I am writing to solicit your advice on contributing an article to your journal. My experience with aprosexia is second to none, having cured more than 150 patients of this annoying disorder. For the less informed, aprosexia is defined as “inattention, due to ocular, aural, or nasal defects or to mental weakness.” 1Aprosexia is highly prevalent in patients with ear (aural) and nose (nasal) problems, and is also observed regularly in the physicians that treat them. A quick glance at the audience of any grand rounds or annual society meeting will reveal aprosexics in full bloom: heads bobbing, eyelids drifting closed only to burst open with lightning vigor, feigning attempts at concentration while shielding their eyes from the speaker with an outstretched palm. My question is this: what is the best way for me to report this series of cases in a way that might benefit your readership? I have been enormously successful in boosting the confidence and quality of life of sufferers and have no doubt your readers could replicate my results. Nonetheless, your prior editorials have chided authors who draw unjustified conclusions from personal experience, so I would like to avoid this fate with a proactive query. Thank you in advance for considering this dilemma and for your forthcoming insights, which will potentially benefit aprosexics worldwide.
