Divine Intervention Episode 44 – USMLE Anatomy Series Part 1

In today’s episode, I use clinical cases and routine questions to cover anatomy content pertinent to the USMLE exams (especially Step 1). These are also potentially useful for the 3rd year surgery shelf. In consideration of the info dense nature of anatomy, the material will be discussed over a series of podcasts in bite sized pieces. Anatomy is relatively difficult to study for (especially for Step 1). The ultimate goal of these podcasts is to highlight HY, classically tested scenarios. Slides attached.

Divine Intervention Episode 37 – Risk Factors, Preventive Medicine, and Screening Guidelines.

In this episode, I discuss a large majority of the most important risk factors for commonly tested NBME diseases (including OBGYN). I also discuss high yield screening guidelines and “most common causes of death”. Easy points if you know this stuff on test day. Relevant for Step 1-3 and the M3 Shelf exams. No slides attached as all relevant information is in the podcast.

Divine Intervention Episode 36 – USMLE Ophthalmology.

In this podcast, I cover the great majority of the ophthalmology that would classically be tested on a medicine shelf, peds shelf, surgery shelf, Step 1/2CK/3, and the M3 neurology shelf with the most benefit being for the medicine shelf/Step 2CK/3. For those studying for the medicine shelf, consider this as an addition to the medicine reviews (ophthalmology was the significant thing lacking in those comprehensive recordings). This material will almost certainly be tested in some way on a medicine/surgery shelf. You definitely don’t want to blow this off. You will pay dearly. Slides attached.

ERRATA-At 1:26:55, delta F508 is the most common mutation in CF, not F501 as I mention. My sincere apologies.

The DASH diet is now regarded as the most effective lifestyle intervention for reducing BP (as of 2023). This is followed by weight loss, aerobic exercise, salt reduction, and alcohol restriction in decreasing order of effectiveness.
