Open quiz →Tests & diagnosis
A Curve Is Not a Diagnosis
“Straightening of the normal cervical lordosis” sounds like a verdict on your neck. It's a description of a curve on one image — the beginning of interpretation, not the end. Learn to read the rest of the report. Bet first.
Open quiz →Creatinine & Co.
A red flag on the lab report, a number that depends on your muscles, and a urine colour you should never explain away at home. Bet before you see the task.
Open quiz →Cell-based therapies
What's in the Vial?
“Stem-cell treatment” is not one treatment: source, processing, contents and route change the decision. Real promise deserves a high standard of judgment, not a lower one. “Young”, “natural” and “regenerative” are adjectives, not ingredients. Chips first.
Open quiz →Peptide therapy
One Word, Many Molecules
“Peptide” is a chemical family, not a treatment: it includes established medicines and promising research compounds, each with its own evidence. Neither hype nor dismissal — just the right question for the right molecule. Place your chips.
Open quiz →Spondyloarthritis (SpA)
The Back Story
We lost the tail long ago; the coccyx stayed and still anchors the pelvic floor. The rest of the back story — sacroiliac joints, heels, eyes and an inflamed family of diseases — is what this round of chips is about.
Open quiz →Rheumatoid arthritis
The Pattern, Not the Checklist

Ivo, a bookbinder in his sixties, has rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Open quiz →The frame, the springs or the fabric?
Dorota, an upholsterer in her fifties, never replaces a sagging armchair on sight: it may be the frame, the springs or the fabric, and you look before you replace.

Open quiz →The question that opens the door
Teodor, a museum guide in his sixties, has learned that the right question opens a room, while a vague one earns you a tour of the gift shop.

Open quiz →What is actually out of tune?
Sofia, a piano tuner in her fifties, earns her living by finding the one string that is off and leaving the others alone.
Open quiz →Crystal arthritis
Crystal Clear
Different crystals, look-alike attacks, and Benjamin Franklin arguing with his own foot. Gout is not a verdict on your dinner, and CPPD is not a reason to give up cheese. Chips first, crystals second.
