activates protein c/s

21
Q

ERS increased in

A

infxn, immune activation, neoplasm, ulcerative colitis, pregnancy

22
Q

ERS decreased in

A

polycythemia, sickle cell, CHF, microcytosis, hypofibrinogen (any perturb to blood componenets)

23
Q

Acanthocyte

A

spiny cell. liver disease (cholesterol dysregulation)

24
Q

basophilic stippling

A

thalassemia, anemia of chronic disease, lead poisoning

25
Q

bite cell

A

G6PD def

26
Q

schistocyte

A

RBC frag. DIC, TTP/HURS, mechanical destruction

27
Q

target cell

A

microcytosis, HbC, Asplenia, thalassemia

28
Q

Heinz bodies

A

G6DP, Thalassemia. oxidized iron precipates

29
Q

Howel-Jolly bodies

A

nuclear remnants in RBCs seen in asplenia and mothball ingestion

30
Q

Iron defiecency anemia findings

A

microcytosis, esophageal webs, low ferritin, high TBIC (weird)

31
Q

alpha thalassemia

A

all 4 = fatal. 3 = HbH disease. Cis = asian. trans = african

32
Q

beta thalassemia mech and population

A

splice site/promotoer mutations. in mediterranean populations

33
Q

beta thalassemia minor vs major

A

minor is heterozygote and has little effect. major is severe and needs transfusions.

34
Q

crew cut x-ray

A

ectopic blood production = severe thalassemia (beta major)

35
Q

Lead poisoning molecular

A

inhibs ferrochelatase and ALA dehydratase (heme syn)

inhibits rRNA degradation -> basophilic stippling

36
Q

Lead symptoms and treatment

A

MICROCYTIC: LEAD Sucks: Lead Lines on gingivae and long bones, Encephalopathy/Erythroyte basophilic stippling, Abdominal colic/sideroblastic Anemia, Drop wrist/foot
Treat with EDTA (1st line), Dimercaprol, SUCcimer

37
Q

Sideroblastic anemia causes

A

MICROCYTIC: Hereditary: x-linked delta-ALA synthase

Reversible : alcohol, lead, isoiazid

38
Q

Iron laden mitochondria

A

sideroblastic anemia

39
Q

siderblastic anemia blood test for iron, TIBC, and ferritin. and treatment

A

high iron, normal TIBC, high ferritin. treat with pyridoxine B6 (cofactor for delta-ALA synthase)

40
Q

megaloblastic anemia deficiencies and differences between them

A

folate def (normal mehtymalonic acid), B12 deficiency (high methylmalonic acid). cause both are needed to make dNTPs but only B12 used to convert methylmalonate-coA

41
Q

features of macrocytic anemias

A

hypersegmented neutrophiles, macrocytosis, glossitis

42
Q

sxm of B12 def

A

anemia, CNS degradation (particularly of the spinal tracts)

43
Q

etiologies of folate deficency:

A

malnutrition, alcohol, malabsorption, antifolates (methotrexate, thrimethoprim, phenytoin) or higher need (pregnancy, hemolytic anemia)

44
Q

etiologies of B12 defiencey

A

intake (vegans), malabsorb (crohns), pernicious anemia (intrinsic factor deficency) Diphyllobothrium latum (fish tapeworm), proton pump inhibitor

45
Q

orotic aciduria anemia

A

megaloblastic anemia due to inability to convert orotic acid to uridine. treat with uridine monophosphate.
