Menstruation is followed by - proliferative phase
Ovulation - The release of an ovum from a mature follicle and marks the beginning of the
luteal/secretory phase of the menstrual cycle. The ovarian follicle begins its transformation into
a corpus luteum hence the name luteal phase.
Uterine prolapse - Descent of the cervix or entire uterus into the vaginal canal
testicular cancer risk factors - cryptochordism
Symptoms that require evaluation for breast cancer - Dimpling of the skin, Nipple
discharge in a nonlactating woman
Signs of premenstrual dysphoric disorder - Sex steroids also interact with the renin-
angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which explains some PMS/PMDD signs and symptoms
(e.g., water retention, bloating, weight gain).
-Emotional symptoms, à depression, anger, irritability, and fatigue, have been reported as the
most prominent and the most distressing
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding - heavy or irregular bleeding
dysfunctional uterine bleeding treatment - NSAIDs- first line of treatment (reduce
prostaglandin
prevention of prostate cancer - o Less meat (especially red meat = iron), fat (cook meat at
high temp)
o Less milk
o More fruits and veggies (tomatoes and broccoli)
o No Western diet (proinflammatory)
o Keep BMI within range
, Vitamin E (prevention = antioxidant, from egg yolk, nuts, oil), Vitamin D, green tea (antioxidant)
HPV and the development of cervical cancer - cervical cancer is almost exclusively caused
by cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection
Causes of hypoparathyroidism - most commonly caused by damage to or removal of the
parathyroid glands during thyroid surgery due to anatomic proximity of the parathyroid glands
to the thyroid
Thyroxine function - increases ATP production, increases BP/HR, stimulates bones to
make more red blood cells, brain stimulation (mood, energy)
systemic symptoms of thyroid storm - · hyperthermia; tachycardia (especially atrial
tachydysrhythmias) high-output heart failure; agitation/delirium; & nausea, vomiting, or
diarrhea, contributing to fluid volume depletion.
Dermatomes - specific areas of cutaneous (skin) innervation at these spinal cord
segments are called dermatomes
Substance release at the synapse - Neurotransmitters diffuse across the synaptic cleft
(the space between the neurons) and bind to specific receptors on postsynaptic neurons, where
they trigger an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron
Spondylolysis - can be hereditary
Location of the motor and sensory areas of the brain - - Cranial nerves control motor and
sensory function similarly to spinal nerves, but also can have specialized sensory tasks, such as
smell, taste, sight, and hearing
- PNS :divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system.
· The somatic nervous system consists of motor and sensory pathways regulating voluntary
motor control of skeletal muscle.
· The autonomic nervous system (ANS) also consists of motor and sensory components and is
involved with regulation of the body's internal environment (viscera) through involuntary
control of organ systems.
Agnosia - defect of pattern recognition—a failure to recognize the form and nature of
objects
Most common cause of meningitis - Meningococcus (Neisseria meningitidis) and
pneumococcus (Streptococcus pneumoniae) are the most common pathogens -> strep throat
