Describing oxygen dissociation curve
Left, higher affinity:
High pH, fetal hemoglobin, decrease 2,3 diphosphoglycerate, low CO2, decrease temp
Right, lower affinity.
Heart Block + Thrombocytopenia
what’s the disease
neonatal lupus
neonatal lupus rash

coarctation of the aorta
limb edema
phases in lung development
Embryonic (0-5 wk)
Psudoglandular (5-16 wk)
Canalicular (16-25 wk)
Terminal sac (Saccular) (25-36 wk)
Alveolar and Vasculature (36 wk+)
what urea cycle defect is x-linked recessive
what about the rest of them
Ornithine carbamyl transferase (also most common)
(high urine orotic aice, high glutamine/alanine. low citrulline and arginine)
the rest are mostly autosome recessive.
CAH
if 1st is 1: –> HTN
if 2nd is 1: –> become male
21- normal BP, female with ambiguous genitalia
11 beta - HTN, female with ambiguous genitalia
17 alpha- HTN, male with ambiguous genitalia
3 beta- : incomplete male, ambiguous female, normal BP, salt wasting
meoconium ileus and CF
90% patients with meconium ileus have CF.
which thyroid compound does not cross placenta
TSH does not cross
T4, T3: infant make at 14-15 wks.
TRH can cross but only in small amount
T4 convert to rT3 by placenta
respiratory quotient: low to high
low to high:
Fat, protein, carbonhydrate
RQ: CO2 produced / ox2 consumed
used in calculatin of basal metabolic rate (BMR)
Don’t confuse with energy production.
(energy production: fat is the highest)
term infant:
high methionine
positive urine nitroprusside test
homocystinuria
methionine and homocystein high.
doward dislocated lens, osteoporosis, etc.
false negative CCHD occurs when
hypoplastic left heart, coarctation to aorta, aortic stenosis.
all left sided cardiac lesions.
can have low perfusion.
vitamin E deficiency
hemolysis, anemia, reticulocytosis
Vit B12 deficient
macrocytic anemia, hyper-segmented neutrophils
Terminal Ileum: nec kid at risk
photophobia, conjunctivitis could be due to what vitamin deficiency
a number of vitamins:
A, B, D.
BPP (explain)
fetal movement: 3
breathing: > 30s, 1 breath
tone: 1 flexion/extension
Amionic fluid: 1> 2cm x 1cm
NST: reactive >/ 2 FHR, accel > 15 bpm, lasting >/ 15s
what can microarray detect
microdeletion or duplications, unbalanced translocation, aneuploides, some imprint
Tzanck test
HSV
can also varicella, CMV
Look for Tzanck cells at base of lesion
Tricuspid atresia EKG
Left superior QRS axis: I, aVF
AV cannal
Tricuspid atresia
primary respiratory alkalosis
what disease
Urea cycle defect.
central hyperventilation
(due to hyperrammonia)
Northern analysis.
Southern blot.
Western blot
Eastern blot
Northern analysis: DNA probe digest RNA
Southern blot: DNA probe digest DNA
Western: antibody probe detect protein.
Eastern: probe to find protein modification.
surfactant deficiency: most severe
surfactant: Protein B
A, B, C, D.
90% lipid and 10% protein.
also cause of lung issues:
ABCA2 transporter deficiency
newborn with:
lower eyelid colobomas
down-slanting palpebral fissues
mandibular hypoplasia
dysmporhpic ears
hearing loss
Tracher collin syndrome
zidovudine side effect in neonate
Macrocytoic anemia
6 weeks. 2mg/kg/dose
check hemolgobin at birth and 1 month.
echogenic bowel: bright bowel. (white).
what’s possible cause
CF, aneuploidy (decrease bowel motility), CMV infection, IUGR, swallowed blood. (clotts)
If bowel is whiter than iliac bone, it’s echogenic.
Prader-Willi does not have what
Hydroneprhosis
almond-shap eye, diminished DTR, hypogonadonism.
classic PKU lab:
What is high,
What is low
what enzyme deficiency is present
high phenylalanine
low Tyrosine,
high urine phenylpyruvate (from excreted phenylalanine to urine)
phenylalanine hydroxylase deficient.
resource: can use ACT sheet from metabolic disease to help form ddx.
zinc deficiency
rash
Acute zinc deficiency: dermatitis around limbs, body orifices (mouth), diarrhea, impaired immune function.
Chronic zinc deficiency: liver and kidney failure.
essential trace element, cofactor for enzyme,
support: immune function. protein metabolosim, developmen of GI track.
maternal fever
chocolate color amnionic fluid
hispanic woman
Listeria
3rd leading cause of meningitis
invade syncytitrophoblasts.
pregnant hispanic women are 24 times more likely.
placental microabscess.
gestational alloimmune liver disease (GALD)
GALD:
prior sibling with disease
maternal antibodies attack fetal hepatocytes.
extensive fibrosis, proliferation of progenitor cell tubules.
can do exchange transfusion
process starts midgestation, resulting in liver failure and/or cirrhosis
LFT normal. because hepatocytes have died. can give pregnancy women IVIG
they act as in live failure
name some x-link dominant disease
fragile x, aicardi syndrome, incontinetia pigmentosa,
Vitamin D -resistant rickets.
hypocalcemia cause what EKG abnormalities
prolonged QT
Anomalous L coronary artery to pulmonary artery
EEG finding?
Pathophysiology and why?
ALCAPA:
Q waves: I, avL, V4-V6
ST segment elevtion.
PVR low, flow reverses and now ferom left conoary art to PA –> ischemia.
Kerniterus sequence
hearing loss,
extrapyramidal syndromes (athetosis and chorea)
visual abnormalities (gaze palsies).
abnormal dentition
mom with acute fatty liver disease of pregnancy (AFLD) and HELLP syndrome. infant at risk for
LCHAD deficiency
(Long chain 3-hydroxacyl-CoA dehydrogenase) deficiency
why is G6PD elevated (false negative) in younger baby
severe hemolysis -> increase reticulocyte –> increase G6PD levels.
G6PD activity higher in younger immature RBCs even if have G6PD def.
hemolysis from G6PD is self-limited a younger TBD more resostant t to hemolysis.
