Which is associated with May-Hegglin anomaly? Dohle bodies and giant platelets. Elevations of the total white cell count above 12x19^9/uL is termed: Leukocytosis. The most appropriate screening test for hemoglobin S is: Dithionite solubility. Many microspherocytes, schistocytes and budding off of spherocytes can be seen on peripheral blood smears of patients with: Extensive burns. Muramidase (lysozyme) is present in: Granulocytes, monocytes and their precursors. The immunoglobin class typically found to be present in sAlivA, teArs, and other secretions is: IgA. In chronic active hepatitis, high titers of which of the following antibodies are seen? Anti-smooth muscle. ANA - Positive, 1: Complement - Decreased ASO - 50 Todd units RA - Positive. The above results could be seen in patients with:

Lupus erythematosus. From these test results it can be concluded that Patient #3 has: Patient #1 - HBSAg: Neg; anti-HBC IgM: Neg; anti-HAV IgM: Pos. Patient #2 - HBSAg: Pos; Anti-HBC IgM: Pos.; Anti-HAV IgM: Neg. Patient #3 - HBSAg: Neg.; Anti-HBC IgM: Pos.; Anti-HAV IGM: Neg. Acute hepatitis B.

A TSI tube inoculated with an organism gave the following reactions: Alkaline Slant Acid Butt No H2S No Gas Produced Nonmotile. The organism is most likely: Shigella spp. Protozoan cysts are found in a wet mount of sediment from ethyl-acetate concentrated material. The cysts are without peripheral chromatin on the nuclear membrane. Each cyst has four nuclei and each nuclei has a large karyosome which appears as a refractive dot. These oval-shaped cysts are most likely.
