Patient is found to have an injury to spinal accessory nerve in post.triangle of the neck.It will cause paralysis of
1.trapezius
2.sternocleidomastoideus
3.bla-bla-bla

Is there any reason both options are given???
 
Ingestion of which following most markedly affect the rate of gastric emptying?
1) FAT
2) protein...why is not protein, I thought stomach digest protein most


Thank you guys...Sorry to keep posting questions---> I have no time:scared:.
 
Guys,can smb drop me a link or explain relationship between primary molars and 1st perm.molar("end to end",what is it?what others??????

Thanks!

On Netter's head and neck anatomy for denstistry, page109, It said
in the leision of CN11 located in the post triangle, the STM muscle is unaffected but the trapezius muscle is deinnervated. But the answer provided from deck testlet case 9 and 5 answer is STM...I do not know which is right:scared:

Thank you guys...Sorry to keep posting questions---> I have no time:scared:.
Fats inhibit gastric emptying.... it is not about what can stomach digest the most!.... Greater quantity of fats in the diet ALways slow down gastric empyting!
 
during oxidative phosphorylation, the energetically unfavorable proton is created using energy from which following?
1) Electron transfer
2)ATP hydrolysis....why is not this answer, since there's a ATP pump on Electron transport chain

Thanks a lot, really appreciate it....can not wait to finish this exam ><
Because the question is asking "energetically unfavorable proton is created using energy from".... This is done by Electron transfer..... LATER when the proton has been created the energy is used to drive the process of ATP hydrolysis!
 
Would like to know, how can we treat hyperpolarization of nerve as well as hypopolarization of nerve ,,any idea !! is it by eflux of ions or what !
Thanks

Well i kind of understand what you want to know
So let me just write down a few things
HYPOPOLARIZTION
-Negative afterpotential
-EPSP
-Cells are Hyperexcitable


HYPERPOLARIZATION
-Positive afterpotential
-IPSP
-Cells are Hypoexcitable

So i guess any of these and their reasons will solve the problem! Hope this helps

Do correct me if i am wrong.. this is a confusing topic
 
Hey guys could not understand the answer to this question


Which of the following will most likely be INCREASED in a pateint with Hyperparathyroidism?
a.Intestinal Calcium absorption
b.Intestinal organic Phosphate absorption
c.Renal Calcitriol production
d.Renal Calcium excretion
e.Renal organic Phosphate excretion

(this is Q.363 from L-Pilot exam)

HI guys i am sorry to raise this question again but right now i was going through Kaplan review and saw the effects of PTH
- i agree PTH acts on intestinal absorbption indirectly
-BUt it is written there in the Endocrine physiology chapter that
"Effects on the kidney. PTH acts directly to promote Ca tubular reabsorption and phosphate ecretion"
In the left column also this is what is written-
"Increases calcium reabsorption in the distal nephron, decreasing calcium excretion"

Now i will have to mug up the ASDA answer but would like someone to explain me how is that true??? any reference would be great also
 
as it is there is no relatinoship between primary and permanenet. it is only flush terminal plane in primary molars between max and mandibular where the both lie end to end.
in permanent, man 1st molar comes mesiaaly to develop into class 1 relation.



Guys,can smb drop me a link or explain relationship between primary molars and 1st perm.molar("end to end",what is it?what others??????

Thanks!

From dental decks testlets

When viewed from the saggital plane and progressing anteriorly , the axial inclination of the anterior teeth should :
1.remain vertical
2.incline facially(my ans)-----------agree👍
3.mesially
4.distally
5.lingually(ANS Why???)

does that mean the unfavorable H toward outer membrane, and ATP will pump H+ in (how come the cell will prefer low pH)?
 
Teethy!!!!
Can you please be more specific!

take a look the pic on deck pag205 for dental anatomy, they have really good picture for that!
I think end to end relationship in kids is similar to adult class II like protrude. Later on, if the kids' teeth move mesially--> lateral mesial shift, it will create adult class I, if the teeth did not shift, the person will have class II biting...hope this help ^^ good luck on ur studyin

When viewed from the proximal, which of the following permanent teeth appears to be aligned in its arch with the axial inclination of its roots most nearly vertical?

  1. Maxillary first molar
  2. Mandibular second molar
  3. Maxillary first premolar...why is this one

From a proximal view, which of the following permanent teeth tends to be positioned in the arch with its axis most nearly vertical?

  1. Maxillary canine..why?????????????????????
  2. Maxillary lateral incisor
  3. Maxillary central incisor
  4. Mandibular lateral incisor
  5. Mandibular central incisor

The mesial surface of the crown is almost parallel to the long axis and the root of a

  1. maxillary first premolar.....how come is not this
  2. mandibular second premolar.
  3. maxillary canine.
  4. mandibular canine

I guess I got confused about why parallel to the long axisis not same as appears to be aligned in its arch with the axial inclination of its roots most nearly vertical? Sorry to ask this kind of dump Qs, but I got rong several times on practice exam..any good way to access this kind of Q???

