Publications trends in major anesthesiology journals: A 20-year analysis of five top-ranked journals in the field by Stefan Koppert in Journal of Clinical and Medical Images, Case Reports  

Abstract

Background: With the intention to quantify the importance of a medical journal, the impact factor (IF) was introduced. It has become a de facto fictive rating instrument of the importance of medical journals. Also, it is often used to assess the value of the individual publications within the specific journal. The aim of the present study was to analyze publication trends over 20 years in five high-ranked anesthesiology journals.

Methods: The Medline (NCBI) database PubMed was used for analysis which was restricted to the following journals: 1. Anesthesiology; 2. British Journal of Anaesthesia; 3. Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology; 4. Anesthesia & Analgesia; and 5. Anaesthesia. Specific publication parameters (IFs, number of pages and authors, etc.) were retrieved using the PubMed download function and imported into Microsoft Excel for further analysis.

Results: The mean IF of the five journals analyzed increased significantly within the study period (1991 vs. 2010; +61.81%). However, the absolute number of case reports decreased significantly by 54.7% since 1991. The journals Br J Anaesth (12.2%), J Neurosurg Anesthesiol (51.9%), and Anesth Analg (57.2%) showed significant increases in the number of publications per year. The mean number of authors increased significantly in all the journals from 1991 to 2010 (3.0 vs. 4.3; +43.3%).

 Conclusions: The IF, as well as the number of articles per year and the number of authors per article, increased significantly. In contrast, the number of pages per article remained comparable during the period analyzed.

Keywords: Impact factor; scientific publication; scientific journal; publication trend.

Introduction

The scientific productivity of a institution or person in medical research is reflected by the number of published articles [1]. However, both medical science and publication options have changed dramatically over the last several years. Publishing medical data in the new open access journals (OAJs) and via the World Wide Web (WWW) has gained significant importance recently. Although the classic printed journal was the standard for any years, it is now easily possible to publish peer-reviewed medical work without printing on paper. Publishing scientific medical papers remains the standard in medicine with regard to scientific reputation.

 To quantify the importance of a medical paper, the impact factor (IF) was introduced by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI, Thomson Scientific/Thomson Corporation, New York, NY, USA) in the 1960s [2]. The IF is a citation index calculated for a specific journal by dividing the number of citations within the last two years by the number of articles published [3, 4]. Therefore, it is a fictive instrument to rate the quality of a journal and the importance of an article because it is published within a specific journal [5]. The IF is relevant in medical research because it significantly impacts publication practice [6] and it has also gained enormous significance for research department funding [3]. The aim of the present study was to analyze the publication trends over 20 years in five high-ranked anesthesiology journals in Medline/PubMed [7]. We focused primarily on delineating trends in the IFs of each journal, as well as the numbers, types, and characteristics of each publication.

Material and Methods

Journals

The Medline (National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI, Rockville Pike, MD, USA) database PubMed (http://www.pubmed.com) was used for analysis [7]. Five high-ranked anesthesiology journals (excluding pain medicine), according to the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI, Thomson Scientific, Rockville Pike, MD, USA), were identified using InCites™ [2]. These top-ranked journals were selected by the highest IF in 2010. The IFs of these journals were gathered to analyze the trend in IF for each journal during the period from 1991 to 2010 [2]. Further analysis was restricted to the following journals: 1. Anesthesiology; 2. British Journal of Anaesthesia (Br J Anaesth); 3. Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology (J Neurosurg Anesthesiol); 4. Anesthesia & Analgesia (Anesth Analg); and 5. Anaesthesia.

Data acquisition

For specific data analysis, the following publication information was recorded in the following data sets:

country of origin;

article type (i.e., randomized, controlled trial [RCT], clinical trial, comparative study, or case report);

number of articles per year and journal [n];

number of pages per article [n]; and

number of authors per article [n].

Letters to the editor, editorials, and comments were excluded from the analysis because they are not necessarily based on scientific, peer-reviewed data. All published articles from these journals were gathered by direct data import from PubMed via Microsoft Excel® 2003 (Microsoft, Redmond, WA, USA) for each year (1991-2010) and for each of the five journals (search string; e.g., "Anesthesiology"[Journal] AND ("2006/01/01"[PDAT]: "2006/12/31"[PDAT]). Data were retrieved using the PubMed download function (XML data format; “Extensible Markup Language“) and were imported into Microsoft Excel for further analysis.

Statistical analysis

Descriptive statistics were performed by using Microsoft Excel® 2003. The t-test and the Chi²-test were used for the statistical analysis. A value of p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Results

Impact factor analysis

Trends in the IF for each journal and year over the 20-year time frame (1991-2010) were gathered (Figure 1). During this period, the IFs of all journals increased (2.249 in 1991 vs. 3.639 in 2010; i.e., +61.81%). The IF of J Neurosurg Anesthesiol increased from 0.638 in 1992 to 2.205 in 2010, i.e., +245%. The smallest increase was +46.03% for Anesth Analg (from 1991 to 2010)

Country of origin

A total of 42,549 articles, containing 183,763 pages written by 154,437 authors, were found between January 1, 1991, and December 31, 2010, in the five journals. Among these articles, the greatest numbers of publications were submitted from the US (31.05%; Table 1), followed by the UK (13.64%), Japan (9.24%), Germany (7.68%), and France (6.22%).

Table 1: Country of origin, number of publications, and resulting rank (1991 to 2010).

Article type

The absolute number of comparative studies and randomized, controlled trials (RCT) was comparable between 1991 and 2010 (Figure 2) with minor changes during that time-frame. The number of case reports also varied from year to year; however, the absolute number of case reports decreased significantly by 45.8% between 2003 and 2010 and by 54.7% between 1991 and 2010 (p<0.0001; Figure 2).

Figure 2: Publication types (case reports, comparative studies, and randomized controlled trials [RCTs]).

Articles per year

During the time frame analyzed, the mean number of articles per year in each journal [n] was 425±226. Altogether, 42,549 articles were published in the five journals. Anesth Analg (n=14,085 of 42,549; 33.1%) published the most articles, followed by Anesthesiology (23.4%), Anaesthesia (22.5%), Br J Anaesth (18.6%), and J Neurosurg Anesthesiol (2.4%). In Anesthesiology, the mean number of articles published per year was 498.8±67.6 (maximum n=628 in 1999; Figure 3). Compared to 1991, the number of articles per year decreased by 5.0% in this journal until 2010 (p=0.009). In Anaesthesia, a decrease of 45.1% (p<0.0001) in the mean number of articles published was also observed between 1991 and 2010. In contrast, the journals Br J Anaesth (+12.2%; p=0.816), J Neurosurg Anesthesiol (+51.9%; p<0.0001), and Anesth Analg (+57.2%; p<0.0001) all showed increases in the numbers of publications per year.

