List of results

• WBR0224  + ('''Incorrect''' : Inferior petrosal sampling is required to differentiate ectopic ACTH from pituitary ACTH Cushing’s syndrome.)

• WBR0222  + ('''Incorrect''' : Thyroid ultrasound would be useful if there is thyroid enlargement is present in order to monitor any change in size and look for dominant nodule(>1cm). Patient examination is normal and hence won’t be appropriate next step.)
• WBR0229  + ('''Incorrect''' : Treatment is started after biochemical confirmation is made, because the drugs may interfere with interpretation of results.)

• WBR0351  + ('''Incorrect''' Acute pericarditis presents with diffuse ST segment elevation and chest pain that changes with position and respiration. Pericarditis would not show ballooning of the apex of the left ventricle on echocardiography.)
• WBR0355  + ('''Incorrect''' Cardiac enzymes start rising after an hour of Infarction , so not the best next step here. On the base of electrocardiogram findings and patient history there is enough evidence to begin therapy for MI, starting with an antiplatelet agent.)
• WBR0357  + ('''Incorrect''' Cardiac enzymes start to rise one hour after pain onset. They should be measured but starting tPA is the best next step here)
• WBR0358  + ('''Incorrect''' Cardiac enzymes start to rise one hour after pain onset. They should be measured but arranging for angioplasty is the best next step here)

• WBR0653  + ('''Incorrect''' Ejection fraction <60%, left ventricular end systolic diameter more than 55mm is the operative criteria for mitral regurgitation, not aortic regurgitation)
• WBR0835  + ('''Incorrect''' Electrocardiogram findings and chest pain changing with position suggests Pericarditis more than myocardial Infarction.)
• WBR0652  + ('''Incorrect''' Endocarditis is often acco … '''Incorrect''' Endocarditis is often accompanied by fever , and presents as a new murmur or change in an existing murmur. It is diagnosed by blood cultures and vegetations on cardiac valves on echocardiography. The patient in this vignette does not display fever or other acute infective symptoms.y fever or other acute infective symptoms.)
• WBR0833  + ('''Incorrect''' Entamoeba is an anaerobic protozoan parasite that causes amebiasis.)
• WBR0836  + ('''Incorrect''' HbA1C can be assessed to monitor blood sugar control over a period of 6 weeks. Though diabetes mellitus is a cause of peripheral arterial disease, HbA1C has no role in diagnosing peripheral arterial disease)
• WBR0839  + ('''Incorrect''' Heart failure is not characterized by electrical alternans.)
• WBR0841  + ('''Incorrect''' If the electrocardiogram was normal then holter monitoring may be opted to know the episodes of atrial fibrillation in 24 hours.)
• WBR0831  + ('''Incorrect''' Mitral valve prolapse is usually characterized by a mid-systolic click. In severe cases, it can be associated with a regurgitation murmur.)
• WBR0837  + ('''Incorrect''' Pantoprazole can be prescr … '''Incorrect''' Pantoprazole can be prescribed if Electrocardiogram result is normal. Acid reflux may be the most probable cause of this patient’s distress, but pantoprazole therapy without ruling out ischemic heart disease first is not the most appropriate course of action not the most appropriate course of action)

• WBR0455  + ('''Incorrect''' Spirinolactone should be replaced, but not with digoxin)

• WBR0356  + ('''Incorrect''' Statins are important in lipid management with mortality benefits in Myocardial infarction patients but not time specific.)

• WBR0453  + ('''Incorrect''' Synchronized cardioversion is performed when arrhythmias are the reason for heart failure.)
• WBR0651  + ('''Incorrect''' Though the initially preferred treatment is medical in mitral regurgitation if ejection fraction drops below 60% and left ventricular end systolic diameter exceeds 40mm, valve repair should be performed)
• WBR0352  + ('''Incorrect''' Urine myoglobin levels are raised in rhabdomyolysis . Rhabdomyolysis is a rare complication of statin therapy. Monitoring of urine myoglobin is not standard of care)
• WBR0650  + ('''Incorrect''' Ventricular septal defects are characterized by a holosystolic murmur at the lower left sternal border)
• WBR0359  + ('''Incorrect''' Ventricular tachycardia is characterized by a wide QRS complex tachycardia on electrocardiogram)
• WBR0832  + ('''Incorrect''' When mitral valve prolapse is asymptomatic, treatment may not be necessary, but when symptomatic beta blockers are used)
• WBR1037  + ('''Incorrect'''-)
• WBR1033  + ('''Incorrect'''- Absence of fever excludes the infectious etiology, however staphylococcal bone infection is common with sickle cell disease.)
• WBR1140  + ('''Incorrect'''- In minimal diseases (diam … '''Incorrect'''- In minimal diseases (diameter up to 1.0 centimeters), hemithyroidectomy (or unilateral lobectomy) and isthmectomy may be sufficient, but there is some discussion whether this is still preferable over total thyroidectomy for this group of patients. thyroidectomy for this group of patients.)
