there are many methods of memorizing it...I just wanted to highlight that visual cues are more
powerful than verbal cues...so try to combine both methods wherever possible...so that even if you
forget the letters or get confused with whether the I in the mnemonic stands for Income or IMR
...The visual cue will help u to recollect the answer....u can choose ur own methods and words...my
aim is to tell u that try to make visual cues wherever possible...a picture can speak thousand of
words...👍🏻

now some cricketing facts:
Schistocytes are seen in :
a)Iron deficiency anemia
b) Sickle cell anemia
c) Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia
d) Aplastic anemia
e) Megaloblastic anemia
Correct Answer:c) Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia(MAHA). A schistocyte is a fragmented part of a red blood cell. They are
typically irregularly shaped, jagged, and have two pointed ends. Sometimes referred to as “helmet cells”. Several
microangiopathic diseases, including disseminated intravascular coagulation and thrombotic microangiopathies, generate
fibrin strands that sever red blood cells as they try to move past a thrombus, creating schistocytes. Excessive schistocytes
present in blood can be a sign of MAHA where the most common cause is aortic stenosis.

surrounding tissues. Hence the name oinion skin spleen.(also note that Shrinking Lungs are seen in SLE........SL=SL)
“pencil-point” cortex=cortical thinning seen in scurvy
. In 'scurvy' all of the following radiological signs are seen except:
A. Soap bubble appearance
B. Pelican spur
C. Frenkel's line
D. Zone of demarcation near epiphysis
Correct Answer: A
radiological findings in scurvy:
• periosteal reaction : due to subperiosteal haemorrhage
• scorbutic rosary .(note that scorbutic rosaries have sharp margin and rickety rosaries have round margins..)
• Wimberger's ring sign: circular, opaque radiologic shadow surrounding epiphyseal centers of ossification, which may result
from bleeding
• Frankel's line: dense zone of provisional calcification
• Trümmerfeld zone : lucent metaphyseal band underlying Frankel's line
• Pelkan spur: metaphyseal spurs which result in cupping of the metaphysis)
and finally
HIT AND RUN DRUGS=drugs whose action is
irreversible is called "hit and run drugs"...their action persist for a long time even after the drug is eliminated from the body...
Which of the following is "hit and run" drug?
A. Prazosin
B. Propranolol
C. Reserpine
D. Adenosine
Answer is C...
Its an IRREVERSIBLE inhibitor of vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT). [VMAT usually transports free NA,5HT,dopamine
back into vesicles at presynaptic end] The effect will b seen for days to weeks even after discontinuation of drug. coz it takes
time for synthesis of new VMAT.
hit n run means d effect of drug will remain even after its elimination from the body.. ..
memorise the mnemonic:
hit and run end in MORGUe
M-MAO inhibitors
O-OMEPRAZOLE
R- RESERPINE
GU- GUANETHIDINE

Most Common site of FFFFalse Aneurysm: FFFFFemoral Artery.
· Most Common site of True aneurysm: Popliteal Artery.
· M/C complication of aortic aneurysm--> Rupture
· IOC for aneurysm- CT
The most common type of “true aneurysm” is fusiform type.
The most common site of AAAAarterial aneurysm is Infra renal part of AAAAbdominal AAAAAorta.
PPPPPopliteal Aneurysms are the most common PPPPPeripheral aneurysms.
The most common site for dissecting aneurysms is Ascending Aorta.
MC Causeof AAA IS A: Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm is Atherosclerosis. AI 1996
“Cirsoid aneurysms” are common in superficial temporal artery. (sa=sa)
Types of Aneurysms :
Berry aneurysm: occurs in circle of willis
Micro aneurysms: seen in Diabetes and Hypertension
Mycotic aneurysms: are seen in bacterial infections.
Aortic dissecting Aneurysms: Due to degeneration of tunica media. Occur in Marfans Syndrome and Hypertension.

