TL;DR: Although physicians were as likely to have experimented with illicit substances in their lifetime as their age and gender peers in society, they were far less likely to be current users of illicit substances and the higher prevalence of alcohol use among respondents may be more a characteristic of their socioeconomic class than of their profession.

TL;DR: In the survey of terminally ill patients, family members, usually women, provided the majority of assistance with nonmedical care, and very few had assistance from volunteers.

TL;DR: A pilot survey of one third-year medical school class was carried out to explore student perceptions of mistreatment and professional misconduct in medical school training, indicating that students perceive mistreatment to be pervasive andprofessional misconduct all too common.

TL;DR: Regression analyses suggest that satisfaction with the residency experience was associated with the presence of factors that enhanced learning, and fewer experiences of perceived mistreatment, as well as positive learning experiences and lack of mistreatment.

TL;DR: About 5% of the medical students surveyed reported cheating during the first two years of medical school, and students appeared resigned to the fact that cheating is impossible to eliminate, but they lacked any clear consensus about how to proceed when they became aware of cheating by others.
