Digital Science identifies questionable research at heart of US abortion drug case

A Digital Science investigation into a series of research papers used in a high-profile abortion drug case in the United States has found that the articles breached publication ethics and used unreliable methods.

The published research was considered in Texas federal court in 2023, in the case of Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, et al vs the Federal Drug Administration. This case, aimed at overturning FDA approval of the abortion drug Mifepristone, will now be heard in the US Supreme Court in March.

Sage Publishing has this week announced that two of the papers used in the court case – published in the journal Health Services Research and Managerial Epidemiology – have been retracted, along with another paper, following an investigation that identified concerns about:

  • Conflicts of interest
  • Problems with peer review
  • Statistical issues
  • Lack of academic rigor.

Among the concerns raised by Sage were “fundamental problems” with study design and methodology, “unjustified or incorrect factual assumptions”, “material errors” in analysis, “misleading presentations of the data”, undisclosed conflicts of interest among authors and a peer reviewer, and “unreliable” peer review and study conclusions.

Digital Science has published its own findings in a post on its website. These include comparisons of the research papers used in the legal case, showing they did not match up to the world’s best research in the field, or the top journals publishing that research, identified with the use of Dimensions data. There was also a lack of adherence to academic standards and ethical practices, such as non-disclosure of multiple conflicts of interest among authors.

Dr Leslie McIntosh, Digital Science’s VP Research Integrity, says: “Because of our interest in research integrity, we felt this court case was worthy of further investigation, in which we asked ourselves: How were scientific papers and science presented and used as evidence? When science is incorrectly used – specifically in the case of law – there may be far-reaching consequences. 

“What we would have expected: The strongest research on mifepristone, published in quality journals, with rigorous peer reviews and any conflicts of interests described. What we found, however, did not meet these standards.

“If the court system utilizes scholarly articles to establish scientific truths, then it relies on a system that may be vulnerable to influence by stakeholders who aim to advance their agendas rather than advancing impartial science.

“This issue highlights that more must be done to detect and prevent the manipulation or misuse of science and conflicts of interest in the courts.

“Through their diligence, Sage Journals is correcting the scientific record, and I commend them for their integrity.”

New Springer Nature Transformative Agreements Widen Global Impact of U.S. Research

Springer Nature has reached new Transformative Agreements (TAs) with VIVA – Virginia’s academic library consortium – and OhioLINK, Ohio’s academic library consortium, that will boost open science, increase coverage for underserved researchers, break down barriers to access for funding, and broaden the reach and support for open access (OA) publishing in the United States. New TAs with VIVA and OhioLINK will contribute a 100% increase in articles covered under Springer TAs in the Americas in 2024, with that number expected to continue to rise as more agreements are concluded.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Biden administration issued the Nelson memo, ordering all U.S. agencies to ensure immediate public access to federally-funded research publications in a step toward a fully OA U.S. In the effort to follow through on the Nelson memo, TAs have proven to be the most effective approach to achieving immediate OA for all primary research. This is because TAs consolidate subscription fees expended by libraries for access to reading paywalled journals and article processing charges (APCs) expended by authors to publish OA, into one agreement with an eye to cost-control and the scholarly transition to OA. 

A recent Springer Nature OA case study featuring three U.S. institutions – Carnegie Mellon, the University of California, and the Statewide California Electronic Library Consortium (SCELC), provides evidence of how TAs help to magnify the impact of researchers’ work. At the University of California alone, OA articles published by University of California authors through the Springer TA in 2021 and 2022, were downloaded more than 3.6 million times worldwide – a 120% increase over the previous year, prior to the Springer TA.

The Springer Nature case study offers additional insights into the U.S.’s OA journey. One of the most salient, is that research faculty are integral to the scholarly ecosystem and play an important role in maintaining the integrity of research and creating global impact. The greater visibility TAs provide to such researchers are an added benefit to this consequential community. Driving this point home, panelists discussing TAs at the 2023 Charleston Library Conference – a national November gathering of academic librarians, noted that the driving factor behind TAs are researchers themselves choosing to publish OA.

Carrie Webster, Vice President of Open Access at Springer Nature, said: “TAs drive equity by allowing researchers who would not have enough funding otherwise, to instantly publish their articles open access in journals of their choosing. Open access articles are more frequently read and cited than those published behind paywalls and allow researchers to conduct collaborative research internationally. The primary catalyst of transformative agreements is the decision of researchers to publish open access.”

