5 mm

give them 2L hydration daily

25
Q

What happens if someone is B12 deficient and you replace folic acid

A

megaloblastosis corrects, but neuro symptoms rapidly progress

26
Q

Will antipsychotics disrupt the TSH HPA

A

nope, just prolactin ↑

27
Q

Hawthorn effect

A

sample changes their behavior when they know they are being studied

form of bias

28
