Medicalization and epistemic injustice
TL;DR: It is suggested that arguments against medicalization are valuable insofar as they highlight the unwarranted epistemic privilege frequently afforded to medical institutions and medicalized models of phenomena, and a consequent need for greater epistemic humility on the part of health workers and researchers.

TL;DR: This study provides Class III evidence that for patients with TLOC, patient and witness questionnaires discriminate between syncope, epilepsy and PNES, and a tool based on patient symptoms/comorbidities and witness reports separates well betweensyncope and other common causes of TLOC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Authenticity and autonomy in deep-brain stimulation
TL;DR: Kraemer's argument highlights the shortcomings of practical applications of respect for autonomy that emphasise competence while neglecting other important dimensions of autonomy such as authenticity, since it shows that competence alone cannot be interpreted as a reliable indicator of an individual's capacity for exercising autonomy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic criteria to aid the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with transient loss of consciousness: A systematic review
TL;DR: There is a lack of validated diagnostic criteria to help clinicians assessing patients in primary or emergency care settings to discriminate between common causes of TLOC, and performance may be improved by combining sets of criteria in a clinical decision rule.
