The basal body temperature shift after ovulation is due to
|
Your body temperature dips a bit just before your ovary releases an egg. Then, 24 hours after the egg's release, your temperature rises and stays up for several days. Before ovulation, a woman's BBT averages between36.1degC (97degF) and36.4degC (97.5degF). After ovulation, it rises to36.4degC (97.6degF) to37degC (98.6degF).

Ideal investigation for fistula-in-ano is
|
CLINICAL ASSESSMENT A full medical history and Proctosigmoidoscopy are necessary to gain information about sphincter strength and to exclude associated conditions. Full examination under anesthesia should be repeated before surgical intervention. Diluted hydrogen peroxide, instilled the external opening, is a very useful way of demonstrating the site of the internal opening MRI is the 'gold standard' for fistula imaging Usually reserved for difficult recurrent cases Advantage of MRI: Its ability to demonstrate secondary extensions Fistulography and CT : Useful techniques if an extrasphincteric fistula is suspected. TREATMENT Treatment options: Fistulotomy, Fistulectomy, Setons, Advancement flaps and Glues Laying open is the surest method of eradication, but sphincter division may result in incontinence

Which is not a feature of Netherton Syndrome?
|
Ans. A. Autosomal dominanta. Netherton Syndrome: This autosomal recessive disorder is characterized by ichthyosis (usually ichthyosis linearis circumflexa but occasionally the lamellar or congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma types), trichorrhexis invaginata and other hair shaft anomalies, and atopic diathesis.b. Mutations in the gene SPINK 5, which encodes a serine protease inhibitor, have been identified in patients with Netherton syndrome.c. The ichthyosis is present in the 1st 10 days of life and may be especially marked around the eyes, mouth, and perineal area. The erythroderma is often intensified after infection.d. Infants may suffer from failure to thrive, recurrent bacterial and candidal infections, elevated serum IgE levels, and marked hypernatremic dehydration.e. The most frequent allergic manifestations are urticaria, angioedema, atopic dermatitis, and asthma. Scalp hair is sparse and short and fractures easily eyebrows, eyelashes, and body hair are also abnormal.f. The characteristic hair abnormality can be identified with light microscopy. In the new born, it may best be identified in eye brow hair.

Clinical features of Thromboangiitis obliterans includes a triad of claudication of the affected extremity, Raynaud's phenomenon, and migratory superficial vein thrombophlebitis. The physical examination shows normal brachial and popliteal pulses, but reduced or absent radial, ulnar, and/or tibial pulses. Claudication usually is confined to the calves and feet or the forearms and hands as it primarily affects distal vessels. In the presence of severe digital ischemia, trophic nail changes, painful ulcerations, and gangrene develop at the tips of the fingers or toes.

Ans. (b) Serous otitis media in childrenRef: Dhingra 5th edp. 71-72* Serous otitis media is also known as Glue ear.* It is an insidious condition characterized by accumulation of non-purulent effusion in the middle ear cleft.* One of common causes of serous otitis media (Glue ear) in children is blockage of Eustachian tube secondary to adenoid hyperplasia.* Therefore, the treatment aims at removal of adenoid (adenoidectomy) and drainage of middle ear by grommet.# Grommet is a small tube inserted in tympanic membrane to drain the middle ear.* Serous otitis media in adults should arouse suspicion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and hence the treatment aims at removal of carcinoma* Adenoiditis is an acute condition and requires treatment conservatively.

A Toddler has few drops of blood coming out of rectum. Probable diagnosis is
|
Ans is 'a' i.e. Juvenile Rectal Polyp "The aetiology and management of rectal bleeding depends on the age of the child, the type and quantity of bleeding and the associated symptoms. Unlike adults, malignancy is exceptionally rare. In infants, an anal fissure, necrotizing enterocolitis, intussusception and allergic enterocolitis are possible causes. In older children, more common causes include an anal fissure, a juvenile polyp and certain gastroenteritides (e.g. Campylobacter infection); Meckel's diverticulum, duplication cyst and inflammatory bowel disease are less common. Bailey and LoveJuvenile polyps are the most common type of childhood polyp, occurring in up to 1% of preschool children. They are usually solitary polyps found in the rectum which most commonly present with rectal bleeding.These are hamartomatous polyps, which are usually pedunculated but can be sessile. "The typical child with a juvenile polyp is 4 to 6 years of age, presents with intermittent painless rectal bleeding with bowel movements. Rudolph's PediatricsJuvenile polyps are usually are not premalignant.Because the gross appearance of these polyps is identical to adenomatous polyps, these lesions should also be treated by polypectomy.Juvenile polyposis is a term used when more than 5 to 10 juvenile polyps develop.Juvenile polyposis coli applies if the polyps are limited to the colon, whereas generalized juvenile polyposis describes the presence of polyps throughout the GI tract. Both have a significant malignant potential.Other mentioned options are rare in children.Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) patients present in Td to 3rd decade.Rectal ulcer (solitary rectal ulcer) is commonly seen in 20 to 40 yrs age group.Piles are rare in children.

