Diseases Database facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

The Diseases Database is a free website that works like a huge online library of health information. It helps you understand how different health problems, their signs and symptoms (what you feel or notice), and medicines are all connected.

This helpful database is managed by a small company called Medical Object Oriented Software Enterprises Ltd, located in London, UK.

The main goal of the website is to help people learn more about health. It's especially useful for doctors, other healthcare workers, and students who are studying medicine. The person in charge of editing the site is Malcolm H Duncan, who is a qualified medical doctor from the UK.

How the Database is Organized

The Diseases Database is built around many different health topics. These topics are called 'items'. They include things like various diseases, different types of medicines, common symptoms, physical signs a doctor might notice, and even unusual results from lab tests.

There are about 8,000 of these 'items' in the database. This means there's a lot of information to explore!
