Vitamine B12 (Cobalamine)

Le 2006-1-12 j'ai donné une conférence à l'hôpital Ste-Anne, titré « Devons-nous donner de la vitamine B12 à tous nos patients

On 2006-1-12 I made a presentation at Ste. Anne's Hospital, titled "Should we give vitamin B12 to all our elderly patients?" Below are links to pdf files of the presentation itself (overhead slides and notes), and a bibliography.

Another way to get around the Internet Explorer problem (if you're stuck with that particular browser) is to download a pdf file of the presentation. Be warned, though; this file is 22.8 MBytes, and will take some time to download on a slow connection!

Documentation dans le dossier des symptomes, signes, et comportements en psychiatrie

In dealing with acutely ill psychiatric inpatients, we are concerned primarily with behaviours (ie what the patient says and does) as well as with what the patient complains of (symptoms) and what we can observe (signs). Here is a guide to what to write down in the patient chart, organized either by syndrome or by type of treatment.

Régime de Atkins

My wife Helen and I have been following an Atkins low-carb diet since 1995, in order to prevent weight gain and to avoid type II diabetes which runs in both our families. The decision to follow this diet is based on an ongoing perusal of the medical literature in this area.
