Step I Random Words/Terms Review of First Aid

[MudPhud20XX]

Advertisement - Members don't see this ad

Hi all, as most of us are approaching to their dedicated study period for step 1, I thought I would start a thread to boost our memorization of First Aid. I am not one of those smart folks with good retention and I need some repetition and time to memorize. So if you guys happen to find some unfamiliar words/terms that strike you, just put those words in this thread and someone can add some explanation. How does this sound? So I will start. (Let's stick to First Aid .)

Cabergoline?

Also cause pseudohypoparathyroidism and pseudo pseudo.

Does FA specifically say "pseudohypoparathyroidism?" Or is it just part of the multiple endocrine problems seen in McCune Albright?

1.Overly inhibited? Are u sure? I thought it is due to overexpress bcl-2.

Apaf-1 is overly inhibited when bcl-2 is overexpressed such as in follicular lymphoma. So think opposite for Apaf-1, thus inhibition of Apaf-1 and overexpression of bcl-2 both lead to dec caspase activation and inc tumorigenesis

 

[MudPhud20XX]

1. Pathology associated with "bilobed nuclei?"

2. Pathology associated with "inflammatory lesions of subcutaneous fat."

3. More soluble product of uric acid

 

[chillaxbro]

3. IDK but you use RasberryCase

 

[W19]

Cysticercosis

 

[MudPhud20XX]

what is the alpha chain of IL-2 receptor?

u got me. Thanks.

I was thinking BAX. Correct me if I'm wrong...

 

[MudPhud20XX]

1. pathology associated with "broad collar rash = casal necklace?"

2. dermatome for "xiphoid process?"

 

[MudPhud20XX]

I agree with you that in follicular lymphoma BAX is inhibited.

 

[BlueArc]

1. pathology associated with "broad collar rash = casal necklace?"-

2. dermatome for "xiphoid process?"

- Niacin deficiency.

- T7

BTW I took step today... I probably won't be around much longer. Thanks for everything @MudPhud20XX and @worldbeater and @jqueb29 !

Dang, congrats! How did it go man? Did you see some random questions from FA?

 

[chillaxbro]

I thought it was easier than Uworld and the NBMEs I took but I had about 1/3 of my questions marked so maybe it was just false feeling

 

[MudPhud20XX]

Congrats hope you did well. So would you say that this thread is helpful to score some questions from FA?

Yes I got 1 question right that I only knew the answer to because of this thread!

 

[chillaxbro]

Yes I got 1 question right that I only knew the answer to because of this thread!

Also I highly recommend sketchypharm. I only had time to watch about half the videos and they were playing at 2x speed. I know I got at least 3 questions right only because I remembered pharm stuff from those videos

 

[chillaxbro]

congrats man! 72 days left here 🙁

Yeeeeehhh you also answered a lot of my questions. Thanks and good luck on step

 

[MudPhud20XX]

Good to know!, Alright guys let's keep up the hard work!

1. Pathology associated with "bilobed nuclei?"

2. Pathology associated with "inflammatory lesions of subcutaneous fat."

3. More soluble product of uric acid

For #1 were you thinking the pseudo pelger huet cells which are the bi lobed PMN's found in myelodysplasric syndromes and such, esp associated with chemo?

[ShirleyXia]

what is the alpha chain of IL-2 receptor?

Could u explain clinical relevance about IL-2 R alpha?

 

[ShirleyXia]

1. Pathology associated with "bilobed nuclei?"

2. Pathology associated with "inflammatory lesions of subcutaneous fat."

3. More soluble product of uric acid

1. ES cells, neutrophils after chemotherapy, eosinophils
2. Erythema nodosum
3. Allantoin ( seems like allantois, but total different)

1. pathology associated with "broad collar rash = casal necklace?"

2. dermatome for "xiphoid process?"

3. Dermatome for C6, T4, T10(uw has a question about this), S3

 

[MudPhud20XX]

Could u explain clinical relevance about IL-2 R alpha?

So the alpha chain of IL-2 receptor is CD25 which is expressed on the T reg. Sattar mentions that CD25 polymorphism leads to dysfunction in autoimmunity such as DM1 and MS

[MudPhud20XX]

3. Dermatome for C6, T4, T10(uw has a question about this), S3

Dang, I don't have C6 in my FA.

T4: at nipples (I think of 4 Tits for T4.)

T10: umbilicus (pain referral for appendicitis)

S3: erection/sensation of penile and anal zone

 

[MudPhud20XX]

1. CD for PECAM-1?

2. CD for ICAM-1?

3. pathology associated with "pseudotumor cerebri?" vit A excess- give acetazolamide

4. pathology associated with avoidance of "fructose and galactose?" ? fructose intolerance. not sure

 

[BlueArc]

1. two examples that decreases TPR (total peripheral resistance)? AV shunt, exercise

2. effects of spinal anesthesia on venous return? decrease ? not sure

3. drug that is associated with "sense of impending doom?" adenosine

4. pathology associated with "regadenoson?" Coronary steal syndrome

 

[ShirleyXia]