According to LIGHT's criteria , a pleural effusion is likely exudative if at least one of the following exists:
1. The ratio of pleural fluid protein to serum protein is greater than 0.5
2. The ratio of pleural fluid LDH and serum LDH is greater than 0.6
3. Pleural fluid LDH is greater than 0.6 or ⅔ times the normal upper limit for serum. Different laboratories have different values for
the upper limit of serum LDH, but examples include 200 and 300 IU/l.

lightening flash injuries because of burns due to superheated light
Superior gluteal nerve supplies all except (AIPG – 2009)
A Gluteus minimus
B Gluteus medius
C Tensor fascia lata
D Gluteus maximus
Answer is D..
Gluteus maximus (d) is supplied by the inferior gluteal nerve.
Superior gluteal nerve supplies the trio – Gluteus medius(b), Gluteus minimus (a) & Tensor fascia latae(c).
I. This trio has two major actions at the hip joint – Abduction & Medial rotation. If the foot is fixed it raises the opposite hip.
II. If one foot is fixed this trio will raise the unsupported hip – as happens during walking to clear off the leg from the ground.
Lesion of superior gluteal nerve gives Trendelenburg test positive.
III. The unsupported hip sags down instead of going upwards. Lesion of right superior gluteal nerve leads to sagging down of
left hip.
Superfemale=47,XXX
• often no distinguishing phenotype, especially in 1st year of life
• there may be slight neuromotor developmental delay, followed by slight delay in speech and language. Lack of co-ordination
and poor academic performance with immature behaviour

Which of the following is true regarding superfecundation?
A. Fertilization of a second ovum in a woman who is already pregnant
B. Occurs in bipartite uterus
C. Both ova do not always develop to maturity
D. The second foetus is born later as a mature child
Correct answer : C. Both ova do not always develop to maturity
Superfecundation is fertilization of 2 ova discharged from the ovary at the same period by 2 separate acts of coitus committed
at short intervals.
Both ova do not always develop to maturity.
One foetus may get aborted early or die and get retained until labour.
Fertilization of a second ovum in a woman who is already pregnant issuperfoetation.
It can occurs in a bipartite uterus.
Which of the following is not true regarding super antigens -(AIPG, 2010)
A Bind T cells irrespective of antigen specificity of TCR
B Bind directly to both MHC II and T cell receptor causing T cell activation.
C Bind to cleft or antigen binding groove in the MHC II molecule
D Binds directly to lateral aspect of T cell receptor
ANSWER is C
Superantigens
Please join https://t.me/pediatricmcqs for more
a. Superantigens are potent. activators of T-lymphocytes.
b. Superantigens stimulate very large numbers of T cells, without relation to their epitope specificity. This leads to an excessive
and dysregulated immune response with release of cytokines IL - 1, IL - 2, TNF - α and IF - γ
c. Conventional antigens bind to MHC class I or II molecules in the groove of the αβ dimer (T cell receptor).
d. However, superantigen bind directly to the lateral portion of TCR β chain and MHC class II β chain.
e. For superantigens, antigen specificity of TCR is not required.
All are true regarding superantigens except?
A. Activate very large numbers of B cells
B. Bind outside the antibody binding groove
C. Are medium sized proteins
D. Cause release of cytokines
Correct answer : A. Activate very large numbers of B cells
Epidermolysin and TSS toxin are superantigens
Superimposition technique is used in - AIPG 1990
A. Femur
B. Ribs
C. Skull
D. Pelvis
ANSWER IS C..
Specimens for toxicological studies are preserved in:
A 10% formaldehyde
B Alcohol
C Supersaturated solution of common salt
D Normal saline
Answer is C…
1. All poisoning cases- saturated soln. of common salt, Acid poisoning- rectified spirit (95%ethanol + 5% methanol),EXCEPT-
Carbolic acid- Thymol.
2. Blood for Alcohol- NaF.
3. Urine- Thymol. Faeces- rectified spirit.
4. CO, HCN- liquid paraffin or no preservative if fresh.
5) As, Sb- 15 cm long bone.
6. Rabies- 50% glycerol saline, keep hippocampus, cerebral cortex, cerebellum, medulla.
7. Specimens for pathological examination and Museums specimens are preserved in 10% Formalin.
8 Formalin is ordinarily available as a 40% solution from the market, it is diluted to 10% for use in preservation of specimens.
Formalin is never used to preserve toxicological specimens as it would denature the poisons and make the estimation of
poisons difficult.

All of the following enzymes may contribute in generating free oxygen radicals within neutrophils for killing intracellular
bacteria except?
A. Superoxide dismutase
B. Fenton’s reaction
C. NADPH oxidase
D. Glutathione peroxidase
Correct answer : D. Glutathione peroxidase
Glutathione peroxidase is a free radical scavenger which converts H2O2 to H2O and O2. It does not generate free radicals.
Superoxide dismutase converts superoxide (O2–) to H2O2. Hence it is involved in both free radical scavenging and creation.
Mutation of SOD1(superoxide dismutase 1) gene Is seen in Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis….

