Is ChatGPT reliable and accurate in answering pharmacotherapy-related inquiries in both Turkish and English?

IntroductionArtificial intelligence (AI), particularly ChatGPT, is becoming more and more prevalent in the healthcare field for tasks such as disease diagnosis and medical record analysis. The objective of this study is to evaluate the proficiency and accuracy of ChatGPT in different domains of clinical pharmacy cases and queries. MethodsThe study NAPLEX® Review Questions, 4th edition, pertaining to 10 different chronic conditions compared ChatGPT's responses to pharmacotherapy cases and questions obtained from McGraw Hill's, alongside the answers provided by the book's authors. The proportion of correct responses was collected and analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 29. ResultsWhen tested in English, ChatGPT had substantially higher mean scores than when tested in Turkish. The average accurate score for English and Turkish was 0.41 ± 0.49 and 0.32 ± 0.46, respectively, p = 0.18. Responses to queries beginning with “Which of the following is correct?” are considerably more precise than those beginning with “Mark all the incorrect answers?” 0.66 ± 0.47 as opposed to 0.16 ± 0.36; p = 0.01 in English language and 0.50 ± 0.50 as opposed to 0.14 ± 0.34; p < 0.05in Turkish language. ConclusionChatGPT displayed a moderate level of accuracy while responding to English inquiries, but it displayed a slight level of accuracy when responding to Turkish inquiries, contingent upon the question format. Improving the accuracy of ChatGPT in languages other than English requires the incorporation of several components. The integration of the English version of ChatGPT into clinical practice has the potential to improve the effectiveness, precision, and standard of patient care provision by supplementing personal expertise and professional judgment. However, it is crucial to utilize technology as an adjunct and not a replacement for human decision-making and critical thinking.

Policy Dialogue on Twenty-First-Century Book Banning in the US

AbstractBook banning is a topic covered in many US history classrooms. Students learn that in the first decades of the twentieth century, fights over the teaching of evolution led to restrictions on science texts. Meanwhile, fears about the spread of communism sparked campaigns to limit access to “subversive” ideas. Well into the 1960s, textbooks usually explain, Americans remained at odds about what schools should be free to teach.What’s old is new, it seems. And tomorrow’s textbooks will have to be updated with stories from the present. As this issue goes to press, conservative groups across the United States have sought to remove hundreds of titles from schools and libraries. Such attempts range from challenges filed by individual parents—often inspired by the list curated on BookLooks.org—to statewide legislative efforts to recall books from schools. Thousands of books have been removed from libraries and classrooms, and the chilling effect has led cautious educators to self-censor even further.For this policy dialogue, the HEQ editors asked Adam Laats and Kasey Meehan to discuss book banning in the US, focusing particularly on the motivations of groups seeking to limit what young people can read. Adam Laats is a professor of education and history at SUNY Binghamton. A leading scholar of conservative activism in education, he is the author of several books including The Other School Reformers (Harvard University Press, 2015) and Fundamentalist U (Oxford University Press, 2018). Kasey Meehan is the director of the Freedom to Read program at PEN America, where she leads initiatives to protect the right of students to freely access literature in schools. Founded in 1922, PEN America is the largest of the more than one hundred centers worldwide that make up the PEN International network. PEN America works to ensure that people everywhere have the freedom to create literature, to convey information and ideas, to express their views, and to access the views, ideas, and literatures of others.HEQ policy dialogues are, by design, intended to promote an informal, free exchange of ideas between scholars. At the end of the exchange, we offer a list of references for readers who wish to follow up on sources relevant to the discussion.

