Chronic Melogenous Leukemia |
|
|
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia most commin in adults
mostly > 40 y/o b cell origin + suppression of AB production |
CLL
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia |
|
|
Mostly 65+ older
idiopathic prior chemo or radiation exposure to chemicals progresses slowly often asxs fatigue, anorexia, splenomegaly, night sweats, low grade fever, anemia sxs |
AML
Acute Melogenous Leukemia |
|
|
what regulates body temp
|
hypothalamus
|
|
|
TRH -> TSH-> Thyroxine-> epinephrine (increase metabolism) -> vasoconstriction ->increase in glycolysis -> increase metabolic rates
|
chemical rxns of metabolism
|
|
|
benefits to fever
|
increase antibody, inferferon, wbc production/mobilization, increase lymphocycte recruitment to nodes, sequestered Fe, increase temp directly inhibits pathogen replication
|
|
|
ALL Acute lymphocytic leukemia
|
lowered RBCs, WBCs + platelets anemia, neutropenia, DIC + thrombocytopenia, increase upper quad fullness, night sweats, bone pain, lymphadenopathy
