Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Despite tremendous progress in women's health care, there is a paucity of literature and little emphasis or funding for research on health and the lesbian woman. Lesbians are frequently an invisible subset in a physician's practice and, if the sexual practices of an individual are unknown or assumed, medical management may be compromised. Physicians' attitudes, especially homophobia or heterosexism, can affect the care of their patients. With education on sexuality, sensitivity skills that promote bias-free histories and full disclosure can be achieved. Once a woman's sexual orientation is known, her care can be appropriately modified only if the physician has knowledge about lesbian culture and lifestyle in order to take an appropriate sexual history. Education and enlightenment of attitudes toward sexuality among healthcare providers is the first step towards improving care for lesbian patients. Next is research to identify the preventive healthcare needs within this group of women. This article reviews the current literature surrounding issues involved with the care of lesbian patients.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
