Robert Geoffrey Twycross: palliative care physician, pioneer of the modern hospice movement, and staunch opponent of assisted dying 罗伯特-杰弗里-特威克罗斯(Robert Geoffrey Twycross):姑息治疗医生、现代临终关怀运动的先驱、协助死亡的坚定反对者

As befitting someone whose life’s work was to enable patients to have a good death, Robert Twycross had mapped out his own to the last detail. Every aspect of his funeral was planned. The day before he died he was dictating messages to publishers about a forthcoming textbook. He had even told one of his daughters the day he was most likely to die—and he was right. More importantly, says his eldest daughter Alison Twycross, who was with him as he died, his final hours were as he would have advocated. “Dad died very peacefully in a way that I wish everyone could achieve,” she said. “He was ready. He was at home, pain free, and his family were around him—it was a good death.” Apart from Cicely Saunders, founder of the modern hospice movement, “I don’t think there has been anyone else that has made such a sustained and major contribution to palliative care,” said Andew Wilcock, long term mentee, writing partner, and friend. “He leaves a profound legacy that continues to influence how end-of-life care is provided around the world.

罗伯特-特威克罗斯毕生的工作就是让病人死得其所,因此他对自己的葬礼做了详尽的安排。他葬礼的方方面面都计划好了。去世前一天,他还在向出版商口述即将出版的教科书。他甚至告诉了他的一个女儿他最有可能去世的日子--他是对的。更重要的是,他的长女艾莉森-特威克罗斯(Alison Twycross)在他去世时陪伴在他身边,她说,他最后的时光正如他所主张的那样。"她说:"爸爸死得很平静,我希望每个人都能做到这一点。"他已经准备好了。他在家里,没有痛苦,他的家人都在他身边--这是一个美好的死亡。除了现代临终关怀运动的创始人西塞莉-桑德斯(Cicely Saunders)之外,"我认为没有其他人能为姑息治疗做出如此持久而重大的贡献,"长期的导师、写作伙伴和朋友安迪沃-威尔科克(Andew Wilcock)说。"他留下的深厚遗产将继续影响世界各地提供生命末期关怀的方式。无数的病人及其家属......

Training shouldn’t be purgatory: the consultant cardiologist 培训不应是炼狱:心脏病顾问医生
Pub Date : 2024-11-25 DOI: 10.1136/bmj.q2597
Erin Dean
When choosing to specialise in cardiology, Rob Egdell worried that he was taking the easy route as he enjoyed it so much “I dabbled with lots of other complicated things, but always came back to cardiology,” says Rob Edgell. “I was worried that something I enjoyed and found straightforward might get boring. But if you enjoy it, you do it with vigour and energy, and you’re fulfilled by it.” That he made this choice is clearly a relief to the consultant cardiologist at East Cheshire NHS Trust in Macclesfield—he has loved caring for cardiac patients ever since. It also prompts him to recommend to resident doctors that they choose a specialty they enjoy. “Even when you’re focused on the end game of becoming a consultant or a GP, training is a long process and you can’t really go through it as a sort of period of purgatory,” he advises. “You have to enjoy what you’re doing or life feels miserable, and …
在选择专攻心脏病学时,罗布-埃格德尔担心自己会走捷径,因为他非常喜欢这个专业。"我涉足过很多其他复杂的领域,但总是会回到心脏病学,"罗布-埃格德尔说。"我担心我喜欢的、简单明了的事情会变得枯燥乏味。但如果你喜欢它,你就会充满活力和能量地去做,并从中获得满足感"。他的这一选择显然让这位位于麦克尔斯菲尔德(Macclesfield)的东柴郡国家医疗服务系统信托基金会(East Cheshire NHS Trust)的心脏病顾问医生感到欣慰--从那时起,他就爱上了照顾心脏病患者。这也促使他建议住院医生选择自己喜欢的专科。他建议说:"即使你的最终目标是成为一名顾问或全科医生,培训也是一个漫长的过程,你不能把它当作一段炼狱,"他说。"你必须享受你正在做的事情,否则生活就会感到悲惨,......

