What is the Disease Model of Addiction?

diseases No Comments »

This video describes the disease model of addiction. The disease model of addiction states that changes in the brain due to substance use greatly compromise an individual’s ability to stop using drugs or alcohol. This model treats substance use disorders more like a medical condition as opposed to a “decision to stop using.” Some other models of addiction more heavily weight the role of accountability, responsibility, and motivation in the recovery from substance use disorders. Many of the models offer something of value to the discussion of addiction treatment, however, it is my opinion that the disease model is currently the most useful model of addiction available.

The SIR model is one of the simplest disease models we have to explain the spread of a virus through a population. I first explain where the model comes from, including the assumptions that are made and how the equations are derived, before going on to use the results of the model to answer three important questions:

1. Will the disease spread? 6:32
2. What is the maximum number of people that will have the disease at one time? 11:00
3. How many people will catch the disease in total? 16:55

The answers to these questions are discussed in the context of the current COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak. The model tells us that to reduce the impact of the disease we need to lower the ‘contact ratio’ as much as possible – which is exactly what the current social distancing measures are designed to do.

Beriberi (Thiamine Deficiency): Wet vs Dry Beriberi, Pathophysiology, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment

Beriberi is a set of two conditions (Wet beriberi and Dry beriberi) that are caused by a deficiency of vitamin B1 (thiamine). Wet and dry beriberi have different pathophysiological mechanisms and different clinical features. In this lesson, we discuss the risk factors for getting beriberi, the pathophysiology of wet and dry beriberi, the signs and symptoms of both wet and dry beriberi, along with how clinicians diagnose and treat these conditions.

An introduction to Behcet’s Syndrome, including epidemiology, clinical features, diagnostic criteria, treatment, and prognosis. This is part of Strong Medicine’s series on Underappreciated Diseases.

There is a variety of ways in which the Behcet of Behcet’s Syndrome is pronounced around the world. In this video, I pronounce this condition with a soft ch sound (“beh-shet’s”), which is by far the most common pronunciation in the US. Internet references state that in Turkey (the home of Dr. Behcet), Behcet is pronounced with a hard ch (“Beh-chet’s”). However, the word should definitely *not* be pronounced with a silent T (“Beh-shay”).

Batten disease occurs when at least one of the thirteen known ceroid lipofuscinosis (CLN) genes is mutated. Gene therapy may offer a one-time treatment to slow or ideally stop the progression of these disorders by delivering a working gene to target the cause of the disease.

Crohn’s Disease Signs and Symptoms (& Why They Occur), and Complications & Deficiencies

Crohn’s disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that can involve inflammation anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract (anywhere from mouth to perianal region). Due to it being a chronic inflammatory state, Crohn’s disease can lead to not only many gastrointestinal signs and symptoms and nutrient deficiencies, but also to many extra-intestinal manifestations (including skin conditions). In this lesson, we discuss all of these gastrointestinal features, along with nutrient deficiencies, and extra-intestinal manifestations.

Disease – What causes diseases.

diseases No Comments »

Aetiology of disease caused by external factors.
The cause of a disease is correctly described as the aetiology. Aetiology is ‘that which causes’. Factors which may be involved in disease causation are therefore termed aetiological factors. So the aetiology causes the pathophysiology which in turn generates the clinical features of the disease. Aetiological factors may arise from within the individual, or from the environment the person is exposed to. Factors arising from within are called endogenous; those from the environment are exogenous.
Any factor from the environment which contributes to disease aetiology is exogenous. These factors are also commonly referred to as environmental. This environment includes the one experienced in the uterus, before birth.
