CPD questionnaires must be completed online via
www.cpdjournals.co.za After submission you can check the answers and
print your certificate. 1. True (A) or false (B): In diplegia (bilateral spastic cerebral palsy) the lower limbs are more affected than the upper limbs and fine motor function is usually impaired. 2. True (A) or false (B): Periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) is only found in preterm infants. 3. True (A) or false (B): In the Elsies River emergency centre (EC), 70% of trauma cases were caused by violence and 47% of these patients were suspected of being under the influence of alcohol. 4. True (A) or false (B): Most trauma patients reporting to the Elsies River EC were males aged between 19 and 35 years. 5. True (A) or false (B): 6. True (A) or false (B): Factors predisposing to suicide attempts include female gender, physical illness, occupation and marital status. 7. True (A) or false (B): In the study of tricyclic antidepressant overdose carried out at Tygerberg Academic Hospital, the mortality rate was particularly high. 8. True (A) or false (B): Low doses of systemic isotretinoin rarely cure even minor degrees of acne vulgaris. 9. True (A) or false (B): Potential adverse effects of systemic isotretinoin include depression and suicidal ideation. 10. True (A) or false (B): Globally, the only drugs recommended for maintenance treatment of acne, after initial clearance, are topical retinoids and hormonal treatment in females, which may be combined. 11. True (A) or false (B): Topical retinoids seem to have no teratogenic effect when used in pregnancy, but have not been cleared for use in pregnant women. 12. True (A) or false (B): Carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT) serves as a marker of preclinical atherosclerosis. 13. True (A) or false (B): Most women with fragility fractures have osteopenia and not osteoporosis. 14. True (A) or false (B): Prediction of fracture risk is claimed not to be improved by using multiple sites for the measurement of bone mineral density. 15. True (A) or false (B): Bone mineral density accounts for only 50% of bone strength, which means that many factors related to BMD and independent of BMD affect both bone strength and fracture risk. 16. True (A) or false (B): Only 30-40% of post-exercise respiratory tract symptoms are caused by infections. 17. True (A) or false (B): Athletes experience lower rates of allergic disease than the general population. 18. True (A) or false (B): Medical co-morbidity was the cause of death in over half of deaths in patients with bleeding peptic ulcers who underwent successful primary endotherapy. 19. True (A) or false (B): Rebleeding after primary endotherapy was a risk factor for death by day 3 after a bleeding peptic ulcer. 20. True (A) or false (B): The need for surgical intervention in bleeding peptic ulcer was a direct predictor of mortality. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Read the journal. All the answers will be found there. 2.
