Test your basic knowledge |

Subject : health-sciences
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. The ER and PR status of the tumor -The measures of proliferative capacity of the tumor -Her2/neu gene amplification.






2. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)-> Cervical cancer Hepatitis B Virus (HBV)-> Liver cancer HIV->Capoze's sarcomaEbstein-Barr Virus (EBV)-> Perkins (rare) lymphoma






3. Starts in blood forming tissue such as bone marrow






4. Code for proteins to turn off cell growth - loss of function - Recessive






5. Cells are very abnormal - Moderately differentiated






6. Starts in blood forming tissue such as bone marrow






7. Major cause is smoking






8. Brachytherapy -Sources are placed directly into tumor or in close proximity (e.g. lung - cervical - prostate)






9. Spread of cancer to other organs. Eg:- in colon ->muscularis-> into ovaries






10. Relieve pain - Relieve obstruction






11. -Defect in differentiation-Secrete enzyme to dissolve binding protein fibronectin- no cell surface adherence -Loss of ability to stop dividing- uncontrolled proliferation-Doubling time (exponential growth)-Loss of cell borders -ability to form new bl






12. Assist with decision making (teaching) -Assess psychosocial status & needs -Assess understanding of intervention -Reinforce info. about procedure - complications. - hospital procedures - & follow-up management -Educate regarding post-op self cares






13. Inappropriately active versions of proto-oncogens (normal genes before mutation) code for proteins that induce malignant growth by turning on cell division (growth factors)






14. Tumor cell to elicit and immune response






15. The lymphoma has advanced beyond the lymph nodes and spleen and has spread to one or more organs such as bone - bone marrow skin or liver.






16. Preoperative with or without chemotherapy - Goal to shrink tumor before surgery






17. Polypeptides that influence cell growth






18. Begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs






19. Lung - Lyrnyx - Esophagus - pancreas - mouth - stomach - leukemia - bladder - kidney - cervix






20. Intravenous -Intraarterial -Intrapeitoneal -Intrathecal:into spinal canal -Intravesical Bladder -Oral






21. Begin in the tissues of the brain and spinal cord






22. Most common form - Linear accelerator generates ionizing radiation






23. Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells






24. ~1 -368 -030 new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed this year~ 563 -650 Americans are expected to die of cancer this year ~ 9.6 million Americans with a history of cancer are alive today






25. Stage 1: Early disease - Stage 2: Locally advanced disease - Stage 3: Advanced disease - Stage 4: widespread disease

26. Mutation - Oncogenes - Tumor suppressor genes






27. Cells are immature and primitive - Origin of cells difficult to determine






28. Cells differ slightly from normal cells






29. Post surgery or chemotherapy - Goal to reduce risk of local recurrence






30. Mimic body's immune system






31. Based on spread of disease staging -Tumor Node Metastasis classification system -Stage 0-4






32. Appearance & degree of differentiation - Grading-> GX-G4






33. -Defect in differentiation-Secrete enzyme to dissolve binding protein fibronectin- no cell surface adherence -Loss of ability to stop dividing- uncontrolled proliferation-Doubling time (exponential growth)-Loss of cell borders -ability to form new bl






34. Cells more abnormal - moderately differentiated






35. Used in Prevention - determine the diagnostic and treatment plan (clinical staging) - Cure and or control of cancer - Supportive care - Rehabilitation - Palliation of symptoms - Diagnosis (biopsy)






36. Cells differ slightly from normal cells






37. Different drugs to affect periods of cell cycle






38. Mimic body's immune system






39. 1st to occur because heart and brain are very important organs






40. Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells






41. Intravenous -Intraarterial -Intrapeitoneal -Intrathecal:into spinal canal -Intravesical Bladder -Oral






42. Begin in the cells of the immune system






43. Begin in the tissues of the brain and spinal cord






44. Breast cancer - non-hodgkin's lymphoma






45. Given at the same time b/c different mechanisms of action that lower the amount of drugs given-> decrease toxicity






46. Assist with decision making (teaching) -Assess psychosocial status & needs -Assess understanding of intervention -Reinforce info. about procedure - complications. - hospital procedures - & follow-up management -Educate regarding post-op self cares






47. Cure - Control - palliation (pain relive)






48. Most common form - Linear accelerator generates ionizing radiation






49. What cell is is? - How agressive?






50. Begin in the cells of the immune system
