AI-Powered Medical Records Review for IMEs/QMEs: Why It Matters and How It Simplifies Evaluations
IMEs and QMEs often struggle with the time-consuming task of reviewing extensive medical records. Missing critical details can impact the accuracy of evaluations.
AI-powered medical records review changes the game by quickly analyzing large datasets and providing structured summaries. This allows evaluators to focus on accurate assessments instead of paperwork.
For instance, Dr. Emily, a QME, saved hours by adopting an AI tool that highlighted key insights, enhancing her workflow and precision. These tools integrate seamlessly, simplifying processes and improving evaluation quality.

Angel of Death.
In the medical field. Some people with a pathological interest in the power of life and death can be attracted to medical or related professions.
Killers who occupy the role of a professional carer are sometimes referred to as "angels of death" or "angels of mercy".
Really proud of this one :)

Guy can't stop uploading detailed MS Paint drawings of a specific surgery to Wikipedia; Gets banned
On April 1 2023 a user by the name of Jhnnyboy341325 uploaded a drawing, ChestSurgery.png, to the "Resuscitative thoracotomy" Wikipedia page to illustrate the technique, citing a "Jeff B." from "pixiv" as the source of the image. "A clamshell thoracotomy is depicted in the art to the right." This was quickly reverted by JBW two hours later:
The picture can be traced to jeffbozos43's drawing "Katie's Thoracotomy", which is viewable with a Pixiv account (warning for gore and... odd vibes). On June 9 the picture was removed from Wikimedia Commons for copyright violation (uploading from Pixiv without explicit consent).
On April 28, Hahnuggt322114522 uploaded Clamshellincision.jpg, captioned, "An emergency clamshell thoracotomy is shown below."
On May 3, Drwallace491582859 replaced the inline text with a caption: "Depiction of a clamshell thoracotomy or two antero-lateral thoracotomies," preserving the image.
On June 8th, "depths of wikipedia" noted the odd manga-style edit gracing the page:
This is an edit of Pixiv user 春千代 (Haruchiyo)'s suggestive guro art "心臓" (Heart)
A day later, an anonymous IP user reverted the edits.
On June 10, Drwallace4194 added an image, "Clamshell_Surgery.jpg" to the general "Thoracotomy" page. This image is an edit of "Katie's Thoracotomy" that covers more of her body and is currently still on Wikimedia Commons (archived).
On June 13, Myoglobin reverted, but applauded Drwallace4194's creativity:
October 13, Jamessavage299119 replaced both the general Thoracotomy page and the specific Resuscitative Thoracotomy page's primary images with Clamshellexample42.jpg and adjusted the caption accordingly. This image is currently lost.
Reverted by Stryx9876 October 22:
November 18, Doctorwallace34195124 replaced the primary image with ClamshellThoracotomyXample.jpg, viewable on Wikimedia Commons here (archived).
On the same day, Larry Hockett reverted these, politely indicating that the contributions did not appear constructive on Doctorwallace34195124's talk page.
The surgery pages have remained the same since.
The accounts were flagged as potential sockpuppets for "adding manga" in June, though only Clamshellincision.jpg was in a manga style. In November 18, the accounts were banned for being sockpuppets of Jhnnyboy341325 and arguably vandalizing.
Only time will tell if Jhnnyboy returns with any more of their beautiful vision. I hope they will.

There was a call coming through an outside line.
A priority call, Index noted, but not an emergency one. He glanced at his current ongoing tasklist, and as it was going slow at the moment (The Royal Guard, even after integrating many of the former Guard vode, really didn't get hurt a lot), he accepted the call.
"Oh, Your Majesty", he nodded his head as the call connected. "How can I be of help today?"
"Good morning, Index", Breha nodded back at him and smiled pleasantly. "I would like you to look up something for me, if it's not too much."
"Of course" Index said. "I'm assuming this is about Fox?" He was already opening Fox's files that he still had saved on the system.
"Yes", Breha said. "You have shared all of the information about his health during his service on Coruscant, but I was wondering if you had any files on him before that?"
