Chat transcript - Anatomy (Embryo and Histo)

20:04:16 [Step_1] just got a message from Rox saying her internet is down, but she will try to join us next time

20:04:37 [Brams] Hello everybody...Hi Step 1..

20:04:53 ash enters this room

20:04:55 [Step_1] blake, you might want to pick brighter color from rainbow on right, hard to see text

20:05:09 [ash] hi everyone

20:05:14 [hutals] hey brams and ash

20:05:16 [BlakeH] ok

20:05:31 [Brams] Hi hutals..

20:05:42 [ash] i didnt have time to read gross anat

20:06:20 [Step_1] actually, i think gross is friday. tonight is embryo and histo

20:06:31 [ash] can we start with embryology and histology?

20:06:59 [ash] oh good.but in the timetable half of gross was today

20:07:02 [hutals] everyone is at different times, for my eligibility starts in september

20:07:30 [BlakeH] im takin it in November

20:07:37 [ash] my eligibility starts in october

20:07:51 [Step_1] ok, lets get started with embryo

20:07:56 [BlakeH] ok

20:08:01 [kmonica26] are U guys following Kaplan for anatomy too

20:08:04 [ash] ok

20:08:36 [Step_1] yes, pretty much following kap lan for most subjects except for path which will be gol jan

20:08:56 [BlakeH] lets start

20:08:59 [Step_1] whats the most common site of ectopic pregnancy?

20:09:04 [kmonica26] thanks fro the info

20:09:16 [BlakeH] ampulla

20:09:24 [ash] child born with deformed limbs,wrinkly skin ,abn. facies.amniotic fluid level at midpregnancy was 400 ml.diagnosis?

20:09:27 [Brams] Step 1 if we memorise Kaplan

20:09:27 [crusher] ampula of follapian tube

20:09:37 [ash] ampulla

20:09:48 [Brams] yes ampulla

20:09:52 [BlakeH] Potter???

20:10:00 [Step_1] try not to type things like kap lan, amaxon, golijan, etc or links will show up

20:10:44 [Brams] okie..

20:10:54 [ash] sorry got booted

20:11:10 [Step_1] uterine tube is the most common for ECTOPIC pregnancy, not for implantation

20:11:12 [crusher] potter ..anbonarmality in kidney function dec amniotic flui

20:11:14 [ash] has anyone answered my question?

20:11:28 Perudoc enters this room

20:11:35 [ash] right crusher

20:11:37 [BlakeH] Layer of origin of the parotid Gland????

20:11:44 [Step_1] most common site of implantation is the superior body of uterus

20:11:45 [Brams] Which gene encodes for TDF??

20:11:55 [ash] what is cyclopia?

20:12:16 [ash] blake endoderm

20:12:29 [BlakeH] Nope

20:12:37 [BlakeH] Ectoderm

20:12:38 [ash] full form of tdf?

20:12:47 [ash] oh

20:12:51 [BlakeH] submandibular and sublingual are endoderm

20:12:52 [kmonica26] ectoderm

20:13:01 [kmonica26] for parotid

20:13:08 [Brams] Testes Determining Factor ash

20:13:32 [kmonica26] sry gene

20:13:57 [Step_1] agree, parotid is ectoderm

20:14:03 [BlakeH] Yolk sac derivatives????

20:14:04 [ash] sry gene

20:14:09 [Brams] agree..

20:17:51 [Step_1] Roxanita wrote me a PM from library saying her internet was down and couldnt make it, but will be here on fridays chat

20:17:54 [ash] tof is causded by skewed deviation of neural crest cells

20:17:57 [crusher] asd..vasd..pda

20:18:09 [ash] as they form aorticopulm. septum

20:18:25 [BlakeH] TOF is a cause of displacement of aorticopulmonar septum

20:18:30 [BlakeH] exactly

20:18:54 [BlakeH] RVH is not a defect per se is more like a consequence

20:19:06 [Step_1] Tetralogy of Fallot, Transposition of the great vessels, Truncus arteriosus, Hypoplastic left heart syndrome, Tricuspid atresia....for cyanotic congential heart diseases

20:19:38 [ash] what is caused by nonspiral development of aortico pulm septum?

20:20:02 [BlakeH] Transposition of the great vessels

20:20:04 [Brams] Truncous arteriosus

20:20:27 [ash] right blake

20:20:40 [ash] what is cyclopia?

20:20:48 [BlakeH] Truncous arteriosus is absence of the septum

20:21:00 [BlakeH] cyclopia =one eye

20:21:08 [ash] due to?

20:21:10 [BlakeH] dont know the cause

20:21:27 [Brams] yep you r right thanks blake

20:21:49 [ash] failure of median cerebral structures to develop

20:23:21 [ash] brams i dont understand what you want.can you please repeat?

20:23:50 [BlakeH] yep like ASD and PDA more often

20:24:03 [Brams] I mean to say why Cyclopia is called as one eye??