Pages per article

Although the mean number of pages per article (4.3±1.4) did not change between 1991 and 2010 (Figure 4; p>0.05), there were variations among the years. In the Br J Anaesth only, the pages per article remained stable during the time frame analyzed (p>0.05). In the other journals, the pages per article increased (Anesthesiology, Anesth Analg, Anaesthesia) or decreased (J Neurosurg Anesthesiol).

Figure 4: Pages per article [n] in the top five anesthesia journals.

Number of authors per article

The mean number of authors per article [n] was 3.6±0.7, which increased significantly in all journals from 1991 to 2010 (3.0 vs. 4.3, a relative increase of 43.3%; p<0.0001; Figure 5). Anesthesiology showed the smallest increase (1991 vs. 2010, 3.43 vs. 4.28 authors; relative increase of 24.8%), followed by Anaesthesia (2.3 vs. 3.2; +39.1%), Anesth Analg (3.35 vs. 4.67; +39.4%), and Br J Anaesth (3.08 vs. 4.62; +50%); the greatest increase was observed in the J Neurosurg Anesthesiol (3.0 vs. 4.8; +62.5%).

Discussion

The aim of the present study was to analyze publication parameters in five top-ranked anesthesia journals over a 20-year time frame. The following journals were analyzed: 1. Anesthesiology; 2. Br J Anaesth; 3. J Neurosurg Anesthesiol; 4. Anesth Analg; and 5. Anaesthesia. The absolute number of scientific publications has been rising since the 18th century [8]. Since then, the number of publications has doubled every 10 to 15 years [8]. This trend has been especially true in Anesthesiology, which has gained relevance recently, thereby resulting in a concomitant increase in scientific publications [9-11]

Country of origin

In the present study, the vast majority of publications were submitted from the US, followed by Western Europe and Japan (Table 1). These data are in concordance with Li et al.’s study, analyzing journals between 2000 and 2009 [12]. The top five countries in the present investigation were among the top seven countries in the study by Li et al. [12]. Figueredo and colleagues also found that the USA, the UK, Japan, Germany, Canada, and France published the most articles in anesthesia journals between 1997 and 2001 [13]. In their study, the largest increase in scientific production in anesthesiology was observed in Germany [13]. However, they concluded that the geographical distribution of scientific production must not only be analyzed in absolute terms but should also be evaluated relative to other variables, such as financial spending on research and development, as well as population growth [13].

Articles per year

Altogether, 42,549 articles were published in the five journals within the time frame analyzed. In Anesthesiology, the mean number of articles published per year was 498.8±67.6. Compared to 1991, the number of articles per year decreased by 5.0% until 2010. In Anaesthesia, a decrease of 45.1% in the mean number of articles published was observed in the same period. In order to attain higher quality in journal articles and consequently a higher IF, several prerequisites for article acceptance have been developed in recent years. Currently, clinical trial registration, as well as plagiarism checks and ethical committee approvals, is a standard practice. Although this practice ensures higher-quality articles, it also could result in a decrease in the number of accepted publications.

Li et al. [14] confirmed these results in 18 different anesthesiology journals. The authors postulated that this decrease might be associated with an increasing IF. Feneck and colleagues also found a decrease in research publications from the UK in anesthesia journals from 1997 to 2006 [15]. In our study, the journals Br J Anaesth, J Neurosurg Anesthesiol, and Anesth Analg showed significant increases in the numbers of publications per year (1991 to 2010). Another study published by Li et al. [14] showed that these journals have decreasing numbers of articles while analyzing the period of 2000-2009 only. However, it is accepted that the absolute number of scientific publications is less important due to the difficulties that can occur in quality assessments of studies [16].

Impact factor analysis

Among the many surrogate parameters, the IF from the Institute for Scientific Information [2] has achieved the greatest popularity, especially in government research and medical schools [3, 4]. It is a common, but fictive, instrument for quantifying the importance of a medical paper based on citations [17] and it is used to rate the quality of a (medical) journal [4, 5]. Today, the IF also has enormous significance for research department funding [3, 18]. The IF was originally designed and sold as a product for advertisers, i.e., it was sold to advertisers, at very high costs for the purpose of helping them target their advertisements to the most widely read journals within the set of journals that were read by potential buyers of their products [19]. Although the IF is not an absolute measurement of the quality of a journal [3], it can quantify the influence of a journal in the medical field [4]. Because the IF influences medical research and funding [18], changes in the IF can significantly affect publication practice [6]. During the time frame analyzed, the IF of all journals in the present study increased (2.249 in 1991 vs. 3.639 in 2010; i.e., +61.81%). This phenomenon is not new and has been observed for several years also by other authors [20]. The median and highest IF in the present study have increased since 2005 [3]. This increase in IF has been observed for years [3, 20]. One main reason for the IF boom is the growth of research production [4, 20, 21]. More researchers are writing more contributions in more journals [22, 23] with more references [3]. In contrast, several journals have decreasing IFs, especially those in non-English languages and those that are difficult to access.

However, IFs can be manipulated by many strategies: self-citation; increasing editorials and reviews (more likely to be cited); and a reduction of the number of case reports (less likely to be cited) [4, 16, 18]. Therefore, the importance of the IF remains controversial [24] and there is no established current alternative available to rate the quality of scientific publications [4].

As the main factor that could lead to overestimate the IF is the amount of self-citations within a journal, in 2010 Landoni et al. [25] have suggested to apply a new metric called “new IF 20%”. This instrument, accounting the weight of self-citation with the aim of limiting their influence on the final result, is employed when the self-citation percentage is more than 20% of the total. Other authors present innovative journal metrics as IF substitute, e.g. the CAPCI factor (Citation Average per Citable Item) by E.P. Diamandis [26]. In addition, the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) has outlined guidelines for the authorship of scientific papers [27], but it remains unclear whether authors comply with these prerequisites when submitting manuscripts. Therefore, the contributions of each author should not only be judged by the authors themselves but also by the editors to prevent misconduct by researchers and inadequate authorship.

