Abstract:
Social sciences are only rarely integrated into graduate medical curricula, though there have been several calls for increasing social sciences in medical education. The usual approaches to teaching the social sciences in graduate medical education in the current literature include basing curricula on the Behavioral and Social Sciences model or the Social Determinants of Health model. One further approach attempts to teach competencies that suggest intersections between the social sciences and competency frameworks. A foundation of social science knowledge, analogous to the foundational basic science and clinical science knowledge learned by trainees to support medical expertise, could support the broader competencies required for trainees to become competent physicians. This chapter describes a model of foundational social science knowledge, developed from research findings. The chapter provides curricular ideas, practical tips, discussion questions, and helpful links for program directors looking to incorporate social science teaching in their programs.

Abstract:
A Guide for Addressing Stress among Medical Students was penned by the late Associate Professor Dr Narasappa Kumaraswamy, a senior clinical psychologist and academician. He had systematically addressed the stress experienced by medical students and methods to cope them. As editors, we had the great opportunity to edit this book with our experience and present it to the world where the rich experience and research outcome of our observations help the students to understand the stress and cope it successfully during their study period. A team of editors including psychologists, psychiatrist, and physiologist, counselling experts and medical educators for decades have edited the book with their knowledge and experience as medical students earlier in their life. The medical curriculum been very vast and new technologies, information overload and in-depth subject knowledge and skills have to be learned to prepare the medical students to be life savers and helping in task of curing the health of ailing persons. Demand on holistic and integrated learning further enhanced the task of amalgamating the basic sciences and clinical knowledge that have to be mastered at a deeper level. Each year of medical course and long-hour burning out keep a student under pressure. Academic and non-academic issues and the level of stress are day-to-day affair and stress perception varies from individual to individual; some may be able to cope with their stress easily whereas a good number find difficulty in coping and may end up with psychological to psychiatric problems that need to be addressed timely. This book systematically unveils the readers to understand and take steps in dealing with stress and come over it with positive approach. This book shall help medical students and also other faculty students to understand the basis, problems with stress, coping and leading a healthy student life. Since medical studies are spread over a five long years followed by hospital housemanship, stress of life need to be balanced and systematically coping techniques shall help a student to get over the stress experience and help in leading a healthy positive student life with a good success. This book shall definitely be a guide which every student needs to read and learn everything about student stress and coping strategy. Wish all our readers the very best and happy peaceful student life rid of stress.

Full text
Abstract:
Given the comparatively slow pace of human evolution, the body, as a biological entity, may be taken more or less as a historical constant during the past 1500 years. But every interaction with that body was mediated by culture, and thus gender analysis is a driving force in the expanding field of the history of health. This essay looks at how changing expectations of gender and knowledge shaped medical and surgical interventions in three circumstances: pregnancy; childbirth emergencies; and the care of intersexed persons. The field of the history of health is still rapidly expanding, and the perspectives of gender analysis are a major part of what is driving that expansion forward.

Abstract:
This resource examines recent developments in the field of network neuroscience and their potential impact on clinical psychiatry, including the way that psychiatrists are trained and interact with other medical specialties and mental health professionals. It discusses how research in neuroscience is revolutionizing how we think about psychiatric diagnosis and treatment, and how understanding how the neural networks that underlie these mental functions become dysfunctional holds great promise for devising innovative approaches to diagnosis and treatment. It covers recent advances in human functional neuroimaging, which is being used to characterize the activity of specific brain circuits at rest and during the performance of specific tasks, as well as advances in clinical neuroscience that are being coupled with expanding knowledge about genetics and cellular and synaptic neuroscience. Taken together, these advancements offer the hope of much more mechanism-based approaches to treatment in the future.

Abstract:
This article explores what both historians of medicine and historians of science could gain from a stronger entanglement of their respective research agendas. It first gives a cursory outline of the history of the relationship between science and medicine since the scientific revolution in the seventeenth century. Medicine can very well be seen as a domain that was highly productive of scientific knowledge, yet in ways that do not fit very well with the historiographic framework that dominated the history of science. Furthermore, the article discusses two alternative historiographical approaches that offer ways of thinking about the growth of knowledge that fit well with the cumulative and translational patterns that characterize the development of the medical sciences, and also provide an understanding of concepts such as ‘health’ and ‘life’.

