Abstract
The end of the year is always a perfect moment to look back. However, looking back over the past year alone is not enough if you want a complete picture of developments in medical science, which is why the Dutch Journal of Medicine (NTvG) has posted a timeline on its website charting medical milestones over the past 45 years. Some of these milestones are illustrated in the infographic in this number, and some interesting patterns can be observed. In this article we discuss various trends, from the increasing tendency to quantify to the rise of evidencebased medicine.
