[quote author=Lagusta]Ok, let me help u...

Starling's law states that the force of contraction of the heart is proportional to the initial length of the muscle fibre.... Therefore, anything that will increase the length, eg increased blood volume, will lead to an increased force of contraction, leading to increased cardiac output... If there is a high peripheral resistance, you know where that will lead to......


BTW, nobody has answered my clinical questions...[/quote
yes....it will lead to increased arterial blood pressure....thanks so much...did i get the erb palsy?

oluafolabi: Errm.. Senior colleagues .. Abeg stop oppressing us here oo.. Loool!!.. Happy new week to y'all...

[quote author=rill]Hello fello medics! I need serious advice from u guys. Earlier on, i posted sumtin abt d accreditation ish ma sch is having. The accreditation team came around few weeks ago to inspect the school facilities and we r very optimistic that very soon we wud b re accredited and finally write all pending MB exams. Now the thing is i am sick and tired of schooling here. Want a total change of environment, like travelling outta d country. Like seriously ma mind no dey here again, I hardly even read again cos d zeal is gone. I want a fresh start. Nw ma question is, wud u guys advice me to go ahead wt ma "travelling out" plans and start all over again, forgetting d fact that am in 300L, waiting for ma 1st MB. Am 22 yrs of age, male. Got admitted 2008 which means have spent 4 years here. Considering all dis, what do u guys think?[/quote

[quote author=Dr.Gboy]Can any1 pls help me out with parkinson's disease and atelectasis [/quote]parkinson disease from the little av learnt...it is an inborn error of metabolism owing to the dopamine produce by the substangial negra of the brain not equalising the acetylcholine at the muscle end plates....hence the individual have motor movement problem....*i heard una 1st lady get am*....atelactasis or patchy atelactasis...what i know is dat it is the collapse of the lungs owing to the alveoli type 2 cells unable to produce surfactant which prevents the alveoli from collapsing....beractant can be administered to help a little....i think dat is the little i know from medical biochemistry and resipatroy physiology...sorry i dont know much am stimm in pre-clinicals...EBSU CHS...

congrants to our final year students who passed their final MBBS exam....the results was released today and am so so happy for my friend that made it....EBSU CHS

Jeffbaba: Meehn am so so happy to be a medical student oo. I'm a very tall, handsome dude, with muscular body build too...i'm sure babes will go head over heels for me in med school. Even the nursing students and my fellow female medics. That name 'doctor' draws a lot of respect and admiration from everybody we encounter. @docs in the house what is ur social life like...are babes easier to get with the 'doc' status? Lets digress a little bit......at least there should be a fun side to the gruesome tasks we go through.

in my school there is word used frequently...'the dream of every nurse is so marry a Doctor'.....nursing students chase medics like mad...i have advances coming from medical lab,even my fellow female medic....but as lagusta said....be focused...if not when u FAIL MB...u are on ur own ooo....the name go die for ur side

jossy r: hi docs,i am a 100L Medical student in delsu,w'r about writing our 2nd semester exams.

Win 95: Am a 300L MBBS student about to write my pre qualification exams for my 1st MB. The thread is nice

...that is nice....am in 200l...starting my exams next week...so lets chat...aw is the program in ur school like?....which school are u?

@tufe what do u understand by index....my course rep today came with the class list and ask us to make corrections in case our names and registration no was spelt wrongly because the faculty said they are sending it to the NMDCN for indexing....any1 here pls throw more light

@aliandro....yes ur former view is wrong....lagusta got the right explanation...specialty is only done after passing ur primaries...that is when u av been licensed into the NMDCN...good morning alll....any 200L pls identify lets share info's

yes he got it...

Lagusta: Ok, let me break it down for u.....

Here in unilorin, we do anatomy, physiology and biochemistry, with a bit of epidemiology, behavioural sciences, microbiology and a WHO program called COBES in 200L and 300L, pharmacology is introduced in 300L, there we write our 1st professional MBBS...

In 400L we do pathology and pharmacology. Pathology is made of anatomic pathology, chemical pathology, microbiology and haematology.... Then we do our junior medical and surgical postings (M1 and S1), then we write our part 1 final MBBS

In 500L, we do two postings of paediatrics and obstetrics and gynaecology each, with another surgical posting (S2) and community health, with 4weeks of COBES, then we write our part 2 final MBBS

In 600L, we do our special postings in anaesthesiology, radiology, ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology... with M2, then our final M3, S3 and psycho postings, finally we chill off at COBES for 4 weeks and write our part 3 final MBBS exam... If u pass, u r a doctor, if not u resit the exam in 3 months, then repeat if u fail again

We withdraw at 200L if u fail twice, 300L if u fail thrice and 400L if u fail 4 times (I didn't say repeat 4 times ooooo)

Well..........

yes he got it...
