yeah they are related but there is still a sharp difference between the two. In some foreign unis it is usually fused as one discipline ie Msc clinical and med bioch just like clinical and medical engr. Then medical bch is deeply a research course though scientists in this field would go on to work as lab tech, med scientists, med academics or simply diagn specialists conducting and testing bodily fluids and related specimen. They cond. simple and basic biomed tests. Note that they may not necessarily work in clinics. But clinical bch is aspect of laboratory medicine and almost considered as another branch or name of chemical pathology .note pathologists are dctrs with knowlege of diseases affecting lives, its prev,cure and mgt. Prospects in clin.bch is good. You can go for it if u can find approp sch where the Msc is done or you can also take the both in your combined Msc program. But to be frank foreign insts are place where it is easily obtainable plus other opport of working in adv labs. But make your enquiries abt naija unis with the prog accred.

congratulations start by getting your stuffs together for registration yes! Registration for now and errm.. Just prepare your mind. Most stufs you'd be doing is what you just studied for jamb and a little more advanced sciences(basic 20-35%). Year one is just a revision. But use it to develope good reading habits if your school get mat nos manually try as much as possible to start registration as early as you can before the whole place will be filled up with fresher's -which usually slows down the process. Welcome once again and PLEASE STAY FOCUSED

So I guess my answer sufficed
Yes Sir, U Av Started Endo Physio?
Weekend Mind Boggling ? To The Group?
1. Give the Anatomical basis and pathological complication, on why your friend shoud not press the pimples on his upper lip?
2. why is there: a. breast development b. female external genitals c. NO male internal genitals in Testicular feminization syndrome.
3. A man was shot on the midshaft of his humerus, what anatomical structures must have been affected?

Introduction
My friend should not do so because the upper lip is included among the danger area of the face. A pimple pop there might cause an infection to spread via the facial vein to the brain.
Anatomical Basis
The danger area of the face is a triangular area in the centre of the face which is bounded externally by a line running from the angle of the mouth to the root of the nose. It is so called because in this area, the facial vein via the superior opthalmic veins, inferior ophthalmic veins and the pterygoid venous plexus communicates with the cavernous sinus and an infection in this area can get into the facial vein and then into the cavernous sinus.
Pathological Basis
An infection in the facial vein around the danger area of the face spreads to the cavernous sinus via venous communications.This causes inflammation of the cavernous sinus, a condition called cavernous sinus thrombophlebitis. This can lead to increased pressure in the cavernous sinus thus compressing brain structures and leading to brain damage.
2.a. Excess testosterone is converted to oestrogen which stimulates breast development.
b. Absence of 5-alpha reductase. Thus no DHT to inhibit development of female external genitals.
c. Androgens are insensitive thus wolfian duct cannot be differentiated.
3. Radial nerve
Brachial artery
Probably musculocutaneous nerve also

Nice one chief.
As regards Testicular feminizing syndrome,I think its due to insensitivity of androgen receptors and not absence of 5á reductase enzyme deficiency which is called pénis-at-12-syndrome or congenital 5á reductase deficiency.Hence there is DHT but deficient DHT 1 and DHT 2 receptors.
3) I think its descending branch of profunda brachii(deep brachial) to be precise

Thanks boss. Yh I know there is insensitivity of androgen receptors in TFS but I taught there was linked 5-alpha reductase deficiency too. I've neither heard of or seen pénis-at-12 syndrome before. Lol. We learn everyday.

On this number 3, I think,considering the fact that mid-shaft of the humerus was mentioned, the person must be expecting you to mention the MEDIAN NERVE which crosses the brachial artery mid-shaft from lateral to medial. After this,one can now mention the brachial artery and others.

The median nerve may not be involved in a MIDSHAFT fracture as it does not lie intimately with the midshaft of bone rather it runs in the medial intermuscular septum before crossing the medial SUPRACONDYLE of the humerus.Hence a SUPRACONDYLAR fracture is most likely to affect the MEDIAN NERVE.
This was one of our Anatomy stipple chase question. A bone was marked at the midshaft and the most likely nerve to be damaged was asked.

That is a fracture boss. This is a gunshot wound. The bullet will pierce any structure it comes in contact with.
