Q

explain pathogenis of sympathy opthamia

A

Self-antigens located in immune-privileged sites can be recognized by T cells that escape negative selection in the thymus. Therefore, if these self-antigens are released into the lymphatic system as a result of trauma, T cells may recognize these self-antigens as foreign and mount a response in both the injured eye and the contralateral eye

Q

dosing how it varies with weight

A

dosing based on body weight=for narrow therapeutic index
it affects Vd/clearence
lean mass increases vd high
obesity causes disporptional increase in adipose therefore variable effect
aminoglycosides have minimal plasma protein binding and can distribute extensively into the interstitial compartment.

Q

anticholinergics, sympathomimetics, dopaminergic antagonists, diuretics how they mess up with heat regulation

A

Anticholinergics (eg, amitriptyline, scopolamine) inhibit diaphoresis, limiting the body’s primary mechanism of heat dissipation.

Sympathomimetics (eg, amphetamines, cocaine) impair peripheral vasodilation, limiting heat transfer to the skin (Choice E).

Dopaminergic antagonists (eg, chlorpromazine, haloperidol) disrupt hypothalamic thermoregulation, likely by blocking dopamine transmission in the hypothalamus (Choice C).

Diuretics (eg, furosemide) and beta blockers (eg, metoprolol) limit the cardiac response to heat stress by reducing blood volume or heart rate, thereby decreasing blood

18
Q

chagas disease explain acute vs chronic

A

acute chagas
-circulating trypomastig pts assymotmatic, nonspecific symotoms, inflmmation of eyes

chronic phase-elimination=resolution
assmotmatic chronic infection serology+ but no paraseitemia
complication of chagas-BIventricular HF+aneurysm

19
Q

does urea have a tmax

A

urea has no tmax since its passively reabsorbed

20
Q

which joint is involved in hemochromatosis

A

econd and third metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint

21
Q

osteoarthritis involves which joint

A

proximal and distal interphalangeal joints and the first carpometacarpal joint

22
Q

moa of e6 and e7 in hpv virus cancwer formation

A

Ubiquitination of the E6-p53 complex induces degradation of p53, leading to unregulated cellular growth.

23
Q

Define dermatoform herpes histo

A

microabscesses containing fibrin and neutrophils at the dermal papillae tips

24
Q

explain pathogenesis of herpes demetoformis

A

iadin is deaminated by tissue transglutaminase in a process involving formation of covalent crosslinks between the twoubsequent immune response against gliadin also targets tissue transglutaminase, leading to the production of IgA and IgG tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies.

25
Q

2 skin lesions associated with diabeties

skin manifestation of poryphria cutanea tarda

A

Necrobiosis lipoidica diabeticorum+acathosis nigricans

This condition is characterized by skin fragility and blistering lesions in sun-exposed areas

26
Q

histopath of leukocytoplastic vascukutus

A

perivascular neutrophil depris

27
Q

histopath of giant cell arteritis

A

Transmural granulomatous inflammation with fragmentation of elastic fibers is a typical finding of giant cell arteritis, seen in adults age

28
Q

explain causes and pathogeneis of Mitral VP

A

Seen in Marfans and Ehlers danlos and OI
• Proliferation of spongiosa in leaflets, fragmentation of elastin fibers with increase mucopolysaccharides and type 3 collagen deposition

29
Q

how is c1 activated which AB more effective

A

C1 must bind the Fc portions of two different antibodies at specific C1 binding sites.

30
Q

why prostate cancer goes to bone

A

pericytes and bone marrow stromal cells

osteoblast differentiation factors

31
Q

explain patho of osteomyeltis

which bone children gets affected and why

A

metaphysis of long bones due to the slower blood flow and cap fenestrae in this region

32
Q

chronic osteomyeltis

A

Persistent inflammation within the confined bony space leads to increased intramedullary pressure, which compromises blood flow and forces infectious exudate into the cortex and periosteum. Without treatment, the infection can progress to chronic suppurative osteomyelitis, in which necrotic bone (ie, sequestrum) serves as an infectious reservoir and sinus tracts develop to drain away the purulent material.

33
Q

hematogenous spread of bacteria in vertebra

A

Hematogenous osteomyelitis in adults occurs more commonly in the vertebral bodies due to increasing vertebral vascularity with age as well as epiphyseal closure during puberty

34
Q

A

urticaria, angioedema, and/or anaphylaxis immediately after food consumptio

36
Q

whats a dhole body

A

Leukocytosis with high LAP

• Dohle bodies: light blue (ribosome) basophilic peripheral granules in neutrophils

37
Q

neutrophil left shift vs hypersegmented neutrphils

A

Increased neutrophil precursors (eg, bands, metamyelocytes, myelocytes) are also typically present (referred to as “left shift”) due to early release from the marrow in response to the increased demand of the inflammatory co