К вопросу об онтологическом единстве человеческой природы

The article analyses theological teaching about human nature expressed in the book “Took the Form of a Servant. To the Matter of Distortions of the Orthodox Understanding of Incarnation in Catholic and Orthodox Theological Thought of the end of XIX – beginning of XXI c.” published in 2020. The authors of the book question the ideas on Incarnation put forward by a number of XX c. theologians, combined under a concept of “incarnation theology”. They believe that teaching about ontological unity of human nature leads to a misinterpretation of Incarnation as the union of Christ with all humanity and implies a doctrine of apocatastasis, the salvation of everyone.The article puts the views of the authors of the book in the context of XX c. Russian theology. It argues that Metropolitan Anthony (Khrapovitskiy) adopted the idea of unity of humankind in the image of Divine Tri-unity from XIX c. “lay theology” and based his “moral theory of Atonement” on it. While not agreeing with the “moral theory”, a number of subsequent theologians, including St. Hilarion (Troitsky), Fr. George Florovsky and Vladimir Lossky, further developed his ideas of the unity of human nature. His teaching on human nature was criticised by St. Seraphim (Sobolev) and Archbishop Theophan (Bystrov). The article analyses their arguments, including, on one hand, the clear distinction between Divine and human natures, and on the other, especially for Archbishop Theophan, questioning the very unity of human nature.The article points out that the arguments in the book continue the arguments of Archbishop Theophan. It analyses the triple definition of human nature put forward by the authors of the book, partly based on the teaching of Thomas Aquinas and neoplatonics on universals. Whereas the article rejects some parts of this definition as poorly compatible with the Orthodox doctrine, the definition of human nature as composition common to all humans is acceptable; however, the authors’ objection against ontological unity of human nature means that they only mean unity as sameness and come close to John Philoponus’ doctrine of “partial substances”. The article demonstrates that misinterpretation of the notions of nature and hypostasis underlies the book authors’ criticism of St. Hilarion (Troitsky) and Vladimir Lossky on the issue of common nature.

The Baron von Münchhausen of British Travel Writers: Edmund Spencer and his Travels in Circassia

Abstract The article is devoted to a critical analysis of the legacy of Edmund Spencer – a nineteenth century British travel writer and author of numerous books and articles on Circassia and the Caucasus. The widespread use of Spencer’s work by historians notwithstanding, until now there has been no published biography of the author, which led to a proliferation of claims about his background and the timing and circumstances of his visit to Circassia. This article contributes to the correction of this omission by presenting the results of the latest biographical research on Edmund Spencer, based on manuscript and printed primary sources. Despite doubts expressed by some historians about the existence of such a person, the article conclusively proves that Edmund Spencer was indeed a real historical personage. Furthermore, since until now no attempt has been made to evaluate the reliability of Spencer’s works on Circassia as historical sources, the article examines references to Spencer in contemporaneous manuscript sources, such as the British, French and Russian diplomatic, military and intelligence correspondence and reports, finding that available documentary evidence refutes the author’s claim of a visit to the interior of Circassia. The attitudes of Western scholars of the period and of foreign visitors to Circassia raise further serious doubts about the authenticity of Spencer’s travelogues. The article calls into question Spencer’s account of his travels in Circassia as a source of geographic, ethnographic and sociological knowledge, concluding that it was a nothing more than a fabrication.

Ukrainian book influencers of thematic telegram channels from the perspective of influencer marketing

The article examines the peculiarities of the functioning of author's book blogs in the Ukrainian segment of Telegram. The author argues that writing reviews by readers on a social network has long been a much larger phenomenon than reader promotion of books, but is an expression of the global phenomenon of online influencer marketing. It is proposed to adopt the term "book influencer" as a generally accepted international term for book influencers. The study analyses Ukrainian author's book blogs on Telegram and identifies 17 most popular ones by the number of subscribers. The article focuses on the peculiarities of bloggers' public identity, in particular, in the selection of content and the use of labelling for posts. It is proved that the main characteristic of the public identity of book influencers is reading as a lifestyle. Some of the latest strategies for engaging the audience are described, in particular, the activation of subscribers using the military-patriotic theme. It is found that book bloggers do not act on the basis of anonymity, but are interested in developing their own brand and creating social capital. posting posts on a commercial basis, and cooperation with publishers is not always on a barter basis. It has been found that most of the blogs we analysed have labelled advertising (11 out of 17), however, only a few bloggers openly state the terms of advertising. It is noted that in addition to the marketing function, book telegram channels have a value-oriented function for their audience. It is determined that book influencers are now defending the Ukrainian book and Ukrainian book publishing, and condemning Russian literature as part of the identity of the aggressor country in the Russian-Ukrainian war.

