A t test is a type of statistical test that is used to compare the means of two groups. It is one of the most widely used statistical hypothesis tests in pain studies. There are two types of statistical inferences: parametric and nonparametric methods. Parametric methods refer to a statistical technique in which one defines the probability distribution of probability variables and makes inferences about the parameters of the distribution. In cases in which the probability distribution cannot be defined, nonparametric methods are employed. T tests are a type of parametric method; they can be used when the samples satisfy the conditions of normality, equal variance, and independence. In this case the data is parametric, comparing two independent samples from the same population.

In acute angle closure glaucoma (AACG) there is a rise in IOP secondary to an impairment of aqueous outflow. Management options include reducing aqueous secretions with acetazolamide and inducing pupillary constriction with topical pilocarpine.

The combination of frequent infections, eczema, and thrombocytopaenia are characteristic of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, which is due to an abnormality in the WASP gene. It is an X-linked recessive disorder that causes primary immunodeficiency owing to a combined B- and T-cell dysfunction.

The other listed options are:
1. PKD1: polycystic kidney disease
2. CFTR: cystic fibrosis
3. HFE1: haemochromatosis
4. RET: multiple endocrine neoplasia, Hirschsprung’s disease

The patient presents with flank pain and fever with haematuria and proteinuria associated with a social history of not being in a steady relationship. This patient is a young presumably sexually active female, so the diagnosis is most likely pyelonephritis which has an increased incidence in young sexually active women or men of >50 years of age.

The farmer has most likely ingested an organophosphate insecticide.
Organophosphorus compounds are used widely as:
• Insecticides – Malathion, parathion, diazinon, dichlorvos
• Nerve gases – Soman, sarin, tabun, VX
• Ophthalmic agents – Echothiophate
• Antihelmintics – Trichlorfon
• Herbicides – merphos
• Industrial chemical (plasticizer) – Tricresyl phosphate
Signs and symptoms of Organophosphorus Poisoning (OPP) can be classified as:
• Muscarinic effects:
o Cardiovascular – Bradycardia, hypotension
o Respiratory – Rhinorrhoea, bronchorrhea, bronchospasm, cough, severe respiratory distress
o Gastrointestinal – Hypersalivation, nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, faecal incontinence
o Genitourinary – Incontinence
o Ocular – Blurred vision, miosis
o Glands – Increased lacrimation, diaphoresis
• Nicotinic effects:
o Muscle fasciculation, weakness, cramping, diaphragmatic failure, and autonomic side effects include: hypertension, tachycardia, and mydriasis.
• Central nervous system (CNS) effects:
o Anxiety, emotional lability, restlessness, confusion, ataxia, tremors, seizures, coma, apnoea
Mainstay Treatment:
• Decontamination
• Securing Airway, Breathing and Circulation
• Atropine
• Pralidoxime
• Benzodiazepines

Current guidelines recommend the use of ambrisentan, Bosentan (recommendation I, level of evidence A) and macitentan (I, B) in patients with PAH and WHO functional class II and III. In WHO functional class IV, the first-line drug is Epoprostenol and the recommendation for Endothelin receptor antagonists is weaker (IIb, C).

The most appropriate steps of initial management include iv glucagon and iv isoprenaline.

The most likely diagnosis in the above scenario (decreased conscious level, profound hypertension, and bradycardia) is β-blocker toxicity/overdose.
Bronchospasm rarely occurs in an overdose of β-blockers, except where there is a history of asthma.

Immediate management is to give iv glucagons (50–150μg/kg) followed by infusion to treat hypotension and isoprenaline or atropine to treat bradycardia.
Where patients fail to respond to these measures, temporary pacing may be required.
If the patient is seen within the first 4 hours of the overdose, gastric lavage may be of value.

The most possible diagnosis is a pituitary tumour. Pituitary tumours compress the optic chiasm inferiorly and can cause visual field defects (bitemporal hemianopia or quadrantanopia). Temporal arteritis usually develops in older people and acute glaucoma usually requires a family history. Amaurosis fugax is classed as a stroke and usually leads to reversible unilateral vision loss. A subconjunctival haemorrhage does not typically produce the symptoms described.

After renal transplant, asymptomatic patients can still have graft dysfunction as an early complication, with rising serum creatinine; therefore, urine and blood cultures should be ordered first. This should be followed by measuring the Tacrolimus levels, as this drug can be directly nephrotoxic. Next, a Doppler ultrasound of the transplant site should be ordered, to check for any obstructions or occlusions.

The ECG findings are suggestive of anterior myocardial infarction and the most likely artery affected is the left anterior descending artery. Occlusion of the right coronary artery will be shown by ST elevation in lead II, III, aVF and occlusion of the circumflex artery will show changes in leads I, aVL, V5 and V6. To have ST elevation, there should be complete occlusion of the artery.
