Q

Odds ratio?

A

Probability of having the disease (gold standard positive = prevalence)/probability of not having the disease (gold standard negative)

Q

Effect of adenosine on vascular and bronchial tone

A

Vasodilates and bronchoconstricts

21
Q

What is the resultant increase in resistance of a 50% reduction in airway radius?

A

16 fold increase

22
Q

Causes of hypoxemia

A

Vascular right-to-left shunt

23
Q

Difference in action potentials of cardiac and skeletal muscle

A

?
Skeletal muscle dependent on fast sodium channels and slow calcium channels (this seems like it is the same?)
Cardiac have decreased K permeability after action potential starts until ca channels close
Calcium comes from t-tubules in cardiac instead of SR like skeletal

24
Q

MOA cyclosporine and tacrolimus

MOA azathioprine

A
Calcineurin NFAT (nuclear factor activated T cells) inhibitor
Purine analog
25

A

Eosinophils

28
Q

Heartworm classification

A

a. Class 1: asymptomatic to mild heart worm disease no radiographic signs or signs of anemia. May have subjective signs (fatigue/loss of condition
b. Class 2: moderate heartworm disease- radiographic signs of HW and signs of anemia. Mild proteinuria maybe present. Radiographic signs of right ventricular enlargement or slight pulmonary artery enlargement may be noted.
c. Class 3: severe HW disease- guarded prognosis. Cachexia, fatigue, dyspnea, cough, Right sided heart failure. Signs of anemia, proteinuria, severe pulmonary artery enlargement. Patients should be stabilized prior to treatment.
d. Class 4: caval syndrome, surgery first then adulticide treatment.

29
Q

Differences between acanthocheilonema reconditum vs HW
