Money and Values: For Healthcare Workers, It ’s Time They Align
By WYNNE ARMAND and CHRISTIAN MEWALDT It shouldn’t be controversial to say that promoting the well-being of patients and our community should be at the core of our decisions in health care — even when competing factors exist. Yet we have grown increasingly uncomfortable to realize that we’ve been investing in companies whose products — including fossil fuels — are at the crux of diseases we treat. In 2018 alone, fossil fuel combustion-produced particulate matter was responsible for an estimated 9 million deaths worldwide, according to a recent publication by researchers from Harvard University an...

On the bias of science: Part three
Okay, we have established that universities, as a class, do not have any agenda or preference for that the outcome of scientific investigations will be. The exceptions, obviously, are institutions like Liberty University, Bob Jones, and Oral Roberts, that deny evolution and cosmologya priori. But at colleges and universities that are not run by religious fanatics, faculty investigators are independent and they pursue their own lines of research, conduct investigations of their design, and interpret the results as they understand them. We have also established that the government does not have any agenda or preference for w...

On the bias of science: Part One
It seems that many people have some fundamental misconceptions about the nature of the scientific enterprise. It is obviously an institution with some flaws -- it ' s a human endeavor and humans are flawed. One of its strengths however, is a proclivity for self-examination. Most errors get corrected reasonably soon, and the culture, norms and policies of scientific institutions have tended to change for the better over time. (Past results are no guarantee of future performance.)Here are some facts that I know because I am inside it. I am on the faculty of a school of public health, which is associated with a medical school...

Redefining what a hospital library should be
Have you ever been to one of those areas in the hospital called“the library” or“the educational/academic center”? No, I ’m not talking about the athenaeum at the universities. The library we are talking about is the one at the teaching hospital specifically dedicated to the education of the trainee residents and fellows.

What ’ s Next For Direct-To-Consumer Genetic Testing
The Human Genome Project, an international scientific cooperation on discovering the human genome, began in 1990. The goal of the undertaking was to identify the DNA sequence of the entire human genome. I was a medical student when the completion of the Human Genome Project was announced in 2003. I assumed, just like everyone else in the medical community, that this would change everything. Two decades have passed since then. And although the scientific progress is still outstanding, genetic testing did not become the new norm in healthcare. I want to know why. I’ve had my genome and microbiome sequenced. I hav...

Did Covid and Telemedicine Finally Make the Physical Exam Obsolete?
By HANS DUVEFELT Left to my own devices, I would be selective about when and how much of a physical exam I do: either not at all or very detailed for just those things that can help me make the diagnosis. I have no patience for boilerplate normal exams. Any doctor who uses the term PERRLA (pupils equal, round, reactive to light and accommodation) is probably faking it. First, most of the time this isn’t actually tested completely and, second, even if it’s done correctly, it has no relevance in the majority of chart notes I have found it in. I have actually seen it in office note templates for urinary tract infection...

The United States Should Welcome Immigrants from China
Alex Nowrasteh andJohn GlaserCompetition with China is dominating America ’s foreign policy discourse in a way reminiscent of Cold War hysteria. Our politics haven’t descended into McCarthyite crusades to purge federal departments of alleged communist infiltrators, but there are already examples of making policy out of paranoia.In addition tofueling wasteful defense spending, fear of China has led policymakers to push for cuts to Chinese immigration. Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) believes dramatically reducing immigration from China is necessary to protect against Chinesespies stealing American secrets. Senator Ted Cruz (R...

In search of an evidence-based approach to occupational therapy practice education that would include simulation experiences
 Simulation is a methodology used to replicate real-world tasks.  Simulation provides experiences that lead to direct learning or that can be used as an assessment of competence.  Such tasks have been used as a primary tactic in occupational therapy and other rehabilitation services since their inception - although they were generally applied in a therapeutic context.  For example, an individual would learn how to dress themselves out of context to develop skill, and then that skill would be transferred to contextual learning.  Sometimes, more esoterically, a simulated activity broken down into com...

Another big grift
Professor Campos takes a long hard look at the economics of higher education. You can read the whole thing if you ' re interested. In a pistachio shell, tuition has risen enormously in the past 40 years, as have total revenues and spending, but the money isn ' t going to instruction. As a matter of fact, more and more teaching is done by low-paid and job insecure adjuncts and non-tenure track faculty. The money is going to more and more highly paid administrators, fancy buildings, athletic programs, and such fol-de-rol. And by the way it is not the case that public subsidies for higher education have declined. They have in...

Financial Stress In Early Adulthood Is Related To Physical Pain Decades Later
By Emily Reynolds Pain is not a purely biological phenomenon: discrimination, anxiety around work, and general mental strain have all been shown to contribute to the experience of chronic pain. Many researchers therefore take a biopsychosocial approach, exploring the multifarious factors that impact on and are impacted by pain. A new study in Stress & Health explores the long term consequences of social factors on pain. The team, from the universities of Georgia and South California, Los Angeles, specifically focus on families involved in the 1980s “farm crisis” in the US Midwest, a period where many lost th...

Should You Have to Pay for Their Truth?
Neal McCluskeySuppose you have an open patch of ground in your yard and you think, “I’d like some flowers. But which ones?” Suddenly a landscaper arrives and says, “Flowers? I’m a landscaper, and the truth is you need weeds. ” An assistant then takes your wallet and gives the landscaper your money, telling you, “Be happy – you just got truth from an expert.”Would your reaction be, “He’s an expert so he can keep the money and I should be grateful ”? Or, “I didn’t ask for this, I still want flowers, and I am calling the police. ”Most people, I suspect, would go with...

Subsidizing Research and Technology

President Biden ’s Jobs Plan similarly proposednew subsidies for research and technology.America faces competitive challenges, but a lack of research spending does not seem to be a weakness.

The Technological Future Of Surgery
“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” This quote by Arthur C. Clarke pretty much sums up the future of surgery. It offers fantastic cooperation between humans and technology, which could elevate the level of precision and efficiency of surgeries so high we have never seen before. A.I., surgical robots, 3D printing and new imaging methods are already used on a wide scale of procedures. But there’s much more to the future of surgery than that.  Today only 3% of surgical procedures are performed by robots, although 15% of all operations used robotic support or assistance in the ...
