Medical Term

A slip of the typewriter has created a term which fills a need. "Clinical gudgement" is obviously derived from "gudgeon"—a gullible person, or, from the fish of that name, one who will swallow anything (Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, 1968). The term must refer to the practice of making clinical decisions on shaky or absent evidence; the complement, in fact, to the more familiar term. How about a "gudgement of the month" award?

Autism is a medical term that encompasses a broad spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by impaired reciprocal socialization and communication, often accompanied by restricted or repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. Due to the enlargement in the clinical diagnostic boundaries and the increased awareness of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the world has seen a dramatic increase in its prevalence during the last two decades. ASD is currently considered one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders worldwide. Frequently reported in terms of comorbidities, disabilities, burden and economic costs, the talents, gifts and abilities of people within the autistic spectrum only reaches the media when it amazes the audience. In this review, we want show that the high clinical heterogeneity found in autism can also be applied to the gifts and abilities, and that it must be nurtured with appropriate developmental, educational environment and above all, support and hope.

Abstract Background: Medical terminology is usually difficult for students to memorize such long and unfamiliar sound words. It really makes challenging for healthcare students. Ordinarily, there’re a variety of ways to learn medical terminology such as memorizing root words or making flashcards. However, students often get half the results with double the effort. Methods: In order to help students learn medical terminology more easily and interestingly, an online chatbot, Termbot, has been produced in this research that aims to provide learners with an interesting method to enhance their medical terminology by using Termbot on the online platform ©LINE at any time. Compared to traditional independent learning with online interactive learning, the Termbot is a great tool for students in memorizing English medical terminology by playing the Termbot online crossword puzzles. In this study, the experimental method is used to check whether Termbot affects students’ academic performance in learning medical terminology. Also, the experimental samples are divided into the experimental group and the control group. As the name implies, the experimental group is the group that accepts experimental operations, while the control group does not accept any experimental operations so that the researcher could compare the differences between the two groups to show the results of the experimental operations.Results: The interaction between students and Termbot via Line, students can use the online crossword puzzles provided by Termbot to help improve their learning of medical terminology. The experimental result in this study has shown that students trained with Termbot have made significant progress in learning such long medical term words. In addition, the result has also shown that the online Termbot has the potential to improve the learning process and learning outcomes.Conclusions: As students change their learning behaviors, the use of Termbot has improved their learning effectiveness, which clearly proves that it is a very useful learning tool. Without a doubt, Termbot is not only a great help for students’ learning medical terminology but can also be used to assist word learning in other fields.Trial registration: Not applicable.

Medical Term

The medical term for painful period is "dysmenorrhoea". Dysmenorrhoea among adolescents is of primary in nature that is without any pelvic pathology. Among Vimshati yonirogas described in Ayurveda classics Udavarta is men- tioned as a condition with painful and difficult menstruation, so it can be correlated to primary dysmenorrhoea. In this condition the Rajas flow in reverse direction hence the term Udavartini. Women feel immediate relief following discharge of menstrual blood. Normal menstrual flow is the function of Apana vata therefore Apana vata dushti can be considered as the responsible factor for Udavarta. Because of the high prevalence of dysmenorrhoea in adoles- cents and extent of its potential daily interference it should be seriously taken into consideration. Ayurvedic classic textbook along with available modern literatures were referred to make a clear view regarding the concept of Uda- varta and its possible correlation with primary dysmenorrhoea. Keywords: Primary dysmenorrhoea, Udavarta, dysmenorrhea
