Improving the quality of publications on structural racism in healthcare

In 2021 the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that
structural racism was a public health threat.1 In January 2022 The BMJ
considered how to solve a problem as entrenched as racism in health
research.23Unfortunately, there are challenges to creating and disseminating
scholarship on racism in the academic medical literature. We have made
recommendations for editors to enhance the review and selection process to
facilitate more frequent publication of articles on structural racism in
medicine.4 Our main recommendations are:Clinical journal editors need to
eliminate publication and readership barriers for articles discussing structural
racism in medicine—currently, high publication and subscription fees
disproportionately affect access to these articles56Clinical journal editors
should recruit and compensate experts in structural racism to serve as editors,
editors-in-chief, editorial board members, and peer reviewers Journals should
ensure diversity and inclusivity at all levels of the publication process by
collecting and providing anonymous demographic data... + Read more
Women’s health: specific assessments to become mandatory in medical
training

Specific teaching and assessments on women’s health will become mandatory for
all graduating medical students from 2024 and for all incoming doctors, the
government has pledged as part of its first women’s health strategy for
England.The Department of Health and Social Care said the strategy “sets bold
ambitions to tackle deep rooted, systemic problems within the health and care
system to improve the health and wellbeing of women and reset how the health and
care system listens to women.”The strategy, published on 20 July, contains a
commitment to commission research by the National Institute for Health and Care
Research (NIHR) on women’s health, together with the establishment of a new
policy research unit on reproductive health. The research will tackle data gaps,
identify barriers to women participating in research, and improve the quality of
data collected by the NHS.The strategy also promises a new reproductive health
experience survey carried out... + Read more
Quebec doctors’ letter forces government rethink on polluted cancer black
spot

An open letter from 50 local physicians has brought promises of government
action in an industrial Quebec town where cancer levels and life expectancy have
long been the worst in the province, and where a foundry is permitted to emit 33
times the normal provincial limit of arsenic.The town of Rouyn-Noranda grew up
around the Fonderie Horne, named after the prospector who found copper there in
1917. The foundry makes copper anodes, using both metal from the mine and from
old electronics heated to very high temperatures. It is the biggest emitter of
toxic metals in Canada.For decades the provincial government has been aware of
an unusually high burden of lung cancer in Rouyn-Noranda, which also has
Quebec’s lowest life expectancy and highest proportion of underweight
births.Although other regions have higher smoking rates, Rouyn-Noranda saw 140.3
cases of lung cancer per 100 000 population from 2013 to 2017, compared with...

David Oliver: My personal pandemic experience is just one of many

I rarely write about my personal experiences, but practising medicine during the
covid pandemic has finally given me the motivation. I’m just one of hundreds of
thousands of clinical and care staff who have lived through it all, and my story
is no more important than anyone else’s. But I’d still like to tell it.I came
into the pandemic already tired from three decades as an NHS doctor working on
big, busy hospital wards and the acute medical take, combining it all with many
external national roles. Ideally, I wanted a break from medicine. I’d seen the
reports from China, northern Italy, and the US about the impact of covid. By
February 2020—when the chief executive of NHS England, the health secretary, and
the chief medical officer were fielding stories from the press—I could see the
writing on the wall, despite politicians’ desire to play down the scale of
the... + Read more

erythematosus (SLE) (fig 1).bmj;378/jul20_7/e070553/F1F1f1Fig 1She presented
with a two day history of fever, headache, and new lesions on the hands, neck,
and face. She had a background of SLE for which she had been taking
corticosteroids, azathioprine, and hydroxychloroquine for two years, but was
taking no other medications. Examination revealed erythematous, annular,
target-like papuloplaques on the hands, face, and neck with lip ulcers.
Serological tests for mycoplasma, herpes simplex virus, cytomegalovirus, and
Epstein-Barr virus were negative.The diagnosis of Rowell syndrome requires the
presence of three major criteria: erythema multiforme-like targetoid lesions,
histological and serological evidence of SLE, and a speckled pattern of
anti-nuclear antibodies, all present in this patient. At least one of the minor
criteria must also be present for diagnosis, including the presence of
chilblains; anti-Ro(SS-A) (present in this patient) or anti-La(SS-B); and... +
