Editors: Callus, Leonard; Mifsud, Melise Abstract: Sphygmo is the magazine to read for fun, between studying studying from your lecturer’s slides and going through a 1000+ page medical book. This year our aim was to fill it with some interesting facts that are medically related. We want to spook you with scary hospitals, make you laugh with some remedies and touch your hearts with some voluntary work. A lot of hard work is involved in this magazine, and so we appreciate your feedback a lot. As blood pressures may start to rise with the stress of exams, don’t worry, just grab a Sphygmo. No, of course not to see how hypertensive you are.... just to relax, and read something you like! While keeping our goal that of keeping this magazine light and fun to read, we also wanted to share some awesome facts and target different aspects of life. We wish to take the opportunity to thank you for reading this edition of Sphygmo and we invite you to read previous releases of Sphygmo plus other publications released by MMSA by visiting our ISSUU page. Enjoy! Editors – Leonard Callus and Melise Mifsud.
