| Uses In dentistry of NSAIDs | Temporary relief of mild/moderate detnal pain or inflammation 1-7 days |
| Effective NSAID for dentistry | Ibuprofen |
| Analgesic but not anti-inflammatory | Paracetamol |
| Contraindication for NSAIDs | Empty stomach ibuprofen |
| Aspirin actions | Analgesic |
| Why is aspirin irreversible | COX is blocked permanently as no nucleus |
| Paracetamol effects | Analgesic and antipyretic but poor anti-inflammatory |
| Lipoxygenase inhibitor example | Zileuton |
| Mural thrombi | Not fully occluded |
| Occluding thrombi | Fully occluded |
| Ischaemia | Reduced blood supply to a tissue or organ |
| Infarction | Death of tissue due to ischaemia |
| MI types | Transmural most common |
| Posterior myocardial infarction is due to | Thrombosis of right coronary artery |
| Gangrene is | Tissue necrosis plus added bacterial infection |
| Metaplasia | Replacement of one cell type for another |
| Dysplasia | Disordered cell growth due to an accumulation of non lethal mutuations |
| Tumour | Mass or swelling |
| Neoplasm | Abnormal mass of tissue, the growth of which exceeds as is uncoordinated with that of the normal tissues and persists in the same excessive manner after cessation of stiumuli which evoked the change |
| Benign | Neoplasm which is localised and cannot spread |
| Malignant | A neoplasm which can invade and destroy adjacent structures and spread to distant sites |
| Metastatis | Spread of cancer to a distal site |
| Driver mutations | Push cells to malignant phenotype |
| Passenger mutations | Are inconsequential |
| Classification of neoplasms | Behaviour- benign or malignant |
| Bone pain may prelude | Metastatic deposits |

| Hemicholinium- no clin. uses mechanism | Competitive inhibitor of the choline carrier |
| Vesamicol works by | Preventing storage of ACh (via vesicular ACh transporter) |
| Bottulin toxin prevents | Exocytosis |
| Bottulin used to treat | Salivary dlrooling |
| Neostigmine and physostigmine are- | Cholinesterase inhibitors |
| Suxamenthonium works by | Agonising nicotinic receptors over two sub parts of the receptor which desensitises the receptors cauisng paralsysis |
| What are butylcholinesterases | Non specific cholinesterases |
| Complication with suxamenthonium | Is broken down by butrycholinesterases some individuals genetically lack this systemic enzyme meaning suxamenthoniuma has a paralysising effect |
| What are galantamine and rivastigimine | Nicotinic allosteric potentiating ligands |
| Decarmethonium is selective for | Nicotinic skeletal muscle |
| Antimuscarinics work via | Inhibition of parasympathetic nervous system |
| What is atropine used to treat | Bradycardia |
| Pirenzepine is used to | Decrease gut motility and secretions |
| Why is atropine given presurgery | Decreases secretions therefore decreasing AChEI side effects |

| What is critical stenosis | At least in 75% reduction in vessel size which cant be compensated for by vasodilation |
| What does hypertension lead to | Hypertrophy |
| What is sarcoidosis | Where inflammatory cells clump together to make a clump of cells forming a granuloma |
| What is stenosis | Failure of the valve to open completely |
