Patients deceiving doctors for prescriptions; characteristics of chronic pain seekers in primary care versus specialty settings; potential overuse of antidepressants when depression screening instruments are used; improving smoking quit rates through anger/stress management training; using immunoglobulin G levels to diagnose and follow eradication of Helicobacter pylori; patient- and family-friendly gentle cesarean deliveries; plus the economic impact of family physicians delivering babies … quite a line-up this issue.
