does De novo cholesterol use oxygen or malonyl CoA in his synthesis?

De novo or otherwise cholesterol doesn't have any malonyl COA in its synthesis, O2 infact is one of prime requirements.

malonyl COA is required in synthesis of fatty acids.
 
its superficial cervical lymph nodes.

right pb2007, and few more Qns
1. the deep cervical lymph nodes.. where are they exactly located.

2. what is the superficial landmark or structure to locate the glossopharyngeal nerve.

3. Is there a palatogingival groove present in maxillary canines?

4. Developmental grooves between contact areas of maxillary canines and 1 premolars and mandibular canines and 1 premolars. there are no developmental depressions on distal of canines, but in maxi, Premolars we have a mesial marginal ridge. In case of the mandibular 1 premolar are they talking about the mesiolingual developmental depression. As far as i know it doesn't reach the mesial surface completely. Can anybody please explain.
(This is a Qn from Released exam.)
 
Hey,

First of all good luck for exams..Will like to hear your exp as well as remembered questions..

Do u know - is TMJ a load bearing joint?

Thanks..
 
please try to contribute some thing before asking.
thank you for you wishes and same to you.

Since you are taking the exam presumably, then i guess this is of prime importance to know that we are not supposed to exchange or even ask for any remembered Questions. Its against ADA policy.

Well recently TMJ is being considered a load bearing joint, since past decade researches. I am not sure what they will consider if they as something like this in exam. Read a few articles, the new one consider it load bearing while old ones din't.

deep cervical lymph nodes r further divided into superior deep n inferior deep
the superior deep part lie along the internal jugular vein in the carotid triangle of the neck .

the inferior part lies on the internal jugular vein near the subclavian vein .

[source of info BRS ANATOMY}i hav read the 2nd ques sumwhere but jst cant remeber the answer now,lukin at netter's atlas but coudnt find much .if i cum across it while reading i willm for sure answer it.
 
hi,

right pb2007, 3. Is there a palatogingival groove present in maxillary canines?

No, it is present only on max lateral incisor.
http://www.jiacd.com/dentists-qa/local-factors-periodontal-disease

4. Developmental grooves between contact areas of maxillary canines and 1 premolars and mandibular canines and 1 premolars. there are no developmental depressions on distal of canines, but in maxi, Premolars we have a mesial marginal ridge. In case of the mandibular 1 premolar are they talking about the mesiolingual developmental depression. As far as i know it doesn't reach the mesial surface completely. Can anybody please explain.

Rather than saying mesial marginal ridge, you should say mesial marginal developmental groove is present on max 1 st premolar. it is an accentuation of central groove interrupting mesial marginal ridge,then moves down on the mesial surface.

this is different from mesial intra radicular groove which is also present on max 1 st premolar progressing on root.

there is a mesiolingual developmental groove present on mandibular 1st premolar . regarding the word depression ,see this link, it can be considered as a concavity also.

yes...i remember canine having a linguogingival groove.(read in decks)
 
can anyone suggest a gud source embrology of maxilla n nose ,i'm reading deck no 143 for anato my but cant picture the seuences of events takin place after stomodeum formation.

Thanks teethie and pb2007

and rose82, i also read the same thing in decks, about the palato/ linguogingival groove, which divides the cingulum and the fossa portion on the maxillary canine, wasn't sure if that is correct, so was confirming.

In the first Qn rose, i saw some pictures, also felt stylopharyngeus was one, but can we really locate the muscle on the surface. it is an intrinsic pharyngeal muscle. I felt styloid process would be a better option, as IX also winds around it before it supplies these muscles.
Wondering if anyone seconds this thought.

have gone through I.B. Singh for human embryology,
also try orbans if you can not get the above book.
 
i have read deck card # 150 , i am sure it is wrong, have never read this till today that max canine is the only tooth having linguogingival groove.
i checked in wheelers, it also mentions that there is a lingual ridge not lingual groove. this has also been discussed in the following thread.

actually its correct that we can locate the IX in the stylopharyngeus muscle🙂

lol🙂 can u guys believe it i did some qstns yestdy n got the same qstn abt the linguogingival grve n marked it as canine !!! i think thats given wrong in the decks its only the max lat which has the ling ging groove !!!!!!!👍 cos read the same thingi in the decks testlets n there they gave it as lateral:idea:
 
Thanks for the answer..

