Measles

18
Q

cells is seen in?

A

Measles

19
Q

A

giant cell pneumonia

20
Q

T or F? Koplik spots follows the measles rash by 1–2

days.

A

F, it precedes it

21
Q

What path can occur years later after Measles infection?

A

subacute sclerosing panencephalitis,

22
Q

H. influenza virus contain 2 types of antigens called? .

A

hemagglutinin

neuraminidase

23
Q

H. influenza virus antigens: hemagglutinin promotes —- and

neuraminidase promotes —- .

A

viral entry

progeny virion release

24
Q

How does H. influenza v. cause a drift?

A

An antigenic drift causes changes based on random mutation in hemagglutinin or neuraminidase genes.

25
Q

How does H. influenza v. cause pandemics?

A

Reassorts it’s viral genome segments, such as when segments of human flu A virus reassort with swine flu A
virus.

26
Q

which 2 viral infections can predispose pt to superinfections?

A

H. influenza v., HBV (p166)

27
Q

A “blueberry muffin” appearance with congenital rubella findings is indicative of?

A

extramedullary hematopoiesis

28
Q

30 year old male remembers acquiring aseptic meningitis as a child, which might be related to his infertility. what is the causal virus?

A
Mumps virus (maybe do to Orchitis: inflammation
of testes),
29
Q

Why is H. influenza Live attenuated vaccine administered intranasally?

A

Because it contains temperature sensitive
mutant that replicates in the nose but
not in the lung

30
Q

Paramyxoviruses contain ——— , which

causes respiratory epithelial cells to fuse and form multinucleated cells.

A

surface F (fusion) protein

31
