    "Learn by Heart."   The ancient Greeks believed that the heart, the most noticeable internal organ, was the seat of intelligence and memory as well as emotion.  This belief was passed on down the ages and became the basis for the English expression "learn by heart," which is used by Chaucer (1374) and must have been proverbial long before that.  "To record" reminds again of this ancient belief in the heart as the seat of the mind.  When writing wasn't a simple act, things had to be memorized; thus we have the word record, formed from the Latin re, "again," and cor, "heart," which means exactly the same as to learn by heart.

    • How did it get that name?
    Carotid Artery.  The ancients knew that if you pressed the arteries leading to the head long enough, unconsciousness would result.  Thus they named these arteries karotides, from the Greek karoun, to stupefy. Karotide later became carotid in English.  (Source:  LWW.com)

    • Are Anatomical Models Always Accurate?
    I would never assume that the Somso and other anatomical models are correct. For example -- unless I am misinterpreting something -- all of my torso models (the typical 3/4- or full-scale model from head to pelvis, with removal thoracic and abdominal viscera) show the jugular veins incorrectly. They show two large veins converging near the angle of the mandible, as if the internal and external jugulars anastomose there in parallel to the branching of the internal and external carotids. Maybe I'm just stupidly overlooking something obvious, but it looks to me like the model designer falsely assumed that the jugular veins would follow the same pattern as the carotid arteries. I do have a Somso head model that has the jugulars correct and shows them much differently than the torso models do. Things like this are enough to shake one's confidence in anatomical models and never to take them as unquestionably authoritative.  -- Dr. Ken Saladin, June 2005.

    •  Liver Trivia (from LWW.com)
    • The average human liver is more than five times the weight of the human heart. The liver stretches across almost the width of the body, occupying a space about the size of a football. It weighs more than 3 pounds. 
    • If 80 percent of your liver were to be removed, the remaining part would continue to function. Within a few months, the liver would have reconstituted itself to its original size. 
    One easy way to remember which abdominopelvic organs are retroperitoneal is to use a mnemonic such as SAD PUCKER:

    S = Suprarenal (adrenal) glands
    A = Aorta/Inferior Vena Cava
    D = Duodenum (second and third segments)

    P = Pancreas
    U = Ureters
    C = Colon (ascending and descending only)
    K = Kidneys
    E = Esophagus
    R = Rectum

    Or instead, 
    Ursula Uses Kids to Deliver All Lemon Pies except Sue’s Tasty Crust
    Ureters
    Urinary bladder
    Kidneys
    Duodenum
    Adrenal glands
    Large intestine
    Pancreas
    except (not retroperitoneal) Sigmoid and Transverse Colon

    • Thyroid. The thyroid cartilage, or Adam's Apple, which protects the throat, was named for its resemblance to the shields of Homeric warriors, deriving from the Greek work for "shield" or "shield-shaped." It gave its name to the thyroid gland that straddles the windpipe. The term is first recorded in 1693. [from LWW.com]

    Lung function values are influenced by height, age, and sex. Consequently, to compare pulmonary function among different individuals, percent predicted values can be determined from the following equations (A = age in yr, and H = height in cm):  Forced vital capacity = FVC. 
    FVC males: 0.0844(H) - 0.0298(A) - 8.782 
    FVC females: 0.0427(H) - 0.0174(A) - 2.900

  • LAB QUIZ 8 on the previous lab will be administered at the start of lab. 
    • Renal segmental vessels:  Arteries yes. Veins, no.
    Gray's Anatomy, for one, recognizes segmental arteries but denies the existence of segmental veins (38e p. 1827). Gartner & Hiatt's Color Textbook of Histology (1e p. 374) says "Note the absence of lobar and segmental veins in contrast with the arterial system of the kidney." Hollinshead's Textbook of Anatomy (5e p. 615-616) describes the segmental arteries and then explicitly states that the kidneys do not have segmental veins. Clement's Anatomy illustrates and labels the segmental arteries, and illustrates the venous drainage without identifying or showing any segmental veins. Fawcett's Textbook of Histology (12e, p. 753-754) describes the segmental arteries but conspicuously omits segmental veins from its detailed description of the venous drainage. Bailey's Textbook of Microscopic Anatomy (18e p. 671) also describes the venous drainage in reasonable detail, with no mention of segmental veins. -- Dr. Ken Saladin June, 2005

      • "Specific gravity (which is directly proportional to urine osmolality which measures solute concentration) measures urine density, or the ability of the kidney to concentrate or dilute the urine over that of plasma.  Dipsticks are available that also measure specific gravity in approximations.  Most laboratories measure specific gravity with a refractometer.
      Specific gravity between 1.002 and 1.035 on a random sample should be considered normal if kidney function is normal.  Since the sp gr of the glomerular filtrate in Bowman's space ranges from 1.007 to 1.010, any measurement below this range indicates hydration and any measurement above it indicates relative dehydration."
      "Less than 0.1% of glucose normally filtered by the glomerulus appears in urine (< 130 mg/24 hr).  Glycosuria (excess sugar in urine) generally means diabetes mellitus. Dipsticks employing the glucose oxidase reaction for screening are specific for glucos glucose but can miss other reducing sugars such as galactose and fructose. For this reason, most newborn and infant urines are routinely screened for reducing sugars by methods other than glucose oxidase (such as the Clinitest, a modified Benedict's copper reduction test)."

    • Wasserman test:
    Many medical tests, including the Pap test for cancer and the Schick test for diphtheria, are named for the physicians who devised them. The Wasserman test was invented in 1906 by August von Wasserman (1866-1925), a German physician and bacteriologist. This laboratory blood test for the diagnosis of syphilis, also known as the cardiolipin test, has been perfected to the point where it is 99 percent effective on normal persons. The test is based on the presence of antibodies in the blood. In most cases a positive Wasserman reveals that the patient has syphilis, although vaccination procedures and several diseases, such as leprosy, also produce a positive Wasserman. August von Wasserman, who began his career as a physician in Strasbourg, won international fame for his discovery. He became director of Berlin's Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in 1913.  Source: http://www.lww.com/static/insider/november-06.html
