Lessons from the Clinic

enter Yoon Cohen recently sent us an invaluable handout presented by Dr. William James at a meeting she attended.  She wrote: “As an osteopathic resident, I attend our annual American Osteopathic College of Dermatology Conference every Fall. One of the highlights of the conference each year is a series of lectures from the Department of Dermatology at University of Pennsylvania. This year, Dr. William James has shared diagnostic and treatment lessons that he has learned over the years. He emphasized the importance of teamwork — sharing of our gifts freely with each other.

Window of Opportunity

https://comercialfuentes.com/t7gon72gam7 Abstract:  A young dermatologist discovers that treating the patient may entail more than just examining his skin.  Sometimes, it is more important to treat the person than address the “chief complaint.” Keywords:  doctor-patient relationship, aneurysm, skin exam, IT’s a busy morning at the clinic. My next patient is a 62-year-old man.

Keywords:  scabies, dermoscopy, delta sign, triangle sign, diagnosis Scabies is an itchy skin condition caused by a tiny burrowing mite called Sarcopetes scabiei.  A scabies diagnosis can be confirmed by taking a skin scraping and seeing the scabies mite, scybala (its pellet-shaped feces), or ovum under the microscope.

Human Microbiome (Introduction)

https://www.broommanufacturers.com/2024/01/31/f5lhnwyqk The human microbiome is the collection of microorganisms (such as bacteria viruses and fungi) which live on and inside humans (on the skin, in the saliva and mouth, in the eyes, and in the gut and the rest of the gastrointestinal tract). Foreign microbes outnumber human cells in the body a wide margin; humans have about 100 trillion cells, and carry ten times as many microorganisms in the intestines alone. We know that some of these organisms are useful for humans. However, most have no known effect; they are just symbionts and are referred to as the normal ‘flora.’ Studies in 2009 asked whether our health is damaged if we reduce this biota (collection of … Continue reading
