29
What part of the long bone contains growth plates?

30
Why are children more prone to osteomyelitis than adults?
children have a richer blood supply (or is it the other way around? the pic makes me think it might be but I cannot tell from the wording...)
31
How is mature bone different than growing bone?
- epiphyseal plate stopped growing - metaphyseal vessels penetrate the cartilage plate - transverse bars of bone separate the growth plate from the metaphysis

OSTEOGENESIS IMPERFECTA ("brittle bone diseases“)
33
Briefly describe the collagen defects assc with each type of OI (I-IV)
I. make too little pro-α1(1) II. Pro-α1(1) is too short = collagen made but degraded intracellularly III. Triple helix doesn't form well IV. Pro-α2(1) is too short
34
in what type of OI are bones break in utero or during birth, killing the child
II = Pro-α1(1) is too short and collagen made but degraded intracellularly
35
In what type of OI do pts have normal statue, lax joints, and are hard of hearing?
type I = make too little pro-α1(1)
36
In what type of OI do pts have short stature and somewhat fragile bones?
type IV = Pro-α2(1) is too short
37
mode of inheritance for OI
autosomal dominant (type II may by AR or AD)
38
4 major clinical criteria for diagnosis of OI
2 of the following are needed for Dx: - osteoporosis - blue sclera - dentingenesis imperfecta (=abnl teeth) - premature otosclerosis (causes hearing loss)
39
characteristically associated with heritable disorders of connective tissue?
blue sclera OI \> pseudoxanthoma elasticum, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and Marfan disease \>\>\> iron deficiency, rheumatoid arthritis, or myasthenia gravis
40
What causes the blue discoloring of the sclera?
thinning of the sclera allows the underlying choroid to become visible
41
OI congenita vs OI tarda
congenita = is clinically severe, and survival beyond childhood is uncommon. tarda = much milder course, and patients may live to an advanced age.
42
Short extremities, normal trunk, large head, normal mentation
achondroplasia
43
What is the pathogenesis of achondroplasia

44
risk factor for new mutations leading to achondroplasia
advanced paternal age
45
Is sexuality or intelligence affected in achondroplasia
no
46
mode of inheritance for achondroplasia

50
pathogenesis of osteopetrosis

51
How is the bone different in osteopetrosis?
W - Woven bone occluding marrow I - Increased # of Irregular bony trabeculae B - Bulbous ends U - residual strips of Unremodeled cartilage M - lack of Meduallry canal/cavaties and trabeculaeor Marrow S - diffusely Sclerotic bone WI BUMS get osteoporosis from their cheese
52
NF-kB intracell signaling pathway activated by
RANKL binding RANKR to signal osteoclast differentiation
53
What is the definition of osteoporosis
1. low bone mass 2. microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue --\> leading to bone fragility and increased fracture risk
54
What the the common fracture sites in osteoporosis?

* Estrogen Deficiency * Calcium Intake \< 500 mg/d * Primary Hyperparathyroidism * Rheumatoid Arthritis * Bechterew Disease * Anticonvulsants * Hyperthyroidism * Diabetes Mellitus * Smoking * Alcohol Excess
57
What is the pathogenesis of osteoporosis?
reabsorbed cavity too large + newly formed packet of bone too small --\> formation does not match absorption + increased numbers of remodeling units = increased bone loss
58
How does menopause contribute to pathogeneis of osteoporosis?
decreased serum estrogen increased IL-1, 6, and TNF increased RANK expression --\> increased osteoclast activity
59
How does aging contribute to the pathogenesis of osteoporosis?
- decreased replication of osteoprogenitor cells - decreased synthetic activity of osteoblasts - decreased biologic activity of matrix bound growth factors - decreased physical activity
60
