Q

What lvl do we test for Graves?

What prevents most ppl from hyperthyroidism?

A

Test TSH, NOT t3/t4

-Wolff-Chaikoff effect reduces thryoid hormone with consumption of iodine to prevent hyperthyroidism

Q

Endometrial carcinoma
dx in postmeno women?
risk factors
types

A

endo biopsy using curettage, but hard in post meno women to sample

  • older women, v uncommon under 40
  • obesity, estrogen exposure, atypical endo hyperplasia (also DM, genes, HTN, infert etc)
  • type I and type II ECC

Q

What is grading of ECC based on?

A

Glandular component!

the more it looks like epith, the better the px

21
Q

What staging sys do we use for ECC?

A

Figo!

22
Q

Endometrial hyperplasia

A

incr gland to stroma ratio, wiht atypia has higher risk of malig (EIN assoc with endo carc)

23
Q

ENdometrial polyps
pop and main sx?
what drug are they assoc with?

A

stromal focal hyperplasia of basalis, prolif of glands etc etc

  • middle aged pt with bleeding
  • giant endometrial polyp assoc with use of TAMOX!
24
Q

Sx of itching/burning vulva with large red/oozing lesion on genital (ulcerated lesion or solid papillary mass)

A

Squamous cell carc of the vulva!

-uncommon, 2 types group I and II

25
Q

2 groups of SCC of vulva?

histo, age, risks, mut, px?

A

Group I- basaloid or Warty SCC (50s, HPV 16/8, cigs)
Group 2-Keratinizing SCC- lichen sclerosis (PARCHMENT LIKE, NO assoc with hpv/cigs, inv p53, worse px, hsito has round conc circles???)

-both inv VIN etc

26
Q

What cancer risk is assoc with lichen sclerosis?

A

atrophy/thinning/white patch of vagina, assoc with SCC risk (esp group II keratinizing)

27
Q

Paget’s disease of the vulva

A

carc with prolif of large cells with clear cyto, assoc with other carc, postmeno white women, slowly progressive

28
Q

Black woman ~30-40, pelvic pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, multiple irreg intrauterine masses, dx?

A

Leiomyoma! (uterine fibroids)

29
Q

Leiomyoma aka uterine fibroids

  • pop
  • sx?
  • assoc?
A
  • AA women 30s-40s
  • Firm irreg masses (benign smooth muscle tumors of MYOmetrium), may grow during preg and regress after meno, can infarct or cause pain, may have abd pain or uterine bleeding (but most asx)
  • lots of variants
30
Q

Leiomyosarcoma

A
  • uncommon
  • INtramural solitary hemorrhagic masses with necrosis, atypia, mitotic figures, invasion
  • poor px, high mets, usu de novo
  • older women around 50
31
Q

Stromal tumors

A

endo stromal nodules with worm like pattern

32
Q

Malig Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMMT)

A

older women in 60s with pelvic radiation, carc, polypoid appearance, poor px

33
Q

what is endometrial hyperplasia a risk factor for?

A

dev endometrial carc! (vag bleeding, adenoarc)

34
Q

what tsg is involved in type I endometriod carc?

A

PTEN!

35
Q

type I endometrial carc sx?

A

uterine bleeding from prior atypical hyperplastic lesions, 55-65 y.o, obes/htn/dm, pten, stay local before spreading to lymph

36
Q

red lesion or pink/white slightly raised lesion, infiltration by large cells with pale blue (clear) to granular cytoplasm

A

large cells with clear cyto means PAGET’S! (extramammary)

37
Q

What is associated with VIN (vulvular itraepithelial neoplasia) and what might the sx be?

A

HPV 16/18! sx may include pale flat white discolartion area, dysplastic cells occupying full squamous epith

38
Q

T2DM sx

A

fatigue, blurry vision, weight gain, acanthosis nigricans (type 1 would be ketones)
-fhx, native american (or AA/hispanic)

39
Q

Tests for t2DM

A 
dx
fasting glucose >125
A1ac (replaced oral glucose) >6.5%, reflects average over a few months (hallmark)
(fingerstick just gives us a range)
(other stuff >200)
40
Q

what risk increases when A1c is >7%?

A

microvascular complications

41
Q

for every 1 decr in A1c, hwo much does risk of microvasc compl decr?

A

25%

42
Q

But what does HbA1c decr do to cardiovascular events?

A

resutls in more!

43
Q

Prediabetes A1c value?

A

5.8-6.5%

44
Q

What happens to b-cell insulin production on DM graph?

A

as insulin res incr, B cells respond by producing more (initial curve up) but then get exhausted and prod declines, resulting in blood glucose incr

45
Q

Best tx for prediabetes?

A

lifestyle! better than metformin

46
Q

Best DM2 tx?

A

metformin plus OTHERS (combo, no mono tx! acc to OKPDS trials) maybe STATIN or ACE/ARB to prevent CV isseus

47
Q

how does metformin work

A

decreases glucose production by liver, and increases sensitivity to insulin (also decr glucose uptake and intest abs)

48
Q

Sulfonurea and statin MOA?

A

sulf- incr release of insulin into blood

statins reduce risk of CV

49
Q

TZD (eg pioglitaZONE) and GLP-1 (glucagon peptide) agonists (like liraGLUTIDE) moa

A

TZD- enhances insulin sensitivity (incr glucose uptake in skm, and decr gluconeo in liver)
GLP-1 agonist-stim insulin secretion and decr A1c levels