Article type

Although the absolute numbers of comparative studies and RCTs were comparable between 1991 and 2010, there were significant variations per year. In contrast, the absolute number of case reports decreased significantly by 45.8% between 2003 and 2010 and by 54.7% between 1991 and 2010. Li et al. [14] also found a decreasing number of articles per year (both clinical studies and RCTs) when analyzing several different journals. Because case reports are cited less frequently in the years after their publication, publishing them can be counterproductive for a journal striving to obtain a higher IF. Therefore, publishing fewer case reports to enhance the IF might have motivated the major anesthesiology journals that were analyzed in the present study.

Pages per article

The mean number of pages per article was 4.3±1.4 and did not change between 1991 and 2010 (Figure 4; p>0.05). However, only in the Br J Anaesth the pages per article remained stable during the time frame analyzed (p>0.05). For Anesthesiology, Anesth Analg, and Anaesthesia the pages per article increased but decreased significantly for J Neurosurg Anesthesiol. However, due to lower publications costs and the availability of electronic publication [28], restrictions on the length of articles might not have been as relevant as such restrictions previously were.

Number of authors per article

The mean number of authors per article was 3.6±0.7 in the present study, and it increased significantly in all journals analyzed between 1991 and 2010 (3.0 vs. 4.3; relative increase of 43.3%). This increase was the lowest in Anesthesiology (+24.8%) and was significantly higher in the other journals (+62.5%). The increase in the number of authors per articles has also been a commonly observed phenomenon in other medical journals and in different countries [29, 30]. This phenomenon has been observed even in the most highly ranked journals (N Engl J Med, J Am Med Assoc, and The Lancet) [29, 30]. Kumar et al. [30] reported a gradual increase in the average number of authors over the past three decades [30]. Drenth et al. also found an increasing number of authors in the Br Med J [31]. These findings are congruent with the results of the present study, although different medical fields were analyzed. A number of reasons could be responsible for this phenomenon [30]. There has been an increasing trend toward cooperation among researchers in multiple disciplines and an increase in multi-center studies, as well as an increase in the complexity of research projects, which could facilitate collaboration and result in an increase in the number of authors per article [30, 32]. Additionally, it has been shown that studies with many authors are cited more often than studies with fewer authors, thereby contributing to the IF of the journal [23].

Limitations

The analysis in the present study was restricted to only five high-ranked anesthesiology journals listed in the Medline and PubMed database. All these journals are published in English. Due to the descriptive character of this study, it was possible to delineate variations in the specific publications measured, but it was not possible to provide definitive answers why these changes occurred. However, we used a 20-year time frame to compensate for variations in specific years. Although the journals were selected from the anesthesiology category of JCR, a few of the selected journals cover disciplines beyond anesthesia research.

Conclusions

The present study could provide some interesting insight into the trends in several specific publication measurements. When interpreted in the global context of biomedical publishing, the present study identified the potential publication strategies used to enhance the prominence of anesthesia journals. The IF (mean: +61.81%), as well the number of articles per year (+57.2%) and the numbers of authors per article (+43.3%) increased significantly between 1991 and 2010. In contrast, only the number of pages per article remained comparable during the period analyzed. It is impossible to offer definitive answers explaining why these measures changed, but these changes could partially be due to the authors (e.g., number of authors per article). In our opinion, the publication process would have greater transparency if journals would provide such data at the end of each year.

A Solid Strategy

Book: Open Heart, Book 2 Pairing: Dr. Ethan Ramsey x F!MC (Dr. Sawyer Brooks) Rating: General Warning: None Category: Rewrite; Angsty Fluff Word count: 1.1K Summary: Ethan loses his temper after Sawyer makes an impulsive decision.

“Sawyer!”

Ethan’s deep booming cry reverberated off the walls of the expansive atrium.  

She grabbed Lamar’s wrist just before he jumped off the narrow ledge. The confused man dangled precariously over the atrium as patients and staff watched in horror below.

Just as Sawyer’s feet lifted from the floor, Ethan slammed his body against hers, pinning her against the railing.

A strong arm wrapped around her waist, holding on for dear life, while another reached over the railing to grab Lamar’s flailing free hand. 

“I’m okay,” she promised with her feet once again planted firmly to the ground. “I’ve got this side. Let’s pull him up.” 

Together, they hauled their patient to safety and gently restrained him until additional help arrived. 

The scene was under control not long after. Lamar had been escorted back to his room by a couple of interns and hospital security. 

“Are you hurt?” Ethan asked, scanning Sawyer up and down.

She rubbed her abdomen where she had been crushed between him and the railing. “I’ll probably have some bruises tomorrow, but otherwise, I’m fine.”

“Are you sure?”

She nodded. 

“Then arrange the test and check in with Mrs. Stevenson to see if she has any questions about the procedure.”

He had already spun on his heel and started walking away before she could even say "Okay."

<><><><><><><><><><>

A while later, Sawyer tracked her boss down to his private office. With the door ajar, she peered inside.

Ethan sat at his desk, seemingly in deep thought as he stared at a picture of his late friend Dolores. The framed photograph that Sawyer gifted him last Christmas.

“There you are,” she greeted. “Anesthesiology is short-staffed today, so we won’t be able to do Lamar’s spinal tap until tomorr-”

Sawyer jumped in surprise when Ethan stood and slammed his hands on the desk, cutting her off.

“Don’t you ever pull a stunt like that again. Do I make myself clear, Dr. Brooks?” he admonished.

The adrenaline rush had worn off. His neck turned crimson with fury as the feelings that had been suppressed by his body’s natural fight-or-flight response now bubbled to the surface. 

“W-What? I…,” she stammered, caught off guard by his severe tone and the use of her last name. “I-I’m sorry. I…I didn’t think. I just reacted.” 

“No, you didn’t. You didn’t think at all. A man that size could have easily pulled you over that railing with him. He nearly did!” 

“Ethan, I-”

He motioned for her to stop talking. “I don’t want to hear your excuses. You’re lucky I don’t write you up for demonstrating reckless behavior and poor judgment.”

“He would have died! I had to do something,” she argued, cheeks burning hot with indignation.

“Your job is to save lives with medicine. You were not hired to be a goddamn superhero.”

“He wasn’t in his right mind, Ethan. I wasn’t going to let him hurt himself. And I wasn’t going to let that poor woman watch the man she loves fall to his death.”

Her words only enraged him further. “But you would let me watch you,” he thought to himself. 

