A

water hammer pulse (peripheral)

40
Q

deviation of infundibular septum

A

TOF

41
Q

ACE is located

A

in small lung (pulm vessels )

thus angio2 is higher in pulm vein compaired to pulm artery

42
Q

angiotensioning eproduced in

A

liver

43
Q

varicose veins are superifical or deep venous system

A

superiical; thus does not increase risk for pulm embolism or phelegmasia alba dolens

44
Q

massive iliofemoral thrombosis cause actue rise in tissue pressure that impairs arterial inflow, leading to

A

phlegmasia alba dolens (painful white milk leg)

45
Q

complicataiosns of varicose veins

A
chronici edema,
stasis dermatitis
skin ulceratison
poor wound healing
infection
46
Q

what causes varicose veins

A

increased intraluminal pressure or loss of vessel wall tesnile strength lead to venous dilation and failure of venous valves.

47
Q

epicardial vessels

A

large confaorny arteris of heart

dilation of arterioles regulates CBF; not arteries

48
Q

why does nulliparity increases risk of ovarian cancer

A

repeated ovulation or even ovarin inferitlity inflict minor trauma to ovarian surfaceb

thus OCP is a protecetive factor: lesss repair at ovarian surface due to reduced lifeteime ovulation frequency

49
Q

protective factors for ovarian cancer

A

breast feeding, ocp’s tubal. ligation; multiparity

50
Q

ovarian tumor that appears yellow due to lipid content in theca cells

A

granulosa cell tumor

51
Q

cuboidal cells in microfollicular patttern around pink eosinophlic center; which ovarian tumor

A

53
Q

bilobed nuclei and inclusion like nucleoli

A

reed sternberg

54
Q

nests of epithelial cells with abundant clear cytoplasm

A

RCC

55
Q

external urethral sphincter vs internal urethral sphincter

A

external: skeletal muscle at distal end of urethra innervated yb pudendal nerve; volunteary constriciton of this matinisn continence
internal: smooth muscle at proximal junction of bladder and uretrha. SNS controls sphincter to constrict

56
Q

increased fetal urintation caused by

A

high cardiac output due to anemia or twin twin tanrsufiosn

polyhydramnios

57
Q

antiepileptic therpay substantial risk factor for

A

NTD

58
Q

PCOS: excess androgen from (increased activyt of 17 a hydroxylase and 3bhsd): prevents

A

prevents developmetn of monthly dominant follicle; resulting in anovulatory cycles
menstraul irregulariy: decereased progesterone secretion
progestorone: inhibitor to estrogen driven proliferation
long term risk for endometiral hyperplasia and carcinoma

59
Q

anterolateral papillary umscle has dual blood supply

A

LAD
LCX

posteromedial papillary doesnto: comes from DPA

60
Q

location right atrium near septal leaflet of tricuspid valve and orifice of coronary sinus

A

AV node

61
Q

compression of IVC by gravid uterus in pregmant women

A

true
reduces venous return
seen in supine hypotension

62
Q

supine hypotension vs orthostatic hypotension

A

orthostatic: upon standing
can be affected by vasovaga l syncope: withdrawla of symp efferent actiivty;
expansion of plasma volume inpregnancy as well as increase in rbc masss

63
Q

neprilysin inhibitor increases effect of

A

endogenous natriuretic peptide

64
Q

SLE and advanced malgianncy

A

nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis

sysetmic embolization can occur

65
Q

why is orthopnea caused

A

actue exacerbation of baseline pulmonary edema that occurs when central venous, pulmonary venous and cardiac filling pressures are increased by redistrubtion of blood that had been pooled in dependent veins back into central circulation

66
Q

constant substernal crushing pain

A

MI pain

pleuriitc sharp

A

periciaridits chest pain

exacerbated by swallowing or ocuhgin

68
Q

69
Q

function of prostacyclin

A

inhibit platelet aggregation; oppsoes thromboxane A2

RV inferiorly

74
Q

repetitive activitigy involving upper costal cartialge at costochrondal or costosternal junctoisn
pain reproduced w palpation and worsened w movement in hcanges of posistion

A

costochrondritis or costosternal sydnroem

75
Q

ventricular repsone in AF is depednetn on transmission of abnormal atrial impulses through

A

AV node
each time av node is excited; it enters refractory period druing which additional atrial impusles cannot be transmitted to ventricles

A

widening of QRS

77
Q

cardiacy hypertorphy w patchy interstiial fibrosis

78
Q

A

restrictive cardiomhyopathy

79
Q

what affects phase 4 of AP; reudicng rate of sponatenous depolarizino in cardiac pacemeaker

A

adenosine and acetylcholline
activate potassium channels and increase potassium conducatance causing membrane potential to remain negative for longerp eriod; adenosnien also hinibits L type ca channels prolonging depolariziation time
