55
Q

This involves the study of pathogens that
cause disease

A

Etiology

56
Q

the mechanism causing the disease.
This answers the question of why a certain pathogen
causes disease in a certain individual. The sequence
of events in the response of cells or tissues to an
etiological agent, starting from the initial stimulus to
the ultimate expression of disease, without any
treatment.

Refer to the structural alterations in cells or tissues that occur following the pathogenetic mechanisms. (“pagkakaroon ng pagbabago sa size and shape ng tissues natin”)

A

Morphologic changes

66
Q

The morphologic changes in the organ influence the
normal function of the organ. By doing so, they determine
the clinical features (signs & symptoms), course and
prognosis of the disease. (“Dahil nagkaroon ng morphologic changes, for example lumaki ang thyroid, what will happen? Maeexcite yung sa pagproduce ng hormones leading to increase in oxygen level.”)

Functional derangements and clinical significance

67
Q

Postmortem examination of a human body. It
includes both gross and microscopic examinations

exfoliative cytology (urine, sputum, cervical smear) and
fine-needle aspiration.

71
Q

an unhealthy state caused by the effect of
injury

If etiology is unknown the disease is said to be
idiopathic. (“could be genetic, or caused by chemical agents
that we don’t know”)

A

Idiopathic

75
Q

If the disease is a byproduct of medical diagnosis
or treatment *iatros = for physician. (“Meaning you have
identified the final diagnosis of the patient”)

A

Iatrogenic

76

Iatros means Physician for example in the word Iatrogenic

TRUE OR FALSE

A

TRUE

77
Q

A

INCIDENCE

79
Q

A

Mortality

80
Q

  • The effects of an illness have on a person’s life
  • Concerned not only with the occurrence and incidence of the diseases but also the long-term impact of the disease
A

Morbidity

81
Q

What is being described?
