STIs, TORCHES, Childhood Rashes, HIV Flashcards
HPV
E6 (p53)-E7(Rb); DNA VIRUS
Low Risk: 6, 11; High Risk: 16, 18, (31, 33)
Most clear virus, few progress to CIN I, fewer to II/III;
Cervical, Anal, Oral, vulvular.
Conoldymoas (PAINLESS****), flat and confluent lesions. CERVICITIS WITHOUT PURULENT DISCHARGE
HSV
DNA Virus; HSV1 (oral; trigemnal gang, (Temporal lobe) Enchepalitis in newborns), HSV2 (Genital, sacral ganglia, cervicits, herpetic vsciles, dyuria).
Oral Pharyngitis, painful “shingle-like” type of outbreak in pharyx.
Tx with Zovirax.
Preg women with active lesions should get C-section; if active on nipple don’t breast feed.
Gonorrhea
G negative (neisseria), 2nd most common STD (prevelent in young adults). COINFECTION WITH CHLAMYDIA COMMON (tx for both)
Cervicits, or Pelvic Inflam Disease (PID; causes scaring of fallopian tubes which messes up ovulation=infertility), skin rash, eye vagina, anus, urethra (GREEN/Colored discharge)
CAN BE ASSYMPTOMATIC. Tx with DNA PCR (female); Males (gram stain)
Ceftriaxone (Cefalosporin) AND CHLAMYDIA TX (Doxy or Azythromycin)
Can cause Disseminated Septic Joint disease
Chlamydia Trichomatus
Gram negative obligate intracuellar bacteria (CANNOT PRODUCE OWN ATP).
Most common for women under 25******; Common co-infection with Gonorrhea
LEADING CAUSE OF PID (infertility from fallopian tube scaring causing poor ovulation).
ASSYMPTOMATIC WOMEN (cervicits, mucolpurelent discharge*), PID/ectopic pregnancies
Tx: Doxy/Azithromycin And Tx for gonorrhea (cefatriaxone)
Serotype L–Lympogranuloma Venerium: swelling of groin lymph nodes
Fitzhugh Curtis Sydnrome (adhesions between the liver and diaphragm)
HIV
ELISA (highly sensitive) followed by Western blot (highly specific, rules out false positives)
Scabbies
Parasite, like lyse; common among children can be transmitted sexually.
Gential itching RASH WITH BURROW FROM MITE***
Vesicular maculopapular rash on vuvla.
Dx via visualization of MITE
Permetrhin Cream/shampoo
Mulcosum Congentiosa
DOME SHAPED PAPULES WITH CENTRAL DIMPLE
DNA Pox. Autoinnoculation or close contact
Small painless papules (usually assymptomatic, highly contagious)
Kids/Daycares
Dx: clinical appearance then biopsy looking for viral bodies in cytoplasm
Trichomonas Vaginalis
Protazoa, Oval, flagella; TX WITH METRONAZOLE
Most curable and most common
Females with FOUL SMELLING, FROTHY green discharge, STRAWBERRY CERVIX, vulvular edema, itching/burning
Asymptomatic in men; sexual transmission
Dx: Wet mount pH of vagina (w/t 4.5, more alkaine with parasite)
TX PREG WOMEN BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE PRETERM LABOR AND DELIVERY (LOW BIRTH WEIGHT)
Syphillis
Treponmoa Pallidum: Gram Negative spirocye.
Homosexual men, HIV +, 13-35 yo
Dx: VDRL/RPR antidodies (non-trep antiody titer—false positives w/ autoimmunity); confirm with FTA (once you have infection always will be positive even after you clear it)
ALWAYS TX PREGNANT WOMEN: PENCILLIN (EVEN IF THEY HAVE ALLERGY)
PAINLESS LESION AT INFECTION (high infectioius)
Secondary: More Disseminated: Systemic, fever, maculopapular rash, palms fo sole feet (highly infectious still)
Teritary: neurosphyillus, destruction of vaso vasorum, argyl robersonian pupil (accomodate, but don’t react to light), tabes dorslais (not infectious anymore)
Blood Markers for:
Seminoma:
Yolk Sac tumor:
Choriocarcinoma:
Embyronal carcinoma:
o Seminoma: Placental alkaline phosphatase or Lactate Dehydrogenase (whats seen in lysed RBCs) “semen, milk lactate”
o Yolk Sac tumor (endodermal cyst): Alpha feto protein
o Choriocarcinoma: Beta-hCG
o Embyronal carcinoma: Alpha feto AND beta hCG
Enlarged ventricles and calcifications on CT with white-yellow lesions on retina.
Congential Toxoplasmosis:
Hydrocephalus, Intracranial Calcifications, and Chorioretinitis
Transplacental Transmission
Also can get seizures, rash, and eye movement defects and hepatosplenomegaly
Chorioretiniits, hydrocephaus and intracranial calcifications.
