MS and integumentary Flashcards
Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Low ionized Ca—
PTH—
increase ca but increasing osteoclast
Calcitonin
regulate serum ca levels
decrease osteoclast activity
lower serum ca level
VIT D
vit D2 and 3 must be converted to different form by:
liver
kindeys
estrogen
reduces:
cell number
activity of osteoclase
compartment syndrome
decrease in size or increase in volume within muscle compartment
leads to injury and potential death of muscle and nerve cells
osteomyelitis
bone infection
osteonecrosis
death of a segment of bone due to:
ischemia
*administration of corticosteroids, bisphosphanates (SE cause necrosis)
bone tumors
benign most common
malignant
metabolic bone disease
osteoporosis
loss of bone mineralization
lead to increased porosity
loss of concellous (inner, spongy) bone and thinning of cortical (outer, compact) bone
metabolic bone disease
osteoporosis
protective factor
preceded
classes
protective factor is weight bearing exercise
preceded by osteopenia (low bone mass than expected)
classes of presentation of osteoporosis:
postmenopausal
age-related
secondary (due to other issues)
premature osteoporosis (young female athletes)
metabolic bone disease
osteoporosis
clinical manifestations
fx hip, radius
compression fx of vetebrae
back hump
decrease height
metabolic bone disease
osteomalacia and rickets
inadequare mineralization of bone (softening)
does not involve actual loss of bone mass only softening
pathogenesis:
dietary absorption def. (ca, vitd, phos)
resistance to action of vit d
renal losses of phos
called rickets if childhood onset (adult=osteomalacia)
rheumatic disorders
disorder of joints
arthritis is inflammation of joints
case models:
systemic lupus erythematosis
rheumatoid arthritis
osteoarthritis
gout
rheumatic disorders
systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE)
type 3 immune hypersensitivity response:
autoimmune complexes traveling blood cause inflammatory changes in parts of body:
*joints, muscles, bone, blood
*skin (butterfly rash)
*glomerulus of kidneys (damaged)
*lungs
*heart
damage to glmerulus from immune complexes lead to CKD
rheumatic disorders
rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
systemic inflmmatory disorder:
autoantibodies attack joint tissue
rheumatoid factor: autoantibody identified in blood
patho: destruction to joint
pannus: abnormal granulation tissue that form in joints
rheumatoid nodulaes
also affects: lung, heart, kidneys, BV, eyes (inflammaition)
rheumatic disorders
osteoarthritis
degenerative joint disease
associated with wear and tear over time
inflammation and pain is localized
tx: surgical joint replacement
rheumatic disorders
Gout
increased blood levels of uric acid with formation of uric acid crystals that deposit in the joints:
tx: drugs that lower uric acid levels
nodules called: tophi
inflammtory disorders of the skin
Acute inflammation
atopic contact dermatitis:
alletgic reaction
urticaria (hives):
acute immune reaction
(1st exposure nothing but 2nd we get a reaction)
inflammtory disorders of the skin
chronic inflmmatory processes
acne vulgaris
rosacea: red rosey nose
psoriasis (plaque on elbow)
eczema
skin cancer
basal cell carcinoma:
most common
slow growing
squamous cell carcinoma:
2nd most common
sun exposure increased risk
can inter lymph and metastasize
malignant melanome:
most life threatening
melanocytes form
rapidly progressive (aysmetry, irregular borders, different colors, diameter change)
