NASA Discovers Lonely Mountain on Ceres Likely a Salty-Mud Cryovolcano. An isolated mountain near the equator of the dwarf planet Ceres resembles a volcanic dome, according to new observations from NASA's Dawn mission. Like the Lonely Mountain Erebor in J.R.R. Tolkien's mythology, Ahuna Mons on Ceres was once occupied by a dragon, but one that breathed ice, not fire.
Iatrogenesis is a common and serious hazard of hospitalization that is associated with increased patient morbidity and mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and nursing home placement, at significant cost to patients and health care organizations alike.
Iatrogenesis is derived from the Greek for originating from a physician. This therefore relates to a clinical manifestation caused by a medical professional who administers treatment to a patient, unintentionally inducing harmful effects, which medical parlance defines as side effects. Iatrogenesis can manifest as a change in a patient's condition or the appearance of a new disease. The patient can, for example, be administered anti-inflammatory drugs for joint pain, then develop medical iatrogenesis causing severe digestive disorder.