Ethan hung his head low and took a couple deep breaths to control his temper before speaking again. 

“It would have been a terrible and unfortunate circumstance if Mr. Stevenson had hurt himself, but it would have been much worse if I…,” he cleared his throat, correcting his course, “...if we had unnecessarily lost two lives.”

Sawyer silently processed his words, having caught his slip. 

The way she looked at him, it felt as though she was daring him to say what he really meant. And it infuriated him. 

Too proud to admit his feelings and determined to keep their relationship professional, he hid behind his condemnation.

“You’re done for the day. Go home. I’ll find someone to take over your cases,” he barked.

Fighting back tears of frustration, Sawyer nodded and walked away.

She was only halfway down the hall when she stopped in her tracks. Looking back toward the now closed office door, she replayed their interaction in her mind. Though his words were cutting, and his temperament harsh, Sawyer suddenly felt bad for him. She had seen this side of Ethan before. This was the lashing out of a man who was afraid of losing someone he cared about.

A moment later, the door to his office opened and closed. 

Ethan stood with his back to the door, staring out the window. 

“I thought I told you to go home,” he growled, seeing her reflection in the glass.

Sawyer approached him cautiously but confidently, refusing to be cowed by his anger.

He turned to face her, prepared for the impending clash. An accusation of insubordination readied on the tip of his tongue.

She stopped within arms reach. With soft eyes she met his scrutinizing ones, and she waited until he discerned there was no fight to be had. Then lunging forward, Sawyer wrapped her arms around his torso.

He remained rigid, arms hanging at his sides.

Resting her chin on his shoulder, she apologized softly in his ear. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you. If the roles were reversed, I’d feel the same way about you.” 

After a few seconds, she swatted him between the shoulder blades. “Stop being a jerk and hug me back.”

Ethan finally surrendered. He folded his arms around her and rested his head against the side of hers. 

Exhaling a deep, shaky breath, he released his remaining tension. 

“I owe you an apology,” he began, still holding her tight. “Though I stand by the sentiment, I am sorry for losing my temper.”

Sawyer placed a tender kiss on his jacketed shoulder. “Thank you.”

After a long, indulgent embrace, he pulled back and sighed.

“Christ, Rookie. How do you always seem to find trouble? How can I ever let you out of my sight?”

“Uh-oh. You’re on to me,” she winked. 

“I am somewhat serious. Have you forgotten when I found you turning blue behind the nurses’ station? Or your ethics trial?”

“Pft,” she waved him off. 

“Have you already forgotten when you nearly broke your neck at the Stevenson’s yesterday? And now we get to add being dragged over the balcony to that heart-stopping list.”

“Well…,” she shrugged her shoulders, “I did end up in your arms each of those times. So my evil plan must be working.”

With an endearing smile, she squeezed his hand and turned for the door. 

“Where are you going?”

“You ordered me to go home. If I leave now I might still catch the 3:30 train. And don’t worry, I’ll try not to get mugged or pushed onto the tracks,” she teased.

“Don’t even joke about that,” he warned with a shake of his head. “Give me a minute,” he instructed, pocketing his wallet and keys. “I’ll drive you home.” 

“See? It's a solid strategy.”

Cracking the Dermatology Code Understanding CPT Codes by Time

Navigating the world of dermatology appointments can now and again sense like deciphering a complicated code. Between medical jargon, billing techniques, and coverage intricacies, both patients and specialists can recognize bit readability. One important detail on this puzzle is the CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) codes, in particular those determined through time. This weblog put up targets to get to the bottom of those codes, making them greater accessible to dermatology sufferers, medical coders, and healthcare experts alike.

The Basics of CPT Codes

CPT codes are a critical a part of the medical billing process. Developed by way of the American Medical Association, these 5-digit numeric codes are used to describe medical, surgical, and diagnostic offerings.

Understanding this shape lets in medical coders to as it should be classify and document the offerings supplied throughout a dermatology appointment, ensuring that all parties involved are on the same web page.

Common Time-Based Codes in Dermatology

In dermatology, numerous time-primarily based CPT codes are often used to describe diverse offerings. For instance, evaluation and management codes together with 99201-99205 are used for new affected person visits, even as 99211-99215 are used for hooked up sufferers. Each code corresponds to specific time periods and ranges of complexity, reflecting the intensity of the carrier furnished.

➳ warnings: none

➳ summary: There was a senior resident at the hospital you worked at and you didn’t expect to like him so much.

➳ note: assume that law is more “open” here compared to canon law since this is a modern au and it’s impossible for half of his backstory to be true (even though bepo is a character)

i’m also not a professional doctor of medicine y’all i’m literally still about to enter uni LMFAO

I.

There was a senior resident at the hospital you worked at and his name was Law. He was under the cardiology department and had been working his way up the ranks of the Executive Board for the last three years, and apparently, he was always the main attraction for the new ICU residents.

You used to be one of the said residents because you decided a small crush on a colleague who you weren’t close to wouldn’t hurt. Working at a hospital was already hard enough on its own so you wanted to brighten up your workplace by sprinkling in a little bit of spice; and Law Trafalgar happened to be just that. So in your first 10 months of being a resident, the 36-hour shifts everyone feared didn’t seem all that bad anymore, because he would always be there.

You specialized in anesthesiology and had been the anesthesiologist in Law’s operations for as long as you could remember. Long surgical operations—through the disquietude and uneasiness of them all—were the only opportunities for interaction with Law because he was (reasonably) a busy man. And when the operation was easy enough, you would talk to each other over the music tinkling from the sound system and the beeps and whirs of the machinery.

To your disappointment, you only ever talked about simple things like the breaking news from the Daily Inquirer or mild rumors from your respective departments because the rest of the surgical team would hear everything. There was little to no opportunity for you to make a move (not like you were confident enough for it anyway) so you left your romantic endeavors with Law up to fate. But little did you know, Law liked having you around and rambling away with whatever you had in mind—although whether he found romance within his interest for you or not was still a mystery for him, like an enigmatic clot of emotions buried deep in his heart that he had yet to incise and examine, yet to diagnose.

Law was a busy man with no time for romantic exploits, but he did have time for department lunches after morning operations. Today, with you and the rest of his team, he was going to dine in a restaurant which he hadn’t done in a while.

You were seated next to Law at your table but you paid him no mind as an attempt to keep your excitement at bay. Law didn’t seem to care that you hadn’t talked to him the entire 15 minutes you were waiting for your crew, but he eventually itched to talk to you after Shachi excused himself to the restroom and he had no one to talk to.

