Why this version exists

Editorial pass: sharper headline; gain/problem restated as concrete outcomes.

The exact text we saved

This is the version exactly as it was saved, character for character. The SHA-256 hash below is a 64-character code worked out from that text. Run the same text through SHA-256 and you get the same code; change a single letter and the code comes out completely different. Each version also stores the previous version’s hash, which chains them together so no version can be swapped out quietly.

headline: Attitudes and Perceptions of Generative Artificial Intelligence Chatbots in the Scientific Process of Traditional, Complementary, and Integrative Medicine Research: A Large-Scale, International Cross-Sectional Survey
dek: Background Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) chatbots have shown utility in assisting with various research tasks. Traditional, complementary, and integrative medicine (TCIM) is a patient-centric approach that emphasizes holistic well-being. The integration of TCIM and GenAI presents numerous key opportunities. However, TCIM researchers' attitudes toward GenAI tools remain less understood. This large-scale, international cross-sectional survey aimed to elucidate the attitudes and perceptions of TCIM res…

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page

Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1174 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
