A repertory built from one practitioner’s case database rather than from the literature: Massimo Mangialavori’s Suggesta, updated with modern medical language.
Its source is Mangialavori’s own database. In his 2021 introduction he describes 35 years of verbatim case material, and the product text counts more than 10,000 cases. From the cases with a long follow-up he took the symptoms that recurred across several patients and grouped them into concepts and themes; he reports about 30,000 additions at that date, set out as a full repertory.
His reason for starting was language. Repertories have grown by appending symptoms taken faithfully from the literature, which he sees as a problem of “data” that is not necessarily “information” (Massimo Mangialavori, Suggesta introduction, 2021). He also objects to nineteenth-century wording such as “anxiety of conscience” for the sense of guilt, or “scrofula” for enlarged lymph nodes, and the product text describes Suggesta as updated with modern medical language.
If you are unsure where a symptom sits in the layout, the product text points to RadarOpus word search as the way in. The Suggesta page on radaropus.com shows the repertory in screenshots.