Superior temporal gyrus=wernickes area-lesion causes sensory aphasia
The artery to the ductus deferns is a branch of:
• Inferior epigastric artery
• Superior epigastric artery
• Superior vesical artery
• Cremasteric artery
Answer is superior vescical artery
An artery supplying a visceral structure is always a branch of another visceral artery to some related viscera. Here only the
superior vesical artery is a visceral artery and the rest all the parietal (supply the structures in the abdominal wall).
Most common site of origin of vestibular schwannoma is?
A. Cochlear nerve
B. Superior vestibular nerve
C. Inferior vestibular nerve
D. Facial nerve
Correct answer : B. Superior vestibular nerve
Most common site of origin of vestibular schwannoma is Superior vestibular nerve ( 50-60% ).
It also occurs in the inferior vestibular nerve ( 40-50% ) and cochlear nerve ( 10% ).
Diplopia in superior oblique palsy is?
A. Vertical diplopia on downward gaze
B. Vertical diplopia on upward gaze
C. Horizontal diplopia on inward gaze
Please join https://t.me/pediatricmcqs for more
D. Horizontal diplopia on outward gaze
Correct answer : A. Vertical diplopia on downward gaze
In paralysis of the superior oblique muscle (trochlear nerve palsy), maximum diplopia is experienced when the patient looks
down.
This is especially important when the patient tries to climb downstairs and when trying to read a book.
The patient tries to compensate by tucking the chin towards the chest.
Superior oblique muscle is also known as copying muscle...

Lets assess some of the medical terms related to elections,parties and voting...please use your vote wisely.. :-)
BJP=Bence Jones Protein
Bence Jones protein (BJP) is the name given to monoclonal light chains which are filtered by the kidney. There presence
in the urine indicates a paraproteinaemia, often multiple myeloma.
Classically BJP is detected by heating urine to 45-55 deg.C. whereupon the protein coagulates. The precipitant
redissolves on boiling.
Bence Jones proteins are derived from?
A. Alpha globulins
B. Beta globulins
C. Delta globulins
D. Gamma globulins
Correct answer: D. Gamma globulins
Bence Jones proteins contain light chains of gamma globulins.
Bence Jones proteinuria is seen in?
A. Alpha heavy chain disease
B. Gamma heavy chain disease
C. Mu heavy chain disease
D. Epsilon heavy chain disease
Correct answer : C. Mu heavy chain disease
Bence Jones proteinuria is seen in Mu heavy chain disease. It occurs due to the excretion of kappa light chains in urine.
Bence jones proteins are exreted in the urine except
a.multiple myloma
b.chronic lymphatic leukemia
c.waldenstorms macroglobulinemia
d.rheumatic fever
answer is D..
CPM=Central Pontine Myelinolysis:
if plasma sodium is raised too rapidly or too much and the hyponatremia has been present for >24–48 hours, it has the
potential to produce CENTRAL PONTINE MYELINOLYSIS, an acute, potentially fatal neurologic syndrome characterized
by quadriparesis, ataxia, and abnormal extraocular movements.

