Book excerpt: Gout is a painful and chronic form of arthritis that affects millions of people worldwide. It is caused by the build-up of uric acid crystals in the joints, leading to inflammation and intense pain. While gout has been recognised for centuries, there is still much to be learned about the disease, including its causes, triggers, and treatment options. In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the history of gout, its science and diagnosis, the different types of gout, and how to prevent and manage gout flares. We will explore the most common medications used to treat gout, including allopurinol and colchicine, as well as natural remedies that may provide relief. We will also examine the relationship between gout and other health conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes. Whether you are living with gout or supporting someone who is, this book aims to provide a thorough understanding of the disease and its management. By exploring the latest research and sharing coping strategies, we hope to empower readers to take control of their health and live well with gout. I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable. Translator: Owen Jones PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides teaching scripts for medical educators in internal medicine and coaches them in creating their own teaching scripts. Every year, thousands of attending internists are asked to train the next generation of physicians to master a growing body of knowledge. Formal teaching time has become increasingly limited due to rising clinical workload, medical documentation requirements, duty hour restrictions, and other time pressures. In addition, today’s physicians-in-training expect teaching sessions that deliver focused, evidence-based content that is integrated into clinical workflow. In keeping with both time pressures and trainee expectations, academic internists must be prepared to effectively and efficiently teach important diagnostic and management concepts. A teaching script is a methodical and structured plan that aids in effective teaching. The teaching scripts in this book anticipate learners’ misconceptions, highlight a limited number of teaching points, provide evidence to support the teaching points, use strategies to engage the learners, and provide a cognitive scaffold for teaching the topic that the teacher can refine over time. All divisions of internal medicine (e.g. cardiology, rheumatology, and gastroenterology) are covered and a section on undifferentiated symptom-based presentations (e.g. fatigue, fever, and unintentional weight loss) is included. This book provides well-constructed teaching scripts for commonly encountered clinical scenarios, is authored by experienced academic internists and allows the reader to either implement them directly or modify them for their own use. Each teaching script is designed to be taught in 10-15 minutes, but can be easily adjusted by the reader for longer or shorter talks. Teaching Scripts in Internal Medicine is an ideal tool for internal medicine attending physicians and trainees, as well as physician’s assistants, nurse practitioners, and all others who teach and learn internal medicine.
