A 25-year-old young male patient comes into your endocrinology clinic with complaints of chronic headache and diminished vision in his left eye. Your general physical examination on him was found to be normal, with his thyroid at a normal size. When you did a thorough eye examination, it revealed that his visual sharpness in his right eye was 6/6, but in his left eye it was 9/36. There was no mass or tumor seen directly on his eyes, including his left eye. You next test for some hormones to see if there is an endocrine source to his symptoms and get the following results: Prolactin (PRL) Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Corticotropin-Releasing Hormnone (CRH) Growth Hormone (GH) RESULT 180 ng/ml 1.2 mUA 1.5 pmol 2 ng/mL NORMAL RANGE 4.6-21.4 ng/ml 0.4 4 mUA 0.77-2.5 pmo/I 0.4-10 ng/mL 1) Based on the additional information above, what is your initial and primary suspected diagnosis? 2) What additional tests would you want to run? Would you want to know anything more from his medical…
8:18 1 of 2 < "My Brother Calls Me 'Bug s"": A Case Study on the Endocrine System Nineteen-year-old Krista waited impatiently as Dr. Weisman scribbled in his chart. She hoped he was scribbling an explanation of what was wrong with her. She was tired of not feeling like herself and tired of being so stressed about it. She was particularly tired of how her eyes seemed to bulge outward, so much that her 10-year-old brother had started calling her "Bug Eyes." Dr. Weisman finally put down his pen and looked at Krista. "Well, your blood pressure and pulse are elevated. You've lost weight without trying, you have difficulty sleeping, you perspire more than usual and you've had continuing bouts of diarrhea. Those things, combined with the swelling in the front of your neck, suggest that you may be suffering from more than the stress of college life. I think we need to run some blood tests to check your thyroid function." Krista blinked in surprise. "All of those things can be caused by a…
Mrs. Jackson, who suffers from seizures, has been stable on a phenytoin dose of 300 mg q.d. (qd or QD) for over a year. However, she has recently been experiencing periods of heartburn. When you ask her more about this, you find there are no red-flag symptoms. She has tried OTC antacids in the past, but did not like them. Instead, she has seen Nexium tablets advertised and wants to know if they would be suitable. Is this an appropriate choice of OTC treatment? Explain in detail and based on scientific reasoning.

What was the unexpected result that Judah Folkman often observed when he removed a patient’s primary tumor and how did Folkman’s observation help to spark the idea of anti-angiogenesis as a therapy?
You are the laboratory manager. The hospital administration wants to penetrate the market and expand the business by performing Parathyroid Surgeries (reimbursement $15,000). They have enticed a prominent surgeon to join the staff He plans on scheduling four surgeries per week - two on Tuesday and two on Thursdays. Every case will need on intact Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) performed STAT during surgery. You currently send this test to your reference laboratory with a minimum 24-hour TAT. None of the analyzers currently in your lab are capable of running this test. The best pricing you obtain is from Siemens Diagnostics for an Immulite 1000. The price of the analyzer is $75,000. The price of the test kit is $800 for 100 tests. The test requires three levels of controls run per 24 hours. The stability of the test kit once opened is eight weeks. Reimbursement for the test is $20. You realize that you will only be able to run on average 32 tests (patient reportable results) before discarding…

A specimen presents an endocrine system organ covered with capsule made of connective tissue. Septa branch off from the capsule inwards and divide the organ into lobules. Each lobule consists of two cell types: neurosecretory pinealocytes (polygonal cells with processes) located in the center and gliacytes (astrocytes) located at the periphery. What organ is represented in this specimen? O Adrenal medulla Epiphysis Thyroid gland Pituitary gland O Hypothalamus
Dr. Ryan, Dr. Shapiro, and Dr. Lakey are pioneers in an islet transplant program at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. The Edmonton Protocol is a transplant procedure developed by them where donor islet cells are transplanted into the pancreas of Type 1 diabetic patients in combination with a glucocorticoid free immunosuppressive regimen. One year after transplant, none of the patients had returned to requiring insulin injections. Select the FOUR statements below that describe a patient who does not require insulin injections (insulin independent). Beta cells secrete insulin in response to increased blood glucose levels. Beta cells secrete insulin in response to decreased blood glucose levels. Urine samples indicate high levels of glucose. Urine samples indicate no glucose. Muscle, liver cells, and adipose tissue are permeable to glucose. Muscle, liver, cells and adipose tissue are impermeable to glucose. Water excretion is normal. Extra water is excreted.
A 10-week-old child was admitted to hospital suffering from a salt wasting crisis. Ultrasound scans of the patient's adrenal glands revealed they were enlarged but all other major organs appeared to be within normal parameters. Although the child appeared phenotypically female, karyotyping showed the child to be 46XY. Additional testing showed an accumulation of cholesterol esters in the adrenal glands, and it was also noted that the concentrations of ∆4-androstenedione were barely detectable. Genetic analysis of all the enzymes involved in steroid biosynthesis did not detect any detrimental mutations affecting their functionality. Treatment included glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid administration. QUESTION: State which protein is the most likely to be deficient in this scenario and briefly explain your rationale.
Hydrocortisone is an over-the-counter ointment commonly used to treat eczema. Eczema is a skin condition where a patch of skin becomes irritated and inflamed.

Which of the following statements describes why hydrocortisone is an effective treatment for eczema? Select one: a. Hydrocortisone helps to fight off the skin infection by increasing the immune response. b. Hydrocortisone helps to suppress the skin inflammation by decreasing the immune response. c. Hydrocortisone helps to suppress the skin inflammation by increasing the immune response. d. Hydrocortisone helps to fight off the skin infection by decreasing the immune response.