When you weren’t speaking to anyone, he inched a little closer to you. “Have you eaten here before?”

Holding in a squeak, you looked up from your phone and let a smile pass instead. “Nope. I don’t eat out anymore but I know they have a lot of food options.”

“That’s great. I wouldn’t know what to choose.”

“You can always ask the waitress for recommendations,” you supplied.

“Yeah”—Law smiled—“I’ll go with that.”

A few moments later, Shachi had come back from the restroom and the rest of the team were piling in. Tables were full and the restaurant buzzed with activity. You had to move closer to Law because of the limited space, and this went on until he was at the very end of the table, sandwiched between you and the wall.

There was less than an inch of space between you and him and needless to say, it was overwhelming. But you kept yourself at ease by talking to Ikkaku beside you, until your nonchalance was shattered with a slight touch of your leg with Law’s under the table.

Your breath hitched and his lips parted, but neither of you noticed the other’s reaction and just played it off like normal. Neither of you moved. Your legs, covered only by the thin cloth of your scrubs stayed put, as if they never touched at all.

You only forgot about this moment when the food came, too busy eating to remember Law’s presence next to you.

But he eventually asked you to pass the condiments, and you obeyed. When you handed him the bottle, however, your hands touched and you gasped.

“Sorry, thank you,” Law said quietly, but even his ordinary calm voice didn’t sound calm at all. He opened the ketchup bottle and proceeded to eat, although unusually quieter than earlier.

Compared to you and Law, the rest of your table was full of life. Bepo was telling a ridiculous story while Ikkaku was rambling about the new residents she encountered. She then tapped your arm and gossiped about one of their engagements, painfully jealous over the couple.

The entire time you were there, Law would be dragged in the conversation and all eyes would be looking toward you. Thankfully, Law was abnormally tall and much more massive, so he didn’t have a problem with craning his head to see the rest of the crew. You decided to just ignore your feelings for the meantime and listen to him talk away for the rest of the meal.

When it was time to leave, your group piled out of the booth one by one after processing the bill. But before you could exit, a waitress hastily passed by you and caught you off guard.

You took a few steps back to avoid bumping into her but it was far enough to hit Law’s body. Your back hit his chest and he had to stop you from losing balance.

“I’m sorry ma’am!” the waitress apologized. She repeatedly asked if you were alright and you reassured her. When she had settled the matter and went back to her duties, you realized that Law had placed his hand on the small of your back. Heat crept to your cheeks and you stepped away from him.

Too shy to look at him carefully, you thanked him with a weary, “Thank you,” and awaited his response before catching up with your team by the exit. Law was stunned by what he did, so his brain could only come up with a meek, “Hm,” shortly before he followed you out the restaurant.

It was back to hospital duty by the time you arrived at the ambulatory, so you parted ways with your team.

Law would had been glad to be back at work, but it wasn’t so easy when you wouldn’t leave his mind for the rest of the day.

II.

Ikkaku was crying over (rambling about, actually) the new residents because she got closer with the bunch over the past few days. She learned that two of them, the engaged couple she was yapping about days ago during lunch, were having a beach wedding and had booked a two-week long vacation for their Honeymoon in the Bahamas. Ikkaku couldn’t contain her squeal when she told you this, and truth be told you were squealing as well.

Suddenly, you were called to one of your patients’ room for post anesthesia care, so you bid Ikkaku goodbye before going back to work. You arrived at the patient’s room, a sweet woman just a few years older than you, and monitored her condition before exiting quietly.

A sigh passed your lips as you sauntered back to your department building, glancing at your watch to check the time. It was 5 PM—just a little more and you could finally go home. The dinner menu was ringing in your ears, and you realized you hadn’t eaten since that morning.

You entered the skybridge and tiredly looked out the glass panes. The sun had already met the horizon and its orange hues painted the vicinity. It was calm. But footsteps echoed from the other end of the skybridge and you were immediately distracted.

It was Law. He was wearing his scrubs underneath his white coat. He caught your eye and you smiled shyly, but it didn’t take long for it to get awkward. With the bridge running about 30 meters from the South Tower to the North, it took a few seconds for Law to be in close proximity, which left enough time for awkward tension to settle in, after already meeting eyes.

When you were near enough, you greeted him a good evening and he nodded at you.

“Good evening,” he greeted back. Then he passed you and continued his way to the South Tower.

As cold as he was, your feelings for Law pursued.

And you didn’t know if it was a good thing or not.

A few days later, you were ordered to deliver documents to Law and a couple of other surgeons before the end of the day. You didn’t mind the job because work was calm then—you didn’t say the word out loud, of course—and because you hadn’t seen Law in a while.

You happened to meet him in the small hallway near the patient ward alone and you chatted for a bit. The conversation went smoothly, although it was mostly about work and the documents you delivered.

Halfway through, a disabled patient emerged from the ward and Law gently pulled you to the side. Your brain stopped functioning. Law kindly let the patient and his nurse pass through, then got back to where he left off in your convo.

Shock registered in you and you let out an uncontrolled chuckle, cutting Law short. “You’ve got to stop doing that.”

“I’m sorry,” he apologized, “I made you uncomfortable.”

“No no no, I liked it,” you explained hotly. “Not-not like, in a creepy way.”

His lips parted open, as if he was shocked too. Then he made up his mind to just knowingly smile at you.

“I’ll see you some other time,” he said as he walked away.

III.

You were talking to Ikkaku over the phone hours before you went out with your brother. She helped you pick a dress to wear while nattering about the events at work.

“I learned something from the residents in my department today. It’s something that you might want to know,” she said with a light giggle. She watched you wear your jewelry and let a smirk morph onto her lips. “Where was It that you were eating out again?”

“Wolfgang,” you said. “For my brother’s early graduation. You’re really getting comfortable with the first-years, aren’t you?”

“They’re extremely nice and good at their job,” she replied. “They also have connections here and there, so y’know where I get my gossip from.”

“Of course, classic Kaku.”

“You’re the one to talk, girlypop. I know you’re getting into somebody’s pants at ours.”

Your eyes widened. “What?”

“A certain Mr. Trafalgar,” she said in sing-song.

You wanted to scream.

“Oh, don’t you dare give me that look (Y/N), it’s pretty obvious that you’re sneaking out together.”

“We aren’t sneaking out,” you defended. “We aren’t even together.”

