A note from the author This book is yours. It is your companion for the boards. Until your exam is over, you would be smart to have it handy – in your backpack, in your jacket, or in your pocket. You can read it anywhere – on a bus, on a train, on a plane, or even in the rain. This book has no beginning and no end. Each part is both dependent on and independent of the other parts. Much like the human body. You can start it anywhere – at the beginning, in the middle, or at the end. You can open it anytime – early morning, midday, or at night. You may write on it, draw on it, and add to it – and you may do so as your heart desires. It will tell you how much you have learned and what you have yet to learn. The more you read it, wear it, and tear it, the more you will earn from it. And when it’s all over, you will remember that you had one companion the whole way – the one that was there for you every day. Dr. Jahan Eftekar Table of Contents 1. Cardiology 1 2. Vasculitides 6 3.

  • USMLE – What's It
    Purpose of this handout Congratulations on making it to Year 2 of medical school! You are that much closer to having your Doctor of Medicine degree. If you want to PRACTICE medicine, however, you have to be licensed, and in order to be licensed you must first pass all four United States Medical Licensing Exams. This book is intended as a starting point in your preparation for getting past the first hurdle, Step 1. It contains study tips, suggestions, resources, and advice. Please remember, however, that no single approach to studying is right for everyone. USMLE – What is it for? In order to become a licensed physician in the United States, individuals must pass a series of examinations conducted by the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME). These examinations are the United States Medical Licensing Examinations, or USMLE. Currently there are four separate exams which must be passed in order to be eligible for medical licensure: Step 1, usually taken after the completion of the second year of medical school; Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK), this is usually taken by December 31st of Year 4 Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS), this is usually be taken by December 31st of Year 4 Step 3, typically taken during the first (intern) year of post graduate training. Requirements other than passing all of the above mentioned steps for licensure in each state are set by each state’s medical licensing board. For example, each state board determines the maximum number of times that a person may take each Step exam and still remain eligible for licensure.

There are several anatomical and pathological eponyms in the digestive systems. 1–4 We have reviewed selected eponyms of the digestive system pathology, and present it in a tabulation form in table.1. 5–41 The remarks surrounding the terms and eponyms in the digestive system are no different from those encountered in medicine in general. We are not interested to mention these are remarks, as these have been discussed extentensively in the medical literature. However, we list few examples. Some of the eponyms are no longer in use.

  • A Novel Splice Site Indel Alteration in the EIF2AK3 Gene Is Responsible For
    Sümegi et al. BMC Medical Genetics (2020) 21:61 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12881-020-0985-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A novel splice site indel alteration in the EIF2AK3 gene is responsible for the first cases of Wolcott-Rallison syndrome in Hungary Andrea Sümegi1, Zoltán Hendrik2, Tamás Gáll1, Enikő Felszeghy3, Katalin Szakszon3, Péter Antal-Szalmás4, Lívia Beke2, Ágnes Papp3, Gábor Méhes2, József Balla1,5 and György Balla1,3* Abstract Background: Wolcott-Rallison Syndrome (WRS) is a rare autosomal recessive disease that is the most common cause of neonatal diabetes in consanguineous families. WRS is caused by various genetic alterations of the Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2-Alpha Kinase 3 (EIF2AK3) gene. Methods: Genetic analysis of a consanguineous family where two children were diagnosed with WRS was performed by Sanger sequencing. The altered protein was investigated by in vitro cloning, expression and immunohistochemistry. Results: The first cases in Hungary, − two patients in one family, where the parents were fourth-degree cousins - showed the typical clinical features of WRS: early onset diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia, growth retardation, infection-induced multiple organ failure. The genetic background of the disease was a novel alteration in the EIF2AK3 gene involving the splice site of exon 11– intron 11–12 boundary: g.53051_53062delinsTG. According to cDNA sequencing this created a new splice site and resulted in a frameshift and the development of an early termination codon at amino acid position 633 (p.Pro627AspfsTer7). Based on in vitro cloning and expression studies, the truncated protein was functionally inactive. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the intact protein was absent in the islets of pancreas, furthermore insulin expressing cells were also dramatically diminished.

