A 65-year-old male patient presents to the ER with a
gnawing-type discomfort in the epigastrum. He notices it
periodically 1-3 hours after he eats and sometimes awakens him
while sleeping. His vital signs are all within normal limits. A
stool for occult blood is negative. His CBC is within normal
limits. What is the next step in treating this
patient?
Ferritin and TIBC
studies
Vitamin B12 and folate
Consult
GI
Discharge home
64.
The primary advantage of targeted molecular therapies for
cancer, such as monoclonal antibodies (e.g., trastuzumab,
cetuximab), is that
they:
Are expressed in cancer cells but not in vital organs and
tissue
Have measurably less toxicity and clinical adverse effect
Cost significantly less than nontargeted chemotherapies
Require a much shorter treatment time
65.
When choosing empiric treatment for a patient that is suspected
to have a ventilator-associated pneumonia, what type of organism
(s) are important to cover with broad-spectrum antibiotics?

comes to the urgent care with lethargy. She states she could run 3
miles and now can barely walk a mile. CBC reveals: Hgb 10.1 g/dl,
Hct 30%, MCV 75 fL, RDW 21%. What other lab test should be ordered
to confirm the diagnosis?
Vitamin B12 Level
Folate Level
Ferritin level
Hemoglobin electrophoresis level
69. You are evaluating a patient with a chief complaint of
flank pain and gross hematuria. You palpate an abdominal mass.
Which lab or diagnostics should be ordered?
Cystoscopy
CA-125
level.
Prostate-specific antigen
level
CT abdomen and pelvis

differential diagnosis?
