So, have a look. The first question in the clinical case these birth buzzwords will describe um will be described which will help you to reach the diagnos instantly like vomiting then along with their oil drop catact lethargy plus hypotonia in a breastfed infant. So what can be the diagnosis? So take your time 1 2 3 minutes think what can be these clinical features suggesting you of so yes it is the galactosemia.
So the oil drop catact this is a classical feature seen with this galactosemia. So it is kind of a disease which is seen in the infants usually due to deficiency of the galput enzyme. A very very important topic asked from the biochemistry. Then moving down to the next question. So a child with fatigue, bleeding gums, joint pain, peticle hemorrhage and poor wound healing. So whenever you see this combination of words given in the clinical case, think in terms of vitamin C deficiency. So it is also called as a ascorbic acid. So vitamin C helps in uh plays an important role in formation of the uh collagen and connective tissue. So that is why whenever there's vitamin C deficiency, you can see poor wound healing and bleeding gums. So these are the classical features you can see with the vitamin C deficiency. Moving on to the third question.
Again a vitamin deficiency question is asked in the exam. So vitamins I will tell you are a must must must know topic like high yield definitely you will score three to four marks from these vitamin and the deficiencies. So I have made it easier for you so that in the exam you will not be wasting much time on the questions asked. So the third question have a look confusion plus tingling sensation plus polished rice eat eater or the polished rice diet.
What is the deficiency? So this is seen in case of the vitamin B1 deficiency which is also called as thamine. So those who are ex exclusively rice eaters in them it can be seen. Okay. So these are the various features like confusion and tingling sensations. So in chronic alcoholics it is associated with the vernicus encphylopathy. So this can also be described in the clinical case.
Moving on to the next question to features like zeroothelmia and bot spot can be described suggesting of which vitamin deficiency. So whenever you see this bot spot you need to answer it as the vitamin A deficiency because the vitamin A plays an important role in maintaining the epithelial integration of the uh cornea and the eye. So whenever there is eye deficiency vitamin A deficiency you can see dry eyes in the patient and along with that bot spot. So zerothalmia is also a manifestation of the dry eyes. Okay. So along with that night blindness will also be described in the clinical case.
Then moving on to the fifth question. So you can see the features alopeescia peranal rash plus diarrhea. So what is this called as? It is called as acroermatitis antopathica.
And what is the pathology? Why does it happen? It happens due to the zinc deficiency. So the features of the zinc deficiency manifest like alopeescia, perin anal rashes and diarrhea. So whenever you see these three things, think in terms of the uh zinc deficiency. Sometimes poor wound healing can also be described along with these features. Then moving on to the next features. So have a look progressive memory loss was described plus aphasia along with that you can see here amloid plague and neuro fibr fibbrillary tangles which are made of to protein. So whenever you see this kind of um buzzwords described in the clinical case go with the answer as the Alzheimer's disease.
So sometimes oneliner questions can also be asked that amaloid plague is seen in which of the following disease or neuropibr fibrillary tangles are characteristic feature of Alzheimer's disease. Okay. So this is again an important topic comes in integration with the pathology then um medicine as well and sometimes in the psychiatry as well. So Alzheimer's disease a must know topic. Then moving on to the next question. So in the clinical case they will be describing like the features pinrolling tremors predicynesia rigidity which is called as a cog wheel rigidity okay then shuffling gate plus levy body what can be the diagnosis think what can be the diagnosis it is the parkinson's disease so the parkinson's disease will be um presenting to us with these following features and it is also called as a le body dementia so these are the bodies which are accumulated ated in the brain uh called as levy body and gives this appearance.
Then the next question so we will discuss certain questions of the toxicity. So I have tried to compiled here the important repeat topics which are asked uh in the exam multiple times.
So this is a integration of the vitam uh sorry biochemistry, pathology, pharmarmacology and various other subjects. So we will have a look at all those things which are important and which are repeatedly asked. So they go eighth question respiratory depression plus hyperothermia unconscious and pinpoint pupil. So pinpoint pupil are again a characteristic feature of which kind of poisoning? Yes, it is morphine poisoning which is also called as a opioid poisoning. O I O I T. Opioid poisoning to you. It can also be given as a morphine poisoning.
Now the next question hyperothermia with dilated pupils, teicardia, urinary retention and agitation. So what can be the toxicity? These uh features are seen with the edropin poisoning or atropen toxy city. Okay. So easy right? Uh then moving on to the next question. Diarrhea plus britis and rashes on the sun exposed parts plus neuropathy and kazal's neck list.

Yes, it is the vitamin B3 deficiency which is also called as a nein deficiency and the disease associated with this one is called as a pelle to these diarrhea kazals necklace rashes on the sun exposed area classical findings seen with the pelgra to see we have discussed five six things here which can be interchangeably asked in the exams like vitamin B3 also called as nasin so nasin deficiency the nasin deficiency will cause pelgra and these are the features of the pelgra and uh the classical finding kazal's necklace okay repeatedly asked in the exams all almost all the exams like five six times this question has come in the past five papers okay so the next question from again from the biochemistry so increased VLDL plus increased kyomicrons plus eruptive santomas per se what can be the diagnosis so these are the familial Tri glyceridemias which are being asked in the exam and this eruptive xantomas are seen with this uh triglyceride.
Okay. Then the next question from the pathology have a look microitic hypochromic anemia was described then pa plus decrease in the feritin. So this is a very very important parameter.
Whenever you see decrease in the feritin and microitic uh anemia think in terms of the iron deficiency anemia. So this is a marker for the iron deficiency anemia. So question one line of questions have been asked on the markers. So this is an important one and again iron deficiency anemia five to six times question has been asked from the pathology. If you go and analyze the pqs in all the papers you will come across a question from the iron deficiency anemia. So I have included it here. So these are the things which will be asked in the exam and this is how the clinical case will be presented. Now cholineia what is this? The spoon shaped neck uh nails. Spoon shaped nails will be seen in case of iron deficiency anemia. Again a buzz word to be remembered. Then the next question have a look strict vegetarian is there and they come with the macroitic anemia and on peripheral blood smear you could see hyper segmented neutrfils.

Okay. Then the next and the last question for this session palmo plantar pigmentations were seen. And so these are the bluish black pigments present on the body. Urine turns black on standing. Plus Benedict's test was positive and on X-ray calcifications were seen. So what will be the diagnosis? Again a very famous question asked repeatedly in the exam and the diagnosis is the alcapon ura. And why does this alcapon ura happen? It happens due to the efficiency of an enzyme which is enzyme which is called as homogenic oxidase. So these are the things features which you must remember from the alcapon ura. So again one important buzz word I have missed it here that is the okronosis. So these are the bluish blackish pigmentation which can be accumulated forming this okrinosis chronosis and the most common site for this okronosis is the ear. Okay. So these can be described in the clinical case. So these were various important clinical cases along with the buzzwords which you must know.
