Question

Match List I with List II 

 

• A. A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
• B. A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I
• C. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
• D. A-I, B-IV, C-II, D-III

Hint:

Remember that "Campylobacter jejuni" is the most common bacterial precursor linked to the autoimmune condition "Guillain-Barré syndrome" (C-IV).
Combining this with "TORCH test" where T stands for Toxoplasmosis (A-III) confirms option (B).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Veterinary public health and zoonoses involve a vast array of clinical syndromes, diagnostic skin tests, and unique pathological descriptions linking animal pathogens to human health conditions.

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let us analyze each pair:
- A. TORCH test: This is a medical screening panel for pregnant women to detect congenital infections.
The letter "T" in the TORCH acronym stands for Toxoplasmosis (caused by Toxoplasma gondii).
Thus, A matches with III.
- B. Hanger-Rose Skin Test: This is a historical intradermal diagnostic test utilizing antigen prepared from lymph node pus to diagnose Cat scratch disease (caused by Bartonella henselae).
Thus, B matches with II.
- C. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS): This acute autoimmune polyneuropathy in humans is strongly linked to antecedent gastrointestinal infection with Campylobacter spp. (specifically C. jejuni) due to molecular mimicry between campylobacter lipooligosaccharides and human nerve gangliosides.
Thus, C matches with IV.
- D. Scrofula: This is a classic historical medical term referring to tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Mycobacterium bovis infection of the lymph nodes of the neck.
Thus, D matches with I.

Step 3: Final Answer:
Matching these parameters yields: A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I, which corresponds to option (B).