"I have his training performance reviews and everything the medics on Kamino have written up", Index answered. "Was there something specific you wanted to know?"
"Do you have any information on when his birthday is?"
Index paused.
"I'm sorry?" He asked.
"Oh, right", Breha frowned just a little and maybe for a second, barely. "You had a different term for it, correct? Decanting date? I apologise for assuming anything."
Oh, right, indeed. This was not the first time someone had asked for their decanting dates while calling them birthdays, but it had been a while since the last one.
"I'm afraid that information was not extented to me on his files, when I became the CMO of the Guard", Index said. "It is considered to be part of the initial product line control infromation, and not health."
Now she did frown a lot more and a lot longer.
"I'm assuming I need to ask for that information from Kamino?" She asked.
"Most likely, yes", Index said. "I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help."
"No, no, you have helped plenty", Breha smoothed her expression again and then smiled at him. "Thank you. I was just filling out more paperwork, and well, of course we want to celebrate it with him. Though I do need it otherwise as well. The birthdays of the Royal Family are considered national holidays here."
Right. Index had to smile a little. Being a person and Royalty on top of it came with a lot of weird things, didn't it?
"I see", he said. "Well, once you know, would you like to relay the information forward? I'm sure the Guard and the rest of Fox's brothers would also love to celebrate it."
"I will", Breha gave him one last smile. "I will talk to you later. Have a nice rest of your day."
"You as well", Index nodded. He got back to his slow work after, though couldn't help but think back to the call for the rest of the day.
It would be nice to know when he had entered the world for once and for all. Kamino would just probably be a bit...difficult, when it came to releasing any information to anyone. Well, if anyone could get anything out of the long-necks, it would be Fox's riduurs. Stubborn they were, all three of them.

"What are you doing?"
Fox watched as Bail almost jumped on his chair.
"Ah", Bail said, blinking rapidly for a moment, before he seemed to gather himself enough to turn around in his chair and smile at Fox. "Hello, love. You startled me a little."
Fox raised his brow.
"If me walking into the room and speaking in a normal tone was enough to startle you, then it means that you are too tired and need to stop working", he said. "Do not make me a hypocrite."
"You wouldn't be a hypocrite", Bail said. "You have been so good with your work hours now."
"Yes, because you two keep dragging me off if I work even a couple of minutes overtime." They sure did. Every single time, with pleading eyes and soft smiles and gentle hands and words, telling him that you have already worked enough, please take at least a little break, you deserve the rest after all, please come here. "So I would be a hypocrite if I didn't do that as well. It's almost 1 in the morning. You told me you would be in bed soon over four hours ago."
He had fallen asleep for a couple of hours, and woken up to being cold and to an still empty bed.
Bail glanced at his desk. Fox decided to be a bit unfair.
"I came to Coruscant to see you", he said.
Bail sighed.
"Of course, my love", he said, finally getting up. "This has just...taken a lot of time."
"I'm sure", Fox said. Most things in Bail's line of work did. "What is it about? Short version."
"It's about getting the Vode an access to all their own information", Bail said. "Kamino is still on the stance that it can't make the information regarding cloning public, and thus is witholding all of your personal information on that basis. We're trying to argue that it's not about making the cloning information public, it's about giving you all the access to all the information regarding yourselves. Since, you are, all now considered sentients, and it's against the Republic law to withold personal information from any sentient being. Kamino can argue that it's not in the Republic officially, but they have gotten so much Republic funding and have a seat still in the Senate, that we think it's irrelevant if they are officially a member or not."
Fox nodded, slowly. He had not even thought about any of that, if he was being completely honest. There had been a lot of things to think about after the War, and access to some information he had not even thought existed had not been in the forefront of his mind.
Though, now, he thought it was only fair to have that. Even if he didn't think there was anything important in there for him, it could be more than beneficial for others.
"That is nice of you", he said, reaching up a little to press a kiss to the corner of Bail's mouth. "I appreciate it. But now, I would also appreciate my husband coming to sleep with me."
Bail laughed a bit.
"I'm coming", he said. "I'm sure the temperature of the bed is too low for your liking."