What is skeletal muscle triad?
In different tests there are dif.answers!
In the histology of skeletal muscle, a triad is the structure formed by a T tubule with a sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) known as the terminal cisterna on either side.[1] Each skeletal muscle fiber has many thousands of triads, visible in muscle fibers that have been sectioned longitudinally. (This property holds because T tubules run perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the muscle fiber.) In mammals, triads are typically located at the A-I junction;[1] that is, the junction between the A and I bands of the sarcomere, which is the smallest unit of a muscle fiber.

protons are being pumped into the intramembranous area of the mitochondria ,this proton accumulation outside creates the potential difference between inner matrix n intramembranous membrane that will move protons back inside with the help of atp synthase .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemiosmosis
The complete breakdown of glucose in the presence of oxygen is called cellular respiration. The last steps of this process occur in mitochondria. The reduced molecules NADH and FADH2 are generated by the Krebs cycle and glycolysis. These molecules pass electrons to an electron transport chain, which uses the energy released to create a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. ATP synthase then uses the energy stored in this gradient to make ATP. This process is called oxidative phosphorylation because oxygen is the final electron acceptor and the energy released by reducing oxygen to water is used to phosphorylate ADP and generate ATP.The complete breakdown of glucose in the presence of oxygen is called cellular respiration.

Q..The lymph vessels that drain both the dental arches connect directly with which of the following nodes?
A. submandibular
B> deep cervical
c.sublingual
D.retropharyngeal
E.superficial cervical

The answer is A...but i think it should be B..because lower ant teeth drain into submental.... and rest into sub mandibular> sub mandibular and submental drain into deep cervical...please answer..😕

No,only lower incisors drain into submental,all other teeth into submandibular (directly) and then into deep cervical
 
Could you explain the mechanism?
After subcutaneous implantation of salivary and pancreas glands,during having a meal only pancreas will release enz.?

i think its coz salivary glands hav secretory control of parasympathetic n sympathetic while pancreas release insulin wen they moniter the level of glucose in blood .
 
does anyone know what type of congenital defects are prone to endocarditis other than tetralgy of fallope
kaplan mentions aortic valve stenosis or atresia can also lead to endocarditis .
check page no 169 of kapaln review under cvs chap for patho .
 
thanks pb2007
the unconjigated is elevated because u have excess breakdown in hemolytic anemia and the liver can't process it all so u'll have raise in unconjugated correct me if i'm wrong.
 
A 12-year-old boy has had multiple episodes of ear pain accompanied by fever. On examination his right tympanic membrane is red and bulging with yellow exudate. Laboratory studies of the exudate show culture positive for Hemophilus influenzae. A year later he has conductive hearing loss on the right, and a head CT scan shows a mass in the right middle ear. Which of the following materials is most likely to be seen in the tissue curetted from his middle ear?
A Lipofuscin
B Russell bodies
C Neutrophils
D Cholesterol crystals
E Anthracotic pigment

The answer is D. The lipid from the red cell membranes is broken down and cholesterol crystals form. The boy has the complication of otitis media known as a cholesteatoma.

A 59-year-old woman had the loss of consciousness that persisted for over an hour. When she becomes arousable, she cannot speak nor move her right arm or leg. A cerebral angiogram revealed an occlusion to her left middle cerebral artery. Months later, a computed tomographic (CT) scan shows a large 5 cm cystic area in her left parietal lobe cortex. This CT finding is most likely the consequence of resolution from which of the following cellular events?
A Liquefactive necrosis
B Atrophy
C Coagulative necrosis
D Caseous necrosis
E Apoptosis

Answer is A: She had a 'stroke' with loss of brain tissue. The brain undergoes liquefactive necrosis with infarction. As it resolves, macrophaes remove the dead cells and debria, leaving a cystic area that forms in the region of infarction.

thanks for putting those gud ques ibeflossin,
can you plz help me with the reasoning of these ques .
hemodynamics of flow in tooth pulp are most likely analogous to those in the
1 heart
2 lungs
3 cranium.....answer [why??}
4 liver
5 gut

vagal stimulation in mammalian heart has primarily rate effect becAUSE
1 acetycholine has little direct effect on contractility of heart muscle .
2 there are few vagal endings distributed to mammalian ventricles
3 acetylcholine is not liberated in effective amount sat vagal endings in mamalian ventricles
4 sympathetic effects cancel those of vagus.
2 choice is the answer mentioned but effect of vagal is more dominant than sympathetic ,actually i dont understand what ques is asking .

The net rate of fluid movement across the microvascular endothelium is govermed by hydrostatic and protein osmotic pressures operating on each side of the vessel wall. These basic forces regulating the pulpal transmicrovascular fluid exchange are the same as in other tissues. However, the pulp is special in regard to its enclosement between rigid dentin walls, just like that of the cranium implying low interstitial compliance.

possibly has something to do w/ the plexus of blood vessels in the pulp (i.e. arteriovenous anastamoses) similar to that in the cranium (i.e. anastamoses w/ the different sinuses, or the circle of willis)? that's really the only thing i can think of.

i think it's asking "why does vagal stimulation in the heart have primarily a RATE effect", so why does the vagus nerve stimulate HR? so you know the R vagus stimulates the SA node, so it's just asking why is the rate affected more... & it's because SA node is the pacemaker of the heart & the reason it's a pacemaker of the heart is because there isn't very much innervation to the ventricles. hope this helps. **vagus nerve will decrease HR fyi.
