| | Sherman sign predicts aortic regurgitation - From foot fetish to clinical pearl - Geriatrics |
| | The key descriptors are: 1) "quickly" located, ie, appreciated within 1 to 2 seconds of palpating the dorsum of the foot; and 2) "unexpectedly" prominent with a rapid arterial upstroke. | | | Although Osler said: "The whole art of medicine is in observation," the Sherman sign needs to be studied to determine its sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and future utility at the bedside.3 | | | Eponyms and the diagnosis of aortic regurgitation: what says the evidence? |

| | In a medical exam, if you're asked about the person an eponymous condition is named after, you can usually relax - the examiners have decided that you've clearly passed/failed/achieve a certain grade, and there's little chance that you can change that now (as long as you don't suggest doing something that would kill the patient). | | | Many medical conditions are named after a person - often the person who first described it (or was credited for doing so by many people). | | | Peter English remembers a professor of orthopaedics who loved to ask students about eponymous diseases or structures and the people they were named after. |

| | Subsequently, interest has focused on the dynamics of α-CEHE excretion and a growing list of other minor metabolites. | | | The eponymous "Simon" metabolites had an open chroman structure, consistent with α-tocopherol that had reacted as an antioxidant. | | | For example, evidence from limited studies have reported that only a small fraction-as low as 5% of administered α-tocopherol-is recovered as α-CEHC in the urine.31,33 Therefore, methods are needed that can account for the full complement of biologic metabolites. |

| | Rotarians, however, are unlikely to generate broad public awareness of previously ignored health problems, nor do they evince the kind of impatience with the pace of progress that is second nature to wealthy entrepreneurs. | | | Gates read an 1892 medical textbook that convinced him that diseases had causes, like germs and worms, that could be fought by science - not a universally accepted idea at the time. | | | The long drive to eradicate polio - which has reduced the incidence of the disease by 99 percent since the 1980's - has been handled by a partnership of governments, dedicated but relatively anonymous executives, and a network of hundreds of local American Rotary Clubs, which adopted the disease as their special mission in 1979. |