“There are sparks though, right?” She pointed a teasing finger at you. “Hmm, whole ICU knows including the patients, so you shouldn’t be afraid. Workplace romance is very normal.”

“I don’t know where you’re coming from, but you’re totally wrong.” You huffed as you finished tending to your jewelry and hair. Suddenly, a call from your brother interrupted your flustered exchange, and you started packing your things at the notice. “I gotta go. Little brother’s here to pick me up.”

“Wait!” Ikkaku yelped. “Don’t you want to know what I was about to say earlier? From the residents?”

You frowned, upset that you had to decline. “I’m sorry. Can you text it to me?”

She sighed, but there was still a hint of tease in her voice. “Never mind, just find it out yourself. Have a fun night lovely.”

You dropped the call as you bid goodbye and all but ran outside your building and climbed into your brother’s car. As the vehicle sped off, Ikkaku’s words echoed at the back of your mind.

You arrived at Wolfgang 30 minutes later and were met with greetings from staff and assistance from valet. You and your brother were then led to your reserved seats for two and ordered your food once settled.

“Congrats on making it into the Honor Roll,” you said. “Higgs isn’t an easy school.”

“You know it was because of you and dad always telling me to work my ass off.” He rolled his eyes. “And he didn’t even make it here in the end.”

“He’ll be here in a few days,” you reassured, “and you did the work yourself, so at the end of the day you get the credit too. We were just there to help occasionally.”

He frowned, painfully visible in the candlelight. “I hope he gets here. It’s always just you, while mom is . . . doing whatever the hell she’s doing.”

“You have me,” you reassured again. He pursed his lips and shifted the conversation to your work life, and you shared a thing or two about your hospital experience and great bonding time with Ikkaku. You subtly mentioned Law as the cardiothoraccic surgeon who you liked to work for and it luckily didn’t bring enough questioning from your brother.

The food arrived and you dug in. You hadn’t dined like this in more than five years and the experience was overwhelming; steak was served well-done and chardonnay was poured into delicate champagne glasses. Headlights were dimmed and candles lit every table. Your dress matched the dinner ambience, the food was good, and you and your brother were happy.

“Their steak is juiced up,” your brother murmured as he took a bite. “Love the honey flavor.”

“I always had an inkling that you would go to a culinary arts school if it weren’t for your becoming in law,” you commented.

“No, you’re right,” he said, “but I’ll finish law school then enter culinary arts. I have time. I’ll make it there.”

You blinked. “You will?” You didn’t know about this goal, never heard of it before. “That’s . . . really cool.”

“I will. I’m sure you’ve met Sanji before. He got me into all that cooking stuff.” He shrugged.

“Oh yeah, that blond guy with curled eyebrows?” You laughed. “He was nice. He was really . . .” You trailed off, distracted.

“Yeah”—your brother rolled his eyes—“flirty.” You laughed nervously but you had stopped paying attention to what he was saying. Your eyes had flitted to a table of three, 4 tables away from you and had focused on a black-haired man dressed formally in a black dress shirt and slacks. He faced your direction but was engaged in conversation with two other guests. He looked down on his food, took a bite, then lifted his head back up and glanced at your table.

It startled him for a split second but Law regained his composure and went back to the conversation. Out of all places in the city, he didn’t expect to see you here on a Saturday evening in a beautiful dress and sparkling jewelry. You didn’t strike him as the type to eat out so it was pretty shocking to see you dolled up for a candlelit dinner with a . . .

Who’s that? Law thought to himself.

But never mind the guy. He had to worry about not looking obviously panicked when he met your eyes a few seconds ago, which he would hate if he ever failed to, because it was uncharacteristically him to be obvious.

“I’m glad we got to squeeze in this dinner today,” his cousin spoke, snapping Law out of his trance. “Duty has been peaceful recently. I think a big one is coming soon.”

His fiancée elbowed his side. “Don’t say that, you’re cursing the three of us.”

“We’re not at work,” her fiancé deadpanned.

“It’ll be fine. It’s only happened a few times,” Law said.

The couple across him laughed and continued to bicker about work. Law joined in. He felt that he needed to as the guest, and that he should give this one evening to his cousin and his fiancée who had both applied for an internship at the memorial hospital he worked at. Law didn’t know about it until recently because he had overheard Ikkaku talk about it with Bepo during break. Now that their wedding was fast approaching, it felt appropriate to treat them to an evening dinner as an early wedding gift.

The woman’s phone buzzed, and she shyly excused herself out. “Sorry, I have to take this.”

Her fiancé nodded in approval and she walked out to take the call. Law excused himself to the restroom while she was away, to both catch his breath and use the actual restroom.

You saw Law get up from his table and walk to the back of the restaurant where the restroom stalls were. You watched as he snuck into the comfort room and disappeared behind the door.

Would it be wrong if you met him outside?

Would he mind?

You could follow him and pretend to use the restroom even if you didn’t need to, pretend that you had to wash off a stain, or grease from your hands. But you weren’t sure if it would work, especially on a man like Law.

Well, even if it did work, you would still go back to ignoring your feelings anyway because of your job.

You told your brother about your business and strode to the comfort room, where a vanity stood behind the small partition from the dining area to the lavatories. You fixed your appearance—patting down your hair, smoothening out the folds of your dress, and retouching your makeup—until Law emerged from the men’s room and met your eyes in the mirror.

You flushed. Law was surprised.

“Hi, um,” you stuttered, “nice to see you here.”

“Hi.” You spun around and met him face-to-face. “You’re with—?”

“My brother,” you replied. “He’s graduating his undergraduate program for-for law school.”

“Law?” Law chuckled. Your cheeks grew hot. “Congratulations.”

You laughed nervously and thanked him, then Law explained that he was out with his cousin and his fiancée to celebrate their engagement. Law mentioned that they worked at your hospital, and it rang a bell in your head.

“By any chance, are they interns?” you asked.

“Yes,” he confirmed. “First-years.”

Your eyes widened, realizing what he just said.

So this was what Ikkaku wanted to tell you.

“If I remember correctly, Ikkaku is one of their friends. She must have told you.”

“She did, kinda. I’m-I’m just surprised to see you here.”

From the corner of his eye, Law could see his cousin regrouping with his fiancée who had gone back to their table. Looking back at you, he said, “It was unexpected,” then hesitantly added, “You look really good tonight.”