tendons in the first extensor compartment of the wrist.)
FLOATING LOTUS SIGN(also known as floating lilly sign or camalote sign)=pulmonary hydatid cyst
Sickle related facts and mcqs..(have given few mcqs asked in previous years...its a very high yield topic):
Autosplenectomy is most commonly seen in long standing:
A) Lymphoblastic leukemia
B) Hereditary spherocytosis
C) Sickle cell anemia
D) Thalassemia
Answer is C.
Aplastic crisis in sickle cell anaemia is due to infection due to:
A) Salmonella Typhi
B) Pneumococci
C) Herpes virus
D) Parvovirus B19
ANSWER IS D
Parvovirus B19 triggers aplastic crisis in sickle cell anaemia. The virus causes complete suppression of haematopoesis for
2-3 days. It has little effect in normal individuals; but in sickle cell anaemia due to shortened RBC life span, crisis results.
Patients may require blood transfusion.
Replacement of Glutamate by Valine in beta chain causes increase in concentration of:
A) Haemoglobin A
B) Haemoglobin S
C) Haemoglobin C
D) Haemoglobin E
ANSWER IS B
Most common manifestation of sickle cell anaemia is:
A) Severe anaemia
B) Haemolytic crisis
C) Sequestration crisis
D) Repeated episodes of skeletal pain
Ans: D
Anaemia in sickle cell disease is moderate. Haemolytic crisis is uncommon; it causes jaundice and reduction in
haemoglobin. Sequestration crisis is rare; it causes massive pooling of RBCs in spleen in children between 6 months and
3 years. Most common manifestation of sickle cell disease is recurrent episodes of skeletal pain caused due to
microinfarction.
What is not true about sickle cell anaemia?
A) Hypersplenism may warrent splenectomy
B) Cardiomegaly and heart failure develop with time
C) Patients have susceptibility to pneumococcal infection
Please join https://t.me/pediatricmcqs for more
D) Pulmonary hypertension develops with time
Ans: A
Sickle cell anaemia is associated with hyposplenism due to repeated splenic infarctions. This results in autosplenectomy.
Reduced splenic function causes impaired opsonisation and infection due to capsulated organisms such as pneumococci.
Cardiomegaly, heart failure and pulmonary hypertension are common with chronic sickle cell anaemia.
A person who is heterozygous for sickle cell anemia has increased resistance for?
A. Malaria
B. Filariasis
C. Dengue haemorrhagic fever
D. Thalassemia
Correct answer : A. Malaria
Sickle cell trait (heterozygous case of sickle cell anemia) provides protection against malaria. Sickling of RBC’s result in
the leaking of potassium from the cell. This leads to the death of the malarial parasites within the RBC’s.
Hammer related facts:
The name, hammer toe comes from the way the toe hits or hammers on the floor with each step. The primary deformity
seen in a hammer toe is found at the PIPJ (proximal interphalangeal joint) ...remember HP(hammer toe=PIPJ)
A mallet toe, on the other hand, is a similar deformity but is found in the DIPJ (distal interphalangeal joint). Remember
MD..(mallet toe=DIPJ)
And lastly, claw toes are a deformity where the entire toe grabs and involves the MPJ (metatarsal phalangeal joint) PIPJ
and DIPJ.
Collectively, these deformities are referred to as hammer toes.
Note that:
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy. It is characterised by weakness of extremities
and HAMMER TOE.
PALM related facts:
Now here are some diseases that can be diagnosed using palms:
(note that facts related to fingers will be discussed separately)..

Hypothenar = OAF digiti minimi (ulnar nerve)
SEVERITY OF PALLOR can be assessed by using palmar crease...
Compare the color of palmar crease with that of the adjacent skin of palm. Pallor is said to be present if both are of same
color.
Clinical grading of anemia:
1. Mild: Pallor of conjunctiva and/or mucous membrane
2. Moderate: Above + Pallor of skin
3. Severe: Above + Pallor of palmar creases

Visceral malignancy is associated with Sister Mary Joseph's nodule, which is located at the:
________________________________________
1.knee
2.groin
3.thyroid
4.umbilicus
Answer is 4....
Paraumbilical Nodes (Sister Joseph Node)
Patients with intra-abdominal or pelvic neoplasms may have metastases to a paraumbilical node that is easily palpable
through the navel. This node is named after Sister Joseph, the superintendent at St Mary's Hospital, a unit of the early
Mayo Clinic .According to the legend, she became proficient at predicting the results of the celiotomy on the basis of the
presence of this node, which she felt while hand-prepping the abdomen. This node is often called, incorrectly, “Sister Mary
Joseph's nodule,” perhaps because Catholic nuns have traditionally taken the name of Mary in addition to another name.
at the beginning of mitosis the chromosomes consist of 2 double DNA strands joined together at the centromere known as
sister chromatids .
Sertoli cells(nurse cells) in the testis have receptors for: (AIIMS 2007)
a) FSH
b) LH
c) Inhibin
d) Progesterone
Answer is A...
Leydig cells have receptors for LH & with cholesterol desmolase enzyme they secrete androgens.
Sertoli cell has have receptor for FSH & Testosterone.

