Mary’s young son Jesse has had a difficult first year. His first few months after birth were relatively stress free. He grew and gained weight normally. Unfortunately, over the last several weeks, all the members of Jesse’s family have had an intestinal virus that included vomiting and diarrhea. Jesse also had diarrhea and vomiting. One night Jesse woke the entire family with sudden loud crying. When Mary went to check on him, his legs were drawn up against his chest and he clearly demonstrated significant abdominal pain. The pain eventually passed but came back in the morning. That morning, Mary noticed that Jesse’s stool was bloody and appeared to have some mucus in it. Jesse appeared pale, sluggish, sweaty, and had a fever. Mary took Jesse to the emergency room where radiography showed a telescoped intestine. This is called intussusception of the colon. Include references below.

- Fred has been experiencing recurring episodes of heartburn, especially when he bends over to lace his shoes or when he lies down in bed. His physician believes Fred may have a hiatal hernia. To confirm this diagnosis, she has scheduled Fred for a “barium swallow.” In this test, a barium-containing fluid that blocks x-rays is swallowed so that the stomach appears as a bright mass in a radiograph. If Fred has a hiatal hernia, what should the radiologist see on the radiograph? Can you explain what caused the symptoms that brought Fred in to see his physician?arrow_forwardHandover: Mr Eddie Baker is 31 years old. He was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease in his early 20s. Since then, the disease process has become extensive, affecting most of his terminal ileum and ascending colon. He has experienced some severe exacerbations which have required hospitalisation. He has used most of the pharmacotherapies available, including immunosuppressive medications and corticosteroid therapy for acute exacerbations. Recently, after a colonoscopy showed progression of the disease to other sections of his large bowel, he made the decision to undergo a total colectomy to better manage his condition. His initial surgery was booked for yesterday at 1000. He last ate at 1930 the night before his surgery and last drank at a black weak tea at 0600 the morning of surgery. Due to an emergency Eddie’s operation was delayed until the afternoon. The surgical team were happy with the operation and reported minimal blood loss. Eddie returned to the ward at 1900 last night.

She then says, "This heartburn is getting worse. You notice on inspection that her face is drenched with perspiration and she's even more diaphoretic.

His mother has just brought him into the emergency room from the family beach house, where they have been spending the summer, because he has had a seizure. X-rays indicate that the toddler is suffering from rickets, which is a result of a nutritional deficiency of Vitamin D. But his mother insists that her son's diet is not Vitamin D-deficient. He drinks three glasses of milk a day, and his diet also includes meat and eggs. A simplified scheme of Vitamin D metabolism is shown in the figure attached. The chemical name of active Vitamin D is 1a, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, and it is synthesized via the pathway shown. Catalysts, both in the form of enzymes and ultraviolet light, are required for Vitamin D synthesis. The two main sources of active Vitamin D are diet and sunlight. Food supplemented with "Vitamin D" usually contains…arrow_forwardJohn is a 3-year-old boy who is brought to his pediatrician today by his mother who is concerned because “I was giving him a bath a couple of nights ago and felt a weird lump on his belly.

He’s had two normal bowel movements in the last couple of days.” His mother also reports that she “thought his urine looked a little bit strange, like it was a little bit pink the other day.” N.S. appears healthy and happy; he is playing with toys in the exam room. Select a potential diagnosis for John and describe the pathophysiology of that diagnosis. How does the pathophysiology explain John's symptoms?arrow_forward
