- Nonspecific symptoms resolve + Appear right upper quadrant pain + Hepatomegaly + Increase liver function tests
3) 72-96hrs:
- Return of nonspecific symptoms + Liver failure (Jaundice, coagulopathy)
4) 4 days to 2 weeks:
- Recovery of death
Whats prevalence
Number of total cases (new and old) at a specific point in time divided by total population at that time.
Whats incidence
Number of new cases in study population pero total study population at risk per given time period.
Whats Monoclonal Gammapathy
Presence in the beta-gamma region of serum proteins of an abnormal spike (M Protein) consisting of Inmunoglobulins of the same isotype produced by a single clone of abnormally proliferating lymphocyte/plasma cells.
It causes NEUROPATHY with loss of proprioception in the sixth to sevent decade of life
Symptoms of Wound Infection after cesarean delivery
More common in patients with Chorioamnionitis or Obese Women.
- Tenderness
- Erythema
- Discharge
First two days: Streptococcal
After that: Staph. or mixed
Symptoms of Endometritis
Polymicrobial infection caused by normal vaginal flora (Strep. B = Agalactiae and E.Coli)
The bacteria gain access to the upper genital tract due to vaginal examination.
- Fever >38º
- Uterine tenderness
- Purulent lochia
Main patogen of Pyelonephritis
E. Coli
Whats Placental Abruption
Premature separation of a normally implanted placenta
It causes high frequency and low amplitude contractions + bleeding.
Virus family of Hepatitis Viruses and transmission
VHA: Picornaviridae
-Oral-Fecal
VHB: Hepadnaviridae
-Sexually transmitted, vertical
VHC: Flaviviridae
-Blood transmitted
Uses of Calcitonin, mechanism and side effects
Paget disease
Hypercalcaemia
Mechanism: Osteoclast Inhibitor
Side effects: Increase risk of malignancy, dizziness
Uses of RANKL Inhibitors, mechanism and side effects
Osteoporosis
Metastatic bone disease
Antibody which blocks effects of RANKL: Inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption
It can cause OSTEONECROSIS of the jaw, atypical femoral frectures and Erysipela
Uses of Parathyroid Hormone, mechanism and side effects
Osteoporosis
Mechanism: Stimulates bone formation, increasing bone mass.
Side effects: MUSCLE CRAMPS.
Contraindication: Bone malignancy.
Uses of Biphosphonates mechanism and side effects
Osteoporosis, Paget and metastatic bone disease.
Mechanism: Inhibition of osteoclastic bone resorption.
Side effects: DYSPEPSIA, esophageal ulceration, bone PAIN, atrial fibrillation.
Cause of Cystic Fibrosis
Mutations in the gene that encodes the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductanse regulator (CFTR) protein.
That regulates ion flux at epithelial surfaces.
Breast tumor formed by glandular and cystic epithelial structures surroundes by cellular stroma.
Fibroadenoma (Benign)
Breast tumor formed by epithelial-lined spaces surroundes by cellular stroma with atypia.
Phyllodes Tumor (benign, intermediate or malignant)
Breast tumor formed by dilated ducts and acini with dense collagenous stroma.
Fibrocystic Mastopathy (Cyclic and benign)
Most common cause of mesenteric ischemia
Ischemic colitis
Characteristics of Nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy
Moderate: Microaneurysms, intraretinal (blot) hemorrhage, soft exudates, venous beading <2 quadrants
Severe: >20 hemorrhages in each of 4 quadrants or venous beading (Arrosariamiento) in 2 quadrants
Characteristics of Hypertensive Retinopathy
Grade 2: Silver wiring (arrowheads), nippin of the venules at arteriovenous crossing. And copper wiring appearance of sclerosed arterioles.
Grade 3: Silver wiring (arrowheads), nipping and flame-shaped retinal hemorrhages with soft “cotton-wool” exudates.
Fetal part that directly overlies the pelvic inlet
Presentation
Longitudinal axis of the ferus relative to the longitudinal axis of the uterus
Lie
Position of the head with regards to the fetal spine (degree of flexion/extension)
Attitude
Relationship of the fetal presenting part to the maternal pelvis
Position
Cause of Molluscum Contagiosum
Poxvirus that is transmitted by direct human to human contact or by infected fomites.
It causes papula with central umbilication.
Disease showing Thumbprinting in RX
Ischemic Colitis: Most common cause of mesentecis ischemia
Forward translation (slip) of one vertebral body on the one below
Spondylolisthesis. Due to repetitive hyperextension or sports
Patognomic sign of Scabies
Burrows (surcos)
Surgical treatment of CACU that preserves fertility
Trachelectomy
Types of Hysterectomy
Type 1 (Simple): Extrafascial
- Removes uterus and cervix
- Does not removes parametrium
Type 2 (Modified Radical Hysterectomy) -Removes uterus, cervix, proximal vagina and pamaetrial tissue
Type 3 (Radical Hysterectomy):
- All of the above + greater resection of parametrial tissue
- Ligation of uterine arteries
Agent of Tinea Capitis
