Q

Two familial issues with what in familial pancreatitis

A

SPINK1
Trypsinogen activation within the pancreas is inhibited
by pancreatic secretory inhibitor (PSTI or SPINK1)
PRSS1
Multiple isoforms of trypsinogen – missense mutation
lead to premature activation within pancreas

33
Q

AST:ALT ratio >4 highly suggestive
And low ALP

A

Wilson’s disease
Confirmed by keiser flesher ring
ATP7B (multiple mutations though)

ALP low because raised copper displaces zinc in the ALP enzyme and reduces its concentration

34
Q

Total protein raised in what??

A

Autoimmune disease

35
Q

Assoc with autoimmune hepatitis

A

UC > C

36
Q

Beading on cholangiogram suggests

A

Sclerosing cholangitis (cryptosporidium most common cause in immunosuppressive)

37
Q

AST and ALT also raised in

A

Muscle damage

ALT up for longer and longer half life but more delayed and more liver specific

38
Q

Antibiotics for campylobacter, shigella, salmonella, yersinia

A

Campylobacter- erythromycin
Salmonella - cotrimox
Shigella -
Yersinia - doxy or cotrimox

39
Q

Baby with jaundice, panniculitis (hard skin with painful lumps) or SOB exertion and lung affected

A

Signs and symptoms of alpha one antitrypsin def

40
Q

Furrowing and white specs on gastroscopy indicate

(or ringed occasionally)

A

Eosinophilic oesophagitis

41
Q

Folate absorbed in

A

Jejunum

42
Q

Fat globules vs fat crystals causes

A

Globules fat not split by lipase

Crystals not absorbed

43
Q

Leg swelling and diarrhoea (protein losing enteropathy)
Nausea, vomiting, fatty stools, and abdominal pain may also develop.
Children have delayed growth.

A

Intestinal Lymphangiectasia
Leaky lymph into small intestines
Need lymph to transport long chain Fa in micelles therefore have fat globules in stool

44
Q

Acidic stool and reducing substances present indicate what?

A

Carbohydrate malabsorption (c.diff or cryptosporidium)

45
Q

Three monosaccharides

A

Glucose, galactose, fructose

46
Q

Sucrose =

A

Glucose and fructose

47
Q

Lactose =

A

Galactose and glucose

48
Q

Starch is long chains of…

A

Maltose (Glucose and glucose)

49
Q

Glucose galactose malabsorption from

A

SGLT1 transporter

50
Q

Sequelae of cleft

A

Recurrent otitis media and hearing loss are frequent with cleft palate.
Malposition of the teeth.
Speech development

51
Q

Coeliac incidence

A

1%
T cell response to gliadin
Oats may be contaminated
Related also to Williams and tuners

52
Q

Severe fat malabsorption from birth in

A

Abetalipoproteinemia

53
Q

Low elastase in stool indicates

A

Exocrine pancreas insufficiency (most common CF)
Pearson syndrome (ePancreas-marrow failure)
Schwachman-diamond

54
Q

Recurrent pancreatitis or chronic in child think

A

Genetic: cationic trypsinogen gene (PRSS1), chymotrypsin C gene
(CTRC), CF gene (CFTR), trypsin inhibitor gene (SPINK1).

55
Q

Differential of jaundice: 4 syndromes

A

Conjugated and asymptomatic: rotor and dubin-johnson
Unconjugated and asymptomatic: 5-10% population Gilbert’s
Unconjugated and severe - type 1 Crigler-najjar (NO UGT1A1 activity) diagnosed by measuring glucuronyl transferase activity in liver from biopsy (liver normal)

56
Q

Two types autoimmune hepatitis

A

Type 1: anti smooth muscle, ANA.

to treatment and need long term immunosuppression.

A

A

58

A

Reducing substances urine and RBC galactose 1 phosphate uridyl transferase in galactosemia
Plasma a.a in tyrosinaemia and urine succinylacetone

67
Q

B12 also called

A

Cobalamin

68

Pancreatic dysfunction from what in schwachman diamond syndrome

A

Acinar cell hypoppasia

69

Systemic disease such as HUS or vasculitis autoimmune
Trauma (blunt or child abuse)
Drugs (valproate L-Aapariginase and azathioprine)

70