The foundation of monastery in gorodets, dedicated to theodore stratelates, in the church historiography of the 19th to the early 20th centuries

The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of the church historiography of the question of the time of the founding of monastery, dedicated to Theodore Stratelates, in Gorodets. The origin of the date of foundation of the monastery (1152, 1154, 1164) is considered. It is determined that the first date (1152) appears in the book on the history of the monastery, published in 1890. It is deduced by the author, Archimandrite Theodosius, purely logically. The second date (1154) is based only on the speculative constructions of the authors of books on the history of the monastery in 1870 and 1913. The only support in the historical source is the provision on the establishment of Gorodets monastery in 1164. This date was listed in the chronicle kept in Theodore cloister. The article gives a description of the named document.

Spatial Vortices in The Qur'an and Modern Science

Atmospheric vortices are one of the new issues that have attracted the attention of scientists today. The Holy Qur'an refers to atmospheric vortices in the first verse of Surah Takweer as the extinguishing and wrapping of the sun, in the eighth verse of Surah Qayamat as the dimming of the moon, in the first verse of Surah Najm, the eighth verse of Surah Mursalat and the second verse of Surah Infatar is mentioned as fading, darkening and scattering and collapsing of heavenly lights and stars. One of the types of death of stars is turning into vortices and black holes; Vortices are one of the most important astronomical phenomena that occur after the death of large stars. Vortices and black holes are the strangest objects in the world that do not reflect any light and do not bring us information; In addition, most vortices and black holes are the last stage of life of the brightest stars in the world; The main goal of this research is to explain the existence of the problem of spatial vortices in the Qur'an and compare it with modern science. What adds to the importance of this research is encouraging readers and researchers of today's world to study the Holy Quran and inviting them to discuss the issues of the day. The chosen method in this research is a library and analytical one, which first quotes Quranic verses from authentic books of interpretations and other books of modern science, then analyzes those verses and the ideas of scientists and the works and benefits derived from it. And it has been pointed out.

ظاھرۃ الوضع في الحدیث: دراسۃ تاریخیۃ

In Islamic Studies, the status of Hadith comes next to the Holy Quran. The teachings of Quran are interpreted in the light of Hadith. Moreover, all commandments and queries of Shariah have come through Hadith. In the beginning of Islam, the Muslims considered the Hadith as the most important source of knowledge. In this regard, Muhaddiseen offered such services and wrote such books as ever exemplified in the history of the world. It is fact that the concoction of Hadith started in the Nabvi Era and continued till the period of followers (Tabeen). There were multi-dimensional motives behind this evil like lust, atheism, religious biasness, sectarian indifferences, fame and obedience of kings and rulers etc. Muhadditheen face this evil’s challenge with zeal and zest in every era of the Islamic history. They framed the best principles to overcome the situation for the safeguard the Hadith. In this regard, the Muhadditheen of the Sub-continent played an unforgettable and historical role. So that I have discussed the concocted the Hadith in this article. The article is so informative and enlightening that the reader feels it useful in this field. Particularly, the Sub-continent has always played a vital role in this regard, for the most authentic books of Hadith have come from this part of the world.

Al-Dirāsah al-Muqāranah baina Kitābay al-Jurūmiyah al-Jawān wa Matn Alajrūmiyah fī al-Bāb Marfū’at al-Asmā’

