  • CFP Medical Readership Information Study, 2020
    MRIStudy Medical Readership Information 2020 Results of a study of the reading patterns and preferences of Canadian family physicians conducted by the College of Family Physicians of Canada THE COLLEGE OF LE COLLÈGE DES FAMILY PHYSICIANS MÉDECINS DE FAMILLE OF CANADA DU CANADA The College of Family Physicians of Canada 2020 About the MRI Study The study was conducted during June-July, 2020. A draw for an Apple iPad was ofered as an incentive for completing the survey. The population studied was the approximately 38,000 physicians who are currently members in good standing of the College of Family Physicians of Canada. A total of 5,000 random members were invited to participate. The e-mail message to members made it clear that the survey originated with the College of Family Physicians of Canada. The invitation was sent in English and French. The invitation e-mail directed physicians to the survey questionnaire in the language of their choice, located on an independent, third-party survey site. Results were compiled using Survey Gizmo. A total of 309 family physicians completed the survey, including 279 in English and 30 in French. All responses were entirely anonymous. Medical Readership Information Study 2020 1 Notes Member survey This is a survey of members of the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC), almost all of whom receive Canadian Family Physician (CFP) as a benefit of membership. This may mean that there is some degree of “halo effect” in which overall attitudes revealed in questions regarding journal readership tend to favour CFP. Journal readership patterns among francophone readers may be particularly affected.

POIS can occur either after intercourse or masturbation, starting seconds to hours after having an orgasm, and can be lasted to 2 - 7 days. The prevalence and incidence of POIS itself are not certainly known. Reviews: Waldinger and colleagues were the first to report cases of POIS and later in establishing the diagnosis, they proposed 5 preliminary diagnostic criteria, also known as Waldinger's Preliminary Diagnostic Criteria (WPDC). Symptoms can vary from somatic to psychological complaints. The mechanism underlying this disease are not clear. Immune modulated mechanism is one of the hypothesis that is widely believed to be the cause of this syndrome apart from opioid withdrawal and disordered cytokine or neuroendocrine responses. POIS treatment is also not standardized. Treatments includeintra lymphatic hyposensitization of autologous semen, non-steroid anti-inflamation drugs (NSAIDs), steroids such as Prednisone, antihistamines, benzodiazepines, hormones (hCG and Testosterone), alpha-blockers, and other adjuvant medications.

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Diagnosis and Management JILL N
    Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Diagnosis and Management JILL N. FENSKE, MD, and THOMAS L. SCHWENK, MD, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan Obsessive-compulsive disorder is an illness that can cause marked distress and disability. It often goes unrecognized and is undertreated. Primary care physicians should be familiar with the various ways obsessive-compulsive disorder can present and should be able to recognize clues to the presence of obsessions or compulsions. Proper diagnosis and education about the nature of the disorder are important first steps in recovery. Treatment is rarely curative, but patients can have significant improvement in symptoms. Recommended first-line therapy is cog- nitive behavior therapy with exposure and response prevention or a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. The medication doses required for treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder are often higher than those for other indications, and the length of time to response is typi- cally longer. There are a variety of options for treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder, including augmentation of a selec- tive serotonin reuptake inhibitor with an atypical antipsychotic. ECK Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a chronic condition with a high rate B of relapse. Discontinuation of treatment should be undertaken with oan caution. Patients should be closely monitored for comorbid depression and suicidal ideation. (Am Fam Physician. 2009;80(3):239-245. Copy- right © 2009 American Academy of Family Physicians.)
