Study Notes

  • TIBC (total iron binding capacity) is a relevant factor in assessing iron deficiency anemia.
  • Scarlet fever and Histoplasmosis are two distinct medical conditions.
  • DNA ploidy is a factor used to assess the possibility of dysplasia in a premalignant lesion.
  • Giant cell tumor differs from giant cell granuloma in the presence of giant cells, presence of inflammatory cells, and number of nuclei in giant cells.
  • Liquefactive necrosis is a type of necrosis seen on cross-section of the left ventricle of the heart in a patient who has died of myocardial infarction.
  • A mother transferring a disease to all her children is an example of mitochondrial inheritance.
  • Coagulative necrosis is a type of necrosis seen in the brain section.
  • Thrombotic thrombocytopenic Purpura is a diagnosis suggested by blood film showing schistocytosis and thrombocytopenia.
  • Pale infarct is characterized by being found in loose soft tissues, having a transient light red color, and involving a wedge-shaped area with an apex pointing towards arterial obstruction.
  • Actinomycosis is a disorder characterized by the formation of multiple sinus tracts during abscess drainage.
  • Right renal arterial stenosis in the kidney leads to atrophy.
  • Breast cancers due to BRCA-1 gene mutation have an incidence of 40%.
  • An affected father transmitting a disease to all daughters is an example of X-linked recessive inheritance.
  • Serum transferrin is increased in iron deficiency anemia.
