How does trasnferrin & Iron deficieny relate - ✔✔Its
concentration increaseed in iron deficiency anemia in an attempt
to bind and transport as much iron as possible
What form is iron when in Hemoglobin - ✔✔Ferrous form
Anticonvulsant drugs? Which seizures do they control: -
✔✔Phenobarbital,treats both grand mal and complex partial
seizures. Phenytoin correct grand mal seizures commonly called
dilantin
Drugs used for Manic depression? - ✔✔Lithium
,List the cardiac glycosides how they work. - ✔✔Digoxin is the
major cardiac glyoside and alters the force of concentration
through its effects on ATP
Carbon monoxide is toxic why? - ✔✔250 times greater affinity for
hemoglobin than oxygen
Define therapeutic drug range - ✔✔Range of concentrations
where the drug is effective, not toxic
Bioavailability of a drug is - ✔✔is the amount of drug that is
absorbed into the system aand available for distribution.
How are serum drug concentration organized -
✔✔Liberation,absorption,distribution, metabolism, and excetion
Half life of a drug - ✔✔is the time required for one-half of an
administered drug to be lost through metabolism and elimination;
different for each drug
HcG used to test for - ✔✔Pregnancy or it can be elevated in
testicular tumors
,AFP used to test for - ✔✔AFP levels greater than 100ug/L are
indicative of cancer. AFP is particularly useful for determininng
prognosis and in the monitoring of therapy for hepatocellular
carcinoma.
CEA used to test for - ✔✔Is useful in monitoring breast, lung,
gastric, and pancreatic carcinoma.
What is an oncogene - ✔✔are mutated normal cellular genes
that cause the malignant transformation of normal cells when
activated
List the hormones synthesized in the hypothalamus -
✔✔Thyrotropin releasing hormone; hypothalamic hormonnes are
typically releasing hormones that affect protein hormones in the
adenohypophysis
What is adenohypophysis - ✔✔anterior pituitary: the anterior lobe
of the pituitary body; primarily glandular in nature
What does adenohypophysis do - ✔✔synthesizes hormones
such as GH (growth hormone)
, What are the differences with primary, secondary and tertiary
levels of endocrine dysfunction - ✔✔Target gland, pituitary,
hypothalamus
What does cortisol do? - ✔✔Is the feedback hormone for ACTH
essential for keeping hormone levels in control
What hormones are produced by the pituitary? -
✔✔LH,FSH,TSH, ACTH, GH, Prolactin
What hormones are produced by the thyroid gland - ✔✔T3, T4
What is amenorrhea - ✔✔absence of menstruation (6mths or
more)
What is the difference betwween primary & secondary
hypothyroidism - ✔✔Primary hypothyroidism is caused by a
failure of the thyroid itself. Secondary hypothyroidism is caused
by the failure of the pituitary gland. If the pituitary gland stops
working, it no longer regulates the thyroid.
What are the signs and symptoms of primary & secondary
hypothyroidism - ✔✔Early symptoms can include exhaustion,
