SGA BBQ Beach Bash The Student Government Association at Xavier is an important student run organization that essentially bridges the gap between the students and the school. SGA is responsible for governing student interests, advocating the concerns of students to administration, providing support and recognition for student organizations, and serving the students at XUSOM by hosting activities and events that enhance student life, like the semesterannual White Coat Ceremony.

On Wednesday, February 13th Student Government Association hosted their second BBQ beach bash at Splash Park Aruba. Aside from the White Coat Ceremony, the beach bash is the best way for incoming medical students to get to know their professors and senior classmates. Last semester, as an MD1 student, being able to take a step back from classes and share some wholehearted laughs with my peers and professors made the school seem like more of a family. It is so easy for us as medical stu-

dents to get caught up in the books and forget how healing an evening on the beach truly is. This semester was no different, as the student body came together to enjoy some fun in the water and delicious Aruban BBQ. This semester, SGA had XUSOM t-shirts made that were a hit amongst us all! It was a night we won’t soon forget, and one we will all be looking forward to again next semester! By: Taylor Heverly, MD 2

5 Golden Tips to Succeed in Medical School

By: Dr. Gopikumar

The modern world has transformed to be highly competitive. There is quite an amount of struggle involved in pursuing any course or graduating in any field. When we talk about earning a Medical Degree, the amount of stress and competition is increased. We keep hearing from many medical students that this course is very stressful, very tiring and so on. In reality, becoming a successful physician and surviving the competition is not as difficult as each and every medical student feels. Each and everyone joins a medical school with the dream that he or she wants to be a great physician in the future and will be highly motivated at the beginning. As they progress through the medical school their goals and dreams may start to wane and they can go off track and get lost in the vast desert of ambiguity. We as professors do not want students to lose their path and keep their dreams unfulfilled. In an effort to keep your dreams alive and to make sure that you achieve success, I have devised 5 golden tips which could help you as a medical student to absorb the extra stress and make your journey of medicine relatively easier. 1. PAY ATTENTION DURING A LECTURE: I have person-

ally met many successful medical students and have asked them about what do they feel is the secret of their success. You will be surprised to know that the answer from all of them was the same and their answer was “We made sure we attended all the lectures and paid utmost attention during all the lectures!” Advantages of lectures are •The professor will concise the topic for you – Instead of reading 10 – 12 pages of material which will take away a lot of your time, if you could pay attention to the lecture, you have done yourself a big help. •The professor will tell what is important in that topic so that you can concentrate on what is important, and not wasting your time on what is not needed for you! We do understand that it is extremely difficult for somebody to sit and listen to lectures for 4 to 6 hours in a day, but remember nothing comes easy in this world. The best way to stay focused in the class is to develop an interest and curiosity about each and every subject of medicine. Before each and every lecture ask yourself a few questions about the topic of your lecture and try to find answers for questions during that lecture. If there is an incident in your life that connects you with the topic of the lecture, remember that incident before your lecture and this helps you stay focused during lecture. Try to develop your own techniques just to stay focused during the lecture as this makes your life very easy. The take home message is “STAY FOCUSSED DURING LECTURE”.

2. REVISING THE TOPIC WHEN THE INFORMATION IS FRESH IN YOUR MIND: When you listen to a lecture, the information which you have gained from the lecture goes into your short term memory! This information evaporates out of your brain very quickly if you don’t convert your short term memory into long term memory. The best way to convert any information into long term memory is by revising it multiple times. Make sure you revise the topic of lecture on the very same day and this helps to you to remember that information for a very long time. Please make sure you allocate 1 or 1.5 hours of each days reading to revise the topics what you learnt on that day. 3. IDENTIFY THE BEST WAY OF LEARNING: Each and every student has a tailormade best way of learning. The different modes of learning are a. Watching an education video. b. Reading a text book. c. Group Discussion with friends. Identify and document which one of the following is the best learning method which suits you the best. If you feel watching a video helps you learn better, then you spend most of your time in learning from a video (from a source that gives you valid clear evidence based information), rather than sitting in front of text books for hours together and gaining nothing. Identify the way of learning will help you to use your time appropriately and helps you to avoid wasting of time. Word of caution: Whatever may be the best way of learning, textbooks and professors are always the

