In the same hospital where the patient from the previous question is admitted, a pediatrician evaluates five children several hours after a meal rich in dietary fats. Each patient’s profile is shown below:  The child described in the previous question most likely corresponds to which patient profile?

Which structure(s) from question 17 inhibit(s) Glutamine-PRPP amidotransferase? Select ALL that apply

A researcher develops a mouse in which a nitrogen metabolism-associated enzyme is selectively eliminated from the perivenous region of the liver acinus. The periportal region remains completely normal, including normal expression of CPS-I and all urea cycle enzymes. After a protein-rich meal, blood leaving the liver is found to contain elevated ammonia concentrations despite normal periportal urea cycle activity. Which function of the liver acinus has been disrupted most directly and what enzyme(s) has/have been eliminated?

Which patient (A through E) in the previous question has a profile most consistent with a healthy child who is mobilizing stored fats normally after an overnight fast?

SIDE CAMERA: Your setup should resemble the example shown in the photo below with the green check mark. Both hands, keyboard, screen, and any permitted materials must also remain visible throughout the test.

If your patient cannot walk on the treadmill, your protocol is to complete reactive hyperemia. Which of the following is true about that procedure?

As you provide care to your patients, you are very conscientious about avoiding cross-contamination. What is the most effective infection control practice that you engage in?

During the last two quarters, your department has compared 86 internal carotid arteries evaluated by carotid duplex with angiography. The results: 70 vessels had a hemodynamically significant lesion documented by the noninvasive and invasive studies. 12 showed no evidence of hemodynamically significant lesion by either method. In 1 case, the noninvasive study was negative, but the angiogram documented a 70%-99% diameter reduction. In 3 cases, the noninvasive studies were consistent with a >50% diameter reduction, but the invasive study was read as normal. What is the negative predictive value of carotid duplex in your department?
