Some first-year medical students were attending their first Anatomy class. They gathered around a table where a real dead body had been placed for study. The professor began the class by telling them that every good doctor must have two important qualities. “The first,” he said, “is that a doctor must never be disgusted by anything in the human body.” To demonstrate, he inserted his finger into the dead body’s anus, then put the same finger in his mouth and tasted it. He then asked the students to repeat what he had done. The students were shocked and hesitated for several minutes. But eventually, one by one, they did the same thing. Each of them inserted their fingers into the body’s anus and then tasted their fingers. When everyone had finished, they all stood there frowning and feeling uncomfortable. The professor then looked at them and smiled. “The second most important quality of a doctor,” he said, “is observation.” He continued, “I inserted my middle finger, but I tasted my index finger.” Moral lesson: Always pay attention and learn to observe carefully.

A screening test for a disease has very high sensitivity but relatively low specificity. If the prevalence of the disease decreases substantially in the population being screened, what happens to the positive predictive value?

The case is still open. The clock is not. So the feet start negotiating. One Croc. Then the other. A stool that isn’t a chair. A gown that hides the shift but not the burn. Nobody films the anastomosis. They film the part the textbook skips — hours on tile, weight hopping, calves on strike. This is a small part of what standing in an OR actually costs. Not weakness. Just physics, and a shift that doesn’t sit down.

💔 Another young doctor gone too soon. Dr. Raj Nilesh Yadav, 31, an Anaesthesia resident at AIIMS Jodhpur, was reportedly found dead while on duty. Police are investigating the death as a suspected suicide. Allegations of repeated 36-hour shifts raise serious concerns about the working conditions of resident doctors. Doctors are humans, not machines. 36-hour continuous duties should never be normalised.

A viral claim suggests that men who ejaculate more frequently might have a lower risk of developing prostate cancer. Some observational studies have found an association between higher ejaculation frequency and lower risk, but that does NOT mean having sex exactly 21 times a month prevents cancer. • Sexual frequency is not a medical "prescription." Prostate health depends on many factors, and the evidence needs to be interpreted carefully. Had you heard this before?
