ANSWERS WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS ALREADY
GRADED A+ | NEW UPDATE 2025
how does neisseria gonorrhea transmit - ANSWER transmits through contact
with infected mucous membranes
where can gonorrhea cause scarring(can cause infertility) - ANSWER urethra
epididymis
oviducts
where can gohnorrhea spread and - ANSWER lympatic system
clinical manifestations of gonorrhea - ANSWER discharge
dysuria(painful urination)
what causes dysuria from gohnorrhea - ANSWER inflammatory response
occuring in the epitheal cells-columnar epithelium
attacks the columnar epithelium of the urethrea
male symptoms of gonorrhea - ANSWER urethritis: inflammation of urethra
redness/swelling
epididymitis
symptoms more common in men
,female symptoms of gonorrhea - ANSWER untreated can cause pelvic
inflammatory disease and cause infertility
urinary tract infection
Bartholin gland inflammation
asymptomatic of very few symptoms
causes of infertility from gohnorrhea - ANSWER fibrous tissue replaces normal
tissue that has become inflammed
hardened fibrous tissue results in scarring and narrowing
chylamidia is silmilar to what STI? - ANSWER gohnorrhea
clinical manifestations of nongonococcal chlamydia - ANSWER transmission of
chylamidia during birth may result in ophthalmia neonatorum
the symptoms of chlamydia are generally less severe than gonorrhea
what is opthalmia neonatorum from chlamydia and how do we prevent it? -
ANSWER infection in the newborns eye
deliver by C-Section
what is syphylis - ANSWER systematic infection of the vascular system
consisting of 5 stages
what are the stages pf syphilis? - ANSWER 1: INTUBATION-TIME PERIOD
PATIENT HAS NO SYMPTOMS
2: PRIMARY -CHANCRE AT SITE OF INFECTION
, 3:SECONDARY-RASH AT SITE OF INFECTION
4:LATENT- GOES DORMANT
5:TERTIARY; LATE STAGE- GUMMA FORMATION CARDIOVACULAR SYPHILIS
NEURO COMPLICATIONS (28%)
what causes syphillis? - ANSWER bacteria treponema pallidum
what happens to the bacteria treponema pallidum( syphillis) in body? -
ANSWER some of it stays at the site of infection and the rest spreads to
reginional lymph nodes within hours ( mass spread)
how is the syphilis's bacteria spread throughout the body in the incubation
period? - ANSWER t. pallidum is disseminated throughout the body and can
invade and multiply in any organ system ( heart ,brain ,vascular system)
bacteria T. Pallidum(syphilis) results in changes in the vascular system can lead to
what? - ANSWER vascular necrosis of affected body system
what happens during the inflammatory response syphillis causes? - ANSWER
inflamation of the endothelial tissue causes infiltration infiltation of the
lymphocytes and plasma cells, while endothelial layers start to swell.
terminal arterioles and small arteries may become obliterated and no longer
fuctional (no oxygenated blood or circulation to tissues)
long term inflamation of vacular tissue caused by syphilis can lead to -
ANSWER formation of hardened, fibrous thickening in blood vessels,and
eventually tissue necrosis
