2. Compare the etiologies of ALS and MS?

3. Diagnose: Fixed, hard thyroid w/ fibrous histology?

Back 3

1. Th1: IL-12, Th2: IL-4

2. ALS: genetic (SOD1 mutation), MS: autoimmune reaction

3. Reidel's Thyroiditis

Front 4

1. Where do glucocorticoids act in the inflammation pathway to stop the production of prostaglandins?

2. Compare Lepromatous Leprosy with Tuberculous Leprosy with respect to CMI, #of organisms, and severity?

Back 4

1. they inhibit PLA2 making arachadonic acids

2. LL: more severe, ↓CMI/↑organisms; TL: less severe, ↓organisms/↑CMI

Front 5

1. Compare the agents responsible for Erisypelas and Impetigo?

2. Characteristics of Cri Du Chat?

3. What is an isograft?

Back 5

1. Erysipelas=s. pyogenes, Impetigo=s. aureus

2. CRI: Cardiac anomalies, Retardation, Ittybitty head

3. transplant from a genetically identical twin.

Front 6

1. What chromosome is affected in Cri Du Chat?

2. Where in the cell is collagen formed?

3. Which is caudal and which is rostral?

Back 6

1. Cri du-pu### (5 letters)

2. RER

3. Caudal: tail, Rostral: head

Front 7

1. What happens to PMNs at the site of infection: karyohexis or karyolysis? (which one is apoptotic and which is unplanned)

2. Why NK for babesia instead of CD8?

3. Difference between rales and friction rub?

Back 7

1. hexis

2. because babesia infects RBCs which don't have MHC-I

3. rub on both inspiration and expiration; rales only on inspiration

2. Why might there be mitral pathology with IHSS?

3. What is the relationship between Down Syndrome and Neurodegeneration in life?

Back 8

1. HLA-DQ3

2. Because the hypertrophic ventricular wall rubs up against the mitral valve

3. More susceptible to early Alzheimer's

Front 9

1. What is the difference between a diffusion limited gas and a perfusion limited gas and give an example of each?

2. What immune player is most responsible for both acute and for chronic allograph rejection?

3. Diagnose: ring-enhancing brain lesion with bradyzoites?

Back 9

1. diffusion limited won't have equal capillary/alveolar pressures by the time the RBC traverses the capillary (CO); perfusion limited WILL equilibrate (CO2)

2. The T-cell

3. Toxoplasmosis

1. What is a normal pulse pressure and how is it affected by 3rd degree heart block?

2. What adult brain tumor is more common that GBM and where exactly is it seen?

3. Which brain tumor incites ostial growth of the calvarium?

Back 10

1. normal is 40 mmHg; heart block will cause an increase in pulse pressure

2. metastases: found at the gray-white junction

3. meningioma

2. In diabetics, which hormone is more likely to restore a low blood glucose: epinephrine or glucagon?

Back 11

1. cryptococcus: meningoencephalitis; toxoplasmosis: necrotic parencyhmal lesions

2. epinephrine

Front 12

Back 13

1. meningioma

2. glycolysis (and maybe some pyruvate)

Front 14

1. Diagnosis and organism responsible: sandpaper rash and strawberry tongue?

2. Two southwest "pnuemonia" bugs and which one is more likely to be pneumonia*?
