Book Description | وصف الكتاب

This third edition of “Infection Module – Questions” is meticulously designed for undergraduate medical students. It offers a comprehensive bank of Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) and Short Essay Questions (SEQs) covering the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases. The book adopts an integrated, system-based approach linking microbiological concepts to clinical relevance.

The content spans across all foundational medical sciences, including:

• Pathology (e.g., tuberculosis, syphilis, leprosy, schistosomiasis, sarcoidosis, actinomycosis, mycetoma)

• Pharmacology (e.g., cell wall synthesis inhibitors, protein synthesis inhibitors, antimicrobials targeting nucleic acids, treatment of MRSA, Clostridium difficile, and resistant strains)

• Microbiology (e.g., bacterial structure, growth, classification, virology, mycology, host-microbe relationships, infection control)

• Parasitology (e.g., schistosomiasis, filariasis, hydatid disease, protozoal and helminthic infections)

Each question is carefully constructed to simulate clinical scenarios and real exam conditions, allowing students to develop critical thinking and diagnostic reasoning skills.
