Ischemic heart disease appears to be substantially different in women and men, and it is time to devise sex-specific strategies for detecting and assessing it.

A message from the Spine Patient Outcomes Research Trial (SPORT) could be that the artful judgment of a seasoned clinician, with patient input, may actually be a valid way to make decisions.
Mathews, Manu
- You have accessAtypical antipsychotics: New drugs, new challengesManu Mathews, MD and David J. Muzina, MDCleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine August 2007, 74 (8) 597-606;
Second-generation antipsychotic, or atypical, drugs are much less likely than typical antipsychotics to cause movement disorders, but they come with a new variety of side effects, particularly metabolic ones.

The Spine Patient Outcomes Research Trial compared surgical and nonsurgical treatment in patients with radicular pain. The treatments were equivalent on intention-to-treat analysis, but up to 40% of patients in each group “crossed over” to the other treatment, muddying the results.

Should we treat all patients with hepatitis B virus infection to prevent liver cancer? Which is the best treatment strategy? What should we do if patients develop resistance to our current drugs? Should we treat patients who already have developed cirrhosis?
