What is A 63-year-old man is in stable condition after an acute myocardial infarction when he became hypotensive for 3 hours before paramedical personnel arrived. Over the next week, the serum urea nitrogen level increases to 48 mg/dL, the serum creatinine level increases to 5 mg/dL, and the urine output decrease. He undergoes hemodialysis for the next 2 weeks and then develops marked polyuria, with urine output of 2 to 3 L/day. His renal function gradually returns to normal. Release of which of the following substances most likely participated in the elevation of BUN, creatinine, and reduced urinary output? and explain in detail?
The most common cause of acute tubular necrosis is ischemic injury. The hypotension that develops after myocardial infarction causes decreased renal blood flow, with intrarenal vasoconstriction. Sublethal endothelial injury from reduced renal blood flow leads to the increased release of the vasoconstrictor endothelin and diminished amounts of the vasodilators nitric oxide and prostaglandin. The ischemic form of acute tubular injury is often accompanied by the rupture of the basement membrane (tubulorrhexis). An initiating phase that lasts approximately 1 day is followed by a maintenance phase during which progressive oliguria and increasing blood urea nitrogen levels occur, with salt and water overload. This is followed by a recovery phase, during which there is a steady increase in urinary output and hypokalemia. Eventually, the tubular function is restored. Treatment of this acute renal failure results in the recovery of nearly all patients. Aldosterone plays a role in sodium absorption. Erythropoietin drives RBC production. Natriuretic peptide increases when there is congestive heart failure, but does not lead to renal ischemia. Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) controls free water clearance.

What is Most common cause of glomerulonephritis? and explain in detail?
Ans. (a) P.S.G.NRef: Harrison 19th ed. /1837* Acute glomerulonephritis (GN) comprises a specific set of renal diseases in which an immunologic mechanism triggers inflammation and proliferation of glomerular tissue that can result in damage to the basement membrane, mesangium, or capillary endothelium.* Acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) is the archetype of acute GN. Acute nephritic syndrome is the most serious and potentially devastating form of the various renal syndromes.* Most often, the patient is a boy, aged 2-14 years, who suddenly develops puffiness of the eyelids and facial edema in the setting of a post-streptococcal infection. The urine is dark and scanty, and the blood pressure may be elevate* Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is defined as any glomerular disease characterized by extensive crescents (usually >50%) as the principal histologic finding and by a rapid loss of renal function (usually a 50% decline in the glomerular filtration rate within 3 mo) as the clinical correlate.

What is Post-tetanic potentiation is due to and explain in detail?
Post-tetanic potentiation one form of plastic change it is the production of enhanced postsynaptic potentials in response to stimulation. This enhancement lasts up to 60s and occurs after a brief tetanizing train of stimuli in the presynaptic neuron. The tetanizing stimulation causes Ca2+ to accumulate in the presynaptic neuron to such a degree that the intracellular binding sites that keep cytoplasmic Ca2+ low are overwhelmed.

What is DNA transfer in bacteria phage is: and explain in detail?
Transformation There is direct uptake of donor DNA by the recipient cell, which may be natural or forced. Transduction - donor DNA is carried in a bacteriophage and is transferred to the recipient by the mechanism used for phage infection , two type lytic and lysogenic Lysogenic conversion, bacteriophages exhibit two types of cycles, virulent or lytic cycle where the host bacterium is lysed and the temperate or nonlytic cycle where host bacterium is unharmed. Eg diphteria Conjugation- The donor cell contributes energy and building blocks to the synthesis of a new DNA strand, which is physically transferred into the recipient cell, usually by a tube called a sex pilus. Transferable drug resistance mediated by the R factor is the most impoant method of drug resistance Mutational resistance is of great impoance in tuberculosis. If a patient is treated with streptomycin alone, initially the appear and multiply unchecked. If two or more anti-re-population by resistant mutants does not occur, as a mutant resistant to one drug will be destroyed by the other drug.