ROGER REFLEX (esophagosalivary reflex)- salivation caused by irritation of the lower end of the esophagus.
TENNIS RACKET APPEARANCE-odontogenic myxoma,langerhan cells(electron microscopy),Claustridium
tertium(microscopy)......................
Tennis fracture= Avulsion fracture of the 5th metatarsal styloid, also known as a pseudo-Jones fracture
Tennis elbow=lateral epicondylitis
Now some terms related to tennis..:-):
ACE: Serve where the tennis ball lands inside the service box and is not touched by the receiver.
ACE inhibitors:
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors:
contraindicated in b/l renal agenesis...
captopril is fast and short acting(imagine pakistan CAPTAIN shahid afridi=fast scoring but gets out quickly..therefore fast and
short acting)..so no time to produce active metabolite.its the only ace inhibitor that cause postural hypotension.......also
remember this was the first ACE inhibitor developed(captain has to be the first)
lisiNOpril and captopril=no active metabolite.......
all ace inhibitors except fosenopril and moexipril are excreted through kidneys
Baseline: Line at the farthest ends of the court indicating the boundary of the area of play. If the ball goes over the base it will
be the other player's point.
If the BASELINE fetal heart rate is less than 110 beats/min, it is termed bradycardia; if the baseline rate is greater than 160
beats/min, it is termed tachycardia.
Intermittent Pyrexia
The elevated temperature touches the BASELINE temperature in between in a 24 hour period…seen in malaria,kala azar…
ATP: Acronym for Association of Tennis Professionals, the main organizing body of men's professional tennis.
HMP pathway does not generate ATP(adenosine triphosphate).
The specialized mammalian tissue/organ in which fuel oxidation serves not to produce ATP but to generate heat is:=brown
adipose tissue
Yield of ATP from complete oxidation of glucose is lower in muscle and brain than in kidney, liver and heart because different
shuttle mechanisms operate to transfer electrons from the cytosol to the mitochondria in two sets of tissues….
BREAK point: Point which, if won by the receiver, would result in a break of service; arises when the score is 30–40 or 40–ad.
BREAK POINT chlorination indicates:Point where free residual chlorine starts appearing.
ERROR: A shot that does not land (correctly) in the opponent's court, resulting in the loss of a point.
All of the following about standard error are true except? (AIPG 2011)
All of the following about standard error are true except? (AIPG 2011

A As the sample size increase S. E. increase
B As the sample size increase S. E. decrease
C It is a measure of the extent to which the sample means deviate from the true population mean
D SE is inversely related to the square root of the sample size
Answer is A
Error: type I (alpha) vs. type II (beta)
Type I (Alpha) Error:"There Is An Effect" where in reality there is none.
Rejecting a null hypothesis when it is true is called as?
Type 1 error
FOLLOWTHROUGH: Portion of a swing after the ball is hit.
What is the imaging study of choice for the diagnosis of partial small bowel obstruction?
ans.barium FOLLOW THROUGH
Commonest radiological appearance of gastric carcinoma (in barium follow through) is - filling defect in antrum / body of
stomach.
NO MANS LAND: Area between the service line and the baseline, where a player is most vulnerable.
Which area in the hand is known as the 'no man's land?
Ans. That area between the distal palmar crease and the proximal inter¬ phalangeal joint.
This area is also called the Dangerous area of hand i.e., the area of Pulleys. Results of tendon repair are very bad in this area.
NET: Interlaced fabric, cord, and tape stretched across the entire width of the court; it is held up by the posts
Net protein utilisation:
It is the ratio of total nitrogen retained by total nitrogen intake multiplied by 100
NPU can range from 1 to 0 with value of 1 indicating 100 % utilization of dietary nitrogen as protein and a value of zero
indicating none of the nitrogen supplied converted to protein
SET POINT: Situation in which the player who is leading needs one more point to win a set.
The elevation in body temperature in fever is due to resetting of the HYPOTHALAMIC SET POINT mediated by cytokines.
STROKE: Striking of the ball .
Definitionof stroke:AONDOVE(abrupt onset neurological deficit of vascular etiology)
Pontine Stroke is associated with all except :
A. Bilateral pin point pupil
B. Pyrexia
C. Vagal palsy
D. Quadriparesis
Correct answer : C. Vagal palsy
Vagal palsy is not a component of pontine stroke.

d. It is susceptible to phage 5.
pk vs ph of a drug:
When the pK of a drug equals the pH of the surroundings, 50% ionization occurs; that is, equal numbers of ionized and un-
ionized species are present.
A lower pK reflects a stronger acid; a higher pK corresponds to a stronger base
Drugs with different pK values will diffuse across membranes at different rates.
The pH of the biologic fluid in which the drug is dissolved affects the degree of ionization and, therefore, the rate of drug
transport.
alien hand=cortico basal degeneration (This disorder involves the failure of an individual to control the movements of his or
her hand, which results from the sensation that the limb is “foreign.” The movements of the alien hand are a reaction to
external stimuli and do not occur sporadically or without stimulation. )
