    Study Notes

    Radiographic Findings

    • Osteitis Condensans Ili: Symmetrical triangular areas of sclerosis on the iliac side of the SI joint with no signs of SI joint erosion or disruption.
    • Osteitis Pubis: Erosions and sclerosis at the symphysis pubis. More common than infection.
    • Disc Extrusion: Disc herniation with the nucleus extruding and moving inferiorly behind the vertebral body.
    • Spondylolisthesis: Change or orientation of vertebrae, "Napoleons hat sign," indicates a grade 4 or 5 spondylolisthesis.
    • Focal disc bulge or disc protrusion: Specific/focal protrusion without signs of extrusion.
    • Circumferential disc Bulge: Disc herniation extending around the entire circumference of the disc.

    Other Important Concepts

    • Determinants of health: Factors that impact the health of individuals and populations.
    • Evidence-based care: Promotes an active shared role for consumers in health care decision-making.
    • Somatic Symptom Disorder: Best treated within a rehabilitation framework.
    • Primary dysmenorrhoea: Caused by excessive prostaglandins.
    • Menorrhagia: Excessive menstrual blood loss.
    • Scurvy: Symptoms include bleeding gums, joint pain, frequent infections, and softened bones. No hysteria.
    • Spina bifida: Increased risk with a deficiency in folic acid.
    • Bioavailability: Folic acid in supplements has higher bioavailability compared to food sources.
    • Conversion Symptoms: Medically unexplained involuntary motor or sensory symptoms, such as blindness. More common in young females.
    • Health Inequality: Systemic racism and discrimination are linked to health inequalities experienced by First Nations people.
    • Vitamin B7 (Biotin): Doesn't reduce homocysteine levels in the body.