And as far as contribution - i am new here..I had taken exam earlier and remembered this question and just thought if u ppl can answer..and there are mostly those ppl here who have first asked question and then contributed (I am reading all posts since this thread started and how can one directly contribute without even asking?? n btw I asked a question is considered contribution only because i m quite sure that this question is asked in exams repeatedly..I had this question asked 3 times in my exam in different forms so u need to understand that) thats how one is motivated..however if one gets such response no one would like to contribute esp who joins new here..

I respect ADA policy but I see in this thread as well as some other threads that ppl do post "remembered" questions..if u hav prob thats perfectly fine..

Anyways I had actually come to really "contribute" something but after getting such a "great" response to 1 question I think this thread just belongs to few of u..

Anyways good luck for exams and do understand that all ppl are not on same page..If u dont wanna give answer just dont give but dont discourage ppl from asking new questions..
 
You were never discouraged for asking questions and this thread and all threads are th example of it, the way you asked share remembered questions, you should be familiar with ADA policies and sdn policies before even typing that word on the thread.
like you said the below things:
Anyways I had actually come to really "contribute" something but after getting such a "great" response to 1 question I think this thread just belongs to few of u..

Do not you think you are so selfish now???
there was a time when i posted so many queries regarding so many things but i got no answer and after writing a third post, your motivation is down or are you trying to be defensive here by making others offensive.
if someone knows the answer, they do share it here and it is not a monopoly here going on, so please think before even writng your comments. TMJ question was not an easy question to answer without any valid reference.
all the senior membere on sdn ARE NOT SENIOR JUST BY WRITING BLA BLAH..THEY HAVE CONTRIBUTED HERE,SO PLEASE TRY TO BE SUBMISSIVE WHEN ASKING A FAVOR . THIS KIND OF MODESTY IS EXPECTED IN DENTISTRY ATLEAST.



Thanks for the answer..

Well ur response..as expected...

I understand all policies but i can show u lots of post where "remembered" question term is used..I never heard anyone saying there then..

Anyways this is a study thread so let it b like that..I apologize if you senior ppl felt bad..

P.S writing in capital is considered shouting and even that is also not expected in dentistry or from dentist.. (Sdn policy no 2 - Be courteous)

I request not to carry this any further and I will try to contribute in whatever way I can now onwards before asking..
 
I was not shouting at all, I was only trying to say something unethical is not allowed to discuss here. thanks a lot for your understanding and i am definitely looking forward to your contribution because you have already taken the exam and know more than a senior member including me, so please help us. I sincerley apologise if you felt bad.

Well ur response..as expected...

alright so guys i just finished taking the 2004 pilot exam and it made me realize how much i dont know lol. It was a good exam. Which other exam have you guys taken that you thought is helpful??? only the recent released exams...thanks.

32 pearl, i just saw the whole debate here, and I apologize if I was any reason having this initiated anyways. see the reason we are trying to tell you about the ADA and sdn policy again and again, is that its just a matter of time that some moderator sees the post regarding your Qn on previous Qns and they might ban you. I guess sooner or later the same is done with anyone doing so on SDN. We don't want anyone should not benefit from SDN just because of not knowing a rule. So just be careful as to what we are asking here.

As for the contribution goes your right that you ask a Qn and if anyone reading the thread knows the answer he she should answer here itself. Its for everyone not a few of us. Looking forward to more Qns. from you.

Also please guys if anyone has any difficult or tricky Qns please post here instead of PMs, PMs are meant more for anything not relevant to the thread.
And in the end this thread is for everyone, i am sure i ll keep adding my inputs here after the exam, in anyway i can.
 
Hi,

Maxillary canine has labiolingually linguogingival groove...For sure
what is the superficial landmark or structure to locate the glossopharyngeal nerve.stylopharyngeus muscle

3. Is there a palatogingival groove present in maxillary canines?
yes...i remember canine having a linguogingival groove.(read in decks)
 
Hi I have one question about mandibular first molar. Comparing cusps

on deck: MB>DB>ML>DL>D
on buster: ML>DL>MB>DB>D

I am so confused😕 could anyone help me?? Thank u!!

on dental buster: page 285, it said max canine does not have developmental groove, but have mesiolingual fossa...did u mean that?

I agree with u, because from the teeth model only showed disto-lingua groove on lateral canlne, right?
 
Hey,

Regarding MAndi 1st molar cusp size i think seq. is
MB > ML > DL > DB > Distal..