League tables for the NHS 国家医疗服务体系排名表
Pub Date : 2024-11-22 DOI: 10.1136/bmj.q2606
Nigel Edwards, Mark Dayan
Measures of performance need to be meaningful The secretary of state for health and social care, Wes Streeting, has announced NHS league tables to guarantee “no more rewards for failure” in UK healthcare.1 Under the plan, the worst performing hospitals would have turnaround teams installed and managers sacked, while the best would have more freedom to invest capital.2 This package of measures mirrors the policy approach of the early 2000s. A wealth of evidence from that period suggests this is no easy fix.3 Designing a ranking that is fair and accurate for organisations as huge and complicated as NHS trusts is difficult. Star ratings in the 2000s saw repeated cycles of a crisis of confidence before major revisions and improvements were made.4 Goodhart’s law states that once a measure becomes a target, it stops being a good measure, as managers find ways to hit the target without making anything better.5 Ambulance trusts under star ratings would delay starting the clock for waits and recategorise calls so that standards were …
1 根据该计划,表现最差的医院将成立扭亏为盈小组,管理人员将被解雇,而表现最好的医院将有更大的资本投资自由。2 这一系列措施反映了 2000 年代初的政策方针。3 对于像英国国家医疗服务体系这样庞大而复杂的机构,设计一个公平而准确的排名是非常困难的。4 古德哈特定律(Goodhart's law)指出,一旦一项措施成为目标,它就不再是一项好的措施,因为管理者会想方设法达到目标,而不会使任何事情变得更好。

Tackling digital harms: why simply banning children from social media won’t protect them 应对数字伤害:为什么仅仅禁止儿童接触社交媒体并不能保护他们?
Pub Date : 2024-11-22 DOI: 10.1136/bmj.q2617
Louise Holly
We need to redesign social media and other digital platforms so that these spaces are safer and healthier, writes Louise Holly Across the globe, countries are grabbling with how to shield children from the dangers of the digital world. One idea is to prevent children from accessing the most harmful digital spaces. Australian has just introduced a bill to parliament proposing to ban children under 16 from using social media.1 If passed, it would make Australia the first country in the world to have such strict legislation. Mitigating the physical and mental health risks posed by digital platforms is an urgent public health priority that governments need to engage with, but limiting children’s online participation will not tackle the root causes of these harms. Australia’s proposed law will make it illegal for anyone under 16 to have a social media account and wouldn’t have exemptions for parental consent. Companies such as Meta, ByteDance, and Google will be responsible for checking that users are not under 16 and could face penalties if they fail to comply.2 If the law is passed, it wouldn’t take effect for over a year, …
路易丝-霍利(Louise Holly)写道,我们需要重新设计社交媒体和其他数字平台,让这些空间更安全、更健康。 在全球范围内,各国都在努力研究如何保护儿童免受数字世界的危险。其中一个想法是阻止儿童访问最有害的数字空间。澳大利亚刚刚向议会提交了一项法案,建议禁止 16 岁以下儿童使用社交媒体。1 如果该法案获得通过,澳大利亚将成为世界上第一个拥有如此严格立法的国家。降低数字平台带来的身心健康风险是各国政府亟待解决的公共卫生问题,但限制儿童上网并不能从根本上解决这些问题。澳大利亚提议的法律将规定,任何未满 16 岁的人拥有社交媒体账户都是非法的,并且没有父母同意的豁免条款。Meta、ByteDance 和谷歌等公司将负责检查用户是否未满 16 岁,如果不遵守规定,将面临处罚。2 如果法律获得通过,一年多后才会生效,...

