Data Democracy! ‘Dr. Google’ (2023) Vs. ‘Every Man His Own Physician’ (1767)
BY MICHAEL MILLENSON
In the 18th-century, a pre-Google guide offered democratization of medical information
In 1767, as American colonists’ protestations against “taxation without representation” intensified, a Boston publisher reprinted a book by a British doctor seemingly tailor-made for the growing spirit of independence.
Talk about “democratization of health care information,” “participatory medicine” and “health citizens”! Every Man His Own Physician, by Dr. John Theobald, bore an impressive subtitle: Being a complete collection of efficacious and approved remedies for every disease...

Br J Nurs. 2023 Mar 9;32(5):S16-S22. doi: 10.12968/bjon.2023.32.5.S16.ABSTRACTTwo-thirds of patients with advanced cancer have pain and, of these, approximately 10-20% do not respond to conventional pain management approaches. This case study concerns a hospice patient who received intrathecal drug delivery for intractable cancer pain at the end of life.

Understanding discrepancies in a person's fear of movement and avoidance behaviour: a guide for musculoskeletal rehabilitation clinicians who support people with chronic musculoskeletal pain
J Orthop Sports Phys Ther. 2023 Mar 8:1-29. doi: 10.2519/jospt.2023.11420. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Generic self-report measures do not reflect the complexity of a person's pain-related behaviour. Since variations in a person's fear of movement and avoidance behaviour may arise from contextual and motivational factors, a person-centred evaluation is required-addressing the cognitions, emotions, motivation and actual behaviour of the person. CLINICAL QUESTION: Most musculoskeletal rehabilitation clinicians will recognise that different people with chronic pain have very different patterns of fear and avoida...
