Physician
A physician (American English), medical practitioner (Commonwealth English), medical doctor, or simply doctor, is a health professional who practices medicine, which is concerned with promoting, maintaining or restoring health through the study, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of disease, injury, and other physical and mental impairments. Physicians may focus their practice on certain disease categories, types of patients, and methods of treatment—known as specialities—or they may assume responsibility for the provision of continuing and comprehensive medical care to individuals, families, and communities—known as general practice. Medical practice properly requires both a detailed knowledge of the academic disciplines, such as anatomy and physiology, underlying diseases and their treatment—the ''science'' of medicine—and also a decent competence in its applied practice—the art or ''craft'' of medicine. Both the role of the physician and the meaning ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Arneth Count
The ''Arneth count'' or ''Arneth index'' describes the nucleus of a type of white blood cell called a neutrophil in an attempt to detect disease. Neutrophils typically have two or three lobes. In general, older neutrophils have more lobes than younger neutrophils. The Arneth count determines the percentage of neutrophils with one, two, three, four, and five or more lobes. * Individuals who have a larger percentage of neutrophils with fewer lobes have a ''left shift'' which can be indicative of disease processes such as infection, malignant tumors, hemolytic crises, myocardial infarction, acidosis, etc. * Individuals with a larger percentage of neutrophils with more lobes have a ''right shift'' and most commonly have diseases such as vitamin B12 or folate deficiency, chronic uremia, liver disease, etc. The Arneth count is not commonly used in modern medicine. It is named for Josef Arneth Josef Arneth (13 October 1873, in Burgkunstadt – 1955) was a German physician and haem ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
