why haven't we had a vaccine for rhinovirus

many serotypes

what is main route of transmission in developing countries for a picornovirus that causes jaundice, hsm, fever?

hep a--fecal oral in unfiltered water esp southern hemisphere. needs to be chlorinated and get a vaccine!

what kind of vaccine is hep a

killed

virus that causes explosive watery diarrhea on a cruiseship, how get it and characteristics of virus

norovirus from the calicivirus family +ssRNA linear that is activated when cut into pieces ssrna, naked

what is part of flavivirus

hep c, dengue, yellow fever, west nile

jaundice, backpain, ades egyptei, bloody diarrhea and vomiting

yellow fever
flavivirus
vaccine live attenuated

mosquito, encephalitis, myelitis (meningitis with flaccid paralysis and seizures/coma)

west nile
flavivirus
serology and pcr on csf

blood transfusion before 1990 is now having RUQ pain, hsm, increased AST more than ALT. what is causing this and what virus

hep C. if it was alcoholic hep c then ALT> AST

togavirus

envelope sslinear + icosahedral
rubella= german measles
arbovirus: eastern and western encephalitis

is there a treatment for encephalitis caused by togavirus

no. need just netting and bedding and spray

blueberry mufin rash, radiolucent bones lesions, pda, mental retardation, pulm stenosis, microcephaly.

measles virus, rubella
togavirus

which toga virus is a TORCH disease and what is the congenital symptoms

cataracts, sensoneural deafness and PDA--rubella

what is childhood and adults presentation of rubella and transmission. how can prevent this

respiratory droplets childhood exanthema, posturicular and occipital lymphadenopathy, descending maculopapular rash
adults: Adulthood: lymphadenopathy and
live vaccine: MMR vaccine, don't give to pregnant women or HIV CD4 count less than 200

coronavirus
and tx

encapsulated, helical, ssRNA
MERS, SARS and common cold---corona can seem innocent but turn bad real quick
tx: ribivarin, broad spectrum ab, corticosteroids

what combination therapy for hiv, can everyone have the same cocktail?

no, need to do genotyping bc several strains. NRTI + NNRTI + ccr5 inhibitor in early stage--maraviroc

when should test for hiv

6mo after exposure, early will give false negative

what tests for hiv

1. elisa 2. confirm with western blot = gel electrophoriesis

what is pathology of how hiv enters cells

ccr5 ad cxcr4 (early and late) corrector enter and uncut. reverse transcriptase--> insert in host dan and make new virions

how does hiv present

promodome flu like symptoms. latent up to 10 yrs then drop in cd4+. once below 200 then considered AIDS

a patient comes in with fever, headache, mental status change personality change, olfactory hallucination. on CT see necrosis and hemorrhage of temporal lobes.

herpes 1 virus no. 1 cause of sporadic encephalitis (vs. herpes 2 causes aseptic meningitis)

which nerve is herpes 1 latent in and where is herpes 2

trigeminal nerve for 1 and 2 is sacral ganglia

herpes whitlow

herpes on fingers --dentists

a patient has a cold sore on their mouth has a cc of red eyes and pain, you decide to a eye exam, what would expect to see on slit lamp

keratoconjuctivits- serpinginous corneal ulcers --herpes 1. cold sore is herpes labialis

painful inguinal lymphadenopathy with clusters of vesicles with red base and vesicular. what is diagnostic test

PCR of CSF for herpes meningitis(hsv2 is more common for enceph than 1). tzank smear and see multinucleate giant cells for vesicles (get it at base of vesicle)

what can give to prevent breakout in pt with herpes

acyclovir or valcyclovir

what is first sign of herpes 1 and what is followed by after

gingivostomatits--inflamed lips and gums. then cn have erythema multiform, target rash 1-2wks after infection

which herpes can pass vertical transmission

herpes 2

a teenager with tonsillar exudates, fever, and generalized lymphadenopathy esp posterior cervical comes in you treat with amoxicillin. they come back not feeling better and now they have a maculopapular rash. you decide to do a pbs and what other test?

monospot test: heterophile antibodies agglutinate to sheep blood rbc.
pbs: atypical lymphocytes on pbs. reactive t cells. but ebv does infect b cells via cd21
avoid sports

a patient comes in with white lesion on tongue that can't be scraped off

hiv patients, oral hairy leukoplaqua. EBV

an asian with ebv
africacn ebv

nasopharyngeocarcinoma-asian
jaw lesion-burkits lymphoma

if an hiv + pregnant woman comes in and gets cmv esp in 2nd trimester. what are we worried for baby

hydrops fetalis

if baby contracts cmv through mothers breast milk or saliva then how will neonate presetn

blueberry muffin rash (petechia from thrombocytopenia), hsM, jaundice, seizures **sensineural deafness. can see intracranial calcificatins and ventriculomegaly

if AIDS patient <50 for cd4, what disease can get with cmv

cmv retinitis: cotton woot spots, vision loss, linear and deep ulcerations in esophagus

a patient with sore throat, lymphadenopathy and fatigue and negative mono spot test. suspect cmv what test?

get buffy coat with cow and platelets and incubate with anti-cmv ab to detect virus

hiv. anyone with hiv, immunosuppression with disseminated rash (cross midline)
give shingles vaccine if cd4 over 200

why is it worse for adults to get chickenpox

bc at risk for fatal pneumonia and encephalitis (esp if immunocomp)
