Reading for uncertainty instead of certainty
Medicine often requires decisions before every fact is available. Narrative writing can help readers practice tolerating that uncertainty, provided ambiguity is not converted into a sales claim or a declaration of proof.

- 3.Was the account recorded close to the event or reconstructed much later?
- 4.Does a quoted number link to a source that actually supports that number?
- 5.Are publication date, authorship, and editorial review status visible?
