Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book provides psychiatrists and other clinicians who routinely evaluate psychiatric symptoms with the tools needed to rule out systemic medical conditions that could be causing those symptoms. It starts with an introduction that reviews why this text is needed and potential gaps in training that might contribute to the necessity for such a text. Each chapter thereafter focuses on a specific symptom which is first defined to ensure accuracy. A differential of common psychiatric and systemic medical conditions that can cause each psychiatric symptom is described. For each diagnosis, key history, physical exam, laboratory, and radiologic findings that help rule the condition out are provided. Screening tools that can help rule out systemic medical etiologies are also included. Where available from the literature, positive predictive values (PPVs) are provided to help readers to understand the likelihood that a negative finding or result indicates that a systemic medical disorder is not present. While individual aspects of this text exist in other formats, the comprehensive nature of our approach, from thorough descriptions of psychiatric symptoms, to |

means of ruling out potential systemic medical etiologies, is not currently available. This text will assist clinicians in ruling out systemic medical etiologies of common psychiatric symptoms, ensuring that patients are diagnosed correctly. Such an improvement in diagnostic precision has the potential to dramatically improve patient outcomes. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This chapter investigates to what extent the process of second language acquisition is influenced by amount and type of input. After a brief description of the place of English in the lives of secondary school students in the Netherlands, the article reports on a semi-longitudinal study comparing students whose out-of-school contact with English is quite limited and a group of students who have regular access to English popular media. Both groups were tested in a high-input condition (bilingual education) and in a low-input condition (monolingual education). The findings show a complex relation between the role of out-of-school and in-school input and developing proficiency that can only be discovered through a semi-longitudinal approach. |