Arabic without the knowledge of Ilm Nahwu cannot be understood. The Matn Alajrūmiyah and al-Jurumiyah al-Jawan are reference books for learning qawāid (Arabic grammar), commonly used in Islamic boarding school environments. All students must study Arabic grammar as a basis for their ability to read the manuscript (turāś). This research aims to explain the differences in the preparation of qawāid learning materials, especially in the Marfūat al-Asmā' chapter in the al-Jurumiyah al-Jawan book and the Matn Alajrūmiyah book so that students can detect the ease of learning Arabic using these two books. The type of research used is qualitative library research with comparative study methods. The results of the research show that both books have complete material regarding Marfūat al-Asmā' along with relevant examples. The difference lies in the additional content, where the author of the al-Jurumiyah al-Jawan book not only presents material on Arabic language rules but also inserts ancestral advice. As for the book Matn Alajrūmiyah, the author only focuses on the rules of Marfūat al-Asmā'. al-Jurumiyah al-Jawan uses the Arabic pegon script with Javanese as the language of instruction, except in examples. The Matn Alajrūmiyah uses Arabic script and Arabic as a whole. As for the style of presentation, the al-Jurumiyah al-Jawan book uses a poetry style that is relatively easy to memorize, in contrast to the Matn Alajrūmiyah, which uses a prose style.

Vyatka priest, educator and methodist teacher N. N. Blinov

Introduction. One of the active processes of humanization of education in modern conditions is an appeal to the best achievements of the past, to the works of representatives of Russian, including regional pedagogy, whose creative searches were permeated with the ideas of humanism, concern for the upbringing and education of a person. Genuine interest is aroused by the multifaceted pedagogical and methodological activities of the famous Vyatka priest, zemstvo figure and methodist teacher N. N. Blinov (1839-1917), who clearly manifested himself as a practical teacher, a methodologist of primary education at the All-Russian level, the author of numerous educational books, an educator and researcher of the history of the Udmurt people. Materials and methods. The author uses as research methods: analysis of historical and pedagogical literature, biographical and historical methods, axiological (value) approach to the study of historical and pedagogical material. In his work, the author used a number of publications by foreign and Russian authors. Results. The period of activity of N. N. Blinov coincided with the time of activation of the development of education in Russia. In the Russian provinces, local methodologists in the field of education actively worked, – authors of textbooks and the first alphabets, mainly for the so–called "small", i.e. non-Russian, peoples. Blinov was one of the most prominent representatives of the Russian regional enlightenment in the second half of the XIX – first two decades of the XX centuries. His activities were of a multilateral nature. Russian Russian was the author of textbooks for Russian and Udmurt children, the organizer of rural schools, and his local history work was highly appreciated by the Russian Imperial Geographical Society. Especially his books "Learning – light" and the first Udmurt alphabet "Lydzon" should be highlighted. Discussion. In N. N. Blinov's method of teaching reading, the presence of such a new element in literacy teaching for that time as a clearly established and filled with concrete content step-by-step, currently known as "algorithmization", is original and valuable. At the same time, the desire to establish strict stages in the assimilation of letters was inevitably accompanied by the need to introduce words whose meaning was still unknown to children. Conclusion. Blinov's fruitful scientific, methodological and practical pedagogical activity, his local history work are a vivid phenomenon in the history of Russian provincial education. His methodological views remain relevant up to the present time. Vyatka educator contributed to the development of Udmurt culture and literature by being the author of original ethnographic, dramatic, historical and biographical works. His turbulent, eventful life deserves further study, as well as his numerous works.

Preliminary Survey on Ethnomedicinal Value of Spontaneous Urban Plants

One of the major global trends of the twenty-first century that has a big impact on our lives is urbanization. By 2050, two-thirds of the world's population, who currently make up half of the population are expected to reside in urban regions. The demands of urban environments can lead to greater poverty and environmental degradation such as poor air and water quality, shortages in water supply, waste-disposal issues, and excessive energy consumption will become worse. Additionally, urbanization encourages the invasion of non-native species by reducing the diversity of plant species, making it difficult to plant growth. Some species, however, exhibit signs of resilience to these challenges and are adaptable to the urban environment. Spontaneous Urban Plants (SUP), also known as "weeds" are frequently found in abandoned urban landscapes. They are neglected as unwelcome, unwieldy, and unkempt, but they thrive in environments where most plants cannot grow. They can grow out of cracks in the sidewalks, in the wall of a garbage ditches, or even in a tiny space inside the walls of houses. This research aims to identify the SUP species with ethnomedicinal values in urban environment. This roadside surveys were conducted to identify SUP species with ethnomedicinal values in 10 urban areas in the Galle district between January and July 2020. Open-ended and semi-structured questionnaire was used to interview a total of 37 people including Ayurveda and traditional medical practitioners, community elders and people experts in plants. The acquired data were verified using the Ayurveda authentic books and reputed journals. A total of 50 plant species of 27 families were identified as SUP. Asteraceae and Amaranthaceae and Fabaceae were reported as the most represented families. The most plant species are used to treat gastrointestinal disorders, followed by respiratory disorders and dermatological conditions. However, ethnomedicinal values of these SUP are yet to be revealed. &#x0D; Keywords: Ethnomedicinal, Spontaneous urban plants, Urbanization, Weed

