“When you know the patient’s history, and also know enough physiopathology, you rarely ever get surprised by radiological findings.”

[wurds-fur-nurds]

Physiopathorreryemptiabilism (noun) \| /ˌfɪziˌoʊpæθˌɔːriˌɛmpˈtiːəbɪlɪzəm/ \

A theoretical concept in the intersection of physiopathology and mechanical astronomy, describing the phenomenon where a biological system (particularly a pathological one) can be conceptualized as an orrery—a mechanical model of the solar system—where each organ or component follows a predictable yet potentially dysregulated orbit or pattern, reflecting the overall state of health.

The principle by which such a system, when mapped or modeled, can be "emptied" or reset to a neutral state, similar to the calibration of an orrery, with the goal of returning the pathological system to a baseline of homeostasis or normalcy.

Example: "The research into physiopathorreryemptiabilism aims to better understand how diseases can be modeled mechanically, allowing for novel treatments that reset pathological processes to their healthy states."

An interesting preprint looking at a new imaging technique that can detect covid in the body non-invasively.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has caused nearly 780 million cases globally. While available treatments and vaccines have allowed a reduction of the mortality rate, the spread of the virus is still evolving quickly, resulting in the emergence of new variants. Despite extensive research, the long-term impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection is still poorly understood and requires further investigation.

Routine analysis provides limited access to the tissues of patients, necessitating alternative approaches to investigate viral dissemination in the organism. We addressed this issue by implementing a whole-body in vivo imaging strategy to longitudinally assess the biodistribution of SARS-CoV-2. We demonstrate in a COVID-19 non-human primate model that a single injection of non-neutralizing radiolabeled [89Zr]COVA1-27-DFO human monoclonal antibody targeting a preserved epitope of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein allows longitudinal tracking of the virus by positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT). Convalescent animals exhibited a persistent [89Zr]COVA1-27-DFO PET signal in the lungs, as well as in the brain, three months following infection. This imaging approach also allowed detection of the virus in various organs, including the airways and kidneys, of exposed animals during the acute phase of infection. Overall, the technology we developed offers a comprehensive assessment of SARS-CoV-2 distribution in vivo and provides a new approach for the non- invasive study of long-COVID physiopathology.

I cannot look at frogs anymore without picturing them dead and/or decerebrated what has the physiopathology lab done to me

[ghostlycollectorchaos]

Studying for my exam and yk what better to just let ppl die at this point

How to fuck you expect me to understand the physiopathology of burn victims? The struggle to keep them alive when the entire damn body after the incident is actively working AGAINST YOU. MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST LET THEM GO THEY ARENT EVEN TRYING TO SURVIVE OKAY

(to all intents and purposes it is a joke I'm just panicking while studying for my finals and regretting letting care for burn victims as the last subject to make notes)

[brunetteaura]

i have to memorize 132 pages of physiopathology in one week…. i dont even know what to say at this point

Why Is Magnesium Supplementation Essential For Women? - Magnesium Store

Effect Of Magnesium On Women’s Health And Well-Being

In women, in particular, there are various physiopathological conditions that may increase magnesium requirements, useful for both disease prevention and treatment. Indeed magnesium is well recognized in obstetrics and gynecology area. Magnesium use in women, both in terms of prevention and treatment, is extended to many health issues from PCOS to pre-menstrual syndrome, from pregnancy to menopause, and beyond. – Debora Porri

Women’s nutritional needs change in response to physiological modifications throughout their lifespan, lower magnesium levels may be common throughout women’s lives and are associated with adverse health outcomes and reduced quality of life.

Magnesium plays a couple of extra roles in a woman’s body although this is important for both men and women. The fourth most plentiful mineral in the body is magnesium. It plays a number of important roles in your body and brain health.

A quick guide on what different titles mean in my posts

(Since education AND healthcare systems vary around the world).

Medical Student (4.5-5 years)

You can get into medical school straight out of high school. College degrees do exist, but they are not the norm, not for medicine, and not for any career, tbh.

You fist 2-3 years are mostly theory. Calculus, chemistry, biology, anatomy, histology, embriology, physiology, pathology, physiopathology, microbiology, pharmacology…. That period end with semiology, and you get a Bachelor’s Degree in Medical Science.

Then, for the next 2 years, you have your clinicals, in which you spend half of the day in the hospital, with patients, and half the day in class, but definitely more focused on patient care and management.

Med student in clinicals = baby of the team (most of the time).

When you finish, you get your Academic Degree, Licenciate in Medicine.

Medical Intern (1.5-2 years)

No longer a student, you are now in your professional practice. Although you are technically still in med school in your university, you can say goodbye to classes, since you’re now a worker.

Probably bottom of the food chain, and probably does all the paperwork that nobody wants to do, but it’s a period where you gain a lot of independence and knowledge through work.

