Q

Effect flulorinated inhaled anesthetics have on:

  • CV
  • REspiratory
  • Brain blood flow
  • GFR, renal vascualr resistance, renal plasma flow
  • hepatic flow
A

CV - myocardial depression (dec CO, AV/Vent proessure)
REsp - respiratory depressants (decr TV, minute ventilation, hypercapnia)
-Brain - decrease vascualr resistance and increase cerebral blood flow
-decreased hepatic blood flow

Q

Heart anatomically:

  • stab to left sternal border at 4th ICS
  • stab to back to immediate right of vertebra
  • -stab to L 4th ICS in midclavicular line (through left lung)
  • penetrating wound to 2nd ICS at LSB
A

stab to left sternal border - RV - anterior surface of the heart

stab to back to immediate right of vertebra - IVC

stab to L 4th ICS in midclavicular line - LV (left lateral aspect of heart)

stab to 2nd ICS and LSB - pulmonary trunk

Q

Long lower extremities, small firm testes, bilateral gynecomastia.

Dx?

Levels of LH, FSH, inhibin, serum testosterone, and sperm

A

Kleinfelter - 47 XXY

LH - increased (feedback from leydig damage)

FSH is increased (feedback from sertoli damage)

Inhibin decreased (sertoli damage)

Testosterone - decreased (leydig damage)

Sperm - none

Q

Each group uses what GLUT receptors and when type of kinetics?
-Skeletal muscle and adipocytes

-Brain, RBC, Liver, Kidney, B-cells

A

GLUT 4 - muscle cells and adipocytes. insulin dependent

GLUT 1, 2, 3, 5 - not insulin dependent, steady rate into cells (RBC, brain are GLUT-1 = 0 order) ( Lover, kidney, beta cells are GLUT 2 = 1st ordeR)

17
Q

first order or zero order kietics?

  1. enzyme limits velocity - constant amount
  2. substrat limits velolcity - constant percent
A
zero order (RBC, brain GLUT-1)
first order (Liver, kidney, beta0cell - GLUT-2)
18
Q

tx for narcolepsy

A

amphetamine or stimulant like modafinil

19
Q

what is a promoter region that binds transcription factors and RNA polymerase 2 during initiation of transcription?

located 25 bases upstream on coding region.

A

TATA

20
Q

ATG (Start codon) is located in what region?

A

exon 1

21
Q

cut through these for what procedure:

  1. skin
  2. superficial cervical fascia (including subcutaneous fat and platysma muscle)
  3. investing and pretracheal layers of deep cervical fascia

22
Q

Primary adrenal insufficiency. Name the serum:

  • Na levels
  • K levels
  • H levels
  • bicarbonate
  • Chloride
A
Na decreased
K increased
H increased = non-anion gap elevated metabolic acidosis
bicarbonate low
chloride increased
