Million to One Shot, Doc – All the things that get stuck. by Nathan Yau.
Nathan downloaded emergency room data from 2009 to 2014 and filtered the data to reveal:
…an estimated 17,968 emergency room visits for foreign bodies stuck in a rectum. About three-quarters of patients were male, and as you might expect, many of the foreign bodies were sex toys. But, perhaps unexpectedly, about 60 percent of those foreign bodies were not sex toys.
Nathan has created a click-through visualization of objects and ER doctor comments.
I offer this as a counter-example to the claim that all business data has value. 😉
You probably should forward the link to your home computer.
Enjoy!
PS: Is anyone working on a cross-cultural comparison on such data?