When you finish, you get your Professional Title, Médico Cirujano, but also need to pass a national test (EUNACOM) in order to be able to work.

Once you are a Doctor, you can work with that, or you can specialize.

Resident Doctor

A doctor, who is both working and studying towards a specialty.

Staff

Doctor who is on charge of a team. Tends to be an specialist.

Other titles that may cause confusion:

CNA: I use CNA to refer to TENS (Técnico de Enfermería de Nivel Superior). Technical degree (2.5 years). Takes care of patient’s basic needs, vital signs, may administer non-prescription medications.

Scrub tech: An specialized TENS. Takes care of the surgical instrumental and the sterile field in the OR.

Other TENS specializations: (that aren’t shared with other workers) Ambulance paramedic, anesthesia tech, trauma tech (takes care of plasters).

Medical Technologist: University degree (5Y). In charge of handling the machines and advanced technology equipment. They have 5 sub-specialties: ENT, ophthalmology, morphophysiopathology, blood bank and radiology.

Kinesiologist: University degree (5Y). They encapsulate both Physical Therapy and Respiratory Therapy.

Midwife: University Degree (5Y). Kind of like L&D nurses. Also in charge of reproductive health (i.e inserts IUDs, tests for STIs). Can assist births without a doctor if uncomplicated.

Other professionals that may not need further explanation:

Nurse.

Nutritionist.

Speech therapy.

Occupational therapy.

Proteomics-based characterization of ribosome heterogeneity in adult mouse organs

While long thought to be invariable in all cellular organisms, evidence has emerged that the translation process, i.e. protein assembly from mRNA sequence decoding, is regulated by variable features of the translation machinery. Notably, ribosomes, the functional units of protein synthesis, display variations in their composition, depending on the developmental stage, cell type or physiopathological context, thus providing a new level of actionable regulation of gene expression. Yet, a comprehensive map of the heterogeneity of ribosome composition in ribosomal proteins (RPs) in different organs and tissues is not available. In this work, we explored tissue-specific ribosome heterogeneity using mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomic characterization of ribosomal fractions purified from 14 adult mouse organs and tissues. We performed crossed clustering and statistical analyses of RP composition to highlight stable, variable and tissue-specific RPs across organs and tissues. Focusing on specific RPs, we validated their relative abundance with a targeted proteomic approach, which gave further insight into the tissue-specific ribosome RP signature. Finally, we investigated the origin of RP variations in ribosome fraction of the different tissues, by comparing RP relative abundances in our proteomic dataset and in three independent transcriptomic datasets. Interestingly, we found that, in some tissues, the RP abundance in purified ribosomes does not always correlate with the corresponding RP transcript level, arguing for a translational regulation of RP expression, and/or a regulated incorporation of RPs into ribosomes. Altogether, our data support the notion of a tissue-specific RP signature of ribosomes, which opens avenues to study how specific ribosomal composition provides an additional level of regulation to control gene expression in different tissues and organs. http://dlvr.it/T3D4yj

So, my perceptions have shifted. When I got into medschool, I envisioned being a surgeon. Now, having lived a bit more of medicine, I realize I was too quick to judge internal medicine.

Recently I have absolutely fallen in love with university. I feel that I finally got to the point in my life that 18 year old me dreamed off: studying real medicine, the physiopathology of it, the symptons, conducts. And I realized how majestic the investigational work is, how you glue physical exam, patient history and the science together so you can improve someone's life, perhaps even save it.

I have not gotten to surgery rotations yet, but moving forward, internal medicine is definitely something that I can say surprised me.

I also finished cardiology for this semester, and I have never worked or studied so much and so hard in my life for the sake of knowledge, and felt - tired, yes - happy during every second of it. Internal medicine could provide me the opportunity of being a cardiologist, perhaps even interventional cardiology (dream big or go home), and my heart (no pun intended) has an extrasystole every time I think of that. Who knows?

Overall, my priority changed. It is medicine now. I've been clearing out spaces in my life so I can fit in more study time. It's gone from being a athlete-student who exercised because they felt so lost and disoriented to being born and bred student-athlete who will do anything to be the best doctor they can be.

That extends to social life, in the beginning, I wanted to live all the typical early 20s experiences of having a lot of lovers, drinking, partying, having tons of friends. And I tried, maybe even got that a little, only to realize that the reason I didn't do it in high school was because I hated it! I much prefer to stick to my space, have my self care, organize my house and life and do my assignments promptly.

And then, of course, there is the fact that literally everyone I had in my life turned out to be a disappointment. This was a whole ordeal where I lost my friends one by one, and it left me feeling very hurt.

This is the last time I'll talk about this, because from now on it doesn't matter anymore, I am tired of living these experiences.

2024 will be a year of hard work. A year of self-isolation and personal and physical growth. This is sowing season.