When I use a word . . . Academic fraud—plagiarism 当我使用一个词时 . .学术欺诈-剽窃
Pub Date : 2024-11-22 DOI: 10.1136/bmj.q2627
Jeffrey K Aronson
Of the various types of academic misdemeanours and felonies, perhaps plagiarism is the most difficult and complex to study and write about. Even defining it is difficult. The US Office of Research Integrity (ORI) defines plagiarism as “the appropriation of another person's ideas, processes, results, or words without giving appropriate credit,” but how do you define when it has occurred? What are the quantitative and qualitative thresholds? What are the different types of plagiarism? Why does plagiarism occur? How does one detect it? What is self-plagiarism and should we even call it that? There is an enormous literature on the subject and it needs to be tamed; an annotated bibliography would help, if anyone would create one. Perhaps they already have? The third member of the academic felonies trio, after fabrication and falsification, which I have previously discussed,12 is plagiarism. It may not seem obvious, but the origin of the word “plagiarism” is buried in the hypothetical IndoEuropean root PLĀK, meaning flat. The Greek word πλάξ meant a flat plate, from which we get “placoid” an adjective referring to the type of scale that covers certain cartilaginous fishes, of the order Placoidei, including sharks and rays, now known as Elasmobranchii, ἐλασμός being a beaten out metal plate. Another group of fishes, now extinct, with flat bony plates encasing the head and thorax, went under the name of placoderms. Other flat words that come from the same root include placenta, which in Latin meant a flat cake, and leukoplakia, the flat white precancerous patches that are sometimes seen covering mucous membranes, typically in parts of the mouth and on the vulva, where it is also called lichen sclerosus or kraurosis vulvae (Greek κραῦρος brittle, dry); in men it can affect the penis, when it is known as balanitis xerotica …
在各类学术不端行为和重罪中,也许剽窃是最难研究和撰写的,也是最复杂的。甚至连定义都很困难。美国研究诚信办公室(ORI)将剽窃定义为 "盗用他人的观点、过程、成果或文字而不给予适当的荣誉",但如何界定何时发生了剽窃行为?定量和定性的界限是什么?剽窃有哪些不同类型?为什么会出现剽窃行为?如何发现?什么是自我抄袭,我们是否应该这样称呼它?关于这一主题的文献数量庞大,需要加以整理;如果有人愿意编制注释书目,将会有所帮助。也许他们已经这样做了?学术重罪三人组的第三位成员是剽窃,仅次于我之前讨论过的捏造和篡改12。剽窃 "一词的来源埋藏在假定的印欧语词根PLĀK中,意为平面。希腊语中的πλάξ意为平板,由此我们得到了 "placoid "这个形容词,指的是覆盖在某些软骨鱼类身上的鳞片,属于placoidei目,包括鲨鱼和鳐鱼,现在被称为Elasmobranchii,ἐλασμός是一块打出来的金属板。另一类鱼类现已灭绝,它们的头部和胸部有扁平的骨板,被称为placoderms。其他来源于同一词根的扁平词还包括胎盘(在拉丁语中意为扁平的蛋糕)和白斑病(leukoplakia),白斑病是一种扁平的白色癌前病变斑块,有时会覆盖在粘膜上,通常出现在口腔和外阴部位,在这些部位也被称为硬化性苔藓或外阴干癣(希腊语 κραῦρος brittle,dry);在男性中,白斑病也会影响阴茎,这时被称为干性阴茎炎(balanitis xerotica)......

Acts of dishonesty: why medical students should think twice before acting unethically 不诚实行为:医学生在做出不道德的行为之前应三思而后行的原因
Pub Date : 2024-11-22 DOI: 10.1136/bmj.q2621
Daniel Sokol
The temptations of doctors to act inappropriately are many and well documented. They include, among others, the temptation to put financial gain before patient wellbeing, to cut corners to reduce workload, to cover up errors for self-preservation, to speak ill of patients and colleagues in moments of frustration, and to engage in improper relationships with patients. Far less discussed are the temptations towards wrongdoing of medical students which, although usually less dramatic in nature, are nonetheless rife. Medical students are for the most part high achieving students, accustomed to success and in fear of failure. At medical school, they tend to have one overriding goal, which is to pass their exams and qualify as doctors. The desire to pass is so intense that it leaves them prone to the temptation of wrongdoing in order to secure a pass.

医生受到的不当行为诱惑很多,而且有据可查。其中包括将经济利益置于病人福祉之上、为减少工作量而偷工减料、为自保而掩盖错误、在沮丧时对病人和同事恶语相向,以及与病人发生不正当关系等。医科学生的不法行为虽然通常不那么引人注目,但却比比皆是。医学生大多成绩优异,习惯于成功,害怕失败。在医学院,他们往往有一个压倒一切的目标,那就是通过考试,获得医生资格。通过考试的愿望是如此强烈,以至于他们很容易受到诱惑,为了确保通过考试而做出错误的行为。仅以不诚实行为为例,我曾听医科学生讲过以下几件事......

