A

CD 55/59

21
Q

Tx for Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria?

A

Eculizumab - complement inhibitor

22
Q

Pathogenesis of PNH?

A

Impaired synthesis of GPI anchor for decay accelerating factor that protects RBC from complement

23
Q

Why are newborns normally asymptomatic in sickle cell?

A

They have higher hbF and lower HbS

24
Q

Why is there a crew cut skull in thalassemia major and Sickle cell?

A

Marrow expansion due to inc erythropoiesis

25
Q

What renal issue in Sickle cell and why?

A

Renal papillary necrosis - due to dec pO2 in papilla

26
Q

Why give hydroxyurea in Sickle cell?

A

Inc the amount of HbF

27
Q

Sickle cell osteomyelitis is assoc with which bact?

A

Salmonella

28
Q

What Ig is seen in Warm AIHA and Cold AIHA?

A

IgG and IgM

29
Q

Which 3 pathologies are associated with cold agglutination AIHA?

A

Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Infectious Mono, CLL

30
Q

Drug assoc with Warm AIHA?

A

methyldopa (alpha)

31
Q

Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia seen in which diseases? (6)

A

DIC, TTP, HUS, SLE, Malig HTN, HELLP

32
Q

Two diseases associated wtih macroangiopathic anemia?

A

Prosthetic heart valves and aortic stenosis

33
Q

What is mixed with patients blood in Direct coombs test?

A

anti Ig antibody

34
Q

What in patients serum will yield a positive result in indirect coombs test?

A

If serum has anti RBC surface Ig, RBC will agglutinate = pos result

35
Q

What is the difference in Labs between ACD and Hemochromatosis?

A

Both have low TIBC and and high ferritin, but Hemochromatosis has high Fe levels and also high %transferrin sat’n therefore.

36
Q

Neutropenia cut off point?

A
37
Q

Eosinophilia cut off point?

A
38
Q

Which drug causes neutrophilia, inspite of eosinopenia and lymphopenia?

A

Corticosteroids (dec activation of neutrophil adhesion molecules, dec migration out, stay in blood - However, tend to keep eosinophils in l.n and cause lymphocyte apoptosis )

39
Q

What is a Left shift?

A

shift to a more immature cell in maturation process - i.e. inc neutrophil precursors, like band cells and metamyelocytes in periph blood. In infection and inflammation, neutrophils are rapidly used up (neutrophils now, macs later) so need to make more. Produce them so fast, end up releasing more immature cells in our hurry.

40
Q

Enzymes def in lead poisoning?

A

ALA DH, and Ferro chelatase - “Dont eat DAH Fucking Lead!”

41
Q

5 Ps of Acute intermittent porphyrias?

A

Painful stomach, Port wine colored urine, Polyneuropathy, Psych issues, Precipitated by drugs, etc

42
Q

Tx for AIP? (2) Why?

A

Glucose and Heme, they inhibit ALA synthase

43
Q

Enzyme def in AIP?

A

PBG deaminase

44

45
Q

Def enzyme in Porphyria cutanea tarda?

A

UPG decarboxylase

46
Q

Which is the most common Porphyria?

A

PCTarda

47
Q

Which pathology is assoc with def in ALA synthase?

A

Sideroblastic anemia - S = synthase and sideroblastic

48