Contemporary Asian experience of digitalization and sustainable development in economy and management. A review of the book “Business and management in Asia: digital innovation and sustainability” (Springer, 2023)

Entering the markets of Asian countries and developing cooperation with their business structures are important tasks, which makes it relevant to study current trends in economic and management changes in these countries. This work is a review of a book on the Asian experience of digitalization and sustainable development, as well as published by one of the leading international publishing houses. It contains nine chapters, the contents of which are analyzed, summarized and interpreted (where necessary). Basically, the book authors draw attention to the active, but in some places only the initial course of transformations, which not only respond to the current challenges of socio-economic development, but also form fundamentally new ones. The book identifies some features of management practices (at the state and corporate levels) that reflect different approaches to digitalization and acquisition of sustainability, preferred in Asian countries. The inextricable connection of economic and managerial transformations with social development in general is shown. Special attention is paid to the urgent need for personnel (including management personnel) with specific competencies, which has already been encountered in a number of Asian countries. During the review, certain shortcomings of the publication were identified, in particular, the excessive mixing of the “western” and “eastern” visions. Nevertheless, the book is recommended to domestic specialists for a deeper understanding of the economic transformations currently taking place in Asia.

Policy Dialogue: The Meaning and Purpose of Public Education

AbstractPublic education, at least as it has been known for the past several generations in the US, is under threat. Conservative state legislatures from Arizona to Florida have enacted sweeping voucher legislation, channeling taxpayer dollars to private schools. At the same time, a vicious culture war has engulfed the public education system in controversy, creating new political opportunities for ideologues and opponents. In this context, the editorial team at HEQ felt it important to reflect on why we have public schools in the first place. What are they good for and what should be taught? Whom should they serve, and who should govern them?For this policy dialogue, we asked Carol Burris and Johann Neem to discuss the past, present, and future of open-enrollment, taxpayer-supported public schools. Carol Burris is the executive director of the Network for Public Education Foundation and the author of several books. Prior to that role, Dr. Burris was a classroom teacher and a high school principal, earning educator of the year and principal of the year awards. Johann Neem is a professor at Western Washington University and a historian of the early American republic. The author of several books, including Democracy’s Schools: The Rise of Public Education in America, Dr. Neem is also a member of HEQ’s editorial board.HEQ policy dialogues are, by design, intended to promote an informal, free exchange of ideas between scholars. At the end of the exchange, we offer a list of references for readers who wish to follow up on sources relevant to the discussion.

Referencing and Citation in Liber manualis

The ancient people of Egypt or Greece would often cite the works of their predecessors in their own texts, as a way of giving credit and building on existing knowledge. However, the concept of referencing as we know it today, with specific conventions and guidelines for citing sources, has its origins in the academic and scholarly communities of the Middle Ages. Scholars in the Middle Ages would often cite the works of their predecessors to validate their own arguments and to show the continuity of ideas and knowledge. This paper tries to establish the particular way Dhuoda of Septimania, a writer from the 9th century, the author of an advice book, adhere to the tradition of quotation. The analysis shows that the medieval author of Liber manualis cited other writers more informally, appropriate and mnemonic. The paper also stresses the importance Duoda has given to citing sources as a way of valorizing her own work in the light of authority.
