worldwide

A deficiency of intrinsic factor will result in_______________ Anemia - answer-
Pernicious
A renal disease most often associated with autoimmunity is - answer-
Glomerulonephritis.
A transferrin deficiency will most likely result in: - answer-Iron-deficiency anemia.
WHY
Transferrin saturation checks how many places on transferrin that can hold iron.
Normal values are 20% to 50%. In severe cases of iron-deficiency anemia, this
number may fall below 10%
A Type II hypersensitivity reaction is____________and usually occurs as a result of
happens that cause an___________ antibody or __________ antibody mediated
response - answer-1.tissue-specific
2.IgG antibody or IgM antibody
A Word About Autoimmunity - answer-•Autoimmune diseases can be familial.
•Affected family members may not all develop the same disease, but several
members may have different disorders characterized by a variety of
hypersensitivity reactions
•These include autoimmune and allergic reactions.
•Associations with particular autoimmune diseases have been identified for a
variety of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) alleles or non-MHC genes.
Acute Blood Loss Anemia - answer-•Trauma victims who are losing blood
Afterload definition - answer-resistance to systolic pressure.(Blood Pressure)
Allergic contact dermatitis is an example of_________hypersensitivity reaction. -
answer-Type 4
, Allergic contact dermatitis is an example of a Type IV hypersensitivity reaction
mediated by T-cells. When the individual comes in contact with the antigen (e.g.
poison ivy), an antigen complex is formed. On subsequent exposure to the
antigen, sensitized T-cells activate the inflammatory process that causes the
allergic contact dermatitis to appear
Alloimmunity - answer-•General term used to describe when an individual's
immune system reacts against antigens on the tissues of other members of the
same species
Although less common, transferrin deficiencies and mitochondrial defects can
lead to iron deficiency anemia TRUE OR FALSE - answer-TRUE
An example of a primary immunodeficiency is: - answer-Chronic Granulomatous
Disease.
WHY
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an example of a primary
immunodeficiency
An example of a secondary immunodeficiency is - answer-Pneumocystis Carinii.
WHY
Pneumocystis Carinii is an example of a secondary immunodeficiency. It is
caused by something external to the immune system; in this case, a yeast-like
fungus.
An individual who has received an incorrect blood transfusion will exhibit signs
of: - answer-Hemolytic anemia.
Anaphylaxis is a
_________ hypersensitivity reaction - answer-Type 1
Type 1 hypersensitivity reactions are mediated by IgE and mast cells. An
individual who is highly sensitized to the antigen may experience anaphylaxis.
Anemia of chronic disease LAB VALUES - answer-TEST
Serum Ferritin Levels- NORMAL to INCREASED
Red Blood Cell Distribution-NORMAL
Serum Iron Levels-NORMAL TO DECREASE
Total Iron Binding Capacity- SLIGHTLY DECREASE
Transferrin Saturation- NORMAL to SLIGHTLY INCREASE
Anemias can also be classified according to the color of the RBCs: - answer-
Hypochromic anemia describes RBCs with less hemoglobin than normal. As a
result, the RBCs appear pale in color (MCHC is low).
Hyperchromic anemia describes RBCs with more hemoglobin than normal. As a
result, the RBCs appear a dark hue or red than normal cells (MCHC is high).
Normochromic anemia describes RBCs that have a normal amount of
hemoglobin. As a result, the RBCs appear neither pale nor dark (MCHC is
normal).
Aortic Regurgitation - answer-•Shortness of breath that progressively worsens;
•High-pitched early diastolic murmur heart loudest at the left lower sternal
border
•Diastolic rumbling sound at the heart's apex and a
•Systolic crescendo-decrescendo murmur heard at the left upper sternal border.