Fox rolled his eyes at the teasing look Bail was giving him.
"Damn right it is", he said. "So come on, I need it heated up."
---
There was a sound of movement coming next to her.
"Breha?" Fox's low, sleepy voice called. "Why are you up?"
Breha instantly lowered the brightness of her datapad.
"I'm sorry", she said, quietly, to not to wake Fox up more. "Just a little schedule issue I started to think about, nothing more."
"Okay", Fox mumbled. Even in the dimmer light, Breha could see him watching her. He looked utterly adorable like this, his hair ruffled from sleep and the blanket wrapped tightly around him all the way to his shoulders. His forehead was almost touching Breha's hip from how close he was laying to her, unconsciously always seeking her or Bail out.
Thank you, she said in her head to the Force, thank you for giving me not one but two cute husbands.
She quickly returned to her datapad, signing off the messages and plans she had open on the screen, and then closed the device. She pulled her own blanket up and laid down. She bit back a laugh when Fox immediately shuffled even closer and partially wrapped himself around her.
Breha pressed her head against his chest and listened to his heartbeat and already slowening breath, and despite the excitement running laps inside her, she let them lull her into easy sleep.
---
Fox woke up to a hand running gently down on his hair.
"Good morning, love", Bail's voice came from beside of him, and Fox opened his eyes.
He was met with Bail's smiling face. Fox blinked a couple of times, chasing off the sleep from his eyes.
"Morning", he answered, still a bit confused. "...when did you get here?"
He had spoken with him last night before going to sleep, and Bail had very much been on Coruscant then. But here he was now, very much so, on Alderaan and right in front of him, sitting at the edge of the bed.
"Just now", Bail answered. "I landed less than half an hour ago."
Fox smiled.
"That's nice", he said, because, it really was. It was always nice to have Bail and Breha both with him. "A nice surprise."
"It was supposed to be", Bail said. "Just for you, and I do have other surprised with me for you as well, though I those are more commonly called presents."
Now Fox was confused again.
"For me?" He asked. He finally sat up and rubbed his eyes. "What's the occasion?"
"Oh, nothing much", Bail said, with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Just your birthday."
Fox stared for a moment, his still half-asleep brain catching up to what was said.
"My...what?" He asked then.
"Your birthday", Bail repeated. "The bill of releasing your personal information for yourself went through last month. We as your next of kin had an access to the very basics, which included your decanting date."
Fox...didn't know what to say.
So, he first checked the date.
It was a strange feeling, to suddenly know that in this very day, he had come out of his growth tube, probably screaming his lungs off. Fox had known vaguely when it had happened, of course, as they had all been strictly grouped up with other vode of similar age, but still...the exact date had been unknown to him. Up until now.
Fox turned back towards Bail, who was still smiling, just very softly now.
"Happy birthday", Bail said, and leaned to press a kiss on Fox's forehead.
Oh. Fox suddenly felt- a bit emotional. He had never had a birthday before.
"Thank you", he said, and if Bail asked, he could pass on the scratchiness in his voice being because he had just woken up.
"Oh, we're awake now?" Breha was standing in the doorway to their bedroom, with a little tray in her hands. "Breakfast will be a bit later at the terrace, but bringing caf to bed on one's birthday is the spouse's job."
Bail moved out of the way a little, so Breha could lay down the tray in front of Fox on the bed. She had brought out his favorite cup. It was such a small thing, and Fox used the cup multiple times a week, but...
Breha leaned closer and kissed him on the cheek.
"Happy birthday, my love" she said to Fox's ear, and Fox really had to blink a few extra times.
"Thank you", he said, and took the cup. There were two other cups as well, and Breha took one, once she had climbed back onto the bed. Bail took a moment longer to go and open up the rest of the blinds on the windows, to let the bright, white morning light into the room fully, before he also sat back down on the bed and took a cup for himself.
"Your brothers will be here a bit later", Bail said. "I know most of them have been bursting at the seams for having to keep this a secret for a while now."
Oh, that Fox could imagine. He snorted.
