A 12-year-old girl has the sudden onset of severe abdominal pain and back pain. On physical examination her abdomen is diffusely tender, but there are no masses. She is afebrile. A CBC shows Hgb 6.5 g/dL, Hct 19.0%, MCV 99 fL, platelet count 149,000/microliter, and WBC count 11,200/microliter. Examination of her peripheral blood smear shows nucleated RBCs and sickled RBCs. Which of the following types of gene mutation is she most likely to have? O Insertion • Missense O Nonsense O Splice site O Duplication O Deletion.

This 58-year-old nuclear power plant worker saw his family physician because of increasing fatigue and weakness. He also reported pain in his lower back and arms when he walks. Physical examination revealed that the man had pale mucous membranes and hepatosplenomegaly. The physician orders a complete blood count (CBC) and urinalysis (UA). A follow-up appointment is scheduled for the following week. Laboratory Data The CBC revealed that the patient had anemia. His leukocyte count and differential count were normal, except for a rouleaux (rolled coin) appearance of the RBCs. The UA was normal. The patient was called and requested to return to the laboratory for additional tests. The physician ordered an ESR, kidney screening profile, liver blood profile, and radiographic skeletal survey, with the following results: ESR—50 mm/hr Kidney profile—normal Liver profile—normal, except for increased globular protein Skeletal survey—bone lesions in various sites What follow-up laboratory tests…
