NBME Sample Questions and Answers 2025
RSV is an RNA virus that enters the cell via a fusion protein
(which is the target of the prophylactic monoclonal antibody drug Palivizumab)
Gram-positive rods in a diabetic foot wound (or a World War I soldier fighting in a trench) means
means Clostridium perfringens (the causative organism of gas gangrene). Crepitus means gas in the
tissues, which is produced as a byproduct of its highly virulent alpha toxin
Crepitus
means gas in the tissues, which is produced as a byproduct of its highly virulent alpha toxin
Clostridium perfringens
(the causative organism of gas gangrene).
The causative organism of a a necrotizing wound with a purplish. black discoloration
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.
