Summary
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) offers powerful tools for scientific writing but requires cautious ethical application. This editorial reviews current policies on AI in scientific publishing and outlines JMIR Publications' guidelines.
Area of Science:
- Scientific Publishing
- Artificial Intelligence Ethics
Background:
- Generative AI (artificial intelligence) tools can now draft research questions, refine code, and create scientific text and figures.
- The rapid advancement of AI in content creation raises significant ethical concerns within the scientific publishing community.
Discussion:
- This editorial examines the evolving landscape of editorial policies regarding the use of generative AI and chatbots in scientific manuscript authorship and peer review.
- It details JMIR Publications' specific policies and approach to AI integration in the editorial process.
Key Insights:
- Clear policies are needed to address the ethical implications of AI in scientific manuscript preparation.
- JMIR Publications is actively defining its stance on AI use in authorship, peer review, and editorial workflows.
Outlook:
- The responsible integration of AI in scientific publishing requires ongoing dialogue and policy development.
- Future editorial processes will likely incorporate AI tools, necessitating clear ethical frameworks and guidelines.

Non-equilibrium in the Cell
4.5K
An important concept in studying metabolism and energy is that of chemical equilibrium. Most chemical reactions are reversible. They can proceed in both directions, releasing energy into their environment in one direction, and absorbing it from the environment in the other direction. The same is true for the chemical reactions involved in cell metabolism, such as the breaking down and building up of proteins into and from individual amino acids, respectively. Reactants within a closed system...

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
2.8K
When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...

Modeling in Therapy
119
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.

RNA Editing
9.0K
RNA editing is a post-transcriptional modification where a precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) nucleotide sequence is changed by base insertion, deletion, or modification. The extent of RNA editing varies from a few hundred bases, in mitochondrial DNA of trypanosomes, to a just single base, in nuclear genes of mammals. Even a single base change in the pre-mRNA can convert a codon for one amino acid into the codon for another amino acid or a stop codon. This type of re-coding can significantly affect the...

CRISPR and crRNAs
17.1K
Bacteria and archaea are susceptible to viral infections just like eukaryotes; therefore, they have developed a unique adaptive immune system to protect themselves. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR-associated proteins (CRISPR-Cas) are present in more than 45% of known bacteria and 90% of known archaea.
The CRISPR-Cas system stores a copy of foreign DNA in the host genome and uses it to identify the foreign DNA upon reinfection. CRISPR-Cas has three different...
