Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Nurses know how to speak up. We bring powerful voices forward for justice, historically and currently, in all manner of forums local, regional, national, and global. However, we have not coalesced in any substantive way around the current global polycrisis of growing and blatant rights violations at the hands of governments’ alt-Right promotion of unfettered capitalism and hatred of marginalized and racialized peoples. This editorial provides a description of Left, socialist politics and Right-alt-Right politics for nursing, with a call for nurses to join mobilization for Left politics to confront the global polycrisis of vast inequitable and widening global economic and social inequalities and climate emergency.

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.
