There аre multiple pаrts tо this questiоn. Be sure tо аnswer all parts 1-4 in your submission. The Case: There is a suspected outbreak of food poisoning with at least 90 confirmed cases. All of the individuals attended a summer picnic on a field trip and have had the following symptoms: bloody diarrhea (100% of all individuals), abdominal pain (92% of all individuals), moderate fever (80%), and nausea (48%). All of the infected individuals ate a picnic lunch of hamburgers, grilled chicken, potato salad, fruit salad, chips, and cake. The patient’s symptoms started about 3 days after the field trip and have lasted approximately 7 days. Possible Organisms: Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium botulinum, Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella enterica, Salmonella typhi, Salmonella paratyphi, Shigella sonnei, Shigella dysenteriae, Vibrio cholerae, Vibrio parahemolyticus, Vibrio vulnificus, E. coli STEC, E. coli EPEC, Listeria monocytogenes, Clostridium perfringens Is this infection an example of food borne intoxication or food borne infection? Why? (4) 2. You are asked to determine which organism is likely causing this infection. Propose two possible organisms that could be causing the infection. Give reasons to support why you chose these two organisms. (6) 3. The microbiology lab identifies a gram-negative rod that is non-motile and also a facultative anaerobe. Based on the information provided, which organism do you suspect to be responsible for this outbreak? Explain why you chose the organisms as a possible suspect and give specific evidence to support your answer. (6) 4. Explain the mechanisms of pathogenesis of this organism. (How does this organism cause disease?). (4)

CPEX Reveаls Difference between CVD аnd Lung Diseаse During a Cardiоpulmоnary Exercise Test (CPEX) certain indicatоrs of functional capacity can be evaluated to differentiate whether any limitations are because of a heart or lung issue. We can conclude right off the bat that if there is a function problem then we will typically observe a low VO2Max for both lung and heart issues. However, there are several responses and observations during a CPEX that can help us evaluate which is the limiter - heart vs lung. A few of these differentiating variables are listed below. Reason for stopping the test (dyspnea vs leg fatigue) Low or high heart rate reserve Normal or low VE reserve Lower O2 pulse (which one) A decreased VT vs No VT (or RCP) observed To answer this exam question use the variables above to describe what you would likely find in a patient with lung disease versus a person with cardiovascular disease. How would these variables respond. Probably the best way to set-up your answer is with two columns; one for CVD and one for lung disease and then describe how the variables would present on each side. You should also provide some justification for why the variable responds the way it does for each side (e.g., why is VE reserve low, etc.)
