45. A 5-year-old girl with a history of recurrent infections since the age of 4 months is brought to the physician for a follow-up examination. She has had multiple episodes of pneumonia, sinusitis, otitis media, and diarrhea. She is at the 20th percentile for height and weight. Her temperature is 37.4°C (99.3°F). Mild crackles are heard bilaterally over the lower lung lobes. Laboratory studies show: Leukocyte count Segmented neutrophils Eosinophils 10,500/mm³ (N=5500-15,500) 57% 2% Lymphocytes 34% CD3+ T lymphocytes 67% CD19+ B lymphocytes 28% CD56+ natural killer cells 5% Monocytes 7% Serum IgA IgG IgM undetectable (N=14-159 mg/dL) 25 mg/dL (N=345-1236) 410 mg/dL (N=43-207) This patient most likely has an abnormality of which of the following immune system components? A) Activation-induced deaminase B) CD40 ligand OC) Class II MHC protein D) Common y chain of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor E) Recombination-activating gene 1 F) Terminal complement

113. A 10-month-old girl develops a cough and grunting following a 3-day hospital stay for surgical repair of a cleft palate. Her temperature is 39.2°C (102.6°F), and respirations are 40/min. Crackles are heard over most lung fields, and breath sounds are decreased. There is a mild pleural rub in the right upper thorax. Her leukocyte count is 68,000/mm³ (85% segmented neutrophils, 10% bands, and less than 5% myeloblasts, promyelocytes, and myelocytes). Which of the following mechanisms most likely caused the increased leukocyte count in this patient? A) Accelerated release of cells from the bone marrow postmitotic reserve pool B) Decreased margination and rolling of circulating cells C) Increased production of myeloblasts in the spleen D) Shift in bone marrow from eosinophil production to segmented neutrophil production E) Transformation of myeloid stem cells
A 50-year-old postmenopausal woman has emphysema. This lung disease impairs the ability to oxygenate the blood, so patients experience significant fatigue and shortness of breath. To alleviate these symptoms, oxygen is typically prescribed, and this patient has a portable oxygen tank she carries with her at all times, breathing through nasal cannulae. Before she began using oxygen, her red blood cell (RBC) count was 6.3 x 1012/L. After oxygen therapy for several months, her RBC count dropped to 4.0 x 1012/L. What physiologic response explains the elevation of the first RBC count? What hormone is responsible? How is its production stimulated? What is the major way in which it acts? What explains the decline in RBC count with oxygen therapy for this patient?
sickle cell disease and its variants are genetic disorders resulting from the presence of a mutated form of hemoglobin . propose a proper therapeutic strategy to ameliorate or cure this disease.
What is the most likely cause of the patient's condition? Explain how you arrived at this conclusion. What is the most likely causative agent? How did the patient contract the disease?
Which ONE of the following individuals is at greatest risk for developing acute myeloid leukaemia?Select one: A.A 31‐year‐old woman with Turner syndrome B.A 35‐year‐old man who was treated last year for stage I seminoma C.A 28‐year‐old man with Fanconi anaemia D.A 17‐year‐old man with common variable immunodeficiency
