AANP 2023 Final Exam Study Guide
1. Measles (Rubeola): What RNA virus is associated with cough, coryza, and conjunctivitis with
photophobia, rash that starts on head or face?
2. Ortolani maneuver: technique for checking hip integrity. unequal movement suggests the hip
is dislocated
3. varicocele: enlarged, dilated veins near the testicle
4. bladder cancer: cancerous tumor that arises from the cells lining the bladder;
major sign is hematuria, smoking or industrial chemicals can cause
5. Roseola infantum: rash starts on the trunk and goes to the extremities
Rash comes out when the fever breaks
6. endovenous laser therapy (EVLT): treatment of large varicose veins in the legs in which a laser
fiber is inserted directly into the affected vein to heat the lining within the vein, causing it to
collapse, shrink, and eventually disappear; also called endovenous laser ablation (EVLA)
7. B12 deficiency: Methylmalonic acid and Homocystein level
8. cervical dysplasia: the presence of precancerous changes in the cells that make up the inner
lining of the cervix, white, sharply demarcated lesion of cervix
9. polycythemia vera: general increase in red blood cells (erythremia), pruritis after a shower
10. L5-S1: weak plantarflexion
11. roseacea: topical metronidazole
,12. Constructive pericarditis: Pericardial knock
13. Restrictive Pericarditis: S3
14. Cluster Headache: Unilateral severe orbital, supraorbital, or temporal pain. More common in
males. Restlessness, tearing of eyes, nasal congestion, rhinnor- rhea, fullness of ear, tx-O2 100%
15. CA 125: Ovarian cancer
16. Deficiency of Niacin: Dermatitis, diarrhea, dementia
17. Pertussis treatment in children: Azithromycin
18. HLA-DQA or HLA-DQB: gene for susceptibility for DM 1
19. Glyburide: Most likely sulfa to cause hypoglycemia
20. Prehn sign: elevation of testicles "feels better, less pressure"
21. Dengue fever: Supportive Care
22. Hypoparathyroidism: Low serum mag
23. Lovastatin: First choice for children
24. Vit D dosage in older adults: 800 units/day
25. Allergy med that won't cause dizziness: Loratadine
26. Meriere's disease first line treatment: Antihistamines of Benzo (diazepam)
, 27. Rhinosinutis can cause?: Orbital cellulitis
28. Hemophilia B: Prolong PTT
29. Fibroadenoma: Most common breast mass from 25-40 years old
30. Treponema pallidum: syphilis
31. Wermer syndrome: tumors on parathyroid glands
32. Polycythemia vera: condition characterized by too many erythrocytes; blood becomes too thick
to flow easily through blood vessels, splenomegaly, pruritis after showering
33. Lyme disease: bullseye rash,
34. alopecia areata: Autoimmune disorder that causes the affected hair follicles to be mistakenly
attacked by a person's own immune system; usually begins with one or more small, round, smooth
bald patches on the frontal bone of the scalp.
35. Biguanides (Metformin): Works by suppressing hepatic gluconeogenesis and enhancing
insulin sensitivity of muscle and fat
36. Sulfonylureas: Work by stimulating insulin secretion from the pancreas
37. Hutchinson sign: zoster eruption on the tip of the nose
38. When should screening for diabetes start?: 45 years old if no symptoms present
39. Reed-Sternberg cells: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) histologic morphology
