How long should it take to finish FA and Medessentials once u`ve gone thru kaplan and goljan patho for 1 or 2 times?
FA 06 and Medessentials, both are in organ system format. Should I rather go with FA 05 and medessentials ?
If you need M/E, u can get it from here
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

Ur exam being in Feb, jump into KME soon...READ IN BETWEEN THE LINES its got everything needed.
I guess shud be able to munch it in 10 days max
Do annotate important tables & pages in it & move on.
FA shud be read once prior to final cramming to get the groove of it......
People have drilled thru FA thrice in last 3 days....make sure to add Ur stuff to FA.
If using FA2006 make sure u correct the errors in it.Download the attached file.
Last days do only FA with selected pages of KME......
Hope this helps !!! GudLuck...

Dr. placebo, interesting edits, will look them over tomorrow. Thought the first should be stages of bereavement. Did you make the corrections yourself? If so that was pretty cool keeping a record to help other people out. Thanks !!

U r welcome Ancy!! I found it from another forum... credit goes to them.
Actual "Grief stages are shock,denial guilt & somatic symptoms-lasts 6m to 1yr." which is pretty diff. from Kubler Ross Dying stages[pg124-125 of FA2004] also refer to pg 23 of BRS-Behav
All are valid corrections....
I checkd them from sources..

Another correction that isnt a correction
275--"Usually squamous cell carcinoma" Actually, squamous cell CA and adenocarcinoma of the esophagus currently have almost equal incidence due to a rapid rise in adenocarcinoma rates in recent decades (from UpToDate, Qbank)
This line is true, however firstaid lists the risk factors for esophageal cancers, when it says usually squamous cell carcinoma, its not talking about the incidence or prevalence of the disease, but the relation that risk factor has with which cancer
Adenocarcinoma primarily barrets
Squamous cell, alcohol, smoking, previous lye ingestion, plummer vinson syndrome(webs ) , achalasia, tylosis ,
the increasing incidence of adenocarcinoma is in direct relation to the rise in adenocarcinoma.

345--swap SR with IO at the top, and IR with SO at the bottom,
there is no need to do this one, check anatomy book, this is a wrong correction confirmed by both keith and moore, and richard r snell clinical anatomy.

you are correct about the actions but the diagram is correct. the superior oblique runs to the trochlea first in the middle corner of the orbit which acts like a pully. It then passes back and inserts a little lateral from the midline on the corneasclero junction. If I had a way to draw it I would. so when it contracts it pulls the eye down and out. Its still on the top, but because it first goes to the corner of the middle of the eye,(for explanation purposes) think of the origin to be medial canthi. from their the muscle passes back and inserts a litte lateral to the midline. So when the muscle shortens it depresses and abducts. Similar type of thing for Io(actually a little different). Thus their is no typo in your book, so and sr are both above the eye, IR and IO are below. I have both of the aforementioned books, I didnt read why but clearly remember why. I confirmed by looking at the diagram. If you need better explanation of open up any anatomy book. look at the origin and insertion of so. Sometimes they call the troclea the physiologic origin.

lol now I see what you were saying, up untill now I thought you were talking about the diagram above the one you posted. I dont know if this was necessarily a typeo In an adducted position, the only elevators and depressors of the eye are the superior and inferior obliques. This is why we test superior oblique function by asking a patient to lookin nasally and then down. We test the inferior oblique function by asking someone to look nasally and the up. Second in a Abducted position, the only elevator and depressors of the eye are the Rectus muscles. We test the rectus muscles by asking a patient to look laterally and then up or down. The eye muscles are a little confusing, but they probably should have explained this diagram a liitle more.

Yes but it only would take sec to find, just check out how the test the function of intraocular muscles, look it up, and then you will get it.

I think you should go for FA as you must have already done KLN, so it would be better to just flip through the pages stopping at the charts and figures in the end coz thats what you will find mostly in medessentials and nothing more. So, it seems pointless to me. Besides FA has been highly recommended rather than ME.
