Happy New Year everybody! I hope everyone enjoyed the Holiday season. Now back to work!
I like to put together a list of the most-viewed posts of the year at the end of the year. It’s fun to see what people want to read about. It’s not always what I think it might be. It’s fun, too, to see how much we grow from year to year. Our newsletters (Path Bites and our Blog Post newsletter) have about 8,500 subscribers, which a few years ago would have seemed unbelievable. We have a lot of visitors to the site, too – 1.1 million (really!) page views and 799,000 individual visitors this past year, which is up quite a bit from the previous year. Yay! The more people that find Pathology Student useful, the better!
Without further number-crunching, here are the top-viewed posts of 2013.
1. How come the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways are named that way?
2. Does reticulocytosis cause a macrocytic anemia?
3. A simple summary of glomerulonephritis
4. Multipotent vs. pluripotent stem cells
5. A crash course in how to tell apart leukemia and lymphoma
6. Differentiation vs. dysplasia
7. Germline vs. somatic mutations
8. Can you solve this case?
9. I have myeloma – please help me understand some terms.
10. Reticulin vs. collagen fibrosis
And here are the most-viewed posts overall.
1. Conjugated vs. unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia
2. Nephrotic vs. nephritic syndrome
3. Left shift
4. What is an M-spike?
5. A quick summary of the 6 types of necrosis
7. Owl’s eye nuclei
8. The four main types of rosettes in pathology
9. The little Orphan Annie tumor
10. Identifying normal leukocytes
Can chronic megaloblastic anemia lead to IDA as macrocytes destruction in spleen lead to reduced haemoglobin level?
I have not heard of that, and I don’t think that would happen. The two can occur concurrently though, presumably due to atrophic gastritis and malabsorption.
