A lumbar puncture is performed, and a Gram stain of the CSF obtained shows many short, gram-positive rods. Photo includes CSF stain with short gram-positive rods. Why was the CSF obtained? What are the dangers with collecting this type of specimen? What tests would you run? Does the fact that the patient was a dairy farmer give anything of value to the diagnosis? What is the most likely diagnosis and treatment? No references, just homework Please include references

Clinical Case Study: An Overweight Man with Tingling, Thirst, and Blurred Vision A 46-year-old man visited an ophthalmologist because of recent episodes of blurry vision. In addition to examining the man’s eyes, the ophthalmologist took a medical history and assessed the patient’s overall health. The patient was 6 feet tall and weighed 265 pounds (BMI equal to 36 kg/m2). He had recently been experiencing “tingling” sensations in his hands and feet and was sleeping poorly because he was waking up several times during the night with a full bladder. He had also taken to carrying bottled water with him wherever he went, because he often felt very thirsty. He reported that he worked as a taxicab driver and rarely if ever had occasion to engage in much physical activity or exercise. The patient attributed the tingling sensations to “sitting in one position all day” and was convinced that his eye prob- lems were the natural result of aging. Examination of the eyes, however, revealed a…

Visit this site (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/NYTmeningitis) to read about a man who wakes with a headache and a loss of vision. His regular doctor sent him to an ophthalmologist to address the vision loss. The ophthalmologist recognizes a greater problem and immediately sends him to the emergency room. Once there, the patient undergoes a large battery of tests, but a definite cause cannot be found. A specialist recognizes the problem as meningitis, but the question is what caused it originally. How can that be cured? The loss of vision comes from swelling around the optic nerve, which probably presented as a bulge on the inside of the eye. Why is swelling related to meningitis going to push on the optic nerve?
A 35 year old half Filipino- half Pakistan presented to the outpatient department of dermatology at CVMC, with chief complaints of numerous hyperpigmented lesions on the proximal arms and on the upper back of approximately 5 months’ duration. The lesions become so itchy with the change of weather or when the affected parts got sweating. There was no other cutaneous or systemic complaints. His past health was unremarkable. The physical examination revealed numerous sharply demarcated brownish macules and patches on the arms and back. The size of the lesions ranged 3- 6 mm in diameter. Under the wood lamp examination, some of the lesions fluoresced into yellowish gold. Questions: Based on the clinical appearance of the lesions, what diagnosis can you infer? This is caused by what organism? If the scrapings from lesions will be tested for 10% KOH, what pattern or appearance can be seen under the microscope? What causes the hyperpigmentation of the lesions? What can be done to treat and…
