Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates the impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty. The higher the probability of an event, the more likely it is that the event will occur.

The first specialized children’s hospitals, such as the London Foundling Hospital, established in 1745, were opened at this time. These hospitals later became major centers for training in pediatrics, which began to be taught as a separate discipline in medical schools by the middle of the 19th century.

In Greek mythology, the Rod of Asclepius⚕ is a serpent-entwined rod wielded by the Greek god Asclepius, a deity associated with healing and medicine. In modern times, it is the predominant symbol for medicine and health care, although it is sometimes confused with the similar caduceus, which has two snakes. The Rod of Asclepius is the dominant symbol for professional healthcare associations in the United States. However, It is relatively common to find the caduceus, with its two snakes and wings, used as a symbol of medicine instead of the Rod of Asclepius. This usage was popularised largely as a result of the adoption of the caduceus as its insignia by the U.S. Army Medical Corps in 1902.
