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.
Iatrogenic injury is a form of medical error. These mistakes are never intended, of course, but they are no less harmful to the patient. One example of iatrogenesis would be when a patient becomes infected because a doctor or nurse didn't wash his/her hands after touching a previous patient.