What is All of the following are definitive signs of pregnancy, EXCEPT: and explain in detail?
The abrupt cessation of menstruation in a healthy reproductive-aged woman who previously has experienced spontaneous, cyclical, predictable menses is highly suggestive of pregnancy. But there is appreciable variation in the length of the ovarian--and thus menstrual--cycle among women, and even in the same woman. Thus, amenorrhea is not a reliable indication of pregnancy until 10 days or more after expected menses onset. Ref: Cunningham F.G., Leveno K.J., Bloom S.L., Hauth J.C., Rouse D.J., Spong C.Y. (2010).

What is N K cells activity is enhanced by ? and explain in detail?
Ans. is 'c' i.e., IL-2 IL-2 acts as a growth factor for N K cells. Null cells (Large granular lymphocytes) Null cells are called so because they lack features of surface markers of both B and T lymphocytes. The account for 5 to 10% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. They are also called "large granular lymphocytes (LGL)"as they contain large azurophilic cytoplasmic granules. They express Surface receptors for the Fc poion of IgG (CD-16) NCAM-I (CD56) They proliferate in response to IL-2 Many LGL express some lineage marker paicularly CD-8, CD-2. LGLs arise in both bone marrow and thymic microenvironment. Members of this group are : 1. Antibody dependent cytotoxic cells (ADCC) ADCC possess surface receptors for the Fc pa of Ig. Capable of lysing or killing target cells sensitized with IgG. 2. Natural killer cells (NK Cells) Possess spontaneous cytotoxicity towards various target cells : - Virus infected cells Malignant cells Transplanted foreign cells Cytotoxicity is not antibody dependent or MHC restricted Activity is nonimmune as it does not require sensitization by prior antigenic contact. They have CD-56 and CD-16 on their surface IL-2 acts as a growth factor Natural killer cell activity is augmented by interferon. They release perforin which causes transmembrane pores through which TNF-f3 enters the cell and induce apoptosis. NK cells are activated to LAK cells in the presence of IL-2 Usually CD-3 negative but subset of NK cells are CD-3 positive called NK/T cells. NK cells secrete TNF-a, GMCSF, perforin, IL-4. NK cells do not kill normal cells. Why is it so? lets see : ? The NK cells express activating and inhibiting receptors. The functional activity of the NK cells is regulated by a balance between signal from these receptors. MHC class I molecules has inhibiting signal on NK cells and normal cell are not killed because inhibiting signals from normal MHC class I molecules overside activating signals. The ability of NK cells to kill target cells is inversly related to target cell expression of MHC class I molecule. If virus infection or neoplastic transformation reduces the expression of MHC I, inhibitory signals are interrupted and lysis of target cells occur. 3. Lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cells These are NK - cells treated with IL-2 Kill tumor cells more efficiently than unstimulated NK cents.

What is Spongiform degeneration of cerebral cortex occurs in - and explain in detail?
Ans. is 'a' i.e., Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease o On microscopic examination, in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease the pathognomonic finding is a spongiform transformation of the cerebral cortex and, often, deep gray matter structures (caudate, putamen); this consists of a multifocal process that results in the uneven formation of small, apparently empty, microscopic vacuoles of varying sizes within the neuropil and sometimes in the perikaryon of neurons. In advanced cases, there is severe neuronal loss, reactive gliosis, and sometimes expansion of the vacuolated areas into cystlike spaces ("status spongiosus").o Kuru plaques are extracellular deposits of aggregated abnormal protein; they are Congo red-positive as well as PAS-positive and occur in the cerebellum in cases of Gerstmann-Strdussler-Scheinker syndrome; they are present in abundance in the cerebral cortex in cases of variant CJD.o In all forms of prion disease, immunohistochemical staining demonstrates the presence of proteinase-K-resistant PrPsc in tissue.o Fatal familial insomnia does not show spongiform pathology. Instead, the most striking alteration is neuronal loss and reactive gliosis in the anterior ventral and dorsomedial nuclei of the thalamus; neuronal loss is also prominent in the inferior olivary nuclei.Some important questions on Prions diseaseo Disease confined to nervous system.o Caused by infection proteinaceous particles called prions.o Characterized by neurodegeneration and spongiform changes.o Usually have long incubation period.o Disease is usually chronic progressive disease.o The disease is invariably fatal.o The host shows no inflammatory response and no immune res pons.

