36
Q

Diffuse scleroderma findings

A

Widepsread skin involvement with rapid progression

37
Q

What is anti Scl 70

A

Anti DNA topo I

38
Q

General principle to determine which tissues repair and which regenerate

A

Tissues that are labile will regenerate (occasionally stable)

Permanent tissue will repair

39
Q

3 Granulation tissue components (red and granular in gross)

A

Fibroblasts
Proliferating blood vessels
Myofibroblasts

40
Q

Type 1 collagen is found in which 4 structures

A

Bone
Skin
Tendon
Fascia

41
Q

Type 2 collagen is found in 3 structures

A

Cartilage (hyaline included)
Vitreous body
Nucleus pulposus

42
Q

Type III collagen found in 4 structures

A

Reticulin (skin, blood vessels, uterus, granulation tissue)

43
Q

Type III collagen deficiency is found in which disease

A

Ehler Danlos (visceral rupture)

44
Q

45
Q

Function of fibroblasts in wound healing

A

Lay down type III collagen

46
Q

47
Q

A

Myofibroblasts

48
Q

Importance of Vitamin C in wound healing

A

Cofactor for hydroxylation of proline and lysine

49
Q

Vitamin C deficiency results in

A

Failure of collagen cross linking

50
Q

Keloid collagen type

A

Type III

51
Q

Steps of healing

A

Hemostasis Phase. Hemostasis is the process of the wound being closed by clotting. …
Inflammatory Phase. …
Proliferative Phase. …
Maturation Phase

52
Q

Organ findings in septic shock (or any shock)

A

Lung- ARDS- what it is composed of (hyaline membrane?)
Brain- Laminar cortical necrosis
Kidnet- tombstone appearance

53
Q

Integrin function

A

Integrins interact with the extracellular matrix proteins (e.g., fibronectin) and the epithelium

54
Q

Fibronectin function

A

Adhesive glycoproteins such as fibronectin help to maintain a cellular scaffolding for growth and repair, but they do not contract, early to develop.

55
Q

DM why delayed healing

A

glycosylation

56
Q

Starvation and Vit C deficiency- why delayed healing

A

deficiency of collagen and Failure of collagen cross-linking

57
Q

The most important cell in healing

A

macrophage

58
Q

Example of resolution

A

Lobar pneumonia

59
Q

Compensatory hyperplasia see in…

A

Liver

60
Q

Phases of healing

A

hemostasis (1 - 24h)

inflammation (1 - 5d)

proliferation (4 - 21d)

granulation tissue (newly laid collagen with neovascularization) forms
epithelialization occurs from surrounding basal keratinocytes and hair follicle basal cells
maturation (21d to up to 1 year depending of the tissue)
type III collagen remodeled to type I collagen
vessels mature and excess vasculature involutes
erythema and raised appearance of wound resolves

61
Q

Why complete regeneration occur in Hepatitis A infection

A

Because stromal tissues (ECM) are not damaged in HAV infection! only cells die…they regenerate without fibrosis!

The type and extent of tissue injury affects the subsequent repair. Complete restoration can occur only in tissues composed of stable and labile cells; even then, extensive injury will probably result in incomplete tissue regeneration and at least partial loss of function. Injury to tissues composed of permanent cells must inevitably result in scarring with, at most, attempts at functional compensation by the remaining viable elements. Such is the case with healing of a myocardial infarct.

62
Q

Wound Strength after repair

A

approximately 70% of the strength of normal skin

63
Q

Wound strength with stuture is removed (1 week)?

A

When sutures are removed, usually at 1 week, wound strength is approximately 10% of that of unwounded skin, but this increases rapidly over the next 4 weeks.
