π we leveraged a large language model (ChatGPT-like) approach to identify infrequent circumstances preceding female firearm suicide deaths in unstructured coroner/medical examiner and law enforcement incident narrative data (e.g., sleep problems, dementia, sexual violence).

Our large language model approach outperformed a conventional NLP/supervised machine learning approach by a wide margin. πThis suggests that large language models can be used to unlock textual analysis in public health research. @lauracprater

I mentioned that our firearm homicide rate is more than 100x higher than that of England Wales. But high firearm homicides drive up our overall homicide rate, making the US a stark outlier among developed nations.

A sobering thread π (although not surprising). We have much work to do across multiple determinants of health.

NEW: Iβm not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got.

And some utterly damning charts.
1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

Certain machine learning algorithms performed better than others. But our experience demonstrated the need to balance resource-intensive NLP dev w/ other approaches for public health practice. We thank @GunResearch for supporting this research.
More findings forthcoming!

In this @Health_Affairs Forefront article, we discuss the potential policy implications of public detachment and desensitization to firearm violence, as well as evidence and recommendations for policy researchers, media, and clinicians. π

In their new Forefront article, @evangoldstein @lauracprater of @UUtah @UW discuss how firearm violence in the US the endless stream of media coverage about firearm violence may be fatiguing the US public to remain politically activated. #GunControl bit.ly/3EuHQjT