best source of accurate information. Rely on them if you have some contradicting information about a topic. 4. GOOD TIME MANAGEMENT: We always keep chanting “I don’t have time!” Remember, most successful people don’t ever say that. As a medical student it is very important that you manage your time really well. If a medical student has this habit of procrastination, he will never succeed in his career. Advantages of a good time management: •You become more productive and gain more selfesteem and confidence. •You reduce your stress •You achieve balance in life •You reach your GOALS 5. IMAGINE YOURSELF BECOMING A GREAT PHYSICIAN: There is a saying which goes this way “You will become what you think”. Always imagine and dream about what you really wanted to achieve. Write your “long term goal” in bold, about what you want to be in life and paste it on the wall in front of your bed. Keep looking at it as many a times as possible. When you tell your mind about your dream and goal, it silently keeps working towards it.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a form of chronic illness that affects the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). It is a relapsing condition which has a risk of morbidity and chances of mortality due to the complications like Barrettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s esophagus, a pre-malignant condition that may progress to esophageal cancer. ETIOLOGY: The etiology of GERD includes the acid reflux when the sphincter muscles get weak or abnormal resulting in the backflow of acidic content into the esophagus. The associated risk factors with GERD include obesity, pregnancy, connective tissue disorders, and hiatal hernia where the upper part of the stomach bulges out within the diaphragm or delayed type of stomach emptying.

Global GERD Epidemic Other factors include large meals, fatty or fried food items, smoking, alcohol, caffeine intake or medicines such as aspirin, obesity, urban environment and lower education status. EPIDEMIOLOGY AND PREVALENCE: Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a widespread condition which is seen among adults. The prevalence of GERD is increasing worldwide although there are marked differences in the reported prevalence, ranging from 2.5% to 6.6% in Eastern Asia up to 13.8% to 25.8% in North America. It has a prevalence of around 10-20% in the western world affecting around 30 million individuals in the USA alone. 60% of adults with GERD suffer from symptoms over a period of 12 months while 25-30% adults suffer from weekly symptoms and 7% adults suffer from GERD symptoms on daily basis throughout lifetime. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY: The pathophysiology of GERD involves complex changes i.e. epithelial resistance, reflux exposure along with visceral sensitivity. The

noxious gastric reflux results in esophagus injury, eliciting symptoms. This esophageal exposure occurs due to the compromised state of the anti-reflux barrier along with the reduced functioning of the esophagus to buffer and clear the reflux. The symptoms of GERD start to appear when the stomach contents run back towards the esophagus due to the weak sphincter muscles. MANAGEMENT & TREATMENT OPTIONS: Most of the individuals suffering from GERD perform self-diagnosis and selftreatment without seeking any medical attention which makes the condition worse. LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS: Lifestyle modifications should be practiced throughout the GERD treatment. Avoid foods which are acidic, avoid consuming large meals, reduce the intake of fats, avoid sleeping after eating a meal and wait for 3-4 hours before sleeping and keep your head elevated around 10-20 cms during sleep, avoid medicines which aggravate the symptoms of GERD such as beta-agonists, calcium channel blockers,

theophylline, alpha-adrenergic agonists, nitrates or sedatives. Avoid tight clothes around the waist. Try to lose some weight and stop smoking. MEDICINES: Use of antacids, H2 receptors antagonists and proton pump inhibitors helps in treating the GERD symptoms. ANTI-REFLUX SURGERY: Anti-reflux surgery is indicated in patients who prefer surgery, where medicines failed to recover the condition, complications associated with GERD, atypical symptoms or medical complications such as a hiatal hernia. ENDOSCOPIC TREATMENT: Endoscopic treatment such as radiofrequency heating over the gastroesophageal junction help in reduction of medicines, improve the quality of life, and reduce the GERD symptoms without the risks of surgery. VERDICT: GERD is a common condition which is affecting lots of individuals. Most people ignore the symptoms of GERD and treat it with self- medicines. It is important to seek medical advice if you are suffering from GERD symptoms.