|
Remote afterloading is done in Brachytherapy in which the system automatically administer a radioisotope directly to cancerous tissue, thereby minimizing the radiation dose to surrounding tissue and eliminating the radiation exposure to hospital staff. In brachytherapy, a radioisotope is placed onto or inside the patient. The source of radiation is put inside a sealed capsule ,which prevents it from moving or dissolving in body fluids but allows the emission of ionising radiation to the surrounding tissues.

A person presented with a tumour at the base of the tongue. What will be the treatment of choice
|
TONGUE CANCER Management of the neck in early stage oral cavity cancer, including the oral tongue, has been discussed above; however, consideration for elective management of the node-negative neck should be made in all instances. When performing surgical excision of the primary tumour, a 1 cm margin in all planes should be attempted in seeking a complete excision with pathologically clear (>5mm) margins. Resection resulting in paial or hemiglossectomy can be performed with either a cutting diathermy or laser if available. Advanced tumours (T3 and T4) often encroach upon the floor of the mouth and, occasionally, the mandible. In these circumstances a resection of the tongue and floor of the mouth and mandible is required. T4 tumours of the oral tongue may cross the midline, for which (sub)total glossectomy is the only option to achieve adequate tumour clearance. Decisions regarding elective neck dissections on the contralateral side will be dictated by radiological and clinical findings, in paicular proximity of the tumour to the midline.

BP tracking means?
|
Park's textbook of preventive and social medicine 23rd edition. IF blood pressure levels of individuals were followed up over a period of years from early childhood into adult life, then those individuals whose pressure were initially high in the distribution would probably will continue in the same tract as adults. Low blood pressure levels tend to remain low and high level tend to become higher as individuals grow older.this phenomenon of persistence of rank order of blood pressure has been described as tracking..

|
The antithyroid drugs like carbimazole, methimazole crosses the placenta (transplacental passage) and produce fetal hypothyroidism and goiter if the maternal dose is excessive. However, oral propylthiouracil would be the most appropriate therapy in early gestation at low doses as its greater protein binding allows less transfer to the foetus. Carbimazole and methimazole are also associated with rare cases of fetal aplasia cutis and other defects, such as choanal atresia. Thyroidectomy and Radioactive Iodine I131 are contraindicated during pregnancy.

Yergason's supination sign is seen in lesion of which muscle?
|
Bicipital tendinitis, or tenosynovitis, is produced by friction on the tendon of the long head of the biceps as it passes through the bicipital groove. When the inflammation is acute, patients experience anterior shoulder pain that radiates down the biceps into the forearm. Abduction and external rotation of the arm are painful and limited. The bicipital groove is very tender to palpation. Pain may be elicited along the course of the tendon by resisting supination of the forearm with the elbow at 90deg (Yergason's supination sign).

