Q 1 E the most Distinictive adverse effect of Both Cyclo n Doxo is CHF ( more Pronounced in Doxo)
Q 2 No Clue but Educated guess is A
Q 3 A This one is a Toughie but the AVM has only Mixed type n Clinically present as seizures
Q 4 A Guess again on Trisomy 18 or 13
Q 5 E Guess again

Just to be Sure Guys Plz DO NOT POST NBME QUESTIONS as they Tend to give us Biased result when we do them

2: rolling eyes

3: A ,because mytime and nnl said so grin

4: A ,guess it is trisomy 18

5: sad

1.A

2.D

3.A(Mytime....good going , dont take D .....says no history of hypertension)

Thanks KG.........but i hope they werent from UW , as everyone is planning to get them soon.

Rest anything else is more than welcomegrin


  #1008

hi guys,this is your good ol' Z with a new name and a new avatar (due to some mess-up with the old account). only mytime seemed to notice the difference with my old name. did u notice how my brain is getting enlightened with the little that i've been reading.......

anyway, here are my answers:

1. my first thoughts are with B. I haven't really read about cyclo causing CHF (i know doxo does), but cyclo causes hemorr. cystitis and doxo is a vesicant.

2. A (wild guess!!!)

3. no idea yetraised eyebrow

4. A

5. i thought that was easy and jumed to A, but then it doesn't say anywhere in the Qs that both parents are heterozygous, so i guess i have to go with E.

1.a

2.d its tukka will find ans n post

ok guys ans for 5th genetic question was so simple i kept thinking but now got things cleared i.e

frequency of each paetner X chances of giving allele--->0.1 x 0.1 X 0.25 =0.0025

gosh true simple things make us go mad mad

  #1012

mytime and Z good way of thinking butin the case what we asked is to find probabilty of child among population for this particular dis for which frequency is given to have dis..read no family h/o dis means both wud be hetro coz dis to be clinical need two recessive allele hope cleared to u if doubt ask...smiling face

i have few more interseting questions that cud fool us...will post after this discussion over...

  #1013

Both parents are heterozygous, posssible , I thot so too esp. with the child having it! It has to be true but they say no family history at least someone sud have it, an aunt or and auntie or someone dead..so i choose the last one...otherwise i was gonna go with that calculation!

Thanks KG!wink


  #1014

a quick n tukka bhari try frm me
1 A
2 C or D.. prefer D
3 A... had to google fr Charcot-Bouchard aneurysm
4 Seems like edwards but never tried to remember the lifespan
5 D.. i thought abt this long n hard to come up between D & E,.. explanation comin right up next

5.Tay-Sachs disease, an autosomal recessive disease caused by a
deficiency of hexosaminidase A, is lethal in childhood. In a
population of Ashkenazi Jews, blood testing shows the frequency
of heterozygotes to be 0.1. What is the probability that the
first child of two individuals from this population with no
family history of the disease will have Tay-Sachs?
A. 0.25
B. 0.11
C. 0.0625
D. 0.0025
E. Cannot be calculated from the information given


Ok.. here's my thought process fr this one....
1- Nowhere does it say that population is in H-W eqbm.. So forget abt trying A^2+2ab+b^2 = 1
2- That reduces it to a simple mathematical probability Q..

The net chances of any child having the disease are...
probability if child's parents r homozygous normal= P1
+
probability if child's parents r heterozygous= P2
+
probability if child's parents r homozygous diseased= P3

If both parents r old enuff to be parents.. they don't have tay sachs wink So not homozygous diseased So P3 = 0

If both parents r homozygous normal, probability fr child to be disease is nil So P1 = 0

So, net probability = if parents r hetrozygous. = P2 only in other words, P1+P2+P3 = P2 here

in this case... probability of child having disease=
Probability of 1 parent having heterozygous disease gene * probability of other parent having heterozygous disease gene * probability of the AR disease vertical transmission in heterozygous cases

= 0.1*0.1*.25
=0.0025
= choice D

PHEW!!! Hope i left no loop holesrolling eyes