Law (uncharacteristically and internally) shoved his head into his palms as he let the words out, surprising both you and him. Your heart thumped loudly in your chest, and you couldn’t stop the genuine smile that formed on your lips. You laughed lightly.

“Thank you,” you said.

Law looked at you one more time until he had to excuse himself out and walk back to his table. You did the same after regaining your composure and fixing yourself again. Your brother met you at the table, confused on what took you so long.

“Just a girl thing,” you told him when he questioned it.

Meanwhile, at table six, Law was distracted for the remaining time he had left for dinner. He couldn’t fathom the encounter with you, couldn’t understand his unusual reaction and the strange feeling in his chest. Law thought he was going crazy when he couldn’t stop thinking about the first time you touched at the restaurant, or when you both awkwardly greeted each other in the hallways.

He couldn’t understand what was happening, or why he kept playing into it at all. But he rethought it all out and wondered deeply. Did he really not understand?

Or was he just afraid to admit that he was starting to?

He was probably lying to himself.

And the glimpse you took at his table, which he happened to catch just in time, confirmed that.

IV.

A month had passed since your encounter with Law and it had been a pretty fun four weeks.

Meetups were more frequent and conversation became less awkward. You had gotten comfortable with him when he began to approach you himself, sometimes due to work and sometimes just for fun. Neither of you acknowledged it, but it was clear that there was something going on between the both of you.

You and Law had finished an emergency operation together and were cooped up in the break room to get some rest.

He was exhausted, unsettlingly quiet with hooded eyes that screamed no sleep. He held a cup of water and periodically took small sips from it as he spaced out, thinking to himself deeply.

Your team went in and out of the break room until it was only you and him left. It was silent, with the only sound source coming from the air conditioner. It was nearly 1 AM and you were wondering how to get home.

Deciding between walking or being patient enough to wait for a cab, you stood up from your seat and disposed of your cup. Law looked up from the floor and watched your actions closely.

“Are you going home?” he asked softly. Tiredly, if you might.

You nodded. “You?”

“I’ll check out in a bit,” he said. “Are you commuting?”

“Um, yeah. I’ll probably find something.” You shrugged, evidently not caring about it much. You had gone through the trouble of commute a couple of times before and you were an expert at that point. The only problem was, commuting late at night took a lot of time and patience.

“You’re commuting home?” He furrowed his eyebrows unpleasantly, almost as if he was displeased that he had guessed correctly. “Let me help you. I’ll take you home.”

“Law,” you started, “I’ll-I’ll be fine. You need to go home too, you’re tired.”

“I will not allow that.” Law refused to let a woman go off on her own unattended at night especially if it was you. There was nothing in this world that could sway him to let you be in this situation. Law argued against your refusals until he was up and standing, properly trying to reason with your dilemma.

“I don’t want to bother you. It’s late, get some sleep and go home,” you whined when he didn’t budge even after a minute of convincing.

He sighed. Looking down at you with tired eyes, he said, “Please. Stay safe.”

You nodded in promise, glad that you had persuaded him despite his strong arguments. Law planned to leave, but he just gazed at you deeply.

You looked back at him.

Then, he glanced at the door and at the corners of the room for any signs of a camera. When he proved that it would be safe, he leaned into you.

He brushed your hair to the side and pulled himself close. Then he kissed you.

Your lips parted in surprise but you kept them open as Law kissed you a little harder. He moved his lips in sync with yours, remembering the pretty looks and touches you’ve given him the past month. Once you were comfortable, he started to guide you through the kiss until your lips were finally in motion with his.

You pulled back for air but continued. Law kept his hand on the side of your head still while you placed your hands on his chest. He was unbearably close and you swore your legs touched. When you ran out of air the second time, the both of you pulled back.

“Can I take you home?” he asked again, breathless.

You nodded.

Definitely.

Moments later, Law led you to your locker where you packed your things and checked out. He checked out along with you and offered to carry your bag as you both set foot for the parking lot.

In just a few minutes, you were in the passenger seat as Law drove out the lot and into the empty midnight streets of the city. A couple of cars zipped by when you reached the overpass while billboards showed themselves and littered the perimeter. Soft noise from the radio and the hum of tires on asphalt kept you awake.

Law cooed you to sleep during the ride but you refused to shut your eyes. Although tired, you knew better than to miss out on this one moment with Law where it was just you and him in private, with no work-related problem bugging your minds in the middle of the night. It was just you and him, alone together in secrecy; a dream you had always wished for ever since you took a liking to him.

It felt wonderful to be there with him.

When you neared your residence, Law was disappointed that he had to say goodbye sooner than expected, but one glance at you and he was convinced that you deserved to rest. He parked outside your lot and hopped off the vehicle, then went over to your side to pop the door open and help you dismount the car.

You and him stood at your front gate, faces barely visible in the moonlight but doe eyes blown enough to notice. You keyed the gate open and thanked Law for the night before telling him goodbye.

But courage pumped through your veins, and at the very last second you ran to him with delight and stood on your tiptoes to meet his lips again. Law was shocked but reacted quickly, and he kissed back the same way he did earlier at work.

When you both pulled away, you grinned at him. “Can you text me when you get home?”

He shyly smiled back, but you knew he reciprocated. “I will.”

Law drove off once he made sure that you had entered your home safely, and after 15 minutes, your phone lit up with a notification.

lawdtrafalgar: I’m home.

y/nl/n: You’re safe?

lawdtrafalgar: Just like you asked.

y/nl/n: Good :]

It was an exhausting day. But you were glad you spent it with him.

V.

Three weeks passed and Law made it a habit to take you out to eat or stroll around the city whenever you were free. You didn’t mind it—in actuality, you liked every moment you spent with him because he made you feel safe.

Sweet gestures became frequent but would be kept subtle and at a minimum since Law wasn’t the showy type. Nonetheless, you appreciated all the effort he put.

You walked beside Law on the promenade, where the city met the sea and the sea met the sun. It was a calm Wednesday evening after work and you had time to spare so you pulled Law to a 10-minute walk to kill time. He followed you with no objections, and walked with you in comfortable silence.

You later stopped at a bench and took a seat, Law following your actions patiently.

You found it the perfect time.

“I’ve been meaning to tell you,” you said as you held your gaze at the open sea, “I like you.”

Law didn’t reply much. He was half-surprised and half not because he knew how you felt, but didn’t expect you to say it now. He hoped to initiate this type of thing so it wouldn’t come to him out of nowhere, but this was fine too.

He knew he liked you back, so it was fine too.