  • Methodical Instruction for Lectures
    Ministry of Public Health of Ukraine Ukrainian Medical Stomatological Academy Approved at the meeting of the department Infection diseases and epidemiology «28» August 2019 protocol № 1 from «28» August 2019 the Head of the Department _________ Koval T.I. Methodical Instruction for lectures Study discipline Infectious diseases and epidemiology Module № Infectious diseases and epidemiology Topic Acute respiratory viral infections. Clinical characteristics and prevention of influenza. Course 4 Faculty Stomatological Number of teaching hours: 2 Poltava -2019 1. Scientific and methodological substantiation of the topic. Infectious diseases today remain extremely relevant. In the past decades, previously unknown infections — HIV infection, Lyme disease, campylobacteriosis, SARS, and others — have spread, and the achieved reduction in the incidence of diphtheria and measles has not been maintained. There is an increase in the incidence of viral hepatitis, acute intestinal infectious diseases, tuberculosis among the population of Ukraine and other countries. The clinical manifestations of infectious diseases can be different, often atypical, can lead to hospitalization of the patient in a medical institution of any profile. The ability to recognize infectious pathology, correctly conduct differential diagnosis, prescribe appropriate treatment, ensure that the necessary preventive measures are taken that are necessary for a doctor of any specialty. In our country, the classification of infectious diseases, academician L.V. Gromashevsky, has become most widespread. The classification is based on the principle of the predominant localization of the pathogen in the body, which is due to a certain transmission mechanism. One of the most important components in the treatment of patients for infectious diseases is inpatient treatment. Infectious Diseases Hospital is a special medical institution, which has a number of structural and functional units in order to ensure effective treatment, examination and isolation of patients.

Respondents prevailed in a jury trial brought pursuant to FELA against petitioner based on injuries resulting from petitioner’s negligence in exposing respondents to asbestos at the workplace. The questions presented are: 1. Whether the trial judge properly instructed the jury that a plaintiff railroad employee who has a reasonable fear of cancer because he is suffering from a physical disease caused by the defendant railroad employer’s negligently exposing the plaintiff to asbestos is entitled to be compensated for that mental injury under FELA. 2. Whether the trial judge properly declined to instruct the jury in a FELA lawsuit to apportion damages between the defendant railroad employer and absent third parties where the plaintiff railroad employees were suffering from indivisible injuries caused by the railroad’s negligence.

    The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology Department of Veterinary Pathology Wednesday Slide Conference 2010-2011 Conference 15 5 January 2011 Conference Moderator: Gary D. Coleman, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVP, Diplomate ACVPM CASE I: 09A731 (AFIP 3165087). Signalment: 5.65-year-old, female, Indian macaque (Macaca mulatta). History: Found dead in an outside breeding corral without history of previous illness. Gross Pathology: The animal was dehydrated with evidence of fecal soiling around the anus. Small intestine and colon were distended with fluid and gas. Contents were blood-tinged and foul smelling. Mesenteric lymph nodes were severely enlarged. Laboratory Results: Colonic swab cultures contained Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Campylobacter coli. Histopathologic Description: Small intestine: Small intestinal mucosa contains multiple to confluent areas of necrosis and hemorrhage that in some areas extend to the muscularis mucosa. Necrotic foci are filled with neutrophils forming microabscesses with dense microcolonies of extracellular bacteria. Scattered hyalinized eosinophilic deposits around crypts and vessels in the lamina propria demonstrate apple green birefringence when stained with Congo red and observed with polarized light. Contributor’s Morphologic Diagnosis: 1. Enteritis, necrohemorrhagic, suppurative, multifocal, severe, with intra- lesion bacterial colonies. Etiology: Yersinia pseudotuberculosis 2. Amyloidosis, secondary, small intestine and mesenteric lymph node (not submitted) Contributor’s Comment: Yersinia pseudotuberculosis is a disease of rodents and birds but has been reported in rabbits, deer, dogs, cats, swine, sheep, goats, chinchillas, horses, non-human primates, man and exotic mammals. In cases where multiple pathogens are isolated, it may be difficult to associate lesions with a specific pathogen. However, necrotizing lesions in the small intestine, obvious bacterial colonization, and severe neutrophilic response are hallmarks of Yersiniosis.1 Three species of Yersinia are pathogenic for humans and non-human primates: Y.
