Mnemonic:
- Larger the alphabets, larger the diameter (V>F>B)
- Diameters with “sub” prefix are smaller than counterpart without it.
Mnemonic: MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy) in increasing order.
Thyroid Hormone Functions Mnemonic: 7 X B’s Thyroid Hormone Synthesis Mnemonic: ATE ICE 1. Active transport of iodide: 2. Thyroglobulin (rich in Tyrosine): formed in follicular ribosomes 3. Exocytosis of thyroglobulin into follicular lumen: stored as colloid 4. Iodination: Peroxidase enzyme – 5. Coupling: 6. Endocytosis: of T3 and T4…
Jod = Addition in Hindi or Nepali = Iodine induced Hyperthyroidisim ChaikOFF = Thyroid hormone synthesis is switched OFF = Iodine induced Hypothyroidisim Mechanism Jod-Basedow Wolff-Chaikoff Pre-requisite Abnormal thyroid gland free from pituitary control Thyroid gland under pituitary control Conditions Endemic goitre, Grave’s disease, Toxic multinodular goitre, Thyroid adenoma Normal…
Cell Wall Synthesis Inhibitors A peptidoglycan monomer consists of 2 joined amino-sugars, N-acetyl glucosamine (NAG) and N-acetyle muramic acid (NAM), with a pentapeptide coming off of the NAM. So, a peptidoglycan monomer is a NAG-NAM-pentapeptide. These peptidoglycan monomers are synthesized in cytosol and transported across cytoplasmic membrane by Bactoprenols (BP)….
Very useful information
why is submentovertical diameter less than mentovertical
Because it is measured from a closer point to the back of the head.
Bcz it is made by God n we can not change it
submento is from the side of the chin to vertex.so that is why it is smaller than mento vertical.
Pic is informative, could have been more clear graphically