What is For the immediately life-threatening injuries of the chest "Flail chest", select the proper intervention (SELECT 1 INTERVENTION) and explain in detail?
Flail chest describes the paradoxical motion of the chest wall that occurs when consecutive ribs are broken in more than one place, usually following blunt trauma to the thorax. Respiratory distress may ensue when the noncompliant flail segment interferes with generation of adequate positive and negative intrathoracic pressure needed to move air through the trachea. In addition, a blow sufficiently violent to cause a flail chest may also contuse the underlying pulmonary parenchyma, which compounds the respiratory distress. Treatment consists of stabilizing the chest wall. Although some temporary benefit may be gained by external buttressing of the chest (e.g., with sandbags, or by turning the patient onto the affected side), endotracheal intubation provides rapid and safe control of the airway, as well as stabilization of the chest internally by positive pressure ventilation.

What is Nitrogen narcosis is caused due to and explain in detail?
Nitrogen has anesthetic effect on body The precise mechanism is not well understood, but it appears to be the direct effect of gas dissolving into nerve membranes and causing temporary disruption in nerve transmissions. While the effect was first observed with air, other gases including argon, krypton and hydrogen cause very similar effects at higher than atmospheric pressure. Some of these effects may be due to antagonism at NMDAreceptors and potentiation of GABAA receptors,similar to the mechanism of nonpolar anesthetics such diethyl ether or ethylene. However, their reproduction by the very chemically inactive gas argon makes them unlikely to be a strictly chemical bonding to receptors in the usual sense of a chemical bond. An indirect physical effect - such as a change in membrane volume - would therefore be needed to affect the ligand-gated ion channels of nerve cells.Trudell et al. have suggested non-chemical binding due to the attractive van der Waals force between proteins and ine gases. Similar to the mechanism of ethanol's effect, the increase of gas dissolved in nerve cell membranes may cause altered ion permeability propeies of the neural cells' lipid bilayers. The paial pressure of a gas required to cause a measured degree of impairment correlates well with the lipid solubility of the gas: the greater the solubility, the less paial pressure is needed. An early theory, the Meyer-Oveon hypothesis, suggested that narcosis happens when the gas penetrates the lipids of the brain's nerve cells, causing direct mechanical interference with the transmission of signals from one nerve cell to another. More recently, specific types of chemically gated receptors in nerve cells have been identified as being involved with anesthesia and narcosis. However, the basic and most general underlying idea, that nerve transmission is altered in many diffuse areas of the brain as a result of gas molecules dissolved in the nerve cells' fatty membranes, remains largely unchallenged Ref guyton and hall textbook of medical physiology 12/e p1036

