Phenotypic differences between male physicians, surgeons, and film stars: comparative study
Objectives To test the hypothesis that, on average, male surgeons are taller and better looking than male physicians, and to compare both sets of doctors with film stars who play doctors on screen.
Design Comparative study.
Setting Typical university hospital in Spain, located in Barcelona and not in a sleepy backwater.
Participants Random sample of 12 surgeons and 12 physicians plus 4 external controls (film stars who play doctors), matched by age (50s) and sex (all male).
Interventions An independent committee (all female) evaluated the "good looking score" (range 1-7).
Main outcome measures Height (cm) and points on the good looking score.
Results Surgeons were significantly taller than physicians (mean height 179.4 v 172.6 cm; P=0.01). Controls had significantly higher good looking scores than surgeons (mean score 5.96 v 4.39; difference between means 1.57, 95% confidence interval 0.69 to 2.45; P=0.013) and physicians (5.96 v 3.65; 2.31, 1.58 to 3.04; P=0.003). Surgeons had significantly higher good looking scores than physicians (4.39 v 3.65; 0.74; 0.25 to 1.23; P=0.010).
Conclusions Male surgeons are taller and better looking than physicians, but film stars who play doctors on screen are better looking than both these groups of doctors. Whether these phenotypic differences are genetic or environmental is unclear.

Objectives To test the hypothesis that, on average, male surgeons are taller and better looking than male physicians, and to compare both sets of doctors with film stars who play doctors on screen.
平均来说，男外科医生比男内科医生更高而且更帅，为了验证这个假设，我们把这两类医生和电影中扮演医生的明星进行了比较。
Design Comparative study.
设计比较研究
Setting Typical university hospital in Spain, located in Barcelona and not in a sleepy backwater.
选定一个位于西班牙Barcelona的地理位置不闭塞的典型的大学附属医院。
Participants Random sample of 12 surgeons and 12 physicians plus 4 external controls (film stars who play doctors), matched by age (50s) and sex (all male).
参与者：12名外科医生、12名内科医生和4个对照者（电影中扮演医生的演员）组成随机样本，以年龄（50s）和性别（均为男性）配对。
Interventions An independent committee (all female) evaluated the "good looking score" (range 1-7).
干预：一个全由女性组成的独立的委员会估量“相貌得分”（范围从1到7）。
Main outcome measures Height (cm) and points on the good looking score.
主要指标是测得的身高和相貌得分。
Results Surgeons were significantly taller than physicians (mean height 179.4 v 172.6 cm; P=0.01). Controls had significantly higher good looking scores than surgeons (mean score 5.96 v 4.39; difference between means 1.57, 95% confidence interval 0.69 to 2.45; P=0.013) and physicians (5.96 v 3.65; 2.31, 1.58 to 3.04; P=0.003). Surgeons had significantly higher good looking scores than physicians (4.39 v 3.65; 0.74; 0.25 to 1.23; P=0.010).
结果：外科医生显著高于内科医生（平均身高179.4 v 172.6 cm，P=0.01），对照组相貌得分显著高于外科医生（平均得分5.96 v 4.39;平均相差1.57，95%可信区间为0.69到2.45;P=0.013）和内科医生（平均得分5.96 v 3.65;平均相差2.31，95%可信区间为1.58到3.04;P=0.003）。外科医生相貌得分显著高于内科医生 （平均得分4.39 v 3.65;平均相差0.74，95%可信区间为0.25到1.23;P=0.013）
Conclusions Male surgeons are taller and better looking than physicians, but film stars who play doctors on screen are better looking than both these groups of doctors. Whether these phenotypic differences are genetic or environmental is unclear.
结论：男外科医生比男内科医生高而且帅，但是屏幕上扮演医生的明星们比这两组医生更帅。这种外表的差异由遗传还是环境决定还是未知的。
不知道matched by age (50s)中50s是什么意思啊？
统计的知识太多了，不知道他是不是用的t检验啊
还有，样本量是不是太小了点啊，虽然用了统计的方法，但多大程度是可信的呢？ 那我以后当外科医生算了 哈哈哈 没错啊.高是外科的高大.但是作为内科医生,也有很多是帅哥的啊. 有必然联系吗？ 奉劝嘉弟不要搞外科了！不然会破坏人家的实验结果的！
