Q1.
In a patient with persistent epigastric pain and unintentional weight loss, which finding
most strongly suggests the need for urgent endoscopic evaluation rather than empiric
proton pump inhibitor therapy?
A. Presence of H. pylori infection on stool B. Elevated serum gastrin level
antigen test
C. Palpable epigastric mass on physical D. Positive response to previous PPI trial
examination
Correct: C - Palpable epigastric mass on physical examination
Rationale:A palpable epigastric mass raises concern for malignancy, warranting urgent
endoscopy. H. pylori infection, elevated gastrin, or prior PPI response may be managed
medically, though they still require consideration of endoscopy based on age and alarm
features.
Q2.
Which clinical scenario most accurately reflects the diagnostic criteria for Adult Still's
Disease, requiring both major criteria and at least two minor criteria?
A. Fever >39°C for 1 week, arthralgia, and B. Quotidian fever, salmon-colored rash,
elevated ferritin and negative ANA
C. Intermittent fever, sore throat, and D. Arthritis, myalgia, and elevated liver
lymphadenopathy enzymes
Correct: B - Quotidian fever, salmon-colored rash, and negative ANA
Rationale:Adult Still's disease requires quotidian fever (daily spikes), arthralgia, and a
characteristic salmon-colored rash, along with minor criteria like lymphadenopathy,
hepatosplenomegaly, and negative ANA/RF. Option B includes the hallmark triad. Other
options lack the specific fever pattern or rash.
Q3.
A patient with type 2 diabetes is started on an SGLT2 inhibitor. Which concurrent
medication requires dose adjustment or enhanced monitoring due to a pharmacodynamic
interaction?
A. Lisinopril B. Furosemide
C. Metformin D. Atorvastatin
Page 3
, Section A - Presents
Correct: B - Furosemide
Rationale:SGLT2 inhibitors cause osmotic diuresis, which can potentiate the effects of loop
diuretics like furosemide, leading to volume depletion and hypotension. Lisinopril may have
additive blood pressure lowering, but the interaction with diuretics is more pronounced.
Metformin and atorvastatin do not have significant interactions.
Q4.
In evaluating a patient with suspected giant cell arteritis, which test result is most useful
in predicting a positive temporal artery biopsy?
A. Elevated ESR and CRP B. Thrombocytosis and anemia
C. Positive ANCA D. Elevated alkaline phosphatase
Correct: A - Elevated ESR and CRP
Rationale:Elevated ESR and CRP are classic in GCA and increase the likelihood of a
positive biopsy. Thrombocytosis and anemia are nonspecific. ANCA is associated with
vasculitides other than GCA. Alkaline phosphatase elevation is not typical.
Q5.
A patient presents with acute onset vertigo, nausea, and nystagmus. Which finding
differentiates a central cause from a peripheral vestibular disorder?
A. Nystagmus that is horizontal and B. Positive head impulse test
suppressed by visual fixation
C. Direction-changing nystagmus on gaze D. Severe vertigo with autonomic symptoms
Correct: C - Direction-changing nystagmus on gaze
Rationale:Central vertigo often features direction-changing nystagmus (e.g., gaze-evoked)
and lacks fixation suppression. Peripheral vertigo typically has horizontal nystagmus
suppressed by fixation and a positive head impulse test. Autonomic symptoms are common
in peripheral causes.
Q6.
According to the USPSTF, which screening strategy is recommended for cervical cancer
in average-risk women aged 30-65?
A. Pap smear every 3 years B. HPV testing alone every 5 years
C. Co-testing every 5 years is preferred D. Screening only if HPV vaccination status
is unknown
Correct: C - Co-testing every 5 years is preferred
