1. The Government reviewed the norms and conditions laid down in the above 4 G.Os for starting of Para Medical Courses by Private Organisations especially in backward and rural areas in this State and decided to take a policy decision.

2. In the G.O. fifth read above, the Government constituted a committee consisting of eminent experts in Medical Department with instructions to sent its report to frame revised / new guidelines to grant permission to Private Organisations for starting of Para Medical Courses . The committee met on 24.8.2001 and sent its report. The committee has observed that since guidelines for granting permission to various para medical course are already available, some new conditions relevant to the present time are to be included in the existing guidelines laid down in the above Government Orders.

3. The Government have examined the recommendation of the committee including general conditions suggested by the committee for granting permission for starting of Para Medical Courses by Self Financing Private Organisations/Registered Trusts/Registered Societies and decided to accept the recommedations and suggestions except few modification. Accordingly the Government issue the following orders:-

(a) There are more number of private institutions offering Para Medical Educational courses in the Districts of Coimbatore, Chennai city, Salem, Erode, Madurai, Trichy, Thanjavur, Kanyakumari, and Tiruvallore. In the southern districts like Sivagangai, Ramnad, Virudunagar, Karur, Pudukottai Thiruvarur, Nagai, Perambalur, Ariyalur, Villupuram, Theni, Nilgiris, Dindigul, Cuddalore, Tuticorin, as well as in Kancheepuram only a few institutions are available and the required number of institutions are not available resulting inconvenience to students of that rural area. Hence, the institutions which are willing to start para medical educational courses in the above needy districts and backward areas will be given preference.

(b) The private institutions which are able to provide 150 bedded own hospital for Nursing/BPT/BOT courses and 75 bedded own hospital for other courses should alone be considered, since such hospitals are quite essential requirement for clinical training of their students. However attachment of Hospitals may be allowed, but the same hospitals should not be shown by any other institutions.

(c) Request from a trust already running paramedical courses which applies again to start paramedical courses in the same area under a new different Trusts name consisting the same members as trustees or their nearest blood relationship such applications will not be considered since it will result in monopoly of a single set of trustees or institutions in that particular area and also in the particular course.

(d) It is further ordered that as a general policy of government while granting permission to start paramedical courses by private institutions applications received from the Registered Trust/ Registered Society/Registered Charitable Trust /Registered Charitable Society alone will be given preference.

4.The Government also issue relevant amendments to the following Government Orders on the recommendation of the committee in the annexure noted against each of Government Orders

4.From the Director of Medical Education letter No.53968/ME.I /3/ 2001 dated 17.7.2001

1. In the G.O. 2nd read above, orders were issued among others framing guidelines to consider the requests of private Organisation for issue of Essentiality Certificate to start Medical / Dental college in the State The Government have reviewed the existing guidelines and constituted a committee to suggest norms for issue of Essentiality Certificate to start Medical / Dental college in the backward areas of the State by private organisations keeping in view of the norms of Medical Council of India / Dental Council of India, New Delhi.

2. The Government have examined the recommendations of the committee. The Ninth Plan Targets for the Doctor - Patient ratio is fixed at 1 :1000 . The present Doctor patient ratio is 1:2000. Due to the present ratio, shortage of Doctors in Rural Areas is felt. It would be prohibitively expensive to open more number of colleges in the State Sector and therefore it is decided to consider the request of the private organisation for issue of NOC to start Medical and Dental Colleges in backward areas of the State. The starting of new Institutions would also go a long way in improving the Medical facilities in these areas. A large number of students from the State are going to neighbouring States to pursue Medical studies and the students will be able to pursue their studies nearer to their homes.

3. In modification of the orders issued in the Government Order 2nd read above the Government direct the Director of Medical Education

(i) to consider the requests of private organisations for issue of Essentiality Certificate to start Medical /Dental college in the Backward / rural areas of the State and send proposals to the Government with his specific recommendation after making an Inspection by a team of Professors. The Inspection Team shall be requested to take in to with consideration of the Medical Council of India / Dental Council of India norms as mentioned in the annexure and make their specific recommendation.

(ii) the issue of Essentiality Certificate shall be considered in the locations where the Government could not come forward to open new colleges in Backward areas of the State.

(iii) the 100 k.ms limit from the existing college as per the existing guidelines will not be insisted upon if the proposed location is backward and rural area.

4.The Director of Medical Education shall take necessary follow up action as suggested in para 3 above.

Asia accounts 60% of world's suicide. India, china and Japan accounts for 40% of their number.

What are meant by Suicide, Attempted suicide and Para suicide?

Suicide:-The term suicide is used to denote self-planned and deliberate termination of one's life. It is as old as mankind and is indeed a giant puzzle. It is a paradox why humans who love to live a full life turn to self destruction.

Attempted suicide :-

Among those who attempt suicide, a few succeed, but some survive due to timely intervention of chance factors in spite of best planning and clear cut intention to die. They are known as Attempted suicide.

Para suicide :-

It is an impulsive act of self injurious behaviour without any prior planning or intent to die. The harm to self may be done by inflicting injury or consuming a substance. It is otherwise known as Deliberate Self-Harm (DSH)

A Person who tries to terminate his life with real intent may survive. So much so, an individual who injure himself impulsively without any real intent to die may lose his life.

Introduction

OpenAI’s ChatGPT, a leading large language model (LLM), has shown promise for medical purposes. The program can pass the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and the Japanese Medical Licensing Exam (JMLE) [ 1 - 3 ]. However, previous studies regarding this software have focused on its text-based capabilities. ChatGPT-4 Vision (ChatGPT-4V), announced on September 25, 2023, includes image input features, potentially expanding the medical applications of the program [ 4 ]. To assess the multimodal performance of ChatGPT-4V in medicine, its performance on JMLE questions involving clinical images and tables was tested.

