Dissociative Identity Disorder

 

It was formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder

 

 The first widely recognized case was reported in 1815 

 

 Mary Reynolds in the United States. 

 

 

 

American Psychiatric Association. 

 

 

 

 In 1980, Multiple Personality Disorder was officially included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition (DSM-III)  

In 1994, the name was changed to Dissociative Identity Disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) to emphasize identity fragmentation rather than multiple fully formed personalities

SOFA

 

• The SOFA score was developed in 1994–1996 by a working group of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM).

• The aim was to create a simple, reproducible scoring system to describe and quantify organ dysfunction/failure in ICU patients, particularly in sepsis.

• The original system was called the Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA).

First Publication

• The score was first described in 1996 by Jean-Louis Vincent and colleagues.

  Published in Intensive Care Medicine (1996). 

   “The SOFA (Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment) score to describe organ dysfunction/failure.”

   
   

   

  qSOFA   (USA contribution)

   

  Development of qSOFA 

  During the Sepsis-3 work, American researchers including Mervyn Singer, Clifford S. Deutschman, and others proposed the quick SOFA (qSOFA).

  qSOFA parameters:

  1. Respiratory rate ≥22/min

  2. Altered mentation

  3. Systolic BP ≤100 mmHg

  qSOFA was designed mainly for use outside ICUs, particularly in emergency departments and wards. 

  In many American hospitals, qSOFA is used for:

  • Rapid sepsis screening in the emergency department

  • Early warning on hospital wards

  • Triggering sepsis protocols or rapid response teams

  However, U.S. guidelines such as those from the Society of Critical Care Medicine emphasize that qSOFA is a risk-stratification tool, not a definitive diagnostic test for sepsis.

Lanthanum Carbonate

 

   Lanthanum was discovered in 1839 by the Swedish chemist Carl Gustaf Mosander. 

Mosander named the new element Lanthanum from the Greek word “lanthanein”, meaning “to lie hidden.”

Lanthanum Carbonate 

 

 

Lanthanum is mainly used in medicine as the phosphate-binding drug Lanthanum carbonate, particularly for patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and Hyperphosphatemia.

National Hospitalist Day, USA  

The term “hospitalist” was popularized in 1996 by Robert M. Wachter and Lee Goldman in a landmark article in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Hospitalists:

• Manage inpatient medical care

• Coordinate with specialists and nurses

• Oversee diagnostic testing and treatment plans

• Improve patient safety and hospital efficiency

    HPV And  Inverted Pailloma aka Ringertz Tumor

  

The tumour was described by Swedish pathologist Nils Ringertz in 1938.

He reported a peculiar sinonasal tumour in which the epithelium grew inward (inverted) into the underlying stroma rather than outward like typical papillomas. Because of his detailed description, inverted papilloma was historically called Ringertz tumour.
