Sketchy: Hep B Flashcards
Cue:
- blue and other cool color scheme
DNA virus
Name the single stranded DNA virus.
parvovirus
About _____% of adult HBV cases will develop into a chronic infection.
5-10%
Describe the HDV genome.
negative sense, enveloped, circular RNA virus
Newborns with HBV have a _____% chance of developing a chronic infection.
90-95%
_______ is when both HepB and HepD are transmitted simultaneously.
Co-infection
Most DNA viruses replicate in the _____.
nucleus
Polyarteritis nodosa can affect the BVs leading to the kidney, which would manifest as _____ and ______.
a reduced GFR and HTN
Cue:
- hippies wearing oversized, flowy clothing sitting in a circle, with another half circle behind them
- loose clothing = enveloped virus
- circle = circular DNA
- half circle = partially double-stranded
Cue:
- mother hippie attaching pieces of flair to the orange-clad hippie children
- orange kids = Hepatitis D
- pieces of flair = HBsAg (HBV surface antigen)
Cue:
- fortune teller reading “Reverso Transcription” book and flipping a crab tarot card on a liver-shaped rock
- “reverso transcriptum” = uses reverse transcriptase
- rock liver = cirrhosis
- crab card = CA (hepatocellular carcinoma)
Does HBV cross the placenta? Why/why not?
No- it’s too large
Cue:
- hippie van has antenna twisted into an alpha shape
- twisted antenna = gets interference = interferon alpha = INF-alpha
Where does HBV replicate?
inside AND outside of the nucleus
Cue:
- Hippie covered in henna kneeling down next to kidney-shaped bead boxes, beading red beads onto a string
- Hippie = Hep B
- henna = rash
- kneeling = pain = arthralgias
- kidney shaped boxes = kidney damage
- ***all s/s of polyarteritis nodosa
Cue:
- father hippie with 2 hippie kids dressed in orange, flowy hippie clothes wearing moon necklaces and headbands
- Hepatitis D
- 2 kids = 2 types of infection (co-infection and superinfection)
- orange = RNA virus
- flowy clothes = enveloped
- moon = negative sense
- headbands = circle = circular genome
In ______, the small aneurisms that form on the arteries is said to have a “beads on a string” appearance.
polyarteritis nodosa
Cue:
- dome-shaped Hippie pad with hippies inside and outsidee
- dome shaped = nucleus
- Hippie pad = hepadnavirus
- out and in nucleus = replication occurs both places
What does HBV cause?
- hepatitis- RUQ pain, jaundic
- polyarteritis nodosa
- hepatocellular carcinoma
Most acute cases of HBV will _____.
resolve spontaneously
What is the tx for HBV?
- lamivudine
- NRTIs (nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors)
- interferon alpha
