mcl Wait, but did anyone mention that females can get sertoli-leydig cell tumors, which are notorious for producing lots of androgen??? +38

mcl But seriously though, pathology outlines says sertoli-leydig tumor "may be suspected clinically in a young patient presenting with a combination of virilization, elevated testosterone levels and ovarian / pelvic mass on imaging studies." As for follicle cell tumors, granulosa cell tumors usually occur in adults and would cause elevated levels of estrogens. Theca cell tumor would also primarily produce estrogens. Putting the links at the end since idk if they're gonna turn out right lol Link pathology outlines for sertoli leydig granulosa cell tumor theca cell tumor +12

jus2234 The question describes how he had a strep infection 15 days ago, and now this is poststreptococcal glomeruloneprhitis, which can also be described as proliferative glomerulonephritis +10

seagull The question would be too fair if it just said PSGN. Instead we need to smell our own farts first. +68

yotsubato And they used terminology NOT found in FA +5

water who said they were limited to FA? +2

nbmehelp FA uses the common nomenclature and the fact most of our other resources use the same nomenclature for this, I think we can agree that is is the accepted terms. If they're gonna decide not to use the nomenclature that most medical students are taught then they should provide their own study materials at that point for us to use. The test shouldn't be this convoluted for no reason. +8

alimd Ok. They can use terminology whatever they want. But BUN-CR>20 is CLEARLY prerenal right? +

an_improved_me I think you're talking passed each other. The fact of the matter is that NBME doesn't really care how we prepare. It cares to stratify students using whatever stupid metrics it deems necessary. It's not limited to first-aid, and that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be. +

colonelred_ Catecholamines activate the Na/K pump, which will drive K inside. +11

trazabone Read online that catachelamines are released following tonic clonic seizures. Besides that, BP of 180/100 could indicate that catecholamines are circulating. +1

fulminant_life This mechanism is why giving albuterol for hyperkalemia works +9

nbmehelp Why does this guy have increased catecholamines tho +

johnson His SNS activity is seriously increased --> increased catecholamines. +

nbmehelp Why is his SNS activity increased? Is the BP literally the only hint? +

youssefa Alcohol withdrawal creates a hyper- catecholaminergic state + Seizures do that as well. +5

water My best guess is that withdrawal puts the body in a state of stress (same for seizures) and with stress you have release of catecholamine which we'll see in the BP and the hypokalemia. +3
