This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Bob Dillon, IgG Neutrophilic infiltration into vasculature following antibody deposition causes systemic and local vasculitis Vasculitis, Robert Dillon 28 y/o male presents to the ED with Rash, Macrophages MHC proteins are on the surface of Macrophages MHC Molecules, IL-6 Il-6 is a pyrogen that causes fever Fever, Macrophages Lymphocytes induce inflammation and activate macrophages to remove target cells Type IV Hypersensitivity, Immunosuppressants can cause severe leukopenia which is a decrease in the number of T-cells T-helper cells, PPD test is read after 48-72 hours; if positive, will have a large red rash at site of injection Rash, Corticosteroids are all classified as immunosuppressants Immunosuppressants, Type II Hypersensitivity IgG or IgM bind to the cell receptor Antibody-mediated, IgM Neutrophilic infiltration into vasculature following antibody deposition causes systemic and local vasculitis Vasculitis, Sulfonamides Can cause Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, Antibody-mediated Antibodies against postsynaptic nicotinic receptors cause Myasthenia Gravis, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome untreated SJS can lead to Shock, Robert Dillon 28 y/o male currently takes immunosuppresives s/p liver transplant Mycophenolate Mofetil, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome presents as a severe rash Rash, Mycophenolate Mofetil are all classified as immunosuppressants Immunosuppressants, Sulfonamides In rare cases, can cause anaphylaxis Type I Hypersensistivity, Serum Sickness ???? Fever, Complement leads to activation of neutrophils contributing to neutrophilic infiltration Vasculitis, Poststreptococcal Glomulonephritis causes of Type III HS Type III Hypersensitivity