Amy Pawlowski, Executive Director at OhioLINK, said: “We are very happy to work with Springer to both expand access to Ohio’s scholarship and remove barriers to research and learning.”

Genya O’Gara, Acting VIVA Director, said: “We’re pleased to collaborate with Springer on this new agreement, aimed at significantly expanding the reach of Virginia’s research and scholarship while enhancing Virginia authors’ access to publishing opportunities. This partnership underscores VIVA’s dedication to providing equitable publishing opportunities for researchers in Virginia and ensuring access to learning materials for all students, irrespective of their institution.” 

Also of significance, is that the wider reach Springer Nature TAs provide for US research globally – supporting the OA standing of publications at more than 3,500 institutions worldwide – should be seen as a competitive national advantage, helping the U.S. to maintain an edge on innovation.

All journals open access in 2024 following successful Subscribe To Open round

EMS Press publishes all journals open access in 2024, with a blend of S2O and Diamond models.

EMS Press is delighted to announce that all 22 journals in its Subscribe To Open (S2O) programme will be published as open access for the 2024 subscription period. This means that for the first time the Press’s annual journal output will be entirely open access, with a blend of S2O and Diamond publications. 

The following journals have met the Press’s criteria for sustainable publication and will publish all 2024 issues open access under a CC-BY licence: 

André Gaul, CEO, comments “to be able to transform the publishing house from a traditional subscription journals business to a fully open access one in under 5 years is a tremendous success for the whole team, and a real win for the wider mathematical community. Year after year we see strong support from our subscriber base for this approach, and as the significant drawbacks of article processing charges [APCs] are brought to the fore, we are confident in our approach to deliver a fair and equitable future for open access mathematics.”

EMS Press once again utilised its unique “solidarity model” which distributes shared package revenues to support titles with lower incomes, thus allowing them to achieve their sustainability thresholds. The team will then work to make these titles independently sustainable in future years. The model has been updated for the 2024 calculation to allow flexible packages – a revised version can be accessed here

Details of the 2025 S2O round will be announced later this year. In the meantime we ​​encourage libraries, consortia, funders and other national groups to get in touch if they would like to hear more about how they can proactively support the S2O initiative.

RSC signs new open access scheme with 77 German institutions

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) and the TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology and University Library, which is the German national library for science and technology, have signed a new open access ‘Platinum model’ agreement. The four-year deal provides unlimited RSC publishing services – including submission, peer-review, hosting, indexing and promotion – to authors and readers at 77 German research institutions without charge.

All academic and research institutions can participate in this new consortium model, including those that do not publish. Furthermore, under a renewal of the agreement that will begin in 2028, all content will be fully open access (OA) and authors from participating institutions can publish without author charges.

The fact that 77 institutions have signed on to this new RSC Platinum consortium model means that the vast majority of the publications in RSC journals from German institutions will be OA. This represents a significant upgrade over the RSC’s previous Read & Publish consortium with TIB, which covered just 31 German institutions and approximately 45% of research articles from Germany.

‘We hope that the success of this collaborative model in Germany will serve as a template by which we can develop similar models in other countries to ensure the costs of publication in an OA world are distributed across relevant stakeholders and not the sole responsibility of research-intensive institutions – or individual authors,’ stated Sara Bosshart, the RSC’s head of open access.

Irina Sens, TIB’s deputy director and head of library operations, said that over the next four years the new agreement will help all parties to transition from ‘the current hybrid model’ to a fully OA model. ‘With the entire portfolio covered for the first time, this deal also allows authors to choose their RSC publication venue irrespective of financial considerations,’ she added.

IOP Publishing joins OA Switchboard to streamline open access reporting 

As part of their ongoing commitment to open science, IOP Publishing (IOPP) is joining the OA Switchboard to make it easier for institutional customers to manage open access (OA) agreements. The partnership will enable academic institutions and research funding organisations to monitor information relating to OA research outputs via a central information hub.  

Institutions and funders with access to the OA Switchboard will now be automatically notified when an OA article has been published in an IOPP journal or partner journal. This will improve the visibility of published OA research and enables institutions and funders to report on OA publication data from all participating publishers in one place and format.  