Student Profile- Taylor Heverly, MD 2 What made you choose to attend Xavier? I selected Xavier University after a lot of research into my options for studying medicine. Ultimately, because I came from a large undergraduate university in the United States, I put a lot of value into the smaller class sizes offered at Xavier; something I did not experience in my past academic endeavors. This truly allows for unlimited opportunities to receive guidance and instruction on difficult subjects. I recognized early on that Xavier excels in their academics, and I believe that this is due to the amount of support professors are able to offer because of the concentrated student to teacher ratio. What is your favorite class that you have had at Xavier? I really enjoy pharmacology! Once I have studied the pathology of a disease, I am always itching to learn about the drugs available to disrupt the disease process and relieve symptoms in the patient. I love how there are multiple classes of drugs to treat one type of disease - each class acting in different areas along the disease’s pathway. Recognizing a condition is only half the battle as a physician; treating it is the ultimate goal. Are you interested in going into a specific field of medicine? If so, which one? I would be naive if I said I know EXACTLY which division of medicine I want to pursue… because I don’t have much clinical experience. I do, however, really enjoy the fast-paced, ever- changing field of emergency medicine. I’m looking forward to going into my clinical rotations with an open mind, ready to be surprised by which divisions I like and don’t like as a future provider. What advice would you give to future medical students interested in attending Xavier? I would encourage them to ask questions and investigate their options vigorously. I would also tell them to take the leap of faith. International schools are most definitely the path less traveled, but that only gives you greater and more numerous opportunities to grow. My very first semester at Xavier was far more fulfilling that I could have ever imagined. I was able to attend a clinic for an awesome experience shadowing a local physician on the island. The professional relationship I formed with her during my first semester is priceless. Experiencing the culture here in Aruba through the help of medicine is absolutely incredible. No words can describe the growth and knowledge I have gained in such a short time already. What do you like to do in your free time on the island? In spite of the fear of being too cliché, I spend a lot of my free time at the beach. The weather is consistently beautiful here so it’s hard to stay away! I also do a lot of yoga and go on runs after the sun goes down.

Student Profile- Shivangi Patel, MD 2 What made you choose to attend Xavier? I chose Xavier University School of Medicine because I felt like their mission statement on their belief of how medicine should be practiced and what qualities are important in a physician coincided with my goals. This made it feel like XUSOM was the perfect fit for me. Xavier also has a great USMLE pass rate (96%) which made the school more appealing. What inspired you to pursue a career in medicine? My inspiration to become a physician comes from a deep passion for science. Growing up science classes, were always my favorite. I wanted to become doctor since I was 15 years old. Due to this aspiration I began working in fields that helped me further my knowledge in medicine such as becoming a medical scribe, and pharmacy technician. These fields allowed me to see different aspects of medicine in the community and fueled my desire to become a physician. Are you interested in going into a specific field of medicine? If so which one? I am interested in pursuing emergency medicine in the future. During my undergraduate I worked as a medical scribe in an emergency room, my duties included charting and makes notes of the procedures done on the patient. Working there sparked a passion for me to pursue emergency medicine, the pace, the environment, and providing immediate care to patients was what I found most appealing. What are 3 interesting facts about yourself? 3 Interesting facts about me are that I am originally from the Northwest Suburb of Chicago, IL. I am ambidextrous, and I 9 am a huge baseball fan, my favorite team is the Chicago Cubs!

Faculty Highlight- Dr. Pedro Rada, Asst. Prof. of Neurology and Behavioral Science 1. Where are you from, and what educational institution(s) have you attended? I was born in Merida, Venezuela. I have a Medical degree from Universidad de los Andes, in Merida, Venezuela. I received my Postdoctoral degree from Princeton University, New Jersey, USA and I earned my PhD at Universidad Del Zulia, Maracaibo, Venezuela. 2. What other Hospitals or Medical Institutions have you worked at? Department of Physiology, School of Medicine, Universidad de los Andes, Merida, Venezuela Hospital Ruiz Penuela, San Cristobal, Venezuela. University Hospital, Merida, Venezuela 3. What sparked your interest in the field of medicine? My father was a Medical Doctor with neurology as his specialty. He became my role model as a child so I would accompany him to the hospital during hospital rounds. This created an emotional attachment within me towards a medical profession. 4. Why did you decide to enter academics and become professor? Academic institutions will last although professors disappear, however, by becoming a professor we make sure that knowledge and the institutions endure. This is done, of course, by teaching younger people who will take our place to create and transmit knowledge to the next generation. 5. What is your favorite part of helping to educate the next generation of Doctors? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rewarding to teach and help the younger doctors in a very complex career as is ours. They will bring new bright ideas but we have the experience to lead and to guide those ideas.

