type 2 hypersensitivity

antibodies against ACH receptors on skeletal muscles
= muscle atrophy

young women + old men

symptoms: drooping eyelids, facial paralysis, respiratory paralysis,

85
Q
  1. intracranial pressure
A

cranial cavity:
- 0-15mmHg pressure, respiration/coughing/sneezing, 80% brain tissue

causes: tumor, trauma, hemorrhage, edema

syptoms: eyes, seizure, motor function, vital signs

treatment: medication, ventricular drainage, elevation of head, hyperventilation (CO2 –> vasoconstriction)

86
Q
  1. spinal shock + spinal injuries
A

vulnerable: cervico-thoracic + thoraco-lumbar

hemorrhage + edema –> hypoxia + necrosis

neurogenic shock: above T6
–> hypotension/bradycardia

cervical cord injury: above C4
–> respiration problems

T2-T12: full upper body control
L1-L5: some leg control
S1-S5: some foot control,
bowel/bladder problems

87
Q
  1. cerebellum
A

posterior cranial fossa
superior cerebellar peduncle –> brainstem
middle cerebellar peduncle –> midbrain
inferior cerebellar peduncle –> medulla oblongata

nystagmus
cerebellar ataxia - no coordination
cerebellar tremor

88
Q
  1. thalamus + hypothalamus
A

process sensory stimuli –> body reaction

2 thalamic structures –> cerebral cortex + cerebellum + subcortical areas

thalamus:
sensory processing
thalamic pain syndrome
movement disorders

hypothalamus:
ANS, behaviour, emotions
regulate pituitary gland release hormones

neuroendocrine regulation
autonomic function
sleep
appetite, energy

89
Q
  1. brain stem
A

medulla oblongata - cardiac, respiratory, vomiting
pons - respiratory, trigeminal CN + facial CN
midbrain - eyes reflex, ears reflex, muscle rigidity, tremor

ischemic stroke
hemorrhagic stroke
traumatic brain injury
tumors
inflammation + infection - meningitis, encephalitis, MS
degenerative - Parkinson

90
Q
  1. brain/spinal-cord tumors
A

astrocytoma: glial cells, adults

ependymoma: ependymal cells, children

medulloblastoma: cerebellum, children, metastasis

extradural: bone, malignant, metastasis
intradural: benign, extramedullary/intramedullary

91
Q
  1. menopause
A

climax - transitional phase
menopause - 1 year since last menstruation, no follicles responding to FSH/LH

perimenopause:
- some years before
- without ovulation
- less estrogen/progesterone
- higher FSH + less estrogen –> hot flashes + night sweats
- less estrogen = cardiovascular disease + osteoporosis
- mood swings

92
Q
  1. male reproductive
A

hypogonadism - testosterone

primary:
- klinefelter
- cryptorchidism

secondary:
- pituitary disorders
- obesity

fetal life, puberty, adulthood

93
Q
  1. joints
A

osteoarthritis:
- synovial joints
- inflammation + pain
- risk: age, overweight

rheumatoid arthritis:
- chronic inflammation
- T-cells + cytokines –> scar tissue in synovial membrane –> bone/joints destroyed

gout:
- uric acid in joints, big toe
- symptoms: pain, swelling

94
Q
  1. dermatology
A

acne vulgaris: sebaceous glands

eczema: hypersensitivity, atopic/allergic/seborrheic

psoriasis: thick scalp, sunlight/steroid cream

benign lesions: squamous cell papilloma, seborrheic keratosis

pre-malignant: xeroderma pigmentosum, solar keratosis, intraepidermal carcinoma

malignant: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma

95
Q
  1. SIRS
A

sepsis:
- response to infection
- septic shock
- can damage organ systems

treatment: antibiotics + fluids

SIRS criteria (min. 2 of these):
- temp lower than 36, above 38
- HR over 90
- RR over 20
- WBC lower than 4, above 12g/L
- glucose above 7,7mmol/L

severe sepsis:
- between sepsis and septic shock with 1 criteria of hypoperfusion

criteria of hypoperfusion:
- consciousness
- hypoxemia less than 10kPa
- lactate above 2,5mmol/L
- oliguria less than 30ml/h

septic shock mortality - 40%

sepsis –> less blood flow + blood clot

SOFA score: 6 organ failure scores
- respiratory + neurological + cardiovascular + coagulation + hepatic + renal
