Alireza Mansouri: What Does the Clinical Community vs General Public Think of GBM Clinical Trials?

Alireza Mansouri, Associate Professor at Penn State Health, shared a post on X:

‘Sharing a cool AI-powered project I did with Grok from xAI!

Request: Analyze public and scientific sentiment on clinical trials for Glioblastoma using X data. Break down by user type (general public vs. medical/scientific), exclude pharma conflicts and ads, plus word clouds.

Methodology: Used X semantic search to fetch ~80 relevant posts. Filtered out ads/pharma. Lexicon-based sentiment analysis (positive/negative words like ‘hope’ vs. ‘futile’). Categorized users via profiles. Word clouds from freq counts of key terms. All powered by Grok!

Results: The scientific community is more skeptical about trials than the general community!

General public (55 posts) – 65% positive (hope in immunotherapy/mRNA), 20% negative.

Scientific (25 posts) – 50% positive, 30% negative (critique on ethics/design).

Net positive overall! Key themes: breakthroughs vs. systemic issues.

Word clouds highlight ‘trial’, ‘hope’ For public; ‘survival,’ ‘unethical’ for scientists.”
