Question Type Breakdown ➢ True and false: ➢ Matching, multiple choice and short answer: ➢ Clinical questions: Only questions are provided for clinical questions as examinees are strongly encouraged to answer them in their own words. All the Best! True And False: Questions if False make the statement True Haversian canals contain the nerve and blood supply for the osteon. true Prolonged immobilization can lead to structural joint changes associated with OA. true The dowager hump is a result of collapsed vertebrae. True Lamellae house osteocytes. False, Lacunae house osteocytes. Osteoblast replication and activity are increased with age. False, Osteoblast replication and activity are decreased with age. Secondary gout is characterized by the overproduction or the underexcretion of uric acid. False, Primary gout is characterized by the overproduction or the underexcretion of uric acid. Hyperuricemia may be a result of an underproduction of purines. False, Hyperuricemia may be a result of overproduction of purines. Volkmann canals run parallel to the long axis of the bone. These canals connect the vascular and nervous innervations of the periosteum and the medullary cavity. False, Volkmann canals are positioned at right angles to the long axis of the bone. These canals connect the vascular and nervous innervations of the periosteum and the medullary cavity. A T-score compares the bone of the patient to that of a healthy 20-year-old adult. False, A T-score compares the bone of the patient to that of a healthy 30-year-old adult. A capsular pattern is considered normal range of motion for a specific joint. False, a capsular pattern is limited range of motion in a pattern specific to a joint, indicative of a degenerative process. Corticosteroids can be used as needed for the management of pain associated with OA. False, corticosteroids are to be used sparingly in the management of pain associated with OA as they contribute to the destruction of the joint. Matching, Multiple Choice And Short Answer: Each of the following are true of gout except: Uric acid dissolves readily in synovial fluid Which of the following would a patient likely exhibit on an initial physical exam if you suspect they have OA? (mark all that apply) capsular pattern, crepitus with movement Which of the following are true regarding synostoses? (mark all that apply) they allow no movement between them, they are joined by dense connective tissue Blood circulates through bone by what means? (mark all that apply) via central Haversian and Volkmann canals, an anastomosis between perforating and nutrient arteries, diffusion through endosteal surface of the bone and the canaliculi Which of the following drugs is most commonly prescribed to treat osteoporosis? alendronate Which of the following cells regulate bone growth through the secretion of growth factors and tumor necrosis factor? osteoblasts Which of the following are true of articular cartilage? Proteoglycans of the extracellular matrix resist compression forces Polypeptide chains give form and tensile strength Interstitial osmotic pressure and available fluid contribute to joint lubrication In the liver, the inactive form of Vitamin D is converted to which of the following? (mark all that apply) 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 Which of the following medications is used to maintain normal levels of uric acid? (mark all that apply) allopurinol Damage to the synovial membrane resulting in non-specific inflammation occurs in which stage of OA? late stages Which of the following is true regarding the synovium? The synovium secretes fluid that facilitates movement between articulating surfaces Premature Osteoporosis is characterized by which of the following? (mark all that apply) often a result of chronic corticosteroid use, premature birth Clinical questions: Only questions are provided for clinical questions as examinees are strongly encouraged to answer them in their own words. If someone loses their balance when walking on uneven terrain, explain how tendons and ligaments work to protect the joint and structures within it. The tendons and ligaments of joints serve in proprioception (the awareness of ones' position in space or movement of the body). When these structures undergo stretch or torsional strain, these proprioceptive nerve fibers will cause a reflexive response to adjust the tension on the muscles (to maintain balance and not fall over) that support the joint protecting the capsule and other joint structures.
