93
Q

What is Tetany

A disorder in which inflammation of joint occurs

96
Q

What are the different types of Arthritis

A
  1. Gouty Arthritis
  2. The Rheumatoid Arthritis
  3. Osteoarthritis
97
Q

Myasthenia Gravis is _____ disorder

A

Autoimmune

98
Q

What happens in Myasthenia Gravis

A

In Myasthenia Gravis the antibodies start attacking the acetylcholine receptors present on the sarcolemma due to which neurotransmitter do not attach to the receptors and hence does not initiate nerve transmission

99
Q

Why is Dystrophin essential

A

Dystrophin is essential for contraction of muscles

100
Q

What is Osteoporosis

A

a skeletal disorder in which bones lose its minerals and fibers from the matrix, as the bone mass decreases the bone becomes more prone to fracture

101
Q

What happens in Gout

A

Inflammation of joint occurs due to accumulation of uric acid crystals - which is due to excessive formation of uric acid

102
Q

How is Rheumatoid arthritis diagnosed

A

It is diagnosed by the presence of rheumatoid factor. In this the joint becomes immovable as the synovial membrane starts secreting an abnormal granulation tissue called as pannus

102
