What is Male

200

MG most commonly affects this

What is Extraocular muscles 

300

The type of hypersensitivity when present in the tissues, the complexes can trigger an immune (inflammatory) response which causes cellular and tissue damage. SLE is an example of this. 

 

What is Immune Complex Disease
300

Two common deformities of the hands due to bony changes caused by RA

What is Swan neck and boutonnieres

The most commune type of MS (about 85%) 

What is relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS)

300

Pleural effusions, heart problems, arthritis and raynaud's phenomenon are symptoms of this

What is SLE

400

The type of hypersensitivity that does not involve antibodies but rather it is cell-mediated by T cells. Contact Dermatitis is an example of this. 

What is delayed Hypersensitivity reactions 

400

Cardiac, neurologic and ocular manifestations are example of this 

What is Extraarticular

400

Intolerance to this is a common clinical manifestation of MS. It may also cause a temporary worsening of symptoms

What is heat 

400

This treatment of GBS is shown to decrease recovery time up to 50% in some patients
