The craft of medicine

2 weeks ago | journals.sagepub.com | Kamran Abbasi

Is it possible to get antibiotic prescribing right, to balance the needs of patients and the push to reduce antibiotic prescribing? In the prevailing climate of financial austerity and plunging global financial markets, every cost and investment is being scrutinised. This doesn’t much help clinicians in primary care who need to decide whether or not to prescribe an antibiotic. Often, too, patients are adamant that an antibiotic is what they need and that it has helped them in the past.
The impact of COVID-19 on participation in Australia’s National Bowel Cancer Screening Program by people with severe mental illness: A national data linkage study - Claudia Bull, Katrina Spilsbury, David Lawrence, Karinna I. Saxby, Steve Kisely, 2025

IntroductionAustralia’s National Bowel Cancer Screening Program (NBCSP) provides biennial primary screening for colorectal cancer (CRC). Since 2006, Australians aged 50–74 years have been invited to participate in the NBCSP using an immunochemical faecal occult blood test (iFOBT) via the national postal service (Nickson et al., 2023).
The cost of editorial independence, and the free speech it supports, is eternal vigilance

2 weeks ago | journals.sagepub.com | Jeffrey CL Looi |Gin S Malhi |Steve Kisely

Editorial independence safeguards the rights of authors and readers to freely speak and be heard (Brakoulias and Malhi, 2024; Hoey, 2008; Looi et al., 2024b). This underpins the key goals of medical journals to strive for academic excellence and progress the science of care (Malhi and Brakoulias, 2022). It is enacted by editors having freedom to make decisions about the scientific publication record (Bhui et al., 2025).
To quit quietly or not to quit quietly, that is the existential question

2 weeks ago | journals.sagepub.com | Kamran Abbasi

Quiet quitting is a concept that you might not have heard of. It refers, in its simplest sense, to opting out of tasks beyond assigned duties and/or being less invested in work.1 It’s a post-pandemic phenomenon and isn’t at all confined to healthcare. But you can see that if healthcare professionals become quiet quitters, how this might adversely affect delivery of care and therefore patient wellbeing. The response seems to be one of focusing on Maslow’s hierarchy of human needs.

Bad decision making on Earth and in space

4 weeks ago | journals.sagepub.com | Kamran Abbasi

Space, the final medical frontier, holds a particular fascination. Aside from the wonder, space exploration has offered potential for scientific advance. That is until Elon Musk assumed the role of space invader in chief. Our current notions of exploring space and exploring the implications of advances in science and healthcare1 are obscured by the dust clouds of Musk’s anti-science agenda on Earth. Science is a complex business. No study is perfect. Few study results provide a definitive answer.
