toxin

The causative organism of a a necrotizing wound with a purplish. black

most likely produces an alpha toxin virulence factor
With Von Willebrand's
the only laboratory abnormality is increased bleeding time (literally you prick the patient
and see how long it takes them to stop bleeding).
von Willebrand diseaseFrequently, On Step, bleeding women have VWD. Bleeding
boys have hemophilia.
is by far the most common inherited bleeding diathesis.
On the USMLE Step exam
bleeding women have VWD. Bleeding boys have hemophilia.
Autism -like behaviour
resist making eye contact and flapping hands
Fragile X Syndrome
Autism-like behaviors (resist making eye contact and flapping hands) and large testicles
after puberty
Fragile X Syndrome caused by
trinucleotide repeat expansion
RSV is an RNA virus that enters the cell
via a fusion protein (which is the target of the prophylactic monoclonal antibody drug
Palivizumab).*
RSV is an RNA virus
causes RSV Bronchialitis
RSV is an RNA virus
has a property of mediation of cell entry via fusion protein
β2 adrenergic agonists' effects on smooth muscle
cause dilation of bronchial passages, vasodilation in muscle and liver, relaxation of
uterine muscle, and release of insulin
β2 adrenergic agonists
are primarily used to treat asthma and other pulmonary disorders, such as COPD
bilateral wheezing as a result of a bee sting
The purpose of Rhogam
, is to bind to and remove the RhD antigens so that the mother does not form an immune
response against the antigen in fetus' blood.
Rhogham administration
It's given to at-risk Rh- moms at 28 weeks and at deliver
Mom is group O and baby is RH Negative give
give Rhogham
Metformin causes
1. Hepatic glucose out put to be decreased
2. target tissue glucose uptake and utilization to be increased
Metformin(Glucophage)
decreases hepatic glucose production, decreases intestinal absorption of glucose, and
improves insulin sensitivity by increasing peripheral glucose uptake and utilization.*
colicky right flank pain that radiates to
the groin and hematuria.
Ultrasound examination of the kidneys shows right-sided hydronephrosis and a
dilated ureter.
Which of the following is most likely to be found on urinalysis?
Uric acid crystals
Neisseria gonorrhoeae gram stain of the
exudate
shows numerous neutrophils, many that contain intracellular gram-negative diplococci.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae
is able to switch out different pilin genes, and for this reason, prior infection does not
confer long-lasting immunity.
Gonorrhea
Gonorrhea can change its pilus, which is responsible for adhesion to host cells and the
main antigen to which the host mounts an immune response.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae
has the property of antigenic variation which causes reinfection
Neisseria gonorrhoeae
1.dysuria and a yellow urethral exudate. 2.Gram stain of the
exudate shows numerous neutrophils, many that contain intracellular gram-negative
diplococci.
3. had three similar
episodes of urethritis over the past 2 years.
anorexic
She
appears emaciated. She is 163 cm (5 ft 4 in) tall and weighs 40 kg (88 lb); BMI is 15 kg/
Anorexia leads to hypogonadotropic hypogonadism
as the body realizes that the possibility of nourishing a fetus is zero and gives up the
pretense
A 17-year-old girl is brought to the physician by her mother because she has not
had a menstrual period for 6 months. The
patient is unconcerned about the lack of menses. Menarche occurred at the age
of 12 years, and menses had occurred at
regular 28-day intervals until they became irregular 1 year ago. She is a member
