QuestionAnswer
Formed from the sacral plexus by the S2, S3 and. S4 nerve roots Pudental nerves
Carries both sensory and motor fibers, innervates the genitalia and the pelvic floor musculature? Pudental nerves
Somatic sensory and motor innervation to the genitals and the pelvic floor musculature, including levator ani muscle and external anal urethra sphincter? Pudental nerves
Distal termination of the spinal cord can cause saddle anesthesia, overflow incontinence, weakness or paralysis of the bilateral lower extremities? Conus medullaris
Arise from roots T11-L4, sympathetic innervation to portions of reproductive organs Hypogastric nerves
Responsible for emission of semen into the posterior urethra which is the stage of make ejaculation? Hypogastric nerves
Enteric nervous system between inner and outer layers of the muscularis externa Myenteric plexus
Absence of the plexus is responsible for Hirshsprung disease a congenital failure in the distal development of the? Myenteric plexus leads to bowel obstruction
Innervation to the rectum, bladder, and the genitalia, injury of the nerves causes loss of function of bladder and bowel under viscera? Pelvic nerves
Malignant plasma cell neoplasm presents with fatigue, weight loss, bone pain, hepatosplenomegaly, immune deficiency, anemia, hypercalcemia, renal dysfunction, hypergammaglobulinemia, lytic bone lesions. Multiple myeloma
Function by inducing apoptosis of neoplastic plasma cells as misfolded proteins, induction of chemotherapy should be monitored by tumor lysis syndrome Proteasome inhibitors
Proteasome inhibitor chemotherapeutic agents such as bortezomib, causes Toxic accumulation of intracellular proteins and APOPTOTIC factors
Proteasome inhibitors moa? Cytotoxic effects by decreasing protein degradation
Chemotherapeutic agents cyclophosphamide, melphalan, and platinum based agents function by Cross linking DNA, leading to increased genomic instability and induction of apoptosis
Pelvic parasympathetic nerves in the pelvic nerve plexus function to contract the bladder via? Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors
The sympathetic pelvic nerves control the function of the internal urethral sphincter relaxation via? Alpha-1 Adrenergic receptors leading to normal urination.
Damage to the pelvic nerve plexus can affect Both bladder contraction and internal urethral sphincter relaxation leading to OVERFLOW incontinence
Sympathetic fibers that release NE and results in relaxation of the DETRUSOR muscle and contraction of the urethral smooth muscle Hypogastric nerve (total incontinence)

Cognitive decline following a cerebral stroke(infarct). Vascular dementia
Pick disease also known as Frontotemporal dementia develops in the 50s
Presents with HTN, metabolic alkalosis, increased aldosterone renin ratio due to independent secretion of aldosterone, associated to adrenal adenoma or bilateral adrenal hyperplasia Primary hyperaldosteronism
Innate system initial response to body tissue injury and infection, released by mast cells and basophils. Leads to development of erythema(rubor) and edema (tumor). Histamine stimulated vasodilation
Familial hypercholesterolemia is caused by mutations in the LDL receptor gene, mutation of PCSK9 or APoB genes, decreased cholesterol in liver and increase serum cholesterol
Loss of bone mineralization and bone matrix with a normal mineral to matrix ratio is seen in Osteoporosis
Characterized by progressive loss of bone mineral density leading to decreased bone strength Osteoporosis
Subarticular bone plate exposure and hyperactive bone formation Osteoarthritis secondary to deterioration of articular cartilage
Monosodium irate crystal precipitation and synovial inflammation is characteristic of Gout