The OA Switchboard is designed to address the increasingly complex network of OA agreements between publishers and institutions, along with a rise in the number of policies developed by research funding organisations, which makes managing OA data difficult. 

IOPP’s OA journal output published as part of an OA agreement continues to grow and has doubled in 2023 compared to the previous year.  

Julian Wilson, Chief Sales Officer at IOPP says: “The OA Switchboard initiative supports us on our journey to make OA a reality by simplifying the sharing and reporting of journal information throughout the entire publishing process. It is OA infrastructure like this that really helps materialise open science” 

Yvonne Campfens, Executive Director at the OA Switchboard comments: “We are delighted for IOPP to come on board and become part of the OA Switchboard which offers a one-stop-shop for information sharing among stakeholders, cutting down transactional costs for everyone involved while offering a secure environment for publication metadata. It is designed to operate and integrate with all stakeholder systems.” 

IOPP’s partnership with the OA Switchboard starts early 2024 and will initially be applied for a year after which the benefits will be reviewed to assess if further efficiencies can be achieved.  

Silverchair’s AI Lab Launches Prototypes to Transform Science Communication

Silverchair announced today the launch of the new AI Lab with several AI-powered features: a content discovery and recommendation tool that creates new ways for users to interact with content using RAG frameworks; SilverChat, which acts as a personal Silverchair Platform expert for clients; and, AI-generated summaries that make research findings more accessible by generating plain-language explanations of scholarly journal articles. 

Silverchair is pleased to launch the first prototypes from Silverchair’s AI Lab to its clients. These features are the first in a series of pilots to explore the most effective applications of AI for scholarly publishing platforms, and how the potential of AI can be harnessed to transform how users discover and interact with high-value content.

Stuart Leitch, Silverchair CTO said, “We’ll use the AI Lab to transparently test and pilot potential AI solutions with our clients. Silverchair has always been committed to community feedback and collaboration, and our AI strategies are no different: we will learn from what works, what doesn’t work, and what gaps in the research lifecycle we might make more efficient using AI.”

The first prototypes launched from the AI Lab include:

  • AI-Generated Summaries (beta): Making research findings more accessible, this tool generates automated plain-language abstracts of articles so they can be easily understood by non-expert readers. AI-Generated Summaries have great potential impact on science communication and literacy, expanding the reach of the valuable content hosted on the Silverchair Platform. The tool is built leveraging GPT’s powerful functionality via an API so that publishers can maintain their brand and content security while supporting the usability of science for the public.
  • SilverChat (beta): SilverChat acts as a client’s personal platform expert, helping publishers get the most out of the Silverchair Platform Tools. The internal teams at Silverchair have been using SilverChat for months, building its knowledge of Silverchair’s User Guides, content specifications, and other platform documentation. SilverChat will deliver easy-to-navigate and streamlined client support and represents Silverchair’s commitment to making the platform user friendly and self-serve for publisher partners.
  • Dynamic Discovery (in development): This feature offers new ways for users to interact with research content, using RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) frameworks. With generative chat functionality, this tool will pull specifically from a publisher’s content library to answer user questions and link to cited content as well as recommend additional content. This dynamic search and query process fundamentally shifts how users find answers to questions and represents the next generation of content discovery while preserving (and enhancing) the value of the version of record.

Each of these tools is a valuable step toward ensuring AI is applied to scholarly publishing in a way that meets publisher and user needs. 

“AI will change how scholarly and scientific knowledge is created and delivered to the world,” said Silverchair CEO Will Schweitzer. “These technologies have incredible promise and many potential pitfalls, and as an independent technology partner with more than three decades in this industry, we’re committed to working with our clients to co-create an AI future for scholarly publishing.”

Emilie Delquié, SVP of Product and Customer Success, added: “With so many ideas and a fast-moving technology, one of our top priorities will be bringing our clients along with us on the journey. We are having in-depth conversations about AI-readiness and priorities, and those conversations fuel our prototypes to ensure that what we’re building meets the needs of our industry.”

There will be much more to come from Silverchair’s AI Lab throughout the year. Other alpha experiments have included translation and accessibility tools, quiz generation, and additional applications of RAG functionality. For updates from Silverchair’s AI Lab, sign up for our AI Newsletter
