Unfortunately, we now plagued with COVID-19, a disease that is caused by a novel Coronavirus (aka Severe acute respiratory syndrome, SARS-CoV-2). However, there is a significant percentage of those infected with the virus who show mild to no symptoms. On the other hand, others die from the disease complications in a short period of time.

Why is there such a contrasting effect on our human population?

If another cycle or season of the corona virus appears, what are your expectations of the outcomes?

Case Study 1

Sample A is from a 35 year old male who visited his GP complaining of chest pain during exercise. An ECG taken at rest was normal but ischaemic changes developed on exercise. A family history revealed that his father died of a heart attack at the age of 45 years. The laboratory test results for his fasting blood sample were as follows:

Analyte                       Patient values                        Reference range for fasting

     blood sample

Sodium                                    139                              135-145 mmol/L

Potassium                                4.1                               3.0-5.0 mmol/L

Total protein                           69                                65-80 g/L

Albumin                                  35                                35-47 g/L

Calcium                                  9.3                               9.0-10.5 mg/dl

Lactate dehydrogenase           250                              90-190 IU/L

Creatine kinase                       129                              30-60 IU/L

Asparatate transaminase         70                                < 40 IU/L

Gamma glutamyl transferase 30                                < 50 IU/L

Total Bilirubin                        13                                0.4-15 μmol/L

Glucose                                   12                                3.5-5.5 mmol/L

Fructosamine                          351                              205-285 μmol/L

Cholesterol                             

            Total                            7.2                               <5.2mmol/L

            HDL                            1.4                               >1.5 mmol/L

            LDL                            ?                                  <3.5 mmol/L

Triglycerides                           2.95                             <1.7mmol/L

On the gradient gel electrophoresis, plasma sample for this patient showed the presence of small dense LDL particle.

  1. Calculate and comment on the LDL cholesterol values. What does the presence of small dense LDL mean?
  2. How many cardiovascular risk factors does this patient have?
  3. Discuss the type of hyperlipidaemia this patient is likely to have.
  4. What further tests and dietary/drug treatments would you recommend for this patient?

2. Jolene wakes suddenly to her alarm clock and realizes that she is late for her 9:15am CBIO2210 class. She jumps to her feet, feels dizzy and lightheaded for a moment, then hops into the shower. Draw a diagram / flowchart / picture of the sequence of events that occurred when she jumped up that overcame her dizzy feeling and prevented her from losing consciousness. Include the receptors, the control center, at least one effector site, information traveling between receptors / control center / effectors, and the response.