Full text
Abstract:
Patient safety suddenly burst into public consciousness in the late 1990s and became a “celebrated” cause in the 2000s. It has since gradually faltered, and little improvement has been noted over almost 20 years. Both the rise and fall of patient safety demand explanation. Medical harm had been known long before the 1990s, so why did it suddenly become popular? And why were safety efforts ineffective? The authors propose that this rise was due to a discursive shift that reframed “medical harm” into “medical error” in the setting of anxiety about industrialization and great change in healthcare. The “error” framing, with its inherent notion of agency, was useful in advancing the agenda of a technocratic, managerial group of health professionals and diminishing the authority of the old guard based on clinical expertise. The fall was due to this “medicalization” of safety. Health professionals and managers with little knowledge of safety science came to dominate the patient safety field, crowding out expertise from the safety sciences (e.g., psychology, engineering) and thus keeping reform under the control of the healthcare establishment. Operating with a sort of delusional clarity, this scientific-bureaucratic cabal generated a great deal of activity but made little progress because they failed to engage with expertise in the safety sciences. Twenty years after sudden popularity, there is general agreement that little of value has been achieved. The future of patient safety is in doubt, and radical reform in approaches to safety will be required for progress to be made.

Abstract:
The Oxford Textbook of Medicine is published online and has been regularly updated for many years, but the production of a new and very substantially updated edition provides a moment when it is natural and proper to reflect on what has changed in Medicine—and what has not—in recent years. The sixth edition of the textbook considers exactly what modern medicine has to offer patients and their doctors. Advances in biomedical sciences, the broader context of health and disease, patients and their expectations, and access to medical knowledge are some of the key areas examined in detail among the 30 sections of the book. Sections include introductory sections on patients and their treatment, background to medicine, cell biology, and immunological mechanisms, as well as more subject-specific sections such as infectious diseases, neurological disorders, cardiovascular disorders, rheumatology, and the kidney, as well as many more.

Full text
Abstract:
The subject of this book is how the brain works. In order to understand this, it is essential to know what is computed by different brain systems; and how the computations are performed. The aim of this book is to elucidate what is computed in different brain systems; and to describe current computational approaches and models of how each of these brain systems computes. Understanding the brain in this way has enormous potential for understanding ourselves better in health and in disease. Potential applications of this understanding are to the treatment of the brain in disease; and to artificial intelligence which will benefit from knowledge of how the brain performs many of its extraordinarily impressive functions. This book is pioneering in taking this approach to brain function: to consider what is computed by many of our brain systems; and how it is computed. The book will be of interest to all scientists interested in brain function and how the brain works, whether they are from neuroscience, or from medical sciences including neurology and psychiatry, or from the area of computational science including machine learning and artificial intelligence, or from areas such as theoretical physics.

Full text
Abstract:
Clinical Pharmacology for Prescribing explains how drugs work and why they should be prescribed for common medical conditions. Linking disease processes to pharmacological interventions, this guide gives a sound basis for evidence based prescribing. Written for medical students, trainee doctors and non-medical prescribers, it addresses all aspects of practical pharmacology, explaining drug classes, their mechanisms and effects on the body. Ultimately its focus is on clinical use, so that safe prescribing decisions are based on sound understanding of science - why and how drugs work to treat common conditions. Every chapter provides clear linkages between pathophysiology of disease and drug mechanisms, highlighted in original illustrations that bring together drug mechanisms, pathways and their place in medical management. Unwanted effects, drug interactions and prescribing warnings are emphasised to help the reader become aware of critical issues in prescribing. This resource also addresses how to prescribe for vulnerable patient groups and provokes deep understanding for patient safety. Written by a Practicing Pharmaceutical Physician with a D.Phil in Pharmacology, an Assistant Professor with the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences and a Senior hospital-based Clinical Pharmacist. The textbook has been extensively reviewed by practicing clinicians such that this new resource exemplifies the skills and knowledge needed for practical, legal and safe clinical prescribing.
