Background: The case histories in the writings of the Greco-Roman physician Galen of Pergamum have so far been interpreted primarily in literary and socio-historic terms. Analysis focused on the medical aspects is still incomplete.
Question: Which competence for the treatment of inflammatory diseases of the musculoskeletal system do the Galenic case reports communicate?
Study Design And Research Methods: The 358 Galenic case histories were studied for anamnestic, clinical, therapeutic, and epidemiological statements on inflammatory diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

Objective: This study aimed to examine how adages, aphorisms, and proverbs arise in psychiatric management and psychotherapy and how they might be used to assist assessment and treatment.
Methods: A selective narrative literature review was conducted to supplement clinical observations and case vignettes.
Results: Adages appear to act as heuristic cognitive structures that serve as shortcuts for assessing situations, educating, persuading, aiding emotional self-regulation, and influencing courses of action.
