Q 2. Compare umbilical hernia vs. omphalocele/gastroschisis:
- gross difference
- what embryological process is messed up
- Gross difference
- Umbilical hernia: protrusion around umbilicus, covered by skin
- Omphalocele: protrusion of guts, covered by peritoneum (NOT SKIN as umbilical hernia)
- Gastroschisis: protrusion of guts, not covered by peritoneum (NOT SKIN as umbilical hernia)
- Defective embryological process
- Umbilical hernia: incomplete closure of umbilical ring (umbilical ring is normally closed after returning)
- Omphalocele/Gastroschisis: failure of lateral fold closure
Q 2. Three diseases that are associated with umbilical hernia?
-
Beckwith-Widedemann syndrome:
- phenotypes (4)
- gene mutated/ chromosome location
-phenotypes 1. 2. 3. 4.
- gene mutated/ chromosome location:

- SCID
Pneumocysitis jivrocii is opportunistic infection: normally asymptomatic, but becomes more symptomatic in immunocompromised patients

Q 7. What immune cells respond to Candida? (local vs. systematic) What cells are involved in candidal antigen skin test detect? what immune hypersensitivity mechanism?
-
Q 7. What is Anergy?
-
Q 9. Describe pathway of catchecholamine synthesis, starting from what amino acid, each metabolite, and enzyme. what is rate limiting step?
- Rate limiting step:
Q 11. Which pathogen causes hydatid cyst? What does it transmit? Complication?
-
Q 12. Case control study: what is the theme? what are you looking for and how is it performed? What is control group?
CASE= OUTCOME
with known outcome (disease), you wanna find out the frequency of exposure. So you have two groups (with disease and without disease), and measure the frequency of exposure within each group to compare.
Thus control group should be non-disease group with or without exposure. Within this control group, presence of exposure will be measured and compared to experimental group (disease group)
