Most of those patients don't suffer from pancreatitis. Actually, the majority of patients were found to have amylase of parotid origin, not pancreatic origin. And others were found to have a mix of parotid & pancreatic amylase. Only a minority were found to have mainly pancreatic amylase.

Wada test, or
Intracarotid Amobarbital Procedure (IAP)

It is the gold-standard for testing cerebral dominance (lateralization).

Btw, we stopped using those 'truth serums' because we found out that they can create false memories.
So now I guess they're using them to plant false memories.

Empathy

The term itself is self-explanatory; we all understand what empathy is and where it comes from (spiritually), at least until the last decade.

The next example was a an interesting phenomena regarding whether *empathy* is physiological occurrence or is it just the psychological act of our so called ''morals''

“A patient named Smith is undergoing neurosurgery at the University of Toronto. He is fully awake and conscious. His scalp has been perfused with a local anesthetic and his skull has been opened. The surgeon places an electrode in Smith’s anterior cingulate, a region near the front of the brain where many of the neurons respond to pain.

And sure enough, the doctor is able to find a neuron that becomes active whenever Smith’s hand is poked with a needle.
But the surgeon is astonished by what he sees next....
The same neuron fires just as vigorously when Smith merely watches another patient being poked. It is as if the neuron (or the functional circuit of which it is a part) is empathizing with another person. A stranger’s pain becomes Smith’s pain, almost literally.

here is a neuron that doesn’t know the difference between self and other...
Are our brains uniquely hardwired for empathy and compassion?”

The case was an excerpt From dr. V. S. Ramachandran

Mirror neurons, they "mirror" the other person's subjective experience.
Btw they were first found in monkeys.

Aicardi syndrome:
A congenital malformation that is characterized by corpus callosum agenesis, presence of retinal lacunae, and epileptic seizures.

Its patients suffer from moderate to sever mental retardation and it's often associated with other congenital malformations.

الـ corpus callosum هذا جسر من المادة البيضاء يربط نصفين الدماغ ببعضهم. بحالة Aicardi المريض ينولد بدون هذا الجسر أصلًا، بالإضافة إلى لمّة تشوهات خَلقية ثانية.

بالمقابل، مرات إحنة جراحيًا نقطع هذا الجسر ببعض مرضى الصرع اللي يكون المرض عدهم شديد جدًا. العملية إسمها corpus callosotomy وعادةً ورة ما يخضعون إلها ما رح يعانون من intellectual disabilities جبيرة، والعملية أصلًا تكون حل أخير، ما نستخدمها بشكل روتيني.

Stages of HIV/AIDS

Speaking of HIV

HIV susceptibility is higher in those infected with gonorrhoea.

The bacteria contaminates the mucous membranes of the reproductive system, affecting both males and women's urethras as well as the cervix, uterus, and fallopian tubes in women.

The term "white fluid secretion from the urethra" was initially used to describe it, since it was believed to be an excess of semen in males. Hence, the name "Gono-" (semen) and "-rhhea" ( to flow )

However, what was actually coming out of the thin urethra was pus

Apart from that, gonnorrhea can be transmitted vertically from mother to child during delivery.
A serious condition,
called " opthalmia neonatorum "
The infection of the eye by gonococcal bacteria from his own mother's vagina that can ultimately lead to blindness.
