The two major forms of leukemia, acute and chronic, are classified by which criteria?
(Select all that apply.)
a.
Predominant cell type
b.
Rate of progression
c.
Age of individual when cells differentiation occurs
d.
Stage of cell development when malignancy first occurs
e.
Serum level of leukocytes - CORRECT ANS- -A, B
The current classification of leukemia is based on (1) the predominant cell of origin (either
myeloid or lymphoid) and (2) the rate of progression, which usually reflects the degree at
which cell differentiation was arrested when the cell became malignant (acute or chronic)
(see Figure 29-2). The remaining options are inaccurate statements regarding the
classification criteria.
What are the clinical manifestations of advanced non-African Burkitt lymphoma? (Select
all that apply.)
a.
Abdominal swelling
b.
Night sweats
,c.
Fever
d.
Weight gain
e.
Dementia - CORRECT ANS- -A, B, C
In non-African Burkitt lymphoma, the most common presentation is abdominal swelling.
More advanced disease may exhibit night sweats, fever, and weight loss. Dementia is not
associated with this disease.
Infectious mononucleosis
A. Epstein-Barr virus
B. Bence Jones protein
C. Diagnosed by the Reed-Sternberg cell
D. Diagnosed by the Philadelphia chromosome - CORRECT ANS- -A
Chronic myelogenous leukemia
A. Epstein-Barr virus
B. Bence Jones protein
C. Diagnosed by the Reed-Sternberg cell
D. Diagnosed by the Philadelphia chromosome - CORRECT ANS- -D
Multiple myeloma
A. Epstein-Barr virus
B. Bence Jones protein
C. Diagnosed by the Reed-Sternberg cell
D. Diagnosed by the Philadelphia chromosome - CORRECT ANS- -B
, Hodgkin lymphoma
A. Epstein-Barr virus
B. Bence Jones protein
C. Diagnosed by the Reed-Sternberg cell
D. Diagnosed by the Philadelphia chromosome - CORRECT ANS- -C
What is the cause of polycythemia in the fetus?
a.
Fetal hemoglobin has a greater affinity for oxygen as a result of diphosphoglycerate (DPG).
b.
The fetus has a different hemoglobin structure of two α- and two γ-chains rather than two
α-and two β-chains.
c.
Increased erythropoiesis occurs in response to the hypoxic intrauterine environment.
d.
The lungs of the fetus are undeveloped and unable to diffuse oxygen adequately to the
pulmonary capillaries. - CORRECT ANS- -C
The hypoxic intrauterine environment stimulates erythropoietin production in the fetus.
This selection is the only option that accurately explains why the fetus develops
polycythemia.
Why does fetal hemoglobin have a greater affinity for oxygen than adult hemoglobin?
a.
The fetus does not have its own oxygen supply and must rely on oxygen from the maternal
vascular system.
