Background: Teaching-learning of Anatomy is become challenging due to change in undergraduate medical curricula and reduction of time allotted for studying Anatomy. Moreover, students are never tried of using memory enhancing techniques like mnemonics that results better retention of recalled anatomical knowledge. But teachers’ experiences regarding different aspects of mnemonics are still sketchy. Objective: To analyze the experiences of the Bangladeshi Anatomy teachers’ in using mnemonics on teaching-learning of Anatomy. Material and Methods: A questionnaire-based survey was conducted to analyze the experiences of 63 Bangladeshi Anatomy teachers regarding different aspects of anatomical mnemonics and their suitability in teaching-learning of Anatomy. Results: Most of the surveyed teachers had experience of using anatomical mnemonics as a student (88%). Most (82%) of them used mnemonics in Regional Anatomy and also got the highest number of choices (90%) as the subdivision of Anatomy where mnemonics are likely to be effective. Most of them relate themselves with memory enhancing techniques in Anatomy. Conclusion: Most of the teachers’ used mnemonics as a student, mostly in Regional Anatomy where the use of mnemonics was likely to be more effective than any other subdivisions of Anatomy.

Using a phenomenological approach, this study aimed to gain an in-depth understanding of the lived experiences of Kashmiri women suffering from breast cancer within the context of their day-to-day lives. Snowball sampling and theoretical sampling techniques were employed for recruiting participants. Data collection was primarily based on the principles of data saturation. Data saturation occurred after 12 women with breast cancer were interviewed. Data was collected using face-to-face in-depth individual interviews. The interview guide consisted of open-ended questions. To attain the utmost variation, sumptuousness and profundity of responses, interviewer asked probing, specific, and interpreting questions during interviews. Data analysis of the transcripts was based on Graneheim and Lundman’s (Qualitative content analysis in nursing research: concepts, procedures and measures to achieve trustworthiness. Nurse Education Today 2004;24:105–12) procedures for taking out themes in qualitative data. Two main themes emerged that explained the lived experiences of women with breast cancer: (i) challenges encountered (altered body image, embarrassment, perceived worries, financial constraints, dealing with negative attitudes and stigma) and (ii) coping strategies (reliance on religion and spirituality, social support, living as usual, optimistic attitude and will to recover, and venting out). The findings revealed that breast cancer diagnosis influences women significantly as they acknowledged that it wasthe most traumatic experience of their life; however, with time, they started to accept the reality and made use of various methods to cope with their illness.