Chris Hoy and cancer screening: is celebrity campaigning a bad way to make policy? 克里斯-霍伊与癌症筛查:名人竞选是制定政策的糟糕方式吗?
Pub Date : 2024-11-22 DOI: 10.1136/bmj.q2604
Margaret McCartney
The response to the Olympian’s call for wider access to prostate cancer screening has been largely uncritical, Margaret McCartney finds Media coverage has been rightly sympathetic to Chris Hoy, one of the most successful cyclists in history, who recently disclosed that he has metastatic prostate cancer. The press has also taken up Hoy’s call that more men should be tested for the disease. He told the BBC that the age at which men can obtain a prostate specific antigen (PSA) test should be reduced from 50. “It seems a no-brainer,” he said. “Why would they not reduce the age? Bring the age down and allow more men to go in and get a blood test.”1 In a commentary the Independent said that Hoy’s intervention could save thousands of lives: “Some 12 000 men die from prostate cancer each year, many after begging their doctors to be tested—after which they are told they only have months to live. The Olympic cyclist’s call for a rethink of GP screening could be a game-changer.”2 The health and social care secretary, Wes Streeting, told the BBC that Hoy made a “powerful” …
玛格丽特-麦卡特尼(Margaret McCartney)发现,对于这位奥运冠军呼吁更多的人接受前列腺癌筛查,媒体的反应基本上是不加批判的。 克里斯-霍伊是历史上最成功的自行车运动员之一,他最近透露自己患有转移性前列腺癌,媒体对他的报道给予了应有的同情。霍伊呼吁更多的男性接受前列腺癌检测,媒体也响应了他的号召。他告诉英国广播公司(BBC),男性接受前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)检测的年龄应从 50 岁开始降低。"他说:"这似乎没有什么问题。"他们为什么不降低年龄呢?降低年龄,让更多的男性去做血液检测。"1 《独立报》在一篇评论中说,霍伊的干预措施可以挽救成千上万人的生命:"每年约有 12 000 名男性死于前列腺癌,其中许多人是在乞求医生进行检查后被告知只能活几个月。这位奥运自行车运动员呼吁重新考虑全科医生的筛查,这可能会改变游戏规则。"2 卫生和社会保健大臣韦斯-斯泰廷告诉英国广播公司,霍伊提出了 "强有力的"......

The press has also taken up Hoy’s call that more men should be tested for the disease. He told the BBC that the age at which men can obtain a prostate specific antigen (PSA) test should be reduced from 50. “It seems a no-brainer,” he said. “Why would they not reduce the age? Bring the age down and allow more men to go in and get a blood test.”1 In a commentary the Independent said that Hoy’s intervention could save thousands of lives: “Some 12 000 men die from prostate cancer each year, many after begging their doctors to be tested—after which they are told they only have months to live. The Olympic cyclist’s call for a rethink of GP screening could be a game-changer.”2 The health and social care secretary, Wes Streeting, told the BBC that Hoy made a “powerful” …","PeriodicalId":22388,"journal":{"name":"The BMJ","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142684613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tom Nolan reviews this week’s research When it comes to peripherally inserted lines for outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT), where should one draw the line? Midline catheters, which end in peripheral veins, are thought to offer lower risks of infection and thromboembolism than peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs). A new cohort study supports this, finding that, for a device dwell of 14 days or less, midline catheters were associated with a lower risk of major complications (0.9% v 5.3%, adjusted hazard ratio 0.29 (95% CI 0.12 to 0.68)). However, the study design means that confounding by indication—whereby lower risk patients received a midline catheter—is hard to measure and exclude.

汤姆-诺兰(Tom Nolan)回顾本周研究 当谈到用于门诊肠外抗菌治疗(OPAT)的外周插入管路时,应该在哪里划线?与外周置入中心静脉导管(PICC)相比,末端位于外周静脉的中线导管被认为具有更低的感染和血栓栓塞风险。一项新的队列研究证实了这一点,该研究发现,在设备停留时间为 14 天或更短的情况下,中线导管发生重大并发症的风险较低(0.9% 对 5.3%,调整后危险比为 0.29(95% CI 0.12 至 0.68))。然而,研究设计意味着很难测量和排除适应症的混杂因素,即风险较低的患者接受中线导管。JAMA Intern Med doi:10.1001/jamainternmed.2024.5984 社论建议,不要等到前列腺癌确诊后才考虑预期寿命 ...
