Uric Acid
Ankylosing spondylitis causes
Pain and inflammation joints between the vertebrae of the spine and joints between spine and pelvis (sacroiliac joints). Also called spondylitis or rheumatoid spondylitis, ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic condition
Which disorder causes skeletal pain and involves significant bone demineralization from vitamin D deficiency?
Osteomalacia
Healing of a fractured bone with a poor alignment is called
Malunion

All Characteristics of scoliosis
-involvement of lateral curvature of the spine
-increase during periods of rapid growth
-identifiable by uneven shoulders or scapular prominence
-possibility of leading to respiratory complications.
The most common type of osteomyelitis is
Hematogenous
The most common symptom of multiple myeloma is
Bone pain
Primary brain injury
Occurs during the initial insult and results from displacement of the physical structures of the brain
One Stroke Sequelae involves Broca aphasia….what happens here T/F
Stroke affecting the left middle cerebral artery (MCA), one of the most important arteries supplying blood to the brain, can cause damage to Broca's area and lead to Broca's aphasia. Language
In this type of fracture, the fragments of the bone are displaced below the level of the bone surface.
Impacted
The brain can localize a pain sensation to a particular part of the body because nociceptor pathways are kept in specific anatomic order in the cord (sensory dermatome) and somatosensory cortex.