6. Have you conducted research in the past? How did you get involved in research? Yes, ever since in Medical School I have been involved in basic neuroscience research. Once graduated and finished my neurology specialty, I left to the Psychology Department, Princeton University as a post-doc (under Dr. Bartley G. Hoebel) for almost 5 years. Afterwards, for almost 20 years, I visited Princeton University during my vacation time. At home in Venezuela I kept doing basic research at the Laboratory of Behavioral Physiology, at the Universidad de los Andes where I would split my time with my clinical work, as a neurologist. I started doing basic research when studying my physiology course. I got really interested in neurophysiology (behavioral experiments, neurochemistry, and different animal models of diseases). 7. How has your experience been at Xavier? It has been wonderful, people are friendly, kind and very helpful. 8. What Makes Xavier stand out to you? I have been really surprised by the high level of requirement and state-of-the-art classrooms. 9. What piece of advice would you give to a student who is considering medical school? You have to be passionate with the idea of helping and healing people. It is a career that once started you will never stop studying, changes are made on a daily basis. Besides there will be many days of hard work 24/7 so you have to fall in love with our career so that you can enjoy the ride.

Alumni Highlight: Dr. Abdul Aboud Class of 2016 What factors made you choose to attend Xavier? There were several factors that ultimately made me choose Xavier as the place where I would earn my medical degree. First of all, the university is situated on the beautiful island of Aruba which is a short flight, or two, away from Toronto making it easy and convenient to fly home. Xavier offered many options for rotation. With connections to many cities around America and close to the border, I had to option of being close to home or work in a city that was convenient for me. As a recognized medical school, I also qualified the student loan program in Ontario (OSAP). The high success rate and the growing reputation of Xavier as a school that prepares you well for the USLME, clinical rotations and residency in general further solidified my decision to attend Xavier. Did you have any favorite classes or events that you had or participated in while at Xavier? I always found participation in the health fairs that XUSOM offer to residents of Aruba really exciting. It lets students apply knowledge, educate patients and establish rapport. These health fairs really helped me gain insight to how important patient education really is. It is also a skill that is worth working on early in your career as a physician. Where do you currently work and what is your position? I am currently a Family Medicine Resident at Michigan State University-Sparrow Hospital I also hold the following positions: •Family medicine residency program, Chief Resident •OB track team member •Didactics planning committee member

Xavier Times Team Student Editor: Himani Patel Faculty Editors: Dr. Prasad Vijayashankar Dr. Patricia Brumley

How do you think Xavier prepared you for your residency? Attending Xavier has opened a lot of doors for me as a student. It prepared me well for the USLME, clinical rotations and residency in general by providing me with the proper resources, tools and support.

Student Contributors:

What advice would you give to current or former Xavier students? My advice is to learn as much as you can and try to get the most experience you can. There are plenty of ways to do this from joining various clubs and groups in school and by studying hard. Creating a strong foundation for your future medical career is critical and your time in medical school is the best time to create good habits that will ensure your future success. Learn to balance your work, study time and social life while staying healthy. Create daily, weekly and monthly goals and organize your time to help you achieve them by creating a schedule for yourself. Mastering this balancing act will help you build the social and knowledge based skills to be a successful medical professional.

Faculty Contributors:

Since you have attended the previous Alumni Global Meet’s how has your experience been and what would you say to those considering attending? My experience since attending the previous Global Meet has been nothing but positive. Being connected to others who have been on the same professional path has helped me learn more about the unique challenges faced by International Medical Graduates and has helped me develop professionally. I have met so many wonderful people in the past two years that I have attended, and it has allowed me to stay connected to Xavier and be a part of the growing positive reputation of the school. As a student we did not have this type of event. To those considering attending, I would highly recommend doing so! This is the opportunity to meet people from all over the world who started at Xavier and to discuss issues, get support and guidance on topics ranging from what to focus on in medical school, what approach to take while applying for the residency process, the time lines involved and tips on obtaining high scores on the USMLE.