20:24:11 [BlakeH] what u give to keep PDA patent????

20:24:31 [ash] cyclops is a character with 1 eye

20:24:40 [kmonica26] PG

20:24:45 [ash] i think in greek mythology

22:24:34 [BlakeH] posterior to the SCM

22:24:38 [Hmmmmmm] i think it was thyroglossal

22:24:40 [BlakeH] u too

22:24:57 [Step_1] what was the question?

22:24:58 [BlakeH] its usually ant

22:25:33 [BlakeH] a kid wit a mass that contain fluid post to the scm

22:25:33 [Hmmmmmm] step1 can u ans this one

22:25:34 [Hmmmmmm] A 35-year-old woman at 18 weeks' gestation has an increased serum á-fetoprotein concentration. Which of the following has the greatest influence in determining the predictive value of this test for neural tube defects?

22:25:39 [Hmmmmmm] A) Concentration of á-fetoprotein in maternal serum

22:25:48 [Hmmmmmm] B) Maternal history of monozygotic twin pregnancies

22:25:56 [Hmmmmmm] C) Prevalence of neural tube defects in the population in question

22:26:01 [Hmmmmmm] D) Sensitivity of the test

22:26:07 [Hmmmmmm] E) Specificity of the test

22:26:15 [Step_1] ant border of sternocledomastoid is pharyngeal fistula....but i didnt see the question

22:26:37 [BlakeH] A full-term male neonate is born with a 4x4-cm mass posterior to the right sternocleidomastoid muscle. Delivery was uncomplicated and Apgar scores were 9 and 9 at 1 and 5 minutes, respectively. The mass is unilocular and filled with watery fluid; no other abnormalities are present. The most likely

22:26:43 [Hmmmmmm] and can u also ans this one please

22:26:44 [Hmmmmmm] http://www.valuemd.com/viewtopic.php?t=24039

22:26:54 [BlakeH] A ) branchial cyst

22:27:15 [BlakeH] B ) cystic hygroma

22:27:24 [BlakeH] C ) preauricular sinus

22:27:34 [BlakeH] D ) thyroglossal duct cyst

22:27:42 [BlakeH] E ) Zenker's diverticulum

22:27:59 [Step_1] 1st one asks about PPV which is all the positives, so can't be determined by sensitivity or specificity alone

22:28:09 [Hmmmmmm] blake the reason i thought thryoglosssal is cuz the kids newborn...

22:28:28 [Step_1] i think i would guess a, conc of AFP??

22:28:39 [BlakeH] but they usually folow the midline

22:28:49 [Brams] yeah but thyrogolossol is midline

22:28:52 [Hmmmmmm] thats what i thought......cuz prevalance has no influence rite step1?

22:29:01 [Brams] even I would go for A

22:29:30 [BlakeH] wit no other choice left A

22:29:43 [BlakeH] never heard of a hygroma

22:30:01 [Hmmmmmm] its basically carvenous lymph veseels blake

22:30:08 [Step_1] thyroglossal cyst or fistula is found along the mgratory path of thyroid gland.....this specifically mentions stenocleidomastoid, but says post instead of ant....tough call

22:30:10 [BlakeH] ok

22:30:21 [BlakeH] hehehhehe

22:30:25 [BlakeH] i know

22:30:37 [Hmmmmmm] dam

22:30:56 [BlakeH]

22:31:08 [Hmmmmmm] blake can u tell me bout branchial cysts please?

22:31:21 [Step_1] think i'd go with thyroglossal duct because pharyngeal isnt even a choice??

22:31:55 [Brams] alsThe composition of the cyst is thick mucous material , here it says watery fluid

22:32:06 [Hmmmmmm] could it be cystic hygroma thought????

22:32:15 [Hmmmmmm] cuz lymph is water

22:32:35 [BlakeH] branchial cist is a defect in the grooves

22:32:44 [Hmmmmmm] oh ok now iremembre thank

22:33:07 [BlakeH] Second Pharyngeal arch doesnt grow enuf to obliterate the grooves

22:33:42 [Step_1] i'm gonna have to look that one up to be sure

22:33:50 [BlakeH] only impt groove is the First= External auditive C

22:37:13 [Hmmmmmm] D) Migration of conceptus

22:37:21 [Brams] okie thanks you all guys, shall see you all on Friday. thanks a lott

22:37:30 [Hmmmmmm] i think its implantation too..cuz u need cilia to move the oocytes

22:37:52 [Hmmmmmm] but then again u cant even get firtilization in the first place

22:37:58 [BlakeH] if the oocyte woulda been fecuded it woulda end in ectopic

22:38:52 [Hmmmmmm] and i dunno what conceptus is

22:39:07 [BlakeH] i think is the product of fecundation

22:39:20 [BlakeH] cygote

22:39:22 [Step_1] thanks everyone for great chat.....good night and see you on fri...or in forum before that