"I will tell you now, somehow that is all my fault", he said. "For daring to be born on this specific date and not knowing it already."
Breha and Bail both laughed at that, and Fox took a sip from his caf. His favorite blend and a lot of sugar. Of course it was.
He smiled into his cup and definitely was not too emotional about it.
---
Fox opened the file.
There was a lot, and it seemed a lot of it was just about his very specific genetics and his cellular division during the embryotic stage. He skipped over those. He skimmed the pages about his growth once had started to resemble a human more, how he had gotten all of his organs and limbs and fingers and toes and everything just in time just like he should. A healthy, prime product, they called him.
Then he found what he had been looking for.
CC-1010 - Decanting Measurements and additional information
Height at the time of decanting: 52.3 centimeters (converted to the Republic Standard Unit of Measure)
Weight at the time of decanting: 3.389 kilograms (converted to the Republic Standard Unit of Measure)
Reflexes optimal, reactive to the standard. Initial eyesight and hearing tests passed up to the standard. Lung capacity optimal, vocal response as expected upon decanting, slight difficulties in quelling the vocal responses by the staff present. Activity high after decanting, the range of limbs optimal and up to standard. Additional note: activity above the standard after decanting, difficulties in securing the movements while transferring
Fox couldn't help but laugh. He really had come out to the Galaxy screaming, and, apparently also kicking.
Yeah, that sounded just right.

Myxoid liposarcoma of the spermatic cord: A rare entity by Emmanuel E. Sadava in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences
Abstract
An 81-year-old man consulted at our hospital for evaluation of a long-established left inguinal mass. The patient denied experiencing pain, food intolerance, constipation or urinary tract symptoms in the past. A physical examination revealed a 15x10cm painless mass in the left inguinal region, distinct from the testicle, with no palpable changes during Valsalva´s maneuver. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 79mm heterogeneous lesion of the spermatic cord which projected itself through the inguinal canal into the scrotal sac, displacing the testis inferiorly. Laboratory testings were negative for testicular tumor markers such as α fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin-β. A surgical resection of the inguinal tumor with an “en-bloc” inguinal orchiectomy was performed. The inguinal floor was repaired with a modified Bassini technique without the use of a mesh. The histopathological report confirmed findings were consistent with a myoxid liposarcoma. No further treatment was indicated and the patient continued follow-up with bi-annual MRIs. 18 months later, the patient continues with no signs of recurrence.
Key words: liposarcoma, liposarcoma of the spermatic chord, abdominal wall surgery, inguinal mass.
Introduction
Sarcomas constitute a heterogeneous group of rare solid tumors of mesenchymal cell origin. Collectively they account for approximately 1% of all adult malignancies with an annual incidence of 2.5 cases per million population[1]. In adults, the most common soft tissue sarcomas are liposarcomas. Overall, they account for approximately 17% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Most cases arise from de novo, therefore, the development from a preexisting benign lipoma is rare. Liposarcomas usually appear as a slowly enlarging, painless mass in a middle-aged person with a slightly higher incidence in men.
These tumors are classified in three main biologic forms: 1) well-differentiated liposarcoma; 2) myxoid and/or round cell; and 3) pleomorphic. The latter being a rare high-grade with a high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. The well-differentiated and myxoid types have favorable prognoses. However these tumors locally recur after incomplete excision[2].
The anatomic site of the primary disease represents an important prognostic factor, influencing treatment and outcome. Extremities (43%), the trunk (10%), visceral (19%), retroperitoneum (15%), or head and neck (9%) are the most common primary sites. Scrotal location is relatively rare, accounting for 3.6% of all liposarcomas. The origin of intra scrotal liposarcomas include the spermatic cord (76%), testicular tunic (20%), and the epididymis (4%).
