Annals of Internal Medicine:"Established in 1927 by the American College of Physicians (ACP), the Annals of Internal Medicine is the leading journal for studies in internal medicine. The purpose of the journal–to promote excellence in the clinical practice of internal medicine–is supported by presentation of a wide variety of experimental and clinical subject matter in the Article, Brief Communication, Update, and Review formats. And to support the belief that physicians should also be well-informed citizens of both the medical community and society at large, Annals offers background and discussion of issues that influence both physicians and patients. This information is primarily carried in the Perspective, In the Balance, and Editorial formats. In addition, the journal presents personal narratives in the On Being a Doctor and the On Being a Patient formats that convey the feeling and the art of medicine."

Indian Journal of Medical Ethics, Doctor, is your writing legible? Animesh Jain, Prateek Rastogi:"Today, computers are used in every field of work including medicine. Despite the computer revolution, however, a great deal of information in clinical records in hospitals continues to be handwritten. The doctor may understand what he/she has written, but difficulties arise when other parties are involved.
The handwriting of healthcare professionals in general and doctors in particular has been known to be illegible and difficult to decipher (1). In India, as in most other parts of the world, it is generally accepted that doctors have handwriting which needs some skill to decipher. Yet the importance of a doctor`s handwriting cannot be overemphasised. Pharmacists and nurses have to read the physician`s prescription to dispense and administer the correct medication to patients. Patients need to understand the prescription to take proper and timely treatment. In one study, 117 case notes were examined and 18 (15%) were so illegible that the meaning was unclear (1). Another study suggests that doctors, even when asked to be as neat as possible, produce handwriting that is worse than that of other professionals (2). This provides supportive evidence for the commonly held belief that the legibility of doctors` handwriting is unusually poor."
