Another easy way that I remember 11, 17, and 21 is to turn all of the 1's into an upward arrow. The non-1 numbers will be downward. The first number is the mineralocorticoids/BP and the second number is the sex hormones. Potassium will be opposite the BP. So for example in 21def, Mineralocorticoids and BP will be down, sex hormones up, potassium up. Simple and quick way to remember them especially on the boards. But this video is great too!
Dirty thank you so much for this. I swear to god once I become a practicing physician I will buy the costliest membership your channel has, you're a literal lifesaver man
I'm actually crying. I have agonized over this since day 1 of dedicated and am still missing questions 5 weeks later. This is literally a game changer.
There was one question about this on my biochemistry shelf exam. Thank god that right before the exam I watched this..! Thank you for all your efforts for helping medical students out! you are a gem!
Haha do you still use the 21 year old cuz he’s not salty and the 17 year old who’s salty? LEGIT USED THIS ON MY SCHOOL EXAM SO MANY TIMES. Youre the best, dirty! Taking step next Friday, wish me luck!
This video is a game changer! Thank u so much dirty! I currently on dedicated time for step1 and I have seen all ur biochem videos/question bank and I feel that I got a lot information organized, this is gold!
This is great! So much easier to remember a story than some up arrow is this or that or this letter stands for this or that. Too many of those types of mnemonics get my head all jumbled.
Thankyouuuuu so much dirty I've been learning this since couple of month but couldn't get the concept but now I'm so happy ☺ you're blessing for us literally man keep it up 💗
Oh my God! You literally saved my life when you said I don't have to memorize that crazy chart. I love your videos. Thank you so much. BTW, is there any option for someone who wants to donate one time or sometimes on your channel but not every month?
My mnemonic is very similar to M. Abdo. The way I remember it is, Aldo the CAT! Number 1 = ↑, In Example, 21 = 2↑ C A T (cortisol, Aldosterone, testosterone) 2↑ will ↑ testosterone ↑7 will increase aldosterone (salt, and the water will follow the salt) ↑ ↑ will ↑ both Aldosterone and Testosterone (aldosterone will not ↑ but deoxy-corticosterone will ↑ causing almost the same effect) C or cortisol will always be down for that reason it doesn’t have any arrow drawn. ↑Aldosterone ≈ ↑minerocorticoids = ↑salt = ↑BP and is opposite to K. / The same will happen with opposite arrows. ↑ Testosterone = ↑ sex hormone = female will have ambiguous genitalia/ males will have early puberty ↓ testosterone = ↓sex hormone = female will not develop secondary characteristics / males will have ambiguous genitalia (look like females) This works for me hopefully will work for you too!
Hello! Can you make a video with some adrenal enzyme deficiency questions only and show how to solve using your technique? Thanks for the mnemonic anyways! Keep up the good work.
Amazing! Until the question asks you which substrate isn't being converted to which product, then you kinda have to have some idea about whats going on in the table.
big thing i have trouble with is figuring out the case when the patient has mild 21 hydroxylase deficiency; do you by chance have any videos on causes for amenorrhea?
when u started this video saying i wouldn't have to memorize that chart i knew i was in love.

To add : you get WASTED on your 21st birthday. 21 is salt wasting

There was one question about this on my biochemistry shelf exam. Thank god that right before the exam I watched this..! Thank you for all your efforts for helping medical students out! you are a gem!
This is truly mind-blowing explanation. If you can explain it easy way, then you understand it.

Amazing content man

This works for me hopefully will work for you too!
Bless your soul

Amazing! Until the question asks you which substrate isn't being converted to which product, then you kinda have to have some idea about whats going on in the table.
