Medicine's all about pattern recognition. :p:

If I say I have the same teaching pattern as him (not similar - the same), one might not be untoward in believing we go to the same university :p:

My sleep pattern would be considered pretty normal then :biggrin:

My mistake :O Oops.


Original post by Helenia
That is a sign you should be in bed. There comes a point when sleep is more important and more useful than trying to cram.


Good point. Although I suppose when cramming it feels like I'm doing something! Sleeping, although amazing, feels like a waste of time at this stage :frown:

Dude that was so long ago I don't even know what my point was :p:
Greetings one and all!

I've been away from TSR for a while, signed in today and realised there was something missing on my homepage - watching this thread. Hadn't subbed to it since the new one was created! Fail.

Busy busy term at the moment though. Two weeks in and I think I need another holiday.

hmm..iBsc brochure, methinks I might be heading to Neuro...my worry is that I'll be very rusty on the pre-clinical science compared to all the second years - there is also the inkling of fear at having to do neuroanatomy, again.
Our iBSc deadline is on the 7th Feb. Neuro is in my shortlist. Kinda swaying towards Med Ed though. There aren't many choices here tbh. :sad:

Anatomically, when something is described as proper as in 'Notice that this is only a short distance and that the artery proper is not very long' - does it just refer to the main bulk of the thing?

It's the use of it as in everyday (well well-spoken everyday) English.

So my guess is that you're talking about one of the coronary arteries right?
The blah proper is it in its full self in that case, before it branches off into e.g. Left anterior descending etc.

I have never heard proper used and I have only not done the lower leg and intrinsic muscles of the hand :s-smilie:


It's an English word haha!

Like I dunno, London Transport covers more land than just that designated as London proper...

(Poor example, but here I'm basically saying that TfL covers more than just central london, it goes out to watford and so on...)

Maybe someone else can explain better but it is a real word hehe
I always thought of 'proper' as the main bit before an artery branches off - sort of like hepatic artery proper etc.

But what do I know, our anatomy teaching here clearly fails!
Are they the same thing? :confused:

The hepatic artery proper is a branch off the common, no?
That's what I thought - didn't think they were synonymous.

EDIT: Just checked on WIKI and they're not.

Hah! How do you still remember that line from D&P? Impressive! Yes it is the coronary arteries. I understand what you're saying, and it makes sense, but I've also heard it used in other contexts such as the 'embryo proper'. As the embryo doesn't really 'branch off' (unless talking about the main trunk perhaps?), what would it mean in this instance?

As the old joke goes.

BL is famous for it's lack of anatomy knowledge, that might even have been true as recently as three or four years. But, you have pretty good teaching now and most BL students, those that will graduate in 2012 onwards, have a good anatomy knowledge.

What does proper mean when it is said ' Connective tissue proper' ?
