Best medical-review blog, blog carnival week
What happened to Carnival medblog "Grand Rounds"? It is sad to see that the disappearance of the Carnival medblog "Grand rounds". The weekly summary of the best medical blog post was published from 2004, with only a few breaks. There have been issues for more than a month, and no new ones are planned. A new initiative from Health Care SoMedia review could replace some of them http://goo.gl/73RpE
This post is a part of a project to recreate a weekly review, or the best medical blog carnival blog posts. Feel free to send your suggestions to my email at clinicalcases@gmail.com. "Best of Medical Blogs-weekly review, blog carnival" will be released on Tuesday, just as the old Grand rounds. The organizers of blog carnival Grand Rounds. @ NickGenes, and @ DrVal are aware of this project.
As physicians to manage Social Media profiles
Personal vs. Professional: how doctors handle Their Social Media profiles is a blog post by Matt Wood of http://goo.gl/JNyu1 blog of medicine from the University of Chicago. Matt has posted a series of great blog post recently about using social media. Doctors at the University of Chicago are clearly the leader in using social media in a city with a rich history of great medical centers as medicine UChicago, Northwestern, Childrens ' Memorial, Rush, Loyola and Northshore. Matt tries to discover what makes the UChicago doctors more comfortable using social media that their peers at other institutions: http://goo.gl/JNyu1
Consumers use social media for medical decisions
Consumer expectations for Social Media Healthcare – this is a brief summary by Ed Bennett, "a maker of lists" of using the oragnizations healtchare social media http://goo.gl/REXqV
Digital strategies for health care organizations-a good overview from the Australian http://goo.gl/PZtWl blog IV line
Salaries of doctors
Dr. Mandrola quotes a colleague experienced salaries of doctors: "we are all happy with what we do. What upsets us most is seeing what others are doing. " Since then, I try not to dwell on what others do. http://goo.gl/WBnJq
Health care social media is a "moral obligation" for physicians
Health care social media is a moral obligation, says Farris Timimi, M.D., Medical Director for the Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media, quoted by "Fierce health IT". Social media must be grown and nurtured for patients. "Our patients are there. Our moral obligation is to meet them where they are and give them the information they need so they can try to recover, "said Dr. Timimi. "You have to be ready for this. Builds for patients; not for themselves. "This is not marketing," he added. "This is the right thing to do" http://goo.gl/BHzKf
Social media is no longer a moral obligation for physicians rather than appear on TV and radio shows and write newspaper columns. It's nice if you have the time and the ability to do so, but the most important things is to focus on what matters most — providing the correct diagnosis and the best treatment possible for your patients.

Memory leak-clinical focus on practical Neurology
These are excerpts from a review in the Medical Journal of Australia (MJA):Elderly with mild cognitive impairment are at increased risk of progression to dementia but no test is useful in evaluating this risk. Medications are not favorable in mild cognitive impairment.
Physical activity and treatment of high blood pressure decrease the risk of dementia.
In people with Alzheimer's disease, a cholinesterase inhibitor or Memantine (a receptor antagonist, N-methyl-D-aspartate) provides a symptomatic relief. Drugs do not change the progression of the disease.
Psychological and behavioral symptoms are common in Alzheimer's disease.
Atypical antipsychotics reduce agitation and psychosis, but increase the risk of cardiovascular events.
Role in the management of depression antidepressant with mild cognitive impairment is uncertain, but they may increase the risk of falls and delirium.
