This screening is designed to improve quality of life with a disease and prevent complications
Tertiary Screening

This type of cell growth is characterized by the increase in the number of cells. Seen in the endometrium during the menstrual cycle

Hyperplasia

100

name the three B symptoms

Fever night sweats unintentional weight loss

Sometimes considered the 4th germ layer, these cells arise from the lateral edges of the neural plate and migrate away to form many different tissues

Neural crest cells 

200


The areas of the body most common to find the above pictured structure

GI, respiratory


Mucosa Associated Lymphatic Tissue

A 45 y/o male presents to the ED with decreased heart rate, wheezing, pinpoint pupils, diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, and incontinence. What is most likely the cause of his condition?


Bonus: Whats the treatment for this condition?

Organophosphate poisoning


Atropine, Pralidoxime 

200

These fibers convey information from the outside environment to the body via a two neuron pathway. Their ganglia are in the periphery. 

visceral sensory fibers 

200

Cannot assess temporality, causality, possible reverse causation, incidence prevalence bias are examples of limitations for what kind of study. 

cross sectional study

200

Which image shows malignant colonic mucosa 

200

Lymphatic drainage from the breast primarily goes to 

axillary lymph nodes (approx 75%)

Other part is the parasternal lymphnodes

300

This group of cells migrates second into the primitive streak and gives rise to the following structures

supportive structures such as blood, muscles, bones, heart, spleen kidney ureter 


mesoderm

300

Positive selection of T cells occurs in the ()

whereas negative selection of T cells occurs in the ()


Double Jeopardy!!!! 

1. Thymic Cortex

2. Thymic Medulla 

300

In sympathetic nervous system relies of adrenergic receptors and the neurotransmitter norepinephrine to send messages. There are two exceptions to this rule:

Adrenal glands, use acetylcholine on nicotinic receptors 

Sweat glands: use acteyl choline on M3 receptors 

300

The main difference of the Sympathetic nervous vs Parasympathetic nervous system in terms of post ganglia nerve fiber distribution

SNS: widely distributed to reach all vascular parts, including skin, organs, glands, and cardiac muscle

ANS: limited distribution to smooth muscle in organs and glands and cardiac muscle DOES Not go to skin

300

What are the characteristics of a grade C for a particular screening and give an example



Prostate cancer 

300

breast cancer-->lung, liver brain lymph nodes

Prostate cancer-->lymph nodes and bones 

Lung cancer---> bone brain lymph nodes, pleura diaphragm, 

kidney Cancer--->Lung liver bones


These represent examples of what phenomenon  

Metastatic Organotropism 

300

This condition is a form autonomic nervous system dysfunction that is characterized by an increase in HR by 30 BPM after 10 min of standing or a HR >120 

Orthostatic intolerance without orthostatic hypotension

commonly treated with high salt diet

POTS

Postural orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome


Fun Fact: COVID-19 infection was linked to potential development of POTS

400

The formation of this establishes uteroplacental circulation and occurs during the 2nd week after fertilization

trophoblastic lacunae

400

The main histological difference between pharyngeal and palatine/lingual tonsils

Pharyngeal have pseudostradified epithelium 


Palatine/lingual tonsils have non keratinized stratified squamous epithelium 



400

The contraction of this part of the bladder contributes to urinary filling and is innervated by what receptor

 alpha 1 receptors


internal urethral sphincter;

400

The structure in number 2 has cell bodies in what location of the spinal cord 

spinal cord grey matter (anterior and or lateral horn) 


anterior ventral root-motor fibers 

400

The ways to mitigate cofounding factors in the study's design process

 restriction, matching, randomization, 

400

A normal Kindey Tubule

C Abnormal Kidney tubules

This shows what kind of cellular injury

Necrosis

400

Characterized by the severe deficiency of protein, this disease is classified into three different categories. The severe form of this disease is categorized by 

Kwashiorkor, 

generalized edema or moderate edema +facial edema (moon facies)


muscle atrophy, abdominal distension

500

These defects are prevented by supplemental folic acid and are detected through 2 methods: 

Elevated alpha-fetoprotein levels measured at 16-18 weeks 

Ultrasound


Neural Tube defects 

500

What is the function of the area highlighted by E

Medulla of Lymph Node

Medullary sinuses- antigens are removed by macrophages from slow flowing lymph

Medullary cords: store b cells, plasma cells, dendritic cells and macrophages in reticular fibers

500

Your patient is given an unknown drug that causes an increase in hr, but a decrease in mean arterial pressure and diastolic pressure. This drug most likely acted on what type of receptor. 


Bonus Points: What kind of drug would cause this kind of response? 

Beta 2 receptor

Albuterol (beta 2 agonist) 

B2 causes peripheral vasodilation, BP falls, results in reflex tachycardia 

500

This is the path pre ganglionic fibers take in the viscera within the abdominopelvic cavity 

pass through the sympathetic trunk without synapsing and branch from the paravertebral ganglia and travel to the pre-vertebral ganglia and synapse there 

500

Study had 200 participants 

50 in the treatment group developed migraines

20 in the placebo group developed migraines

What is the risk difference of developing migraines?

0.15 risk difference

(50/200)-(20/200)=

0.25-0.1=0.15
