autoantibodies/chromosomes etc to memorise Flashcards
vasculitis autoantibodies
ANCA (p-ANCA, c-ANCA)
blood test for ventricle failure
NT-proBNP (Natriuretic peptide) if high = heart failure
chromosome for huntingtons
4
chromosome for haemochromatosis
6
chromosome for CF
7
chromosome for wilsons
13
chromosome for alpha1 antitrypsin
14
chromosome for downs syndrome
21
chromosomes in chronic myeloid leukaemia
part of 9 breaks off and swaps with part of 22
Philadelphia chromosome assoc with?
chronic myeloid leukaemia (also 30% adults with ALL)
hypersensitivity reaction pneumonitis?
type 3
hypersensitivity reaction anaphylaxis?
type 1
hypersensitivity reaction blood transfusion
type 1
hypersensitivity reaction haemolytic anaemia
type 2
hypersensitivity reaction goodpastures
type 2
hypersensitivity reaction SLE
type 3
hypersensitivity reaction contact dermatitis
type 4
hypersensitivity reaction TB
type 4
hypersensitivity reaction RA
type 3
hypersensitivity reaction MS
type 4
hypersensitivity reaction graft rejections
type 4
mantoux test
test for previous TB infection - using tuberculin (not live tb bacteria)
interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA)
blood sample is mixed with antigens - WBC will release immunoglobulins if previous TB infection
type 1 resp fail
normal PCO2, low PO2
type 2 resp fail
high PCO2 (= low ph), low PO2 retaining CO2 so obstruction in lungs, resp acidosis
presence of increased bicarb in type 2 resp fail
means chronically high co2
gene for CF
CFTR - codes for cellular Cl- channels
gold test for CF
sweat test using electrodes - test for Cl- conc >60mmol/L
mutation in CF
F508
leads for inferior heart wall
II, III, aVF
leads for septum of heart
V1, V2
leads for anterior heart wall
V3, V4
leads for lateral wall
V5, V6, I, aVL, aVR
tachycardia = ?
> 100bpm
bradycardia = ?
<60bpm
breast cancer genes
BRCA1, BRCA2
breast cancer targeted therapy drug aims for which gene
HER2
normal vs prediab vs diab values for hba1c, fasting gluc and oral gluc tol
diab: >6.5, >126, >200
prediab: 5.7-6.4, 100-125, 140-199
norm: 5.7, <99, <139
lachman’s test
test anterior cruciate ligament in knee exam
SLE autoantibodies
anti nuclear antibodies
dsDNA
RA autoantibodies
rheumatoid factor (sensitive but not specific) anti-CCP (specific - poor prog)
