Navigating knowledge landscapes: on health, science, communication, media, and society
Open accessAbstract
Today patients are confronted with an increase in complexity of health-related information, including that on medical procedures, data interpretation, and multifaceted therapeutic strategies. At the same time, there is a justified need to simplify information in order to enable patients to make decisions about themselves (1). The patient is indeed the only one in the system who possesses all the information and insights into her/his health and biomedical biography. Health related issues are important not only to patients, but to all citizens who take health into consideration when making everyday lifestyle decisions, such as choice of diet, or physical or social activities. As we live in a society full of opportunities, navigating wisely through them, and making educated decisions, clearly requires more steps than just declaratively empowering the patient by the medical system. An important prerequisite for patient-centered medicine is ensuring that patients can find and make use of high-quality knowledge about science and biomedicine.

In digital society, knowledge is organized in dynamic tentative online infrastructures and made available to users through different search tools and engines and their operative algorithms.
“In the digital society, knowledge is organized in dynamic tentative online infrastructures and made available to users through different search tools and engines and their operative algorithms.”
From Concepts and definitions of health and health-related values in the knowledge landscapes of the digital society (2017) · cites this paper as [19]
The paper’s ‘Empirical analysis and critical methodology’ section says search engines help users find information and that algorithmic authority affects which links appear important. It also describes online tools changing knowledge communication. It does not establish the more specific claim that knowledge is organized in ‘dynamic tentative online infrastructures.’ (LLM, conf=0.78)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDigital society frames, alters, and produces knowledge in a complex way, and individuals need skills to read these continuously changing landscapes critically and navigate them safely.
“This means that digital society frames, alters, and produces knowledge in a complex way, and the individuals today need skills to read these continuously changing landscapes critically and navigate them safely (1,2,19,20).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