After a long pause, he said, “I like you too,” then formulated the proper follow-up in his head and added, “I want to be with you,” a few seconds later.

You smiled sweetly, finally looking at him as excitement built inside you. Your heart thumped wildly the same way it did over a month ago, at the restaurant where things first sparked, in the hallways where you shyly spoke, and during lunch breaks when work was calm enough for a quick interaction. Law rested an arm around your shoulders and you nestled in his warmth.

“You read my mind just right,” you said.

“Would that make us official?”

“I’d say it would.”

Law stroked a comforting thumb on your shoulder and pulled you closer to him. You laid your head on his chest and hummed in content.

As you both looked into the horizon, traffic noise toning down and your surroundings becoming vibrant with each passing second, your worries washed away. With Law closely seated next to you, everything in the world felt just right.

pls be the judge if i should continue writing in this length or if i should shorten/lengthen it a bit <3 i think the problem with this one was that it started off as a chaptered fic until i decided to ka-boom everything in just one post so it seemed rush. i haven’t written in over a year though so i’m really rusty. thank u lot for reading 😭🧡

Sufferers of chronic pain have long been told it’s all in their head. We now know that’s wrong (Linda Geddes, The Guardian, June 28 2021)

“Traditionally, doctors have divided pain into two categories: nociceptive pain, triggered by injuries such as bruises, burns, fractures, sprains or inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, and detected by pain receptors in our skin, bones and other tissues;

and neuropathic pain triggered by damage to the nerves that carry sensory signals from these tissues to the brain and spinal cord.

But a few years ago, the IASP introduced a third category: nociplastic pain – pain arising from the altered processing of these sensory signals, without any evidence of actual or threatened tissue damage.

One thing that can happen is that the pain signals carried by peripheral nerves from the skin, muscles, joints or internal organs to the spinal cord can become amplified, worsening the pain. (…)

For one thing, nerves in the brain and spinal cord – the central nervous system – can become hyper-excitable, meaning that minor bumps and grazes become agonising, and even non-painful stimuli such as brushing your hair or touching your skin can trigger pain.

“It is like an allergic reaction in the pain system,” Arendt-Nielsen says. This “central sensitisation” can also spread.

“One of the features that we see in many patients with chronic pain is that they have this generalised pain hypersensitivity.

They might have osteoarthritis and pain in their knee, but if you quantitatively assess the sensitivity of the pain system, they have a lower lower pain threshold throughout their bodies,” Arendt-Nielsen says. (…)

“In many people with conditions like low back pain, endometriosis, irritable bowel, headache, fibromyalgia, you’re not going to find a problem in the area of the body where the person is experiencing pain.

There’s more and more evidence that these are central nervous system, systemic conditions, where the pain can present in different areas of the body at different points in time over that person’s life,” says Daniel Clauw, a professor of anesthesiology, medicine and psychiatry at the University of Michigan.

He likens the experience of pain to the noise produced by an electric guitar; to make it louder, you can either strum the strings harder or turn up the amplifier. 

In this analogy, the strings are represented by the peripheral nerves carrying sensory information from our organs and tissues, and the amplifier by the brain and spinal cord.

A patient with third-degree burns is having their strings strummed extremely hard, whereas in someone with fibromyalgia – a long-term condition that causes pain all over the body – their amplifier has been set too loud. 

“They can have pain, without the strings even having to be strummed,” Clauw says. (…)

Not everyone who develops a chronic pain condition will develop more of them but they seem to be particularly prevalent among women, and those affected also often suffer from non-pain conditions such as sleep and mood disorders, and fatigue.

Some of this variation between men and women may be due to immune system differences, with women also more prone to autoimmune disease.

Immune cells trigger inflammation, which can trigger pain. 

Sex hormones such as oestrogen and testosterone can further exacerbate or dull pain, depending where they are released and in what quantities.

Laid on top of those basic amplifier settings are events that happen to you as you go through life.

Chronic pain is more common among people who experienced lots of surgery as children, or emotional or physical abuse.

There is also a strong link between chronic pain and depression. Of course, living with chronic pain can be depressing, but depression can also amplify pain processing in and of itself.

This is not the same thing as suggesting that someone’s mental attitude can affect their pain.

“Rather, people often don’t realise that the brain pathways that drive depression are intrinsically linked to the ones that drive chronic pain,” says Dr Kirsty Bannister, a senior lecturer at King’s College London, who researches these pain pathways. (…)

Although opioids are effective at dampening short-term severe pain or cancer pain, they are highly addictive and accidental overdose kills about 50,000 people in the US alone each year.

They can also make chronic pain worse.

This is because opioids provide relief by blocking pain receptors but your body responds by increasing the number of pain receptors, meaning you need higher doses to get the same relief.

In chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia, people have already been producing natural opioids called endorphins, which bind to the same receptors.

“Giving them an opioid is like throwing kerosene on to a fire,” Clauw says.”

Medblr asks! 4, 6, 11, 15, 24 GO!!! 😘

Thank you for the ask, finally got around to answer it. :)

4) Name some of Favourite specialties (as many as you like).

My number one is anesthesiology, but I really love pediatrics and dermatology too. And due to a really nice teacher, I also keep orthopaedics in my heart.

6) Name a specialty that makes you die a little inside. Why?

Neurology. It’s very specific, which doesn’t bode well with me, and also the lack of success. I mean, you can diagnose someone, even treat them more or less, but you can’t cure them, and I think it applies to most of the neuro patients. 

11) Name someone who has really inspired you recently.

He’s an anesthesiologist, and he was the lecturer at the last anesthesia lecture. Apart from the fact that I really respect what he does for the whole department and for us students, he told us a story about himself in his last year of med school, while he was working as a medic. The story didn’t have a happy ending, but it really touched me, and while now I’m scared sh*tless that I want to go down the same path he did... It really inspires me that you can learn from your mistakes, and that he could tell his mistake in front of a whole classroom, so we can learn from it.

15) Give us a pop - science/ medical book that you think we should read. (or two, or three…)

I really want to, I know I have read some amazing books in this category, but none of them comes to mind at the moment. (Well, the one I remember is only aviable in Hungarian.) In the last year apart from textbooks I’ve only read fantasy... I will reblog when something comes to mind :)

24) Share something you’ve done recently that you are proud of.

The last week. It’s been though, I had too many exams, and also had some personal/family problems, but I’m proud I stayed afloat. And did the exams like a pro.
