Interpreting the Medical Literature Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A statistician might find Gehlbach's explanations a bit too simplistic, but I think it gives a fantastic overview of how to approach interpretation of journal articles. An attending asked us to buy the second edition of this book when I was a 3rd Year med student, and I still use it today teaching residents. He does an excellent job using examples from the literature to illustrate his points. And, unlike other statistical texts, the index can help you grasp topics like the null hypothesis or type I error very quickly.

Vander's Renal Physiology (LANGE Physiology Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For anyone who struggled to understand why the nephron concentrates, then dilutes, then concentrates again the urine, this book will do much to ease your pain.

#1: short book, (you know how intimidating those tomes can be)
#2: lots of diagrams
#3: end-of-chapter questions (with answers & explanations)
If you want to understand the Kidney, no matter where you are in your studies or practice, I wholeheartedly recommend this text.

Deja Review Emergency Medicine, 2nd Edition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am currently a fourth year medical student going into emergency medicine. I really wanted to do well for my clerkships so I read the basic EM books that many students read such as first aid. A friend who actually was a reviewer for the book let me borrow it a few weeks during my clerkship. I read via the book and wished I had this book earlier! I tried to do a review below with positives and negatives.
Overview: This is the second edition but did read the first edition as a third year for a brief two week rotation. The Deja Review series is very similar to the First Aid series or Recall which follows a question and answer format which I prefer much more than the fact-type books. Since i have read both recall and First Aid I do have something to compare it to. It has a nice clean attractive look full of useful high-yield information, charts, and vignettes.
I'll start with the negatives:
1. Size: While a great book it is kind of on the bigger size to carry in the ED. I usually read it in between patients or at home and used Pocket EM for my on the go stuff.
2. Organization: not really a bad depending how you like to learn. It is organized by organ system which is what I prefer to learn by so I really don't see this as a negative. I know some of my friends that prefer chief complaints.
3. Not sure if this is a negative but it is not a text book. While awesome as a "pimp" book, it does not really explain pathophysiology like Rosen's but that is to be expected since this book is designed as a question/answer book. Just something to keep in mind.
Positive:
1. Many good things to say, the biggest seller for me is the high-yield information that was covered in this book. The residents and attendings I worked with asked me many "pimp" questions in this book which at the end of the day is important and helps you stand out.
2. Vignettes: I really liked the clinical vignettes at the end of each chapter. It helped to reinforce the stuff I read in the chapter. These vignettes presented bread and butter cases so no mystery. The thing I really thought was unique about this book was the stimulus section. This is similar to the the section for the written boards that residents take each year. It was short and wish there was more but had good images and great cases.
3. Charts: High-yield charts that presented key information like ped vitals and tox antidotes, very well done.Overall:
I think this is an excellent review book that any med student interested in EM would find very useful. With the combination of its high yield questions, clinical cases, and stimulus section it really hits all the main points. I got this book for free but definitely worth the 20ish dollars listed here. I don,t think you will regret getting this book.

The Patient History: Evidence-Based Approach (Lange Medical Books) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews).......... This book is the best book for 2nd and 3rd year students who are interacting with patients for the first time. the hardest part about taking a history is knowing what questions to ask. this book TELLS YOU. It's organized by system and by Chief complaint, each section includes a well thought out DDx, and a list of questions you should ask and what it mean if the patient says yes. it also tells you what physical signs to look for and what lab tests to order. Your presentations and H&Ps will through and you will understand why you ask all those silly questions in the first place.

CURRENT Medical Diagnosis and Treatment 2011 (LANGE CURRENT Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wish I'd read the reviews of th 2010 edition before downloading the current Kindle edition. I have the 2008 paperback and love the book, but as a Kindle reviewer said in another review, it is nearly impossible to find what you are looking for in the Kindle edition. Using Kindle for PC the searches are fairly fast, but you only get a few words associated and a bunch of hits, so that you need to go through every hit to find what you are looking for, a BIG time waster. Even worse, I got this mostly so I could have a medical reference on my iPod Touch. Searching and finding what you want is cumbersome, poorly executed, and SLOOW.... It is hard to find even the Table of Contents on the Touch, and even the index is nearly useless. This is a great book in paperback, too bad I wasted $50 on the Kindle edition.

First Exposure to General Surgery Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Great review of basic surgical procedures, indications, complications, etc. Unfortunately the surgery clerkship shelf by NBME covers more medical management of surgical patients, so this book has one chapter that is useful for that. But if you are looking to be an all-star in the OR, read this book before your procedures and you'll know more than most other students. Grab yourself a different book for the shelf exam studying, though.

Case Files: Obstetrics & Gynecology Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Echoing the sentiments of previous reviewers, this book basically has 30-40% of the Ob/Gyn shelf within its pages. A lot of my friends read the book as well and were similarly amazed at its mimcry. Some of the questions seem to directly stem from the 60 cases in this text. You're hurting yourself by NOT reading this. It provides a good foundation for the major scenarios you might encounter in Ob/Gyn. It's particularly effective because the Ob/Gyn shelf is really specialized to the field and doesn't have too many general medicine questions like other clerkship tests.
That said, it should be noted this is not a textbook. You won't really get the ins and outs of fetal monitoring, birth, etc. This book is best utilized about a week from the exam or very early with the intent of RETAINING the specific scenarios. A good book to read to fully flesh out the subject would be Blueprints in Ob/Gyn.
A quick, effective read that's the easiest way to bettering your shelf score. If you enjoy your off time in med school, this is a great way to cram.

This is a much better way to learn clinical information. I have not read a book like this before, and I certainly have enjoyed it." -–Eric Hossler, Medical Student, James H. Quillen College of Medicine"I LOVED this book!I would recommend this book to all third-year students… The book uses a clinical approach and does not lose sight of the pathophysiology behind the disease -- GREAT preparation for being on the wards!The subject matter is also deceptively detailed, with much more information than one normally finds in a text of case files.The reader can use this book as either a rigorous self-test or a read-through introduction to the subject.Once again - a GREAT text!" -–Elizabeth Johnston, Medical Student, Emory University

Harrison's Manual of Medicine, 17th Edition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I understand the intention of Harrison's editors to provide us with a little version of this standard textbook, but honestly, I don't like it. I have owned several editions of this book, but I have never used it, because it is not a practical book. It is short in practical details (like disease management) and long in some other details. If you are looking for a handbook that can help you in clinical practice, forget about this one. There are so many better books out there (Washington, Ferri's,...). This book can be helpful for medical students to review medicine before exams or rotations. However, I have to say that new edition is much better than previous ones. At least it has more algorithms. Also, stay away from PDA version. It is even more stripped down! For your PDA, I highly recommend Ferri's Practical Guide or Washington Manual or 5 Minutes Clinical Consult.

20 Common Probems in Dermatology Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a medical student who is getting his first taste of Dermatology. Since our notes do not include color photographs, I decided to buy a book. At first, I was tempted by color atlases but then I found this book. Not only does it contain color photos, but each chapter is dedicated to a specific problem (e.g. warts) and covers such issues as treatment and prognosis. Color atlases are nice but, if you want more info as to what to actually do about the disease, you might want to give this book a try.
