Multiple Endocrine Neoplasias - Video mnemonic

See this video mnemonic to remember the various MEN (Multiple Endocrine Neoplasias)

Medical mnemonics / pnemonics / pneumonics / mneumonics

This is a little notice I want to put in this blog. I have seen people searching with all these wrong spellings for mnemonics. Google identifies and corrects most of these but it is better to have the correct spelling at your finger tips. There is no 'U' or 'P' in M-N-E-M-O-N-I-C-S. Just remember MEN on MONdays go to ICH (International Conference Hall / Indian Coffee House); Now rearrange MEN to MNE, add MON and ICS. So the correct spelling is MNE+MON+ICS. I just made up this silly rule to remember the spelling. You can thus split a large word to be remembered and split it as desired to rememeber them.

Anion gap mnemonics

These are famous picks to remember conditions showing variations in anion gap:

• Anion gap is increased in MUDPILES: methanol, uremia, diabetic ketoacidosis, propylene glycol, isoniazid, lactic acidosis, ethylene glycol, salicylates
• Anion gap is Normal in FUSEDCARS: fistula (pancreatic), uretogastric conduits, saline administration, endocrine (hyperparathyrdoism), diarrhea, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (acetazolamide), ammonium chloride, renal tubular acidosis, spironolactone
• Anion gap is DECREASED in conditions associated with HYPOalbuminemia (Causes of which are Hemorrage and NIL - Nephrotic syndrome, Intestinal obstruction, Liver cirrhosis)

Respiratory and Metabolic Alkalosis and Acidosis Mnemonics

Remember ROME = Respiratory Opposite, Metabollic Equal.
Explanation: Usually when pH decreases it is called acidosis and increase in pH is called alkalosis. There is no confusion to this point. Also I hope that you know that changes in PCO2 will lead to Respiratory acidosis / alkalosis and that in PHCO3 will lead to Metabolic acidosis / alkalosis. You can remember this by thinking that you respire PCO2 outside.
Next, take the mnemonic ROME - In Respiratory alkalosis / acidosis, the pH and PCO2 levels are Opposite; This means that in Respiratory acidosis (which means pH is low) the PCO2 will be high or in other words low pH with high PCO2 is called Respiratory acidosis. In respiratory alkalosis there is high pH and low PCO2. In Metabollic acidosis / alkalosis, the pH and PHCO3 levels are Equal (Not quantitively, but it means that increased pH and increased PHCO3 is the situation in Metabollic alkalosis and both are decreased in Metabolic acidosis).

To remeber this in another way: In METabollic acidosis / alkalosis the values of pH and PHCO3 MEET. In Respiratory there are like RX - 'X' denotes into mark for opposite.  Respiratory Raja's fight.