What is Retrograde ejaculation and explain in detail?
Retrograde ejaculation occurs when semen which would be ejaculated via the urethra is redirected to the urinary bladder. Normally, the sphincter of the bladder contracts before ejaculation, sealing the bladder which besides inhibiting the release of urine also prevents a reflux of seminal fluids into the male bladder during ejaculation. The semen is forced to exit via the urethra, the path of least resistance. When the bladder sphincter does not function properly, retrograde ejaculation may occur. It can also be induced deliberately by a male as a primitive form of male birth control (known as coitus saxonicus) or as part of certain alternative medicine practices. The retrograde-ejaculated semen, which goes into the bladder, is excreted with the next urination. Signs and symptoms Retrograde ejaculation is sometimes referred to as a "dry orgasm." Retrograde ejaculation is one symptom of male infertility. A man may notice during masturbation that despite the occurrence of orgasm, no accompanying ejaculation was produced. Another underlying cause for this phenomenon may be ejaculatory duct obstruction. During a male orgasm, sperm are released from the epididymis and travel via small tubes called the vas deferens. The sperm mix with seminal fluid in the seminal vesicles, prostate fluid from the prostate gland, and lubricants from the bulbourethral gland. During climax, muscles at the end of the bladder neck tighten to prevent retrograde flow of semen. In retrograde ejaculation, these bladder neck muscles are either very weak or the nerves controlling the muscles have been damaged. Causes A malfunctioning bladder sphincter, leading to retrograde ejaculation, may be a result either of: Autonomic nervous system dysfunction. (Dysautonomia) Operation on the prostate. It is a common complication of transurethral resection of the prostate, a procedure in which prostate tissue is removed, slice by slice, through a resectoscope passed along the urethra.It can also be caused by a retroperitoneal lymph node dissection for testicular cancer if nerve pathways to the bladder sphincter are damaged, with the resulting retrograde ejaculation being either temporary or permanent. Modern nerve-sparing techniques seek to reduce this risk; however, it may also occur as the result of Green Light Laser prostate surgery. Surgery on the bladder neck accounted for about ten percent of the cases of retrograde ejaculation or anejaculation reported in a literature review.Retrograde ejaculation is a common side effect of medications, such as tamsulosin, that are used to relax the muscles of the urinary tract, treating conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia. By relaxing the bladder sphincter muscle, the likelihood of retrograde ejaculation is increased. The medications that mostly cause it are antidepressant and antipsychotic medication, as well as NRIs such as atomoxetine; patients experiencing this phenomenon tend to quit the medications.Retrograde ejaculation can also be a complication of diabetes, especially in cases of diabetics with long term poor blood sugar control. This is due to neuropathy of the bladder sphincter. Post-pubertal males (aged 17 to 20 years) who experience repeated episodes of retrograde ejaculation are often diagnosed with urethral stricture disease shortly after the initial complaint arises. It is currently not known whether a congenital malformation of the bulbous urethra is responsible, or if pressure applied to the base of the penis or perineum immediately preceding ejaculatory inevitability may have inadvertently damaged the urethra. This damage is most often seen within 0.5 cm of the ejaculatory duct (usually distal to the duct). Conditions which can affect bladder neck muscle Medications to treat high blood pressure, benign prostate hyperplasia, mood disorders, surgery on the prostate and nerve injury (which may occur in multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury or diabetes). Diagnosis Diagnosis is usually determined after a medical professional performs a urinalysis on a urine specimen that is obtained shortly after ejaculation. In cases of retrograde ejaculation, the specimen will contain an abnormal level of sperm. Especially in case of orgasmic anejaculation, anejaculation can often be confused with retrograde ejaculation, and they share some fundamental aspects of the cause. Urinalysis is used to distinguish between them. Tests The genitals are physically examined to ensure that there are no anatomical problems. The urine will be tested for the presence of semen. If there are no sperm in the urine, it may be due to damage to the prostate as a result of surgery or prior radiation therapy. Treatments The treatment depends on the cause. Medications may work for retrograde ejaculation but only in a few cases. Surgery rarely is the first option for retrograde ejaculation and the results have proven to be inconsistent. Medications do not help retrograde ejaculation if there has been permanent damage to the prostate or the testes from radiation. Medications also do not help if prostate surgery has resulted in damage to the muscles or nerves. Medications only work if there has been mild nerve damage caused by diabetes, multiple sclerosis, or mild spinal cord injury. Medications Tricyclic antidepressants like imipramine. Antihistamines like chlorphenamine. Decongestants like ephedrine and phenylephrine.These medications tighten the bladder neck muscles and prevent semen from going backwards into the bladder. However, the medications do have many side effects and they have to be taken at least 1–2 hours prior to sexual intercourse. In many cases, the medications fail to work at the right time because most men are not able to predict when they will have an orgasm. Infertility treatments If a couple is experiencing infertility as a result of retrograde ejaculation and medications are not helping, the collection of the semen collection may undergo a special procedure. First, the patient alkalinizes his urine by intake of sodium bicarbonate (3g dissolved in water in the evening before bed, and then another dose after complete bladder emptying right before going to the laboratory)

What is A lady with 38 weeks of pregnancy is admitted in view of first episode of painless bout of bleeding yesterday. O/E: Hb 10.5g%, BP 124/78 mmHg, uterus relaxed, and head is un-engaged and floating. FHS regular. Next line of management is: and explain in detail?
This is a case of placenta pre (painless bleeding, relaxed uterus, and floating head all point to placenta pre). Since the lady is already 38 weeks, there is no need for conservative management since maturity is already achieved. The best management is a Cesarean section here If the same patient presented at less than 36 weeks, the answer would be wait and watch. If there was fetal distress at any stage after 28 weeks with APH, the answer would be LSCS If there was maternal hemodynamic instability, the answer would be blood and IV fluids, followed by emergency LSCS.

