Dermatitis and Eczema Flashcard Deck - 10 Cards
Flashcard 21: What conditions are most associated with genetic imprinting?
Answer: Prader-Willi syndrome and Angleman's syndrome
Flashcard 22: Does autosomal dominant inheritance typically skip generations?
Answer: Negative (No) :: Skip generation?
Extra: Autosomal dominant (AD) inheritance typically does not skip generations (vertical inheritance pattern).
Additional AD characteristics:
- Often involves defects in structural genes.
- Features pleiotropy and variable expressivity.
- Often has a later onset compared to autosomal recessive disorders.
Flashcard 23: What are the general characteristics of inheritance for Autosomal Recessive disorders?
Answer: Enzyme deficiencies, usually more severe, earlier onset, often skips generations.
Extra: General characteristics of Autosomal Recessive (AR) inheritance:
- Often involves enzyme deficiencies.
- Usually presents earlier in life.
- Clinically more severe than autosomal dominant counterparts.
- Horizontal transmission (skipping generations).
Flashcard 24: Is there male-to-male transmission in X-linked dominant inheritance?
Answer: No male-to-male transmission :: Can there be male-to-male transmission in X-linked dominant inheritance?
Extra: - In X-linked dominant inheritance, all daughters of affected males will be affected (they receive the X chromosome).
- No sons of affected males will be affected (they receive the Y chromosome).
- Consequently, there is no male-to-male transmission.
Flashcard 25: What effect might you expect to see in triplet repeat diseases over several generations?
Answer: genetic anticipation
Flashcard 26: anticipation (genetics)
Answer: increased severity or earlier onset of disease in successive generations
Flashcard 27: Give the stages of the cell cycle.
Answer: G0, G1, S phase, G2, mitosis
Flashcard 28: athetosis
Answer: slow "snake-like" twisting and writhing of limbs and fingers
Flashcard 29: Who is covered by Medicaid?
Answer: Low-income individuals (including children, pregnant women, parents/caregivers, seniors, and people with disabilities).
Flashcard 30: primary prevention (epidemiology)
Answer: prevent disease occurrence (e.g. HPV vaccination)
