptable in the modern aviation era… for a large commercial aircraft to be missing and for the world not to know with certainty wh...

Cato Files Brief Challenging Qualified Immunity for Warrantless Strip Search of 4-Year-Old
For over a year, Cato has been leading the charge to challenge the doctrine ofqualified immunity:  an atextual, ahistorical doctrine invented by the Supreme Court in the 1960s, which shields government agents from liability for misconduct – even when they break the law. Today marks a huge milestone in that ongoing campaign, as Cato has just filed an amicus brief in support of anew cert petition calling on the Court to reconsider this doctrine. So has adiverse, cross-ideological alliance of over a dozen prominent public interest groups, as well a group of leading qualified immunity scholars. In the words of Wyatt Earp: ...
