 1)Define Bone density,how it is measured?What are the causes,clinical features, diagnosis and management of Osteoporosis?






Bone density: It is a measure of the mineral content of bone .It is mostly calcium
It measures areal bone density (mineral/surface area).
It is usually measured by DEXA(Dual energy X-RAY absorptiometry).

Myxedema coma is a life-threatening medical emergency with a high mortality rate that develops as a complication of severe hypothyroidism.
Hallmarks: Decreased mentation, hypothermia.
Treatment: Hypothyroidism: Initial i.v dose of 200-400mcgT4,followed by daily i.v dose of 50-100mcg until oral dose is possible.Total serum T4 should increase by 2-4mcg/DL.
I.v T3 intially 5-20mcg,followed by 2.5-10mcg
every 8hours.




Treatment of Hypertension:
Beta-adrenergic antagonists:atenolol,Timolol
Maelate,betaxolol,labetalol.
Atenolol-Initial dose of 50mg po daily.

ACE Inhibitors:captopril,enalapril(20mg daily), Lisinopril.

Angiotensin receptor blockers:Losaratan(50-100mg daily),candesartan,valsartan.

Calcium channel blockers:Nifedipine(10-20mg TlD (or)QID,Verapamil.

Diuretics:
Thiazides:Hydrochlorothiazide,chlorthalidone.
Loop diuretics: Furosemide,bumetanide.
Potassium sparing diuretics:Amiloride,Triamterene.

Direct renin inhibitor:Aliskiren

Alpha adrenergic antagonists: Doxazosin,prazosin,terazocin.

Centrally acting adrenergic agonists:
Clonidine,methyldopa.

Direct acting vasodilators: Hydralazine, Minoxidil.

7)What are the causes, pathogenesis and differential diagnosis of ascites?





8) Approach to Acute pancreatitis?



Cullen's sign: Faint bluish discoloration around umbilicus.


Peripheral blood picture:

Bodies.
Treatment:

Maintenance dose:1,000mcg i.m every 3months for rest of patient's life.
Folate therapy:Oral dose of 5mg folate daily
for  3weeks and maintenance dose of 5mg
Once weekly.

5)Causes, diagnosis and treatment of atrial
Fibrillation?
Causes:
Cardiac:
Hypertensive heart disease
Valvular heart diseases(mitral stenosis)
Non cardiac:
Pneumonia,COPD, Pulmonary embolism,
Hyperthyroidism,Drugs and alcohol.

Diagnosis:
ECG Changes: No clear P waves,F waves.
Atrial rate:350-500bpm
Ventricular rate: irregularly irregular
2D Echo to look for LA Size,thrombus,LV Function.
Catheterization:Before ablation
Chest x-ray
Thyroid function tests and serum electrolytes.
Fasting lipid profile.







VSAQ'S:

9) Mention the differences between in findings between UMN and LMN lesion?

UMN LESION:

Weakness; voluntary movements are disturbed; distal predominant

Tone; hypertonia( claspknife spasticity)

*Reflex (tendon); increased,

*Reflex (superficial); absent or decreased

Plantar response; extensor

*Muscle atrophy; disuse

*Fasciculations ; absent

*Bilateral movements; spared

(Eyes,face,jaw,neck)

*Reaction of degeneration; absent

* Nerve conduction; normal

LMN LESION:

Weakness;  paralysis of muscles supplied by that segment or nerve proximalpredominant

Tone; hypotonia 

Reflex (tendon); decreased or absent

*Reflex (superficial); absent or decreased

Plantar response; flexor or absent

*Muscle atrophy; marked

*Fasciculations ; often present

*Bilateral movements; affected

(Eyes,face,jaw,neck)

*Reaction of degeneration; present

* Nerve conduction; abnormal
