Editing Searching public knowledge

{{Topic Infobox}}
Public knowledge resources can make a good starting point, e.g. to identify interventions one can try and that are likely to work. This wiki can be a starting point by browsing topics of interest and visiting the links in the articles find basic common knowledge about a given topic from the perspective of health tracking. 

The most reliable source of information (besides your doctor), is from the government.<ref>https://medlineplus.gov/</ref> When searching add 'site:.gov' to the end of your query. Wikipedia is less reliable.     

Additionally, it might be worth looking for more details or the cutting edge of science for interventions. Or maybe not?<ref>https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/fFY2HeC9i2Tx8FEnK/my-resentful-story-of-becoming-a-medical-miracle</ref> Depending on the topic in question there might be communities which compile such detailed information, e.g. the communities [[Tools for Cognitive Testing|rNootropics]] and [[Diet tracking tools|rNutrition]] compile great lists of research conducted and advice. Formal research papers are difficult. Search for metanalyses because they are a compilation of other studies. Use advanced search tools like ontologies.<ref>www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/68008568</ref> Depending on the topic and specific question, it may be bad to rely solely on epidemiological studies without looking at other types of studies.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/nutrition/comments/tby2ye/about_scientific_studies_on_nutrition_from_a/</ref>

https://elicit.org GPT-3 Powered. Transforms every sentence into every other relevant sentence so user does not need to rephrase anything. Also gives the exact sentence that answers the user's question.  

* What is the impact of creatine on cognition?
* Does mindfulness improve decision-making?
* What are the effects of sleep training on infants?
consensus.app like elicit. will also suggest citations for your statements.

https://examine.com Search name of diet supplement get summary and all papers on the subject. recommended by LW guy too.

== Knowledge Graphs ==
Knowledge graphs link information through triplets. Nodes can be topics like "supplement", which could be connected to a node like "disease" with an edge that says "reduces chance". This would mean that some supplement reduces chance of some disease. The biomindmap.com tool is a "collaborative knowledge manager" <ref>[https://biomindmap.com/nodes/1399 https://biomindmap.com/nodes/620]</ref>. To contribute you must read the abstracts of the papers supporting each link. Be careful though, the highest rated herb for improving cognition actually reduces stress. Curedao<ref>studies.curedao.org/variables/Cognitive_Speed_Score_From_Lumosity</ref> uses user contributed data instead of papers. 

=== Biomedical Knowledge Graphs ===
These knowledge graphs are designed for researchers, doctors and precision medicine<ref>https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.03.12.21253461v3.full</ref> and not specifically for Personal Science and might be harder to navigate. These graph databases mention their sources of information like "clinicaltrials.gov".