What is An 18-year-old girl presented with multiple nasal polypi in both nostrils with nasal obstruction and sinusitis. CT scan shows dense shadows in the sinuses. Histopathology did not show fungal invasion of tissues. All of the following treatments can be given except: and explain in detail?
The clinical picture and CT findings in the above patient indicate a diagnosis of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis. It is a type I hypersensitivity presenting with nasal polypi. CT findings are hyperdense material in the sinus cavity. Histologically no tissue invasion by fungus is seen though fungus can be stained and cultured from the tissues. Since tissue invasion by fungus is absent, there is no need for amphotericin B, though all other modes of treatment would be required to treat nasal polypi and type I hypersensitivity reaction.

What is A 20 year old female is diagnosed with granulosa cell tumor of the ovary. Which of the following biomarkers would be most useful for follow-up of patient? and explain in detail?
Inhibin is secreted by granulosa cells and elevated tissue and serum levels of which are useful for identifying granulosa tumor and monitoring treated patients. Mutations of the FOXL2 gene is observed in 97% of adult granulosa cell tumors. Granulosa cell tumor: Marker is inhibin. Inhibin has been studied in women with granulosa cell tumors. It is a peptide hormone produced by ovarian granulosa cells that play a role in the regulation of FSH secretion by the pituitary. It is composed of an alpha subunit and 1 of 2 beta subunits (BA or BB). Although inhibin A and inhibin B levels can both be elevated in patients with granulosa cell tumors, inhibin B level is usually elevated in a higher propoion of these tumors.

What is In patient with high clinical suspicion of pulmonary thromboembolism, best investigation would be? and explain in detail?
B i.e. CT angiography Spiral or helical chest CT scan with intravenous contrast (CT pulmonary angiography) is the principal imaging test for the diagnosis of pulmonary embolsmQ. It acquires image with < 1 m resolution and visualizes up to 6th order branches and small peripheral emboli with a resolution superior to conventional invasive contrast pulmonary angiography. It obtains excellent images of right & left ventricle and can be used for diagnosis as well as risk stratification. In patients with pulmonary embolism, RV enlargement indicates 5 times more likelihood of death within next 30 days. Inadequate breath holding can impair the image quality b/o change in aerial flow rates and motion aefact during breathing. The advent of multidetector CT (MDCT) allows examination of whole lung during single breath -hold. It is noninvasive. Ventilation - perfusion lung scanning is now second line diagnostic testa for PE, and mostly used in patients who cannot tolerate intravenous contrast. Its utility is greatest when accompanied with a normal chest x-ray implying that a ventilation - perfusion mismatch is not due to parenchymal disease. High probability (>80%) scan have 2 large segmental V-P mismatches (perfusion defects & normal ventilation) with a normal chest radiograph. And very low probability scans have micropaicles (10 - 100 1.1 m) of Tc99 micro - aggregate albumin (MAA) in patients lying supine. Ventilation scintigraphy is performed by inhalating Krypton - 81, (best), Xenon 133, Tc99 - diethylenetriamine penta acetic acid (DTPA), or technegas. Last two can't be administered during perfusion scan as both are labelled with Tc99. Eight images (anterior, posterior, obtique & lateral on both sides) are aquired. Conventional pulmonary angiography: Non invasive CT with contrast have viually replaced invasive pulmonary angiography as a diagnostic tool. However, it remains the gold standard testa.

Ans. is 'a' i.e. Posterior vitreous detachment o Epiretinal membrane is a disease of the eye in response to changes in the vitreous humor or more rarely, diabetes. It is also called macular pucker.o Sometimes, as a result of immune system response to protect the retina, cells converge in the macular area as the vitreous ages and pulls away in posterior vitreous detachment (PVD).o PVD can create minor damage to the retina, stimulating exudate, inflammation, and leucocyte response. These cells can form a transparent layer gradually and, like all scar tissue, tighten to create tension on the retina which may bulge and pucker (e.g., macular pucker), or even cause swelling or macular edema.
