QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS 100% 2024
Celiac Disease - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Lining of small intestine sees gluten as
foreign invader
* Testing is IgA-tTG, Total IgA
Sjorgerens Syndrome - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Typically affects older women or
patients with RA & Lupus
* Immune disorder with dry eyes and dry mouth
* Testing SSA+ and SSB+
Cinnamon effects - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Decreases glucose by acting like insulin at
the cellular level
* Decreases cholesterol
* Decreases blood pressure
Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Birth defect
changing normal blood flow through heart
* 3-5 year survival for 70% of infants with Stage I repair
* after age 12 months long term survival 90%
* Dx: echo * Tx: Surgery
* S/S: high HR, SOB, poor feeding, cold/blue skin, weak
* L side heart NOT fully developed (L ventricle, mitral & aortic valve, ascending aorta,
Atrial Septal Defect)
* 1st few days of life R side works to make up for L side. Patent Ductus Arteriosus &
Patent Foramen Ovale assist with flow during this time.
Parathyroid Function - CORRECT ANSWERS-Produce Parathyroid Hormone and
regulate Serum Calcium (Ca+)
, Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Progressive genetic
disorder causing child to age 10x faster than normal
* Caused by defective LMNA making protein Progerin
* S/S: short, slow growth, slow hair growth, 2 year tooth delay, wrinkles, dry skin
* Tx: NSAIDS, Statins, bone health, physical therapy
Diabetic Neuropathy Pain Meds - CORRECT ANSWERS-Cymbalta
Lyrica
Neurontin
Hydrotherapy - CORRECT ANSWERS-Helps with neurological and musculoskeletal
diseases. Especially Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Myasthenia Gravis (MG)
Decreased Lung Sounds Post Trauma (cause and tx) - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Most

penetrating chest injury)
* May do needle compression or chest tube
Rifampin - CORRECT ANSWERS-* Abx
* Affects oral birth control making it not work.
TSH Lab Levels and Indications - CORRECT ANSWERS-* TSH normal range 0.4 - 4.0
* High TSH = HYPOthyroid

T3 Lab Levels, Indications and Tx - CORRECT ANSWERS-* T3 normal range 80 - 220
* High T3 = HYPERthyroid
