A 63-year-old international telecommunications executive visits your office with complaints of a high fever. The fever is not constant, but intermittent. When you press him for details he estimates that every three days or so he suffers these debilitating “sweats”. He usually has headaches and muscle aches during the episodes. They keep him home from work. After half a day or so, he feels better. He reports that he has experienced these episodes for about two months.
What is the name of the condition you suspect? What is the causative organism? Is this pathogen eukaryotic or prokaryotic? What should be your first question about the patient’s history?
What are the two main places in the human body that are exploited by the causative organism in this disease? Can this individual transmit this infection to others? Why or why not? How should this patient be treated (general treatment procedures/explain)?
Justine is a 14-year-old who is a star player on her high school's soccer team. The team is currently 17-2 this year and has a chance at going to the state championship. Over the past few days, Justine began feeling ill with noticeable signs of a high fever. Her parents decided to take her to the emergency room to get looked at. The attending physician admitted her to the hospital with an ongoing bacterial infection. It has been several days and the doctors are perplexed that her body is unable to fight off the infection. The doctors take a blood sample and have it sent to the lab for analysis. The lab results indicate that the vacuoles in her white blood cells are successfully trapping the bacteria. However, one specific organelle is malfunctioning; specifically, this organelle is not binding to the vacuoles and therefore cannot release the enzymes necessary to break down the bacterial cell walls.
Identify the malfunctioning organelle so doctors can begin providing the proper…

- The mother of a 6-year-old child brings her daughter to the pediatrician's office because she has had a sore throat, cough, and fever for several days. She reports a fever up to 104°F that worsens at night, but seems to respond to treatment with acetaminophen. The child has not been eating or drinking well because she says, "it hurts to swallow." She is ill appearing, and does not seem interested in playing with the toys that are in the examination room. The physician notes a thick, white exudate on both of the patient's tonsils, which also seem enlarged. A throat culture and complete blood count with differential is ordered. 1) The patient's mother expresses concern about her daughter's fevers. She states that the fevers are a sign that her child is unable to fight this infection. What is a proper response to these concerns? A) It is impossible to determine exactly why she is having these fevers. Doctors call this a fever of unknown origin.

L.H. has worked in construction for 15 years and is complaining of a red, itchy, dry rash that has formed on his arms and hands. Lately, his job is working to lay cement which means he is outside most of the time. The rash is often itchy and painful, which prevents him from performing his duties to his best ability and he is worried about continuing to work. Additionally, it has impacted his ability to play golf, a hobby that he enjoys in his spare time.LH has tried wearing work gloves, but due to the nature of the job he is unable to wear them the entire time. He’s also tried different creams, but that had little effect. Come up with 5 follow up questions you could ask L.H. to further determine the appropriate skin condition? Comprehension.

He earns money by collecting aluminum cans along the roadside and from trash dumpsters. He states that he has been coughing up about ¼ cup of white sputum each morning for the past 20 years. About 1 week ago, he noticed a sudden onset of shaking chills, fever, sweating, malaise, chest pain, and shortness of breath at rest. He also began coughing up rust-colored sputum that was thicker than his normal sputum production. Mt. C admits to current consumption of two packs per day of cigarettes (ie 70 pack-year smoking history). He admits to occasional alcohol use but denies having orthopnea, ankle edema, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, dysuria, wheezing, or hemoptysis.

- A 27 years old female, returned from Africa 3 weeks ago, got intermittent high fever for 1 week with chills and shivering, sweating after temperature drop to normal, then symptoms resolved. The cycle was repeated after 6 to 7 hours. She did not get better after taking chloroquine for 3 days. Physical examination: pulse 92 beats/min, blood pressure 110/60mmHg, poor mental state, slightly pale conjunctiva, normal breath sounds, heart rate 92/min, soft abdomen, no tenderness or rebound tenderness, normal liver but splenomegaly. Laboratory tests: blood: WBC 7.5×109/L, neutrophils 75%, lymphocytes 25%, hemoglobin 100g / L; Urinalysis: urobilinogen (-), bilirubin(±). (1) What’s the most likely diagnosis?

His wife took his temperature and found it to be slightly elevated. He dismissed the condition, blaming it on long days in the garden and an allergy attack. However, his symptom list grew over the next few days. He lost his appetite, his joints and muscles were sore, and he woke up wringing wet from night sweats. He continued to have a fever and his wife was worried at how pale he looked. She insisted on a doctor's visit, and after a physical and throat culture, he was sent home with instructions to take oral penicillin and Tylenol. Symptoms continued for a week, with additional complaints of headache, rapid breathing, and coughing. Heart rate was rapid, and Mr. Jones had a slight heart murmur but his throat culture was negative. As the physician begin to look for other causes, he learned from Mr. Jones that an artificial heart valve had been implanted in his heart 10 years earlier.

The emergency physician checked Bailey over but sent him home saying it was only a com- mon cold, probably brought home by his older sib- lings, and that all would be fine. But Bailey's health has not been fine as he has been having an unusual number of bacterial infections and he is not yet quite 1 year old. The antibiotics that Bailey's physician prescribed have cleared up his bacterial respiratory infections but another infection always follows. Now that Bailey is back at the hospital with pneumonia, his physician has ordered a number of other laboratory tests as he is now worried about Bailey's immune system. The studies showed that Bailey had normal levels of B cells and T cells, with his immu- noglobulin levels and hematology results listed in CASE STUDY TABLE 11-1.1.

- NS is a 32-year-old female who had been sick with a cold virus for 10 days. She states that she had flu symptoms of cough, sore throat, and fatigue. It has been 3 weeks since the cold, and she continues to be fatigued and finds it hard to get enough energy to do things. NS says she has noted that she has been bruising easily. She hit her arm accidentally on the edge of a counter, and now she has a large bruise. She has also noted little purple spots all over her hands and chest. On examination it is noted that she does have a large bruise on her right arm and petechiae and purpura over her chest and hands. Lab work comes back with a platelet count of 40,000mm3. If both TTP and ITP can present purpura anad petechiae as well as decreased platelet count, choose and EXPLAIN which diagnosis does NS have and why the others can be eliminated. A. TTP B. ITP C.
