eosinophils

34
Q

chronic bronchitis: large airways

A

mucous overproduction

35
Q

chronic bronchitis: small airways

A

scarring

36
Q

T/F: lungs are last organs to dev and first to deteriorate

A

true

37
Q

most common form of emphysema

A

centrilobular

38
Q

emphysema: damage to alveolar walls adjacent to respiratory bronchioles results in –

A

loss of alveolar tissue nd large empty airspaces

39
Q

T/F: small airway fibrosis is present in emphysema and chronic bronchitis

A

true

40
Q

– emphysema is observed in alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency

A

panacinar (panlobular)

41
Q

which part of the lung is worse in emphysema

A

upper lobe

42
Q

– is required to supplement expiration and hold open small airways

A

elasticity

43
Q

loss of elasticity results in – obstruction

A

functional and structural

44
Q

all obstructive disease results in – in expiratory airflow

A

decrease

45
Q

in obstructive disease, lung volume may be increased but – is decreased

A

forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)

46
Q

restrictive disease is defined by –

A

reduced lung capacity (reduced volume or decrease in expansion)

47
Q

T/F: in restrictive lung disease, expiratory function may be normal or reduced

A

true

48
Q

causes of restrictive lung disease

A

intrinsic: infiltrative process in interstitium or extrinsic: chest wall disorder, neuromuscular disorder, obesity

49
Q

there are many different causes for restrictive lung disease but almost half are –

A

idiopathic

50
Q

diffuse infiltrative lung disease results in – that are difficult to expand –> restrictive lung disease

A

firm, less pliable lungs

51
Q

in normal lung, the interstitium is – and consists of capillaries and a few cells in the alveolar wall

A

inconspicuous

52
Q

in interstitial lung disease, the intersitium is – and lung loses its inherent pliability

A

expanded by fibrosis or cells
