Medical software for Android mobile : Epocrates

This is a fantastic software which I personally used. Revise your pharmacology, check for drug interactions on the go. You need internet, preferably wifi connection for first downloading and updating the data and completing the free registration but later you have all stored in your android mobile. There are also lots of calculators including pregnancy wheel, drug dosing calculator, mean arterial pressure, Parkland's formula, Pediatric maintainace fluid calculator, unit conversions etc to name a few. Another useful utility for quick revision and memory are the "tables" - Includes steps in ACLS - The ABCDs, Bradycardia, Rapid sequence intubation, Tachycardia etc ; Antibiotic regimen tables; Drug classes table (comparison of corticosteroids, etc); Endocrinology - Insulin comparison; Pediatric vaccinations; Glassgow coma scale; Apgar score; Normal lab values in adults....... and the vast list goes on.
The software is available for all mobile platforms including iPod/iPhone, Blackberry, Palm, Windows mobile etc.

Multiple Endocrine Neoplasias - Video mnemonic

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

Diabetes mellitus

About Type I DM -  ( Notice that Roman one 'I' looks like English alphabet capital 'I' )
Insulin Dependant Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM)
Insulin antibodies present
Insulitis in Islet cells

It follows that Type II DM is Non Insulin dependant DM.

Also remember I is LESS than II, therefore:
IDDM incidence is LESS ( Only 10% of diagnosed diabetics )
IDDM is seen at an younger age < 30yrs ( age is LESS)
IDDM patients are thin ( LESS body weight )

Somatostatin actions

Insulin

Pancreatic enzyme

Hormones from Ovary and Testis

Ovary secretes Relaxin, Inhibin, Progesterone, Estrogen. ( Remember ovaries are RIPE with hormones ).

Testis secretes testosterone, inhibin, and mullerian-inhibiting hormones. ( Remember that testis make Mr. TIM strong ).

About Adrenal gland and Hormones

Layers of Adrenal cortex (From outermost to innermost) : Remember GFR - Glomerular, Fascicular, Reticular. Products of the adrenal cortex, from outer to inner layer: Remember Salt, sugar, sex; "the deeper you go, the sweeter it gets." (Salt = aldosterone, sugar = glucocorticoids, sex = sex hormones)

The adrenal Medulla secretes stress hormones Epinephrine and Norepinephrine in response to stress  in MEN ( Medulla - Epinephrine - Norepinephrine make the acronym MEN)

Adrenal Cortex secretes hormones which start with either of letters A or C - They are: Androgen, Aldosterone, Cortisol.
