A 24-year-old woman has had increasing malaise; facial skin lesions exacerbated by sunlight exposure; and arthralgias and myalgias for the past month. On physical examination she has mild pedal edema and erythematous malar rash. On auscultation, a friction rub is audible over the chest. Laboratory findings include pancytopenia and serum creatinine 3 mg/dL. Urinalysis shows hematuria and proteinuria. A serologic test for syphilis yields a false-positive result. A renal biopsy shows granular deposits of IgG and complement in the mesangium and along the basement membrane. Which of the following mechanisms is most likely involved in the pathogenesis of her disease? Antiphospholipid antibodies Defective clearance of apoptotic nuclei Increased production of IFN-γ Molecular mimicry Explanation: Defective clearance of apoptotic nuclei This young woman has a classic picture of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)—the erythematous malar facial skin rash, and renal failure with proteinuria and hematuria from immune complex deposition in the glomeruli. A fundamental defect in SLE is the failure of mechanisms that maintain self-tolerance. Defective clearance and hence increased burden of nuclear apoptotic bodies leading to formation of increased quantities and immunogenic forms of nucleic acids, their accompanying proteins and other self-antigens is considered as the main mechanism that underlies SLE. This finally gives rise to the pathogenic DNA–anti-DNA immune complexes, as measured by the antinuclear antibody test. Antiphospholipid antibodies may be present with SLE but lead to coagulopathy. IFN-γ is a product of CD4+ T cells and NK cells. There is no evidence of delayed hypersensitivity or NK cell dysfunction in SLE. Molecular mimicry occurs when a microbial antigen cross-reacts with normal tissue, as in rheumatic fever. Widespread and nonspecific activation of T cells by superantigen occurs in toxic shock syndrome.

Digital Therapeutics Market : Rising focus on Preventative Healthcare Download PDF Brochure :-https://lnkd.in/dthb84d8 Primary preventive measures can help prevent or arrest the disease in its earliest stages by promoting healthier lifestyles or immunizing against infectious diseases. Many leading causes of death and disability can be prevented with adequate measures. There is a growing consensus among policymakers, providers, and patients that preventive, behavioral, and lifestyle changes are effective pills or procedures. In the US, chronic conditions account for ~75% of the USD 3.5-trillion annual healthcare spending (Source: chronicdisease.org and the CMS, 2019). However, these chronic diseases are largely preventable. Government legislation and initiatives, such as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) (2010), aim at making preventive care affordable and accessible. Owing to the Act, programs incentivizing preventive treatment options are becoming popular. The global digital therapeutics market in terms of revenue was estimated to be worth $6.1 billion in 2023 and is poised to reach $21.9 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 29.1% from 2023 to 2028.

Laboratory investigation of a patient with precocious puberty was found to have suppressed LH concentrations, and elevated testosterone but without increased 17α-hydroxyprogesterone or DHEAS. What is the next step in management? Careful evaluation of the testis by palpation and ultrasound to exclude a Leydig cell neoplasm. Adrenal tumours should be excluded by obtaining a CT scan of the adrenal glands. Suggest the possibility of Congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Rule out CNS causes of precocious puberty. Explanation: Patients with elevated testosterone but without increased 17α-hydroxyprogesterone or DHEAS should undergo careful evaluation of the testis by palpation and ultrasound to exclude a Leydig cell neoplasm. Patients with high testosterone but suppressed LH concentrations have gonadotropin-independent sexual precocity; in these patients, DHEA sulfate (DHEAS) and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone should be measured. High levels of testosterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone suggest the possibility of CAH due to 21α-hydroxylase or 11β-hydroxylase deficiency. If testosterone and DHEAS are elevated, adrenal tumours should be excluded by obtaining a CT scan of the adrenal glands. Activating mutations of the LH receptor should be considered in children with gonadotropin-independent precocious puberty in whom CAH, androgen abuse, and adrenal and testicular neoplasms have been excluded.

When should a diabetic patient be screened for diabetic retinopathy? Every 2 years for both T1D and T2D patients Every 5 years for T1D patients and every 2 years for T2D patients Every year for T1D patients and every 2 years for T2D patients Every year for both T1D and T2D patients Explanation: Every year for T1D patients and every 2 years for T2D patients Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the eyes. Regular screening is crucial to detect and manage this condition. For patients with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), annual screening is recommended due to the higher risk and early onset of diabetic retinopathy. On the other hand, for patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), screening every 2 years is recommended unless additional risk factors are present, such as a history of retinopathy or poor glycemic control, which may require more frequent screenings. Regular eye examinations are essential to identify any signs of diabetic retinopathy and initiate timely treatment to prevent vision loss.
