Bile is conjugated withGlucoronide

Bilirubin is conjugated with Alanine/taurine

Oral white plaque that CAN be scraped offCandida, assoc w/ immunocomprimise, so look for underlying cause!

Oral white plaque that CANNOT be scraped offLeukoplakia, may be due to EBV (hairy), or precancerous lesion

Gray-Turner vs Cullen signFlank vs periumbilical discolor (retroperitoneal hemorrage), acute pancreatitis

Kayser-fleischer ringsDark rings that encircle the iris, due to Cu accum in Wilson’s dz

Bird beak on barium xrayAcalasia (no peristalsis in esophagus)

Shrunken liver Extreme, rapid necrosis (ex) fulminant hepatitis

Abd pain 30m post-prandial, worse by eatingGastric ulcer

Abd pain btw meals, relieved by eatingDuodenal ulcer

Most common oral cancerSquamous cell carcinoma (usually tongue), high risk if smoke/EtOH

Elevated alkaline phosphataseHallmark of cholestasis

Major cause of ACUTE pancreatitisGallstones  duct obstruction

Major cause of CHRONIC pancreatitisAlcoholism

Frond-like papilla, no goblet cellsVillous adenoma

CarcinoidTricuspid insuffiency, pulm stenosis, flushing, diarrhea, due to hi serotonin

Portal inflamm/fibrosisChronic hepatitis, cholestasis

Rose spots, CNS disturbances, high sustained feverEnteric fever due to salmonella typhi, get a BLOOD culture

Abx NOT indicated in which infectious diarrheas?EHEC (risk of HUS) or uncomplicated salmonella non-typhi (self-limiting)

NO risk of chronic hepatitisHep A/E

Onion skinning of bile ductsPrimary sclerosing cholangitis, assoc w/ IBD

Gingival hyperplasia + lymphadenopathyAssoc w/ myelogenous leukemias (hyperplasia alone assoc w/ dilantin)

Increase UNconjugated serum bilirubinHemolytic dz

Increase conjugated serum bilirubinLiver/biliary tract dz (can’t be excreted into bile ducts so spills into blood)

ONE test that proves a viral hepatitis infxnIgM anti-HBc

Location of esophageal cancersSCC affects proximal, adenocarcinoma affects distal (duh, assoc w/ Barretts)

Jaundice, dark urine, acholic stoolsCholestasis, due to hyperbilirubinemia

AsterixisFlapping tremor seen in hepatic encephalopathy

Necrotic bowel but duodenum/transverse sparedEMBOLUS that lodges in SMA distal to branching of middle colic a

Necrotic bowel w/ above NOT sparedTHROMBUS that forms @ branch point of SMA, thus MCA is also occluded

N-acetylcysteineAntidote to acetaminophen OD, as increases glutathione stores

Secretin effects on pancreasCauses HCO3 secretion from ductal cells

CCK effects on pancreasCauses enzyme secretion from acinar cells
