what is the biomarker of CABF?
CKMB and troponin
atrothy?

silica, duct, or C in lungs; black lung disease
plumbism?
lead poisoning
argyria?
silver poisoning
dysttrophic calcification?
normal Ca levels in dead/dying tissue
metastatic calcification?
in normal tissues with hypercalcemia in blood
autolysis?
when enzymes are derived from cells themselves
herterolysis?
when enzymes are derived from lysosomes or other inflammatory cells
what are the 3 types of nuclear change?
karyolysis, pyknosis, karyorrhexis
what is karyolysis?
chromatin dissolves due to DNAse activity
pyknosis?
nucleus shrinks
karyorrhexis?
nucleus breaks into fragments
5 types of necrosis?
coagulative, liquefactive, gangrenous, caseous, fat
coagulative necrosis? give an example
denaturation of proteins; myocardial infarction
liquefactive necrosis? give an example
enzymes digest cell; bacterial and fungal infections
gangrenous necrosis? give an example
form of coagulative thats wet; diabetes
caseous necrosis? give an example
cheesy white within granulomatous tissue; TB
fat necrosis? give an example
chalky white; pancreatitis
2 components of acute inflammation?
vascular changes and cellular events
chemotaxis?
WBC attracted to injury
opsonins?
serum proteins that recognize and attach to foreign particles
4 types of inflammatory cells?
neutrophils, macrohpages, lymphocytes, eosinophils
histamine?
in mast cells, cause arteriolar dilation
serotonin?
in platelets, released during platelet aggregation
neuropeptides?
transmit pain signals
interleukin 1 and TNF?
produced by macrophages, leads to fever, lethargy, and cachexia
acute inflammation outcomes?
resolution, tissue destruction/fibrosis, chronic inflammation
granulomatous inflammation?
wall off inert foreign objects
atelectasis?
collapse
fibrinous inflammation?
bread and butter appearance
suppurative (purulent) inflammation?
contains pus like in abscesses
ulceration?
epithelial surface erodes like in ulcers
necrotizing/gangrenous inflammation?
black, bacterial
normal WBC count?
4,000-10,000 cells/microL
leukocytosis WBC count?
15,000-20,000 cells/microliter
neutrophilia?
inc. polymorphonuclear cells usually in bacterial infections
lymphocytosis?
inc. lumphocytes in mono, mumps, rubella
leukopenia?
dec WBC in viral infections like rickettsia, protozoan infections, typhoid
parenchymal cells?
cells doing function
stroma cells?
cells in structure
3 types of proliferative cells?
liable cells, stable cells, permanent cells
liable cells?
from stem cells, continuously divide, in oral cavity and vagina
stable cells?
normally dormant but divide in response to injury, in liver
permanent cells?
terminally differentiated, neurons and cardiac cells
primary union/1st intention healing?
occurs in surgical incisions like sutures
secondary union/2nd intention healing?
when tissue loss is extensive like ulcers
3 hemodynamic disorders?
thrombosis, embolism, and hemorrhage
edema?
abnormal accumulation of fluid in interstitial space; named at site of collection like hydrophorax, hydroperitoneum
causes of edema?
inc hydrostatic pressure, inc capillary permeability, lymphatic blockage, dec osmotic pressure, in sodium retention
transudate?
low protein, noninflammatory edema fluid, from intravascular or osmotic pressure, specific gravity <1.012`
exudate?
high protein, inflammatory edema fluid, vascular permeability, many WBC, specific gravity >1.012
hematoma?
hemorrhage enclosed within a tissue
pinpoint/petichae?
1-2mm hemorrhage on skin ex: platelet disorders or clotting factor deficiencies
purpura?
3-5mm hemorrhages ex: trauma
ecchymosis?
1-2cm hemorrhages
jaundice?
large amounts of RBC degraded
thrombosis?
localized blood clot that interrupts blood flow predisposed by polycythemia, oral contraceptives, smoking
intrinsic pathway measured by?
partial thromboplastin time (PTT)
extrinsic pathway measured by?
prothrombin time (PT)
PTT?
28-35 sec clotting time, monitors efficacy of heparin
PT?
11-13 sec clotting time, expressed in INR, monitors efficacy of coumadin
what is the fate of the thrombus?
propagation, embolism, dissolution, organization/recanclization
pulmonary thromboembolism?
begins at great saphenous vein in leg and goes to inferior vena cava then to lungs
paradoxical emboli?
begins in venous circulation but gains access to arteriolar circulation through patent foramen ovale or atrial septal defect
infarction?
necrosis due to ischemia

anemic and hemorrhagic
anemic infarct?
white, occurs in heart, spleen, kidney
hemorrhagic infarct?
red, occurs in lungs, GI tract
