Pediatric Immunization NCLEX Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Immunostimulatory complexes (ISCOMS) can be used for mucosal vaccines and induce widespread mucosal immunity in the gut and respiratory tract. They are the one way that response can be promoted.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: ISCOMS enhance cytotoxic T cell responses, critical for mucosal immunity.
Question 2 of 5
A patient is being seen for recurrent infections. However, the patient does not seem to think anything special of these infections and there has been no previous diagnosis other than the infections. Lab work reveals abnormalities with hypochlorous acid and H2O2 conversion. Which of the following is the most likely?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Myeloperoxidase deficiency impairs hypochlorous acid production from H2O2, leading to mild recurrent infections.
Question 3 of 5
A patient encounters the helminth Onchcerca volvulus after swimming in a parasite-infested river in West Africa. Following interaction with the patient's innate immune system, one would expect and hope for the development of which subtype of T cells in response to the organism?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Helminth infections, such as Onchocerca volvulus, typically induce a Th2 response, which is critical for combating extracellular parasites through the activation of eosinophils and production of IgE.
Question 4 of 5
Fab Fragment?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The Fab fragment, produced by papain digestion, retains the antigen-binding site of an antibody, consisting of one light chain and part of a heavy chain.
Question 5 of 5
The normal immunological control of tumors is referred to as?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Immune surveillance describes the immune system's role in recognizing and eliminating tumor cells.
