Syllabus
  • Laboratory tests in clinical biochemistry. Sources of error, assessing the significance of a test result. Enzyme assays in clinical diagnostics. Plasma lipoproteins, interconversion of lipoproteins. Cholesterol transport, balance of cholesterol intake and excretion. Blood glucose (sources, comsumption, regulation). Diabetes mellitus. 1st written test (Sources of error of biochemical tests, assessing the significance of results. Digestion, absorption and transport of lipids, lipoproteins, cholesterol, metabolism of lipids at the tissue and organ level, metabolism of steroid hormones, metabolism of glucose in the absorptive, postabsorptive state, and in prolonged fasting (the liver, adipose tissue, and muscle), diabetes and impairments of saccharide metabolism.) *) Catabolism of proteins and of amino acid nitrogen. Proteins in nutrition. Absorption of amino acids, utilization of amino acids in tissues, blood transport of fixed ammonia, the glutamine cycle. Nitrogenous compounds excreted into the urine. Protein intake and nitrogen balance. Integration of metabolism of nutrients: relationships among the major metabolic pathways in the fed state, postabsorptive state, and prolonged starvation. The liver functions – the role in metabolism of nutrients, hormones, and vitamins. Catabolism of haemoglobin, urobilinoids, the types of hyperbilirubinaemia. Biotransformation of xenobiotics. 2nd written test (Proteins in nutrition, nitrogen metabolism, integration of intermediary metabolism of nutrients, biochemical functions of the liver, catabolism of haemoglobin, metabolism of xenobiotics.) Neurotransmitter and hormone receptors. Water and mineral metabolism. Electrolyte composition of blood plasma, buffer bases. Respiration – transport of oxygen and CO2. The role of the kidney and the liver in acid-base balance. Blood acid-base parameters, the values indicating particular type of disturbance. 3rd written test (Immunochemical techniques, neurotransmitter and hormone receptors, water and mineral metabolism, iontograms, acid-base balance.) Major functions of the kidney. Glomerular filtration. Tubular resorption and secretion. Urine - normal constituents, amounts of nitrogenous compounds excreted per 24 h. The proteinuria types. Urinary sediment, renal stones. Biochemistry of Ca, P, F. Composition of bones and teeth, saliva. Written test for the students who did not reach the required result in preceding tests. Consultations. Credits.