Ans- D Phenoxybenzamine Ref - Practice Essentials A pheochromocytoma (see the image below) is a rare, catecholamine-secreting tumor that may precipitate life-threatening hypertension. The tumor is malignant in 10% of cases but may be cured completely by surgical removal. Although pheochromocytoma has classically been associated with 3 syndromes--von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2), and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)--there are now 10 genes that have been identified as sites of mutations leading to pheochromocytoma. Axial, T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan showing large left suprarenal mass of high signal intensity on a T2-weighted image. The mass is a pheochromocytoma. View Media Gallery Signs and symptoms Classically, pheochromocytoma manifests as spells with the following 4 characteristics: Headaches Palpitations Diaphoresis Severe hypertension Typical patterns of the spells are as follows: Frequency may vary from monthly to several times per day Duration may vary from seconds to hours Over time, spells tend to occur more frequently and become more severe as the tumor grows The following may also occur during spells: Tremor Nausea Weakness Anxiety, sense of doom Epigastric pain Flank pain Constipation Clinical signs associated with pheochromocytomas include the following: Hypertension: Paroxysmal in 50% of cases Postural hypotension: From volume contraction Hypertensive retinopathy Weight loss Pallor Fever Tremor Neurofibromas Tachyarrhythmias Pulmonary edema Cardiomyopathy Ileus Cafe au lait spots See Clinical Presentation for more detail. Diagnosis Diagnostic tests for pheochromocytoma include the following: Plasma metanephrine testing: 96% sensitivity, 85% specificity 24-hour urinary collection for catecholamines and metanephrines: 87.5% sensitivity, 99.7% specificity Test selection criteria include the following: Use plasma metanephrine testing in patients at high risk (ie, those with predisposing genetic syndromes or a family or personal history of pheochromocytoma) Use 24-hour urinary collection for catecholamines and metanephrines in patients at lower risk Imaging studies should be performed only after biochemical studies have confirmed the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma. Studies are as follows: Abdominal CT scanning: Has accuracy of 85-95% for detecting adrenal masses with a spatial resolution of 1 cm or greater MRI: Preferred over CT scanning in children and pregnant or lactating women; has reported sensitivity of up to 100% in detecting adrenal pheochromocytomas Scintigraphy: Reserved for biochemically confirmed cases in which CT scanning or MRI does not show a tumor PET scanning: A promising technique for detection and localization of pheochromocytomas Additional studies to rule out a familial syndrome in patients with confirmed pheochromocytoma include the following: Serum intact parathyroid hormone level and a simultaneous serum calcium level to rule out primary hyperparathyroidism (which occurs in MEN 2A) Screening for mutations in the ret proto-oncogene (which give rise to MEN 2A and 2B) Genetic testing for mutations causing the MEN 2A and 2B syndromes Consultation with an ophthalmologist to rule out retinal angiomas (VHL disease) See Workup for more detail. Management Surgical resection of the tumor is the treatment of choice and usually cures the hypertension. Careful preoperative treatment with alpha and beta blockers is required to control blood pressure and prevent intraoperative hypertensive crises. Preoperative medical stabilization is provided as follows: Start alpha blockade with phenoxybenzamine 7-10 days preoperatively Provide volume expansion with isotonic sodium chloride solution Encourage liberal salt intake Initiate a beta blocker only after adequate alpha blockade, to avoid precipitating a hypertensive crisis from unopposed alpha stimulation Administer the last doses of oral alpha and beta blockers on the morning of surgery See Treatment and Medication for more detail.

The classic ECG finding in hyperophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is large dagger-like "septal Q waves" in the lateral -- and sometimes inferior -- leads due to the abnormally hyperophied interventricular septum.. Wolff-Parkinson-White, or WPW, syndrome can be associated with HOCM The murmur that is pathognomonic for HCM is a crescendo-decrescendo holosystolic murmur best heard at the left sternal boarder. The murmur classically increases with standing and valsalva, while it decreases with squatting, hand-grip, and passive leg lift . Ref Davidson edition23rd pg 463

In the second scenario, signs or symptoms suggesting sarcoidosis such as the presence of bilateral adenopathy may be present in an otherwise asymptomatic patient or a patient with uveitis or a rash consistent with sarcoidosis.

Treatment of Papillary Ca of Thyroid with bony metastasis
|
Ans. is 'd' i.e. Near total thyroidectomy with radioiodine & radiotherapy As already mentioned in previous question, Total or Near total thyroidectomy is t/t of choice in PTC and also FTC (except minimally invasive cancer). Radioactive iodine '3'1is used post-operatively to detect and destroy any metastatic disease. It is also advised by some expes to do a routine 1311scan and therapy for all patients of differentiated thyroid cancer, postoperatively (except those with occult or minimally invasive disease). Screening with RAI is more sensitive than chest x-ray or CT scanning for detecting metastases; however, it is less sensitive than Tg measurements for detecting metastatic disease in most differentiated thyroid cancers except Huhle cell tumors. External beam radiotherapy is used to treat bone metastasis (to prevent fracture or to control pain). It is also occasionally used to control unresectable, locally invasive or recurrent thyroid carcinoma. There is no role for routine chemotherapy in differentiated thyroid cancers. Other Postop management in differentiated thyroid cancers Thyroid Hormone T4 is given as replacement therapy in patients after total or near-total thyroidectomy, and has the additional effect of suppressing TSH and reducing the growth stimulus for any possible residual thyroid cancer cells. TSH suppression reduces tumor recurrence rates. Thyroglobulin measurement Thyroglobulin (Tg) is produced only by thyroid follicular cells. Following total thyroidectomy, it should be undetectable in serum and any detectable level then indicates the persistence or recurrence of neoplastic disease. This is the basis for the use of Tg as a post-operative tumor marker in the follow-up of thyroid cancer patients Tg levels in patients who have undergone total thyroidectomy should be <2 ng/mL when the patient is taking T4 , and <5 ng/mL when the patient is hypothyroid.

