But if we're serious about preventing such horrors in the future, we have to go beyond condemnation. | A lesson we ignore at our peril is that oppression undermines not only the rights, dignity, and lives of the oppressed, but eventually the security of the oppressors as well. The apartheid system that's been suffocating Palestinians for so long is now also undermining the safety…

However, we have concerns we wish to address. In the original manuscript, the authors noticed there were significantly higher hospital readmission rates (p=0 ∑002) and shorter postoperative lengths of stay (3 days in the 2-day group vs 5 days in the 5-day group; p<0 ∑0001) in the 2-day group in comparison with those in the 5-day group (as in table 3 of the appendix of the Article1).

Dimitrios Moris, Theodore Pappas (2023-10-14).

They showed that shorter duration is clinically non-inferior. We would like to congratulate the authors for this potentially practice-changing trial.1 We have a few comments regarding the study design and some of its conclusions. First, as well described in the literature, in patients who are clinically stable and non-toxic with perforated appendicitis or phlegmon,…

Jiahao Meng and Shuguang Gao discuss the short-term complications in the 2-day antibiotics group. Similarly, Bing-Syuan Zeng and colleagues emphasise that the increased readmission rate in the 2-day group should not be overlooked. We agree that the increased readmission rate in the 2-day group calls for further analysis. Contrastingly, the readmissions did not necessarily represent severe adverse events. The decision to readmit a patient was made by the physician on call and was based on clinical judgement in our pragmatic trial.

Comment] Offline: Scientific journals—irrational, perhaps, but necessary. thelancet.com I bought Ken Rothman's book Modern Epidemiology in 1995 and took his course on the "Theory and Practice of Epidemiology" at Tufts University a few months later. I felt then, and still feel now, that his text, first published in 1986, has biblical importance for anyone trying to interpret the growing mass of new (and often doubtful) research published in medical journals. Several quotes deserve headlining. One example: "Hypotheses are not generated by data; they are proposed by scientists." The contingency of the human imagination is a more powerful determinant of progress than we like to admit.

Sally Frampton, Roger Kneebone (2023-10-07). Perspectives] The Lancet: an archive of surgical history. thelancet.com From the first days of The Lancet 200 years ago, surgery has had a central role in its existence. The journal has acted as a nerve centre, linking surgical innovation by individuals with challenge and debate in the wider profession.

Looking back over two centuries, the journal's many research articles, letters, and commentaries relating to surgery provide an invaluable insight that goes far beyond specific discoveries or breakthroughs.

The Lancet's mission to expose medical corruption was inextricably linked with Wakley's own political inclinations, and he is justly lauded for his pioneering role in socially driven medical jo…

Comment] The Lancet at 200 years: a timeless mission to drive positive social change through advancing medical research and science. thelancet.com The Lancet was founded in 1823 by Thomas Wakley with the vision to drive positive social change by advancing medical research and science for the greater good, by addressing inequities of the time with access to medical knowledge for "medical and surgical practitioners" in the UK and the British colonies (as they were referred to at the time), and by being more than a medical journal. The Lancet has remained true to its core mission to drive positive social change, which is as relevant today as it was groundbreaking then, through the past two centuries amid seismic changes in our world.

Mamadu Baldeh, Samuel Kizito (2023-10-07). Correspondence] Call to action: HIV among adolescents in Sierra Leone. thelancet.com Sierra Leone, a west African country with an approximate population of 8 ∑5 million people, is experiencing a steady increase in HIV prevalence, despite a low national HIV prevalence of 1 ∑7%.1 The country's vulnerability to an HIV epidemic is compounded by many risk factors, such as poverty, economic deprivation, and a history marred by a decade-long civil strife and an Ebola virus outbreak that claimed more than 4000 lives.2 These collective adversities pose major obstacles to effective HIV prevention and control measures, particularly among the population aged up to 24 years.

Comment] Equity, transparency, and accountability: open science for the 21st century. thelancet.com Knowledge is essential to saving lives and improving wellbeing. The term open science has been applied to improving the transparency of knowledge generation, but open science also has the potential to address many of the problems of inequity, inaccuracy, and misconduct that plague research, as well as to build public trust.1…

Richard Horton (2023-10-07). Comment] Offline: Scientific journals—irrational, perhaps, but necessary. thelancet.com I bought Ken Rothman's book Modern Epidemiology in 1995 and took his course on the "Theory and Practice of Epidemiology" at Tufts University a few months later. I felt then, and still feel now, that his text, first published in 1986, has biblical importance for anyone trying to interpret the growing mass of new (and often doubtful) research published in medical journals. Several quotes deserve headlining. One example: "Hypotheses are not generated by data; they are proposed by scientists." The contingency of the human imagination is a more powerful determinant of progress than we like to admit.

Sally Frampton, Roger Kneebone (2023-10-07). Perspectives] The Lancet: an archive of surgical history. thelancet.com From the first days of The Lancet 200 years ago, surgery has had a central role in its existence. The journal has acted as a nerve centre, linking surgical innovation by individuals with challenge and debate in the wider profession. Such innovation shapes and is shaped by the social and political context of its time. Looking back over two centuries, the journal's many research articles, letters, and commentaries relating to surgery provide an invaluable insight that goes far beyond specific discoveries or breakthroughs.

Sally Frampton, Roger Kneebone (2023-10-07). Perspectives] Beyond Thomas Wakley: invisible actors and hidden voices in The Lancet during the 19th century. thelancet.com In 1893 The Lancet published an editorial reflecting on the legacy of its first Editor, Thomas Wakley, who led the journal from its inception in 1823 to his death in 1862. The Lancet was, the article proclaimed, "the 'incarnation' of Thomas Wakley". In the years after Wakley's death, this version of The Lancet's history cemented and stuck. His name remains integral to the journal to this day, as in the annual Wakley Prize. The Lancet's mission to expose medical corruption was inextricably linked with Wakley's own political inclinations, and he is justly lauded for his pioneering role in socially driven medical jo…

Sania Nishtar, Amn Nasir, Mohamed Abdi Jama, Jeanette Vega, Wesam Qaid, K Srinath Reddy (2023-10-07). Comment] The Lancet's enduring legacy: speaking truth to power. thelancet.com When Thomas Wakley founded The Lancet 200 years ago, the publication was labelled as "aggressive, offensive and radical" in science.1 Speaking up against "incompetence, privilege, and nepotism" the journal inevitably caused controversy. Since then, while The Lancet has grown to be among the most celebrated and revered sources of scientific knowledge, it has stayed true to its roots with a commitment to equity and accountability.

Scott H Podolsky (2023-10-07). Perspectives] The Lancet and the medical journal as an instrument of reform. thelancet.com Delivering a valedictory address in 1963 on "Crisis in Communication: the Functions and Future of Medical Journals", longtime Lancet Editor Theodore "Robbie" Fox (1899—1989) described the differentiated roles that medical journals have had in shaping the medical profession and society since the founding of The Lancet in 1823. Journals have served as "medical recorders", repositories of knowledge, whether for immediate communication or long-term reference, for the advancement of medical knowledge.

Sean Cleghorn (2023-10-07). Perspectives] Comma crunching: a week at The Lancet. thelancet.com A week at The Lancet tends to start on a Wednesday. Much of what the journal publishes these days is made available online as soon as it is ready, days or weeks before it is bundled up into an issue and dropped through a reader's letterbox or into an inbox. But the old weekly print cycle, which starts to gear up on a Wednesday, still dictates the rhythm of how The Lancet works. That momentum—the "dum…dum…dum…" repeated beat of issues going to press 51 times per year—has gone largely unbroken for two centuries.
