10 Rules to Expose Medical Junk News 

 

 

Medical Reporting Rules to live (or die) by: (click here for background)

 

1)   How available is the treatment/test/product/procedure to the likely reader/viewer/listener at the time of the report?

2)   What is the cost or charge for the test/treatment/product or procedure mentioned in the story? To the patient? The insurance company? The government?

3)   Is there evidence of disease mongering in the story? Does it oversell or exaggerate a condition or create unwarranted fear?

4)   Does the story seem to grasp and convey the quality of the evidence supporting the basis for the study?

5)   Does the article provide appropriate balance about harms that might be caused by the treatment/test/product/procedure that constitutes the basis for the story?

6)   Does the story establish the true novelty of the approach? Much that is purported to be new, really is not.

7)   How does the story frame the relative quantitative value of a new treatment, test, product, or procedure and place the benefits in context with others, especially dealing with absolute and relative values?

8)   Did the author and editor of the medical news story rely solely or largely on a press release or did they also seek and quote other sources?

9)   Was there an independent source and were any possible conflicts of interests of sources disclosed in the article?

10)  Does the story provide the context of treatment/test/product/procedure other than those that are being reported?

How NOT to Treat 'Strep Throat'

"One million prescriptions for antibiotics for sore throat may prevent one case of rheumatic fever. But they may cause 2,400 cases of significant allergic reactions up to and including anaphylaxis, 50,000 to 100,000 cases of diarrhea and some 100,000 cases of skin rash.

Once an axiom, and still recommended by the American Heart Association, the use of antibiotics to treat strep throat can now be characterized a pseudoaxiom -- a false premise, masquerading as truth, and passed down from generation to generation, brainlessly.

 

Physicians should not prescribe antibiotics for sore throats, or for that matter, acute bronchitis. Nor need they do throat cultures."