The Neuropsychology of Autobiographical Memory The medial temporal lobe memory system includes the hippocampus formation and the adjacent parahippocampal and perirhinal coices. The hippocampus is not the place where the content of memories is stored, but rather appears to contain a set of neural links to the content, which is distributed widely throughout the coex. Memories of an episode in one's life typically contain information from more than one modality: vision, hearing, and even taste, touch, and smell. Each of these components is stored in a unimodal sensory area, for example, the visual components of an episodic memory are stored in the visual coex in the occipital lobe, while the auditory components are stored in the auditory coex in the temporal lobe. These distributed representations are linked to a central index in the hippocampus. When recent episodes are retrieved, the index is reactivated, causing activation to spread to each of the associated unimodal areas. This is more correct of recent episodes, however. Once a representation of an episode has been fully consolidated, activation can spread between the separate features themselves, so that hippocampal activation is no longer needed. We are also beginning to gain an understanding of the brain areas that comprise the frontal components of the medial temporal lobe memory system. Medial temporal and hippocampal regions tend to be more involved in spatial context memory, while the frontocoical region, the diencephalon, and the temporal lobes are involved in temporal context memory. Much has also been learned about the neural bases of sho-term memory systems located in the frontal lobes. Psychologists have had trouble determining whether there is one type of sho-term memory, or several. The time span involved - exactly what 'sho' means - is also not widely agreed upon. In the 1980s, however, neuroscientists began exploring a large area in the dorsolateral poion of the prefrontal lobes. This area seems to be responsible for a so of memory that has been called 'working memory' - a concept that at least overlaps with the psychologist's concept of sho-term memory.

Cranial nerve related to apex of the petrous temporal bone
|
In the intraneural course,the fibres of VI nerve runs veically and downwardsthrough the trapezoid body,medial lemniscus and basilar pa of the pons to reach the lower border of the pons. The nerve is attached to the lower border of the pons,opposite the upper end of the pyramid of the medulla. The nerve then runs upwards,forwards and laterally through the cristerna pontis and usually dorsal to the anterior inferior cerebellar aery to reach the cavernous sinus. The ebducent nerve enters the cavernous sinus by piercing its posterior wall at a point lateral to the dorsum sellae and superior to the apex of the petrous temporal bone. As the nerve crosses the superior border of the petrous temporal bone,it passes beneath the petrosphenoidal ligament,and bends sharply forwards. In the cavernous sinus,at first it lies lateral to the internal carotid aery and then inferolateral to it. The abducent nerve enters the orbit through the middle pa of the superior orbital fissure. Here it lies inferolateral to the occulomotor and nasociliary nerves. In the orbit,the nerve ends by supplying only the lateral rectus muscle. It enters the ocular surface of the muscle.

COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME (ALGODYSTROPHY)
Sudeck, in 1900, described a condition characterized by painful osteoporosis of the hand. The same condition sometimes occurs after fractures of the extremities and for many years it was called Sudeck’s atrophy. It is now recognized that this advanced atrophic disorder is the late stage of a post-traumatic reflex sympathetic dystrophy (also known as algodystrophy), which is much more common than originally believed (Atkins, 2003) and that it may follow a relatively trivial injury. Because of continuing uncertainty about its nature, the term complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) has been introduced. Two types of CRPS are recognized:
TYPE 1
a reflex sympathetic dystrophy that develops after an injurious or noxious event.
TYPE 2
causalgia that develops after a nerve injury. The patient complains of continuous pain, often described as ‘burning’ in character. At first, there is local swelling, redness and warmth, as well as tenderness and moderate stiffness of the nearby joints. As the weeks go by the skin becomes pale and atrophic, movements are increasingly restricted and the patient may develop fixed deformities. X-rays characteristically show patchy rarefaction of the bone.

Shoest acting anticholinesterase is ?
|
Ans. is 'a' i.e., Edrophonium Edrophonium is the shoest acting anti-ChE. When carbamates (other than edrophonium) and organophophates react with cholinesterase, they form covalent bond at esteratic site, which is considerably resistant to hydrolysis. In contrast, edrophonium binds electrostatically and by hydrogen bonds at anionic site (not at esteratic site) of cholinesterase. The enzyme inhibitor complex does not involve a covalent bond and is correspondingly sho lived (2-10 minutes). So edrophonium is also called as noncovalent inhibitor.

Laparoscopy is the primary method used for diagnosing endometriosis. Laparoscopic findings are variable and may include discrete endometriotic lesions, endometrioma, and adhesion formation. The pelvic organs and pelvic peritoneum are typical locations for endometriosis. Lesions are variable colors, which may include red, white, and black. Laparoscopic visualization of ovarian endometriomas has a sensitivity and specificity of 97 percent and 95 percent, respectively.