Case Report
An 81-year-old man with a medical history of follicular cutaneous lymphoma and an open left hemi-colectomy for colon cancer consulted at our hospital for evaluation of a long-established left inguinal mass. The patient denied experiencing pain, food intolerance, constipation or urinary tract symptoms in the past. A physical examination revealed a 15x10cm painless mass in the left inguinal region, distinct from the testicle, with no palpable changes during Valsalva´s maneuver. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 79mm heterogeneous lesion of the spermatic cord which projected itself through the inguinal canal into the scrotal sac, displacing the testis inferiorly. Laboratory testings were negative for testicular tumor markers such as α fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin-β. Ultrasound-guided biopsies of the mass were requested and their histopathology analysis revealed myxoid stroma with fusocelular proliferation.
A radical resection was suggested but, a week prior to the surgical procedure, the patient was diagnosed with COVID infection during which he intercurred with myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke. He underwent a double coronary angioplasty with drug-eluted stents and required anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy posteriorly. The case was discussed at a multidisciplinary meeting and a conservative management of the inguinal tumor was decided. The patient was reassessed 12 month later with a new MRI, which showed the inguinal mass increased in size (99mm) compared to the previous study, and a computed tomography (CT) with no evidence of metastatic disease. A surgical resection of the inguinal tumor with an “en-bloc” inguinal orchiectomywas performed. The inguinal floor was repaired with a modified Bassini technique without the use of a mesh. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day two.
The histopathological report confirmed a 130x120x120mm low-grade fibro myxoid neoplasm. The surgical margins were negative. Immunohistochemistry showed strong reactivity for S100 and vimentin, whereas SOX10, desmin, CD34 and estrogen receptors were negative. These findings were consistent with a myoxid liposarcoma. No further treatment was indicated and the patient continued follow-up with bi-annual MRIs. 18 months later, the patient continues with no signs of recurrence.
Discussion
Liposarcomas invade through local extension and rarely invade through the lymphatic route, making regional lymph node dissection lose its value and having no impact on survival. Nevertheless, high-grade subtypes are associated with high rates of recurrence and hematogenous spread; lungs, liver and peritoneum being the most common sites of metastasis. Surgical resection (with appropriate negative margins: >1cm) is the standard primary treatment in most patients with stromal cell sarcomas. Complete tumor resection is the primary prognostic factor for local recurrence, and liposarcomas are not the exception. Performing an “en-bloc” resection involving a high orchiectomy (including the surrounding tissue) is important to obtain negative margins [1].
Local recurrence rates for sarcomas, including liposarcomas of the spermatic cord, have been reported to be as high as 30-50%. Because of this, and despite the patient’s disease-free status, long term follow-up remains a crucial step in the detection of recurrences that might still be potentially curable. Current controversy arises on the use of adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Being a rare and infrequent entity makes it hard for a single institution to accumulate enough cases to perform prospective randomized controlled trials. Extrapolated data from retrospective analyses support the use of adjuvant radiation on selected high-risk situations (tumor recurrence, high-grade tumors or residual disease). Concerning the role of chemotherapy, the use of adjuvant chemotherapy remains controversial and there is no definitive role in the management of localized liposarcomas[3].
In conclusion, myxoid liposarcomas of the spermatic cord are infrequent entities. As most soft tissue sarcomas, they have an indolent course and should be considered as a differential diagnosis of inguinal masses with no palpable changes during Valsalva´s maneuver. Complete surgical resection with high-orchidectomy “en-bloc” is encouraged.

it's kinda weird that when you look at health recommendations for various medical conditions associated with fatness it's always 'just lose 10% of your body weight to see a risk reduction' (so like 20-30 pounds for the average overweight or obese person according to the bmi) but then in day to day medicine there's not really a way of like, removing obesity as a diagnosis on your insurance paperwork for example, even if by a certain standard you've lost enough weight to reduce the risk of health conditions that insurance would be concerned about. if you're an average height weighing 300 pounds and lose 30 pounds, which seems to be the amount that's considered reasonable to lose and maintain if you want to like, reduce your cholesterol, you've gone from morbidly obese to morbidly obese.
