19
Q

Postural skeletal muscles: soleus and paraspinal msucles

A

Type I SLOW twitch
red muscle fibers
derive ATP from oxidative metabolism–>
increased MITOCHONDRIA…and MYOGLOBIN

20
Q

White fibers
decreased mito/myoglobin
increased anaerobic glycolysis

WeIGHT training

A

Type 2 (any muscles that provide rapid forcefull movements are fast twitch)

21
Q
hypercalcemia
hypercalciuria
confusion
polyuria/polydipsia
anorexia
vomiting
muscle weakness
A

Excess vitamin D!!!

22
Q

Why do pts w/ granulomatous disorders (sarcoidosis, TB, HOdgkins, non hodgkins) frequently develop hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria?

A

High serum CALCITRIOL levels> increased intestinal Ca absorption/ bone resorption

23
Q

can cause culture negative endocarditis

A
Bartonella
Coxiella
myocplasma
histoplasma
chylamydia
HACEK
24
Q

RT inhibitors that DO NOT require activation via intracellular phosphorylation

A

NNRTIs
nevirapine
efavirenz
devalvirdine

25
Q

Zidovudine

Zalcitabine

A

NRTI

26
Q

Ritonavir

A

HIV protease inhibitor

27
Q

Efurvitide

A

fusion inhibiotr

28
Q

Syncope
Angina
dyspnea

systolic ejection murmur at RIGHT second intercostal space that can radiate to CAROTIDS

A

SAD= severe aortic sentosis

29
Q

MC cause of AS

A

senile calcific aortic valve degeneration

30
Q

PAH

A

secreted into nephron by PROXIMAL TUBULE but NOT resorbed by any portion of the nephron

…conc is LOWEST in the bowmans space

31
Q

SErtraline SE

A

SSRI

sexual dysfunction

32
Q

SE of TCA

A

anticholinergic effects= urinary retention

33
Q

feared SE d/t OVERDOSE w/ TCAS

A

CArdiac arrythmias

34
Q

cancer that arises 10 years after radical mastectomy w/ axiallary LN dissection for breast cancer

A

lymphangiosarcoma

35
Q

carcinoma associated w/ arsenic, thorotrast, and polyvinyl chloride

A

liver hemangiosarcoma

36
Q

Older pt

paina nd deformity in bony area and hearing loss

A

Paget’s disease

37
Q

cause of paget’s disease

A

excessive osteoclasti bone resorption> incrased bone turnover and chaotic one formation

38
Q

OG poisoning

A

OGs bind IRREVERSIBLY to cholinesterase> state of cholinergic EXCESSIVE salivation, lacrimation, diaphoresis…etc. LEAKY

tx. w/ atropine (blocks Muscarinic receptor)

39
Q

common complication of gram - sepsis, acute pancreatitis and burn injury

A

DIC

40
Q

fragmented RBC
thrombocytopenia
prolonged PT/PTT
decraesed fibrinogen, factor V and VIII

A

DIC

41
Q

Teardrop cells

A

myelofibrosis (bone marrow replaced by fibrosis and RBC must squeeze out)

42
Q

Target cells

A

HbC
Asplenia
Liver disease
Thalessemia

43
Q

pancytopenia
low reticulocyte count
absent splenomegaly

A

Aplastic anemia

44
Q

Oral administration of a drug vs. IV, sublingual, rectal

A

Oral= LARGE first pass metabolism

IV, sublingual, rectal= bypasses most metabolizing processes and allows drugs to reach systemic circulation

45
Q

signet ring carcinoma

A

one of the two major types of gastric adenocarcinoma (abundant mucin drops PUSH nucleus to ONE SIDE >signet ring profile)

IFILTRATES areas of the stomach> leather bottel stomach

46
Q

Leads to impairment of platelet function and coagulation pathway abnormalities

A

vWF def

Prolonged BT, prolonged PTT, decreased platelet agg in response to ristocetin

47
Q

ristocetin aggregation test

A

used to measure vWF dependent platelet aggregation

Ristocetin activates GP1b-X receptors on PLATELETS adn makes them available for vWF binding

If vWF is DECREASED there is POOR platelet aggregation in teh presence of ristocetin
