L and R common iliac veins

23
Q

what happens hwen ATP binds myosin

A

release of myosin haead from binding site on actin filament

24
Q

what causes renal osteodystrophy

A

end stage renal diseaes>
hypocalcemia and decreased phosphate excretion and decreased renal synth of vit D

*hypocalcemia nad hyperPTH contribute to renal osteodystrophy

25

26
Q

How has acute RF been reduced in industrialized nations

A

tx s. pharyngitis w/ antibiotics

27
Q

acute acalculous cholecysitisis

A

acute inflammation of GB in abscence of gallstones (often occurs secondary to GB stasis and ischemia)

*commonly seen in hospitalized and very ill

28
Q

What is shown to SLOW the progression of HF and reduce all cause mortality in pts w/ CHF

A

Beta blockers

slow ventricular rate and decrease afterload

29
Q

What is specifically used to tx pts w/ HF and CHF?

A

Carvedilol

antagonizes B1/B2 and alpha 1

30
Q

loop diuretic used to tx HF assoc w/ peripheral edema

A

furosemide/ loop diuretics

31
Q

used to tx supraventricular and ventricular arrhtymias

A

amiodorone

32
Q

PDE inhibitor that increases cardiac contractility and decreases preload and afterload

A

milrinone

33
Q

improves morbidity but not mortality in pts w/ CHF

A

digoxin

34
Q

how do you dx acute cholecystiitis?

A

often cuased by gallstones obstructing cystic duct

identify signs of GB inflammation

35
Q

how do you dx acute cholecystiitis?

A

often cuased by gallstones obstructing cystic duct

identify signs of GB inflammation using US

36
Q

what do you do if US is inconclusive for acute cholecystitis?

A

NM scan can be used to detect it w/ a radiotracter. GB won’t be visulaized d/t obstruction

37
Q

what causes drug induced parkinsonism

A

D2 receptor blockers

Antipsychotics (first generation)
Antiemetics

38
Q

how do you tx drug induced parkinsonism

A

benzotropine (antimuscarnic)

amantadine (increass Da release and prevents reuptake)

39
Q

what is contraindicated for anti-psychotic induced parkinsonism b/c they can preceipitate psychosis

A

levodopa and

Da agonists

40
Q

tinnitus
vertigo
sensorineural hearing loss d/t increased volume and pressure of endolymph in hte vestibular apparatus

A

Menieres disease

41
Q

leads to formation of an annular pancreas

A

abnormal migration of ventral pancreatic bud

*encircles descending part of duodenum> lead to sxs of duodenal obstruction in neonates

42
Q

leads to formation of an annular pancreas

A

abnormal migration of ventral pancreatic bud

*encircles descending part of duodenum> lead to sxs of duodenal obstruction in neonates

43
Q

what is the pancreas derived from

A

foregut

44
Q

pathogenesis of Wilsons disease

A

excess of non-ceruloplasmin bound serum copper>

leads to injurious accumulation of this element in the liver, CNS, lenticular nucleus, cornea

45
Q

tx for Wilsons disease

A

chelation therapy w/ penicillamine to remove excess losely bound serum copper

46
Q

A

Dimercaprol

EDTA

47
Q

used to tx cirrhosis related hepatic encephalopathy

A

lactulose

48
Q

Deferoxxamine

A

49
Q

characteristics of intravascular hemolytic anemias

A

shistocytes d/t fragmented RBC>
decreased haptoglobin
increased LDH and bilirubin

50
Q

decreased haptoglobin

A

haptoglobin binds FREE Hb and is indicative of hemolysis

51
Q

gliosis

A

proliferation of astrocytes in area of neuron degeneration> leads to formation of glial scar which compensates for volum loss after neuronal death