#beyond like the more pervasive stigma that i think has been around for a lot of history around fatness#i think the biggest reason behind the current concern over obesity in the US especially is uh. capitalism#there's always this addition about look at how much money these people cost us!! and its like who's us. insurance companies?#idk one one hand it's nice to see that medical science is maybe being kinder now than when i was an overweight 11 year old lmao#like when i was a kid it was hey this index that is not accurate for your age and sex says you need to lose 15 pounds#and then constant badgering about it until i got sick dropped 5 pounds and fit the graph better or whatever#and then i continued to gain weight for the next 7 years until i treated my insulin resistance#but i genuinely got worse and stricter treatment as overweight than morbidly obese because i think now that I'm 250 and an adult#they're like yeah you're just fat we're not going to bother beyond the legally required warnings#also when i was 11 it was uhhhh 2016 so middle of the obama admin when fat kids were the topic du jour#but the way they talked about it was like if I didn't stay under 130 pounds for the rest of my life i might as well drop dead#so seeing hey if you lose like 25 pounds you're good and you don't need to drop over 100 is. Comparatively better#still shitty advice for insulin resistant people IMO but whatever

Managing Obesity: Tips for a Healthier Lifestyle
Obesity is a major health problem affecting millions of people worldwide. This is a condition in which excess body fat builds up in the body, leading to a variety of health problems such as diabetes, heart disease, and certain types of cancer. It can be treated with medical intervention. This blog post will go into detail about different ways to treat obesity.
Diet
One of the most important factors in managing obesity is diet. A healthy and balanced diet is essential for maintaining a healthy weight. It is important to eat a variety of nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and foods high in saturated and trans fats.
Exercise
Physical activity is also important in managing obesity. Exercise helps burn calories, improve muscle mass, and boost metabolism. It is recommended to aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week. This can be achieved through activities such as brisk walking, cycling, swimming, or strength training.
Behavioral changes
Making behavioral changes can also help manage obesity. This includes setting realistic goals, monitoring progress, and staying motivated. It is important to identify triggers for overeating and develop strategies to overcome them. Seeking support from friends and family, joining a support group, or consulting with a healthcare professional can also be helpful.
Medications
In some cases, medications may be prescribed to manage obesity. These medications work by reducing appetite, blocking the absorption of fat, or increasing feelings of fullness. However, medications should always be used in combination with diet and exercise.
Surgery
For those with severe obesity, surgery may be an option. Bariatric surgery is a type of surgery that can help reduce weight and improve overall health.

Index: Commander got hurt two days ago. They were chasing two suspects in a speeder in high speed, and since our speeders are... not always in tip-top shape, the door Commander was leaning on opened by itself
Index: He went hurling out pretty fast, and, by Corporal Brass's description, did "more volts than the trapetze artist that got stuck in their own tigthrope we had to go and rescue last month"
Index: Anyway, Commander proceeds to get up, run after the speeder, take it down and apprehend both suspects. He said his arm was just a bit sore, and he seemed coherent, so they let him slip out from a healthcheck. Commander Thorn brought him in the next morning because he had said something about his 'neck hurting' before he fell asleep
Index: Turns out that Commander had completely shattered his collarbone and proceeded to just...ignore it? I need to check his adrenalin levels... *muttering*
Index: Anyway, I knit the bone back to its original shape, but left it in a sling, for at least a week, so he can take a break from fieldwork at least. And he did, I swear! And I only gave him some mild painkillers. Mild.
Index: So I am not really sure how this happened
(Bullet, standing at the bottom of a very high transmission tower: Commander! What the kriff are you doing?!
Fox, not in full armor and on top of the tower, his arm still in a sling: Look, Bullet, there was-
Bullet, losing his mind: I don't care why you are up there! HOW DID YOU GET UP THERE??!)
Thire, just back from an escort mission:
Index:
Thire:
Index:
Thire: *sigh*
#bullet needs some of those mild painkillers after this#so does thire#based on the story of how I broke my collarbone from two separate places#and proceeded to just ignore it#and then with my arm in a sling I climbed a tree so high that my dad had to get a ladder to get me down#Index needs to check a lot of things about fox before he gives him anything#that boy is not okay#commander fox#commander thire#clone medic oc: Index#clone medic oc: Bullet#coruscant guard#sw#tcw
