Accuracy, definition, integrity in medical terminology

Accuracy, definition, integrity are the cornerstones of correct information. The importance of fidelity in words is not only a due act, but above all an act of faith for those who believe in the teaching of human life Accuracy: The Mediterranean diet An Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, the Mediterranean diet rests on fragile foundations and data. Based on the "Seven Countries Study", designed and led in the 60s by the American nutritionist Ancel Keys, enrolled only men, and never established a link between diet and mortality. In the then life style, more than just a way of eating, the wheat was whole, the bread was "full-grain bread". In the subsequent translation the global spread the term "full-grain" simply disappeared. The habits of that time envisaged principles that in no way could be equally considered in following years, when everything changed. Definition of description. The rare diseases A disease is rare if its prevalence is of five people affected per 10,000 inhabitants. This relationship is fixed but the conditions that fall into it are not. A genetic syndrome, i.e. a set of signs due to a single mutation, usually originate from a description, not from a discovery. The term description well defines something that can include or exclude during times, that can evolve. Understanding the concept of description means understanding the evolution of definitions and discovering cases where no one would ever look. Integrity. Sex and gender medicine. The foundation of gender medicine. Each human being, is identified as male or female according to sex-chromosomes and, if linked to social interaction as humans are, by its gender Sex and gender have a different meaning and are expressed separately, in almost all languages (not in German for example). The two terms are not interchangeable, they are not synonyms. Having eliminated the term 'sex' from the definition of gender medicine has opened the door to a confused perspective and has paved the way to the inclusion of topics that have little or nothing to do with the original principle.
