Which structure(s) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) release inflammatory
mediators such as proteolytic enzymes, oxygen-free radicals, prostaglandins,
leukotrienes, and platelet-activating factor? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Neutrophils

In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), alveoli and respiratory bronchioles fill
with fluid as a result of which mechanism? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Inactivation of
surfactant and the impairment of type II alveolar cells

Which immunoglobulin (Ig) may contribute to the pathophysiologic characteristics of
asthma - <<<<ANSWERS>>>IgE

Clinical manifestations of inspiratory and expiratory wheezing, dyspnea, nonproductive
cough, and tachypnea are indicative of which condition? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Asthma

Which factor contributes to the production of mucus associated with chronic bronchitis?
- <<<<ANSWERS>>>Increased Goblet cell size

Clinical manifestations of decreased exercise tolerance, wheezing, shortness of breath,
and productive cough are indicative of which respiratory disorder? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Chronic bronchitis

Clinical manifestations that include unexplained weight loss, dyspnea on exertion, use
of accessory muscles, and tachypnea with prolonged expiration are indicative of which
respiratory disorder? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Emphysema

Clinical manifestations of inspiratory crackles, increased tactile fremitus, egophony, and
whispered pectoriloquy are indicative of which respiratory condition? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Pneumonia

,What medical term is used to identify the presence of pus in the pleural space? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Empyema

Bronchiolitis tends to occur during the first years of life and is most often caused by
what type of infection? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)




Understanding the various steps of proteolytic cascades, such as caspase-mediated
apoptosis and complement cascades, may be useful in designing drug therapy for
which human diseases? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Autoimmune and malignant disorders

Why is it possible for potassium to diffuse easily into and out of cells? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>The resting plasma membrane is more permeable to potassium

The loss of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) during ischemia causes cells to -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>swell because of the influx of sodium chloride

Free radicals play a major role in the initiation and progression of which diseases -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and ischemic heart
disease

Free Radicals cause cell damage by: - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Giving up an electron, which
causes injury to the chemical bonds of the cell membrane

What is a consequence of plasma membrane damage to the mitochondria? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Influx of calcium ions halts ATP production.

What is a consequence of leakage of lysosomal enzymes during chemical injury? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Enzymatic digestion of the nucleus and nucleolus occurs, halting
DNA synthesis.

Which statement is a description of the characteristics of apoptosis? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Programmed cell death of scattered, single cells

, During cell injury caused by hypoxia, an increase in the osmotic pressure occurs within
the cell because - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Sodium chloride enters the cell

What physiologic change occurs during heat exhaustion? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Hemoconcentration occurs because of the loss of salt and water.

In hypoxic injury, sodium enters the cell and causes swelling because -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>ATP is insufficient to maintain the pump that keeps sodium out of
the cell.

What is the cause of free calcium in the cytosol that damages cell membranes by
uncontrolled enzyme activation? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Depletion of ATP normally
pumps calcium from the cell.

What is the single most common cause of cellular injury? - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Hypoxic
injury

During cell injury caused by hypoxia, sodium and water move into the cell because -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>The pump that transports sodium out of the cell cannot function
because of a decrease in ATP levels.

Current research has determined that chemical-induced cellular injury: -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Is often the result of the damage caused by reactive free radicals.

A major determinant of the resting membrane potential necessary for the transmission
of nerve impulses is the ratio between - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Intracellular and
extracellular K+

During acidosis, the body compensates for the increase in serum hydrogen ions by
shifting hydrogen ions into the cell in exchange for which electrolyte? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Potassium

Causes of hyperkalemia include: - <<<<ANSWERS>>>Renal failure and Addison
disease

In hyperkalemia, what change occurs to the cells' resting membrane potential? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Hypopolarization

The calcium and phosphate balance is influenced by which three substances? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Parathyroid hormone, calcitonin, and vitamin D

It is true that Kussmaul respirations indicate: - <<<<ANSWERS>>>A compensatory
measure is needed to correct metabolic acidosis.

Chvostek and Trousseau signs indicate which electrolyte imbalance? -
<<<<ANSWERS>>>Hypocalcemia