ChatGPT-4V was used to complete the 117th JMLE in the Japanese language (Figure S1 in Multimedia Appendix 1 ). Its responses were compared to the passing criteria and mean human examinee score of the JMLE. This study, conducted from October 12 to 14, 2023, used the September 25, 2023, version of the LLM (ChatGPT-4V) with a knowledge cutoff date of January 2022 ( Multimedia Appendix 2 [ 5 ]). Human examinees’ correct response rates were obtained from statistics based on reports from actual JMLE examinees, calculated by medu4, a preparatory school for the JMLE [ 5 , 6 ].

Statistical Analysis

The mean and 95% CIs of the test scores are provided. A one-sample proportion test was used to compare the correct response rate of the human examinees with that of ChatGPT-4V. Statistical significance was set at P <.05 for all 2-tailed tests. All statistical analyses were conducted using Stata statistical software (version 17; StataCor).

Ethical Considerations

This study used previously available web-based data and did not include human participants. Therefore, Shimane University’s Institutional Review Board did not mandate ethics approval.

Evaluation Outcomes

The responses to 386 questions from the 117th JMLE were used in this study. Using the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare criteria, GPT-4V scored 85.1% on the essential knowledge section and 76.5% on the other sections of the JMLE, meeting the passing criteria [6]. For text-only questions, ChatGPT-4V achieved a correct response rate of 84.5%, similar to the mean human examinee score ( Table 1 ). The correct response rate for questions with images was 71.9% for ChatGPT-4V, 13.1 points below the mean human examinee score ( P <.001). The correct response rate for questions with tables (including figures) was 35.0% for ChatGPT-4V, which was significantly lower than the mean human examinee score (83.9%; P <.001).

a The correct response rates of human examinees are based on a survey of actual human examinees, reported by medu4, a preparatory school for the JMLE [ 5 ].

Principal Results

Although ChatGPT-4V demonstrated proficiency in text-centric questions, the correct response rates were significantly lower for image and table-oriented questions. ChatGPT-4V may have poorer text comprehension skills compared to ChatGPT-4, even when image processing is not required [ 7 ]. Additionally, a language bias may obscure the image context when interpreting images and texts simultaneously, potentially leading to an overreliance on prior text information, even when it contradicts the image context, a phenomenon called “hallucination” [ 8 ]. These factors may have led to ChatGPT-4V’s lower rate of correct responses to questions involving images.

Furthermore, responding to questions with tables requires interpreting the Japanese characters within the tables. OpenAI has verified that its GPT-4V model misrecognizes symbols, including image characters [ 4 ]. Previous studies have noted that GPT-4V relies on text-based information rather than an analysis of tables when answering questions [ 8 ]. In addition, the program’s performance diminishes when interpreting characters in non-Latin languages [ 9 ]. These factors may explain the observed decline in performance when interpreting tables containing Japanese characters.

The multimodal LLM GPT-4V is unreliable in interpreting information presented in image or tables, especially for medical purposes [ 4 ]. Further development of the program is required for diagnostic applications.

Limitations

This study has several limitations. First, different results may be obtained even when using the same methods owing to the inherent randomness of ChatGPT or version changes in ChatGPT. A report indicates that test results can vary with repeated responses from ChatGPT [ 10 ]. Furthermore, when providing images to ChatGPT, we did not remove blank spaces, indicating that the quality of images sent to ChatGPT could also affect the outcomes. Second, the JMLE includes options that, if selected twice or more, will result in failure. However, these options are not publicly disclosed, making them unaccounted for in this study [ 5 ]. Finally, although this study focused on ChatGPT, ongoing advancements in other multimodal LLMsshould also be considered.

Conclusions

ChatGPT-4V successfully passed the 117th JMLE, demonstrating proficiency in handling including image- and table-based questions. However, more developments are needed to improve its ability to interpret tables. Further research should assess the safety and efficacy of ChatGPT-4V as a multimodal LLM in supporting medical practice, facilitating learning in clinical environments and advancing medical education.

On May 13 th , 85 members of the Department of Family Medicine and other departments across the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences gathered to attend the 9 th annual McGill Family Medicine Research Symposium, organized by the Family Medicine Graduate Student Society. This year’s theme, Improving Sustainability in Primary Care , was highlighted by an enlightening keynote address and a multidisciplinary panel. The event was held at the Students’ Society of McGill University, University Centre and involved 16 oral presentations and 10 posters from medical students, research assistants, and undergraduate students, in addition to McGill’s graduate students. A big congratulations to the six prize winners who earned recognition for their quality presentations!

The symposium started with introductions to the various concentrations and programs offered in the Department of Family Medicine, including Medical Education, CIET-PRAM, Global Health, and Indigenous Health. The various program directors and their representatives were invited on stage to give an introductory elevator pitch about their programs, reflecting the diversity and versatility of offerings provided by the department.

Marion Dove, Chair of the Department of Family Medicine, then shared her opening remarks and some thoughtful insights on what sustainable initiatives can look like within the Department, how this differs from the mainstream definition of sustainability, and what practical actions we might take within the primary care context as both patients and providers to create meaningful impact.

Thank you to the Symposium Organizing Committee, namely Raphaela Nikolopoulos, Nia Kang, Karen Wassef, Maysaloun Mokaddam, Yasmine Elmi, and Angeli Moonsee, all of the FMGSS executives, and the tremendous volunteers and peer-reviewers who helped organize the event, as well as the Department of Family Medicine and the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences for their generous support. The day would not have been possible without those who contributed to making this event a huge success!

Here are some more photos from the event:
