What this page measures
We transcribe every episode of the medical shows listed below and score what gets said in them. Not what analysts predict, and not what a survey panel reports after the fact. What practitioners tell each other while the quarter is still running.
Podcast interviews are unusually good evidence for this. The guest is a working operator, the format is long enough that talking points run out, and nobody is answering a multiple-choice question. When sentiment in a sector turns, it tends to show up in how people talk months before it reaches a published number.
The scores below run 0 to 100 against a 50 neutral baseline, weighted by how much reach an episode has. Readings refresh nightly across a trailing 30-day window. A cut this narrow can go thin in a quiet month, and when it does we say so rather than publishing a number built on four episodes. Full methodology.
What the Medical conversation reads like
Sentiment across the five topics we score, measured only on medical shows. Trailing 30 days against the same window a quarter ago; thin cuts fall back to a 90-day read.
