"Well being: Four Forms of Numericide
Medicine confuses surrogate markers with actual health outcomes."
"... A laboratory value is information. It is not a diagnosis in isolation, and it certainly is not a patient. Medicine works best when physicians use these measurements as pieces of a much larger biological picture rather than treating every person who crosses an arbitrary threshold as another candidate for pharmaceutical intervention.
That is ultimately the most valuable lesson in Cassels’ essay.
We should know our numbers. But we should also know what they actually mean, what our absolute risk is, how much a proposed intervention is likely to change that risk, and what that intervention may cost us in adverse effects and quality of life."
