final exam week 7 Flashcards
Common metastatic sites for tumors (and s/s)
Lung –> (2)
s/s-
Colon–> (1)
s/s
liver, bone, brain?
Lung bone, brain
Bone - pain
Brain – balance
Colon liver
Liver - Enzymes, bleeding
biologic substances (hormones, enzymes, antigens or genes) shed off of some tumors and are measurable
tumor markers
Certain malignancies are associated with cancer inducing viruses – HPV, HIV, Hep B, Hep C
For any virus to live and propagate – it must insert its genes into the host cell’s genome
The host cell then becomes a manufacturer of the virus
MOA – always involve the activation of growth-promoting pathways or inhibition of tumors suppressors in infected cells
Viral induced cancer
T/F
1. Early post menopausal years – women experience greatest bone loss and it Continues at gradual rate
2. Women have lower peak bone density
3. Women lose more bone mass compared to men over a lifetime
4. Women reach fracture threshold later then men = increased risk fracture
5. For women
Bone reabsorbed by osteo__lasts > bone formed by osteo__lasts = decreased bone mass
- T
- T
- T
- F - earlier
- Bone reabsorbed by osteoclasts > bone formed by osteoblasts = decreased bone mass
risk factors
- open fracture
- recent trauma
- DM
- Hemodialysis
- IV drug use
- Splenectomy

-Joint pain and other s/s present most of the time
Gout phases
Phase 1 – asymptomatic

- Later attacks get closer and closer
Phase 4 – chronic arthritis

_______ are cells that build bone tissue
________ are cells that break down bone tissue.
Osteoblasts
Osteoclasts
Risk factors of what cancer?

colorectal cancer
Carcinogen Classification
_________ - substances or agents that have been definitively linked to causing cancer in humans.
Examples include:
* Tobacco smoke
* Asbestos
* Alcohol
* Estrogen therapy
* Some viruses - HPV, HIV
________- substances or agents that are likely to cause cancer in humans, based on limited evidence.
Examples include:
* Women who work night shift
________ - substances or agents that may be carcinogenic to humans, but the evidence is not strong enough to classify them in another class.
Examples include:
* Engine exhaust
known
Probable
Possible
fracture complications: delayed healing
1. __________ - takes longer than expected to heal.
2. ________- fracture heals in an incorrect position or alignment.
3. _______ - no healing 4-6 months post fracture
malunion
delayed union
nonunion
- delayed union - takes longer than expected to heal.
- malunion - fracture heals in an incorrect position or alignment.
- nonunion - no healing 4-6 months post fracture
Osteoporosis patho
1. Increased bone resorption AKA osteo__last activity increased
2. Decreased bone formations AKA osteo__lasts activity decreased
3. Problems:
Failure to make new bone (osteo__lasts)
Too much bone resorption (osteo__lasts)
Both
Osteoporosis patho
1. Increased bone resorption AKA osteoclast activity increased
2. Decreased bone formations AKA osteoblasts activity decreased
3. Problems:
Failure to make new bone (osteoblasts)
Too much bone resorption (osteoclasts)
Both
Osteoclast – bone breakdown
Osteoblast – bone build
- Disorder involves inflammation of one or more joints and then becomes arthritis
Arthropathy
colorectal cancer - T/F
1. Colon cancer usually starts as a polyp, a tumorous mass that projects into the intestinal lumen
2. polyps can be malignant or benign
3. Starting at age 50, colonoscopy q 10 years
- T
- T
- T
which cancer
Etiology
- Cigarette smoking (promotor and cause)
- Passive smoke
- COPD – chronic inflammation makes mutation
- Asbestos – carcinogen
- Radon
- Arsenic
- Genetics
- other
lung
OA Etiology
- _______ applied to joint – weight bearing
- Degeneration of _______ – excessive load of healthy joint or normal loading of previously injured joint
- Chronic disease or acute flare?
OA Etiology
- Stress applied to joint – weight bearing
- Degeneration of cartilage – excessive load of helathy joint or normal loading of previously injured joint
- Chronic disease
cancer cells vs normal cells?
1. proliferation control
______ – zero population growth and apoptosis (normal death), so they have 1:1 ratio of cell death and birth = no population growth
______ – uncontrolled proliferation, sometimes cells are immortal, die unpredictably
2.proliferation rate
______– unpredictable (fast or slow), depends on differentiation
_____ – predictable
- self HLA antigens – how they determine something is self vs non-self
_____ – present themselves to immune system and are recognized as self
_____ – non-self markers, immune system may attack or sometimes they can avoid detection from immune system