Pls correct if I am wrong..

you are right 32pearl.
ok so there are 2 things, cusp size and cusp height..
according to cusp size
MB>ML>DL>DB>D

according to cusp height, (which corresponds to the height of pulp horns)
ML>DL>MB>DB>D

there are so many discrepancies in decks, that is why we need to double check every time what they write. Board busters are right here in terms of cusp heights.

thanks so much...I have another question

a. lingual surface of a maxillary lingual cusp

c. lingual surface of maxillary facial cusp

why the answer is not lingual surface of maxillary facial cusp?? Thank you😍

:idea:actually thats correct cos in right lateral means its the workin side so the mandibular teeth movw straight to the buccal side n the mandib DL cusp is the guiding cusp which hav to cross the ligual surfce of the DL usp of the maxillary molar!!!!!make a right lat mov n see ull understand ! hope this helps 👍 🙂

To cut the story short they are asking which contacts are not happening in the right laterla working movt.
Explanation
In working side movt, there is contact between lingual surface of maxillary facial cusp as this is the inner incline of guiding cusp which would normally contact with the outer incline of mandibular supporting cusp (buccal cusp).

Similarly facial or buccal or outer incline of maxi lingual cusp will normally contact the inner / lingual incline of mandibular lingual cusp in a laterotrusive movt.
So both B. And C. are ruled out.
Also only contact not possible in working side movt. is inner inclines of maxillary lingual and inner inclines of mandibular buccal( both supporting cusps) . here we have one of these as options which is leading to an interference in this right laterotrusive movt. leading to # of the given maxillary lingual cusp.
 
hi,

could you please help me with this question:

which of following fibres are not periodontal ligament fibres?

1)apical
2)oblique
3)principal
4)transverse
5)Transseptal
6)interradicular

ans given is transseptal,i thought its transverse
which is correct
thanks
 
the ans TRANSEPTAL is correct cos they r a different grp of fibers also called principle fibers n TRANSVERSE i think they refer to the horizontal grp of fibers which r pdl fibers🙂
 
Q. Till where does the sympathetic plexus over the ECA and ICA run over the respective arteries[/QUO

The sympathetic trunk forms a plexus of nerves around the artery known as the carotid plexus. The internal carotid nerve arises from the superior cervical ganglion, and forms this plexus, which follows the internal carotid into the skull.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_carotid_artery#Carotid_plexus

,
http://anatomy.med.umich.edu/nervous_system/deepneck_tables.html
in this link check under topic nerves in carotid plexus external n internal .

hope it helps.

Hi,
on dental buster page 293 said "ML is the largest cup from occlusal view" instead height....could anyone explain it?? Is it mistake? thanks a lot? I think ML is the largest cusp too...anyone have second explaination about this? Thanks^^😍

are you sure, i hope it is not the maxillary molar they are talking about here.
in mandibular molar MB is the largest cusp by size for sure.. You can see it in any book, wheelers or typhodonts, in fact it is the supporting cusp so its bound to be the largest .
 
Hey..
Need help with this concept plssss :

What kind of connective tissue can we find in the intermedial zone of the retro discal pad , (iam not talkin about disc),,can u pls help with this concept !!
thanks in advance !!

thanks in advance !!
this is what i found out frm okeson 1st chap
the articular disc is attached posteriorly to a region of loose connective tissuethat is highly vascularized n innervated.this is known as retrodiscal or posterior attachment .superiorly ,it is bordered by a lamina of connective tissue that contains many elastic fibres ,the superior retrodiscal lamina.the inferior retrodiscal lamina is chiefly composed of collagenous fibres ,not elastic fibres .
not sure if this what u wanted to know .
 
Thanks pb2007 , but wana know what kind of c.t in the intermedial zone of retrodiscal pad ! !! these r concepts need to clear them up..
 
i agree with pb2007 explanation.

Is not the retrodiscal tissue and intermediate zone are different things..

😕yea....dental buster pg 293 showed ML is the largest cusp for mand 1st molar
I wished I read wrong....because it really bother me..............Where could I find right answer????????
 
i totally agree with ddsaspi for cusp size and height.
please refer reference books only in such anatomy cases.

you are right 32pearl.

Can some one correct this pls :

after attrition incisal outline of mandibular canine normally exhibits
a. longer mesiolingual slope than distoincisal slope-answer?
b.longer distoincisal slope
c.mesio and distoincisal slopes of same lenght
d. straight line with no slopes
e. cusp tip offset to distal
what do u think ,dont u think this answer is wrong !!!!!
 
which organism is found in the gingival sulcus?
treponema, porphyromonas or strepto
pls if anyone knows?
 
Efferent limb of masseteric reflex cell bodies lies where......
is it motor nucleus of trigeminal nerve
plz confirm.
