A

redness (rubor)
pain (dolor)
heat (calor)
swelling (tumor)
loss of function (functio laesa)

70
Q

-a non-specific, defensive process of the body to tissue damage.
-an attempt to dispose of microbes, toxins, or foreign material at the site of injury

A

INFLAMMATION

71
Q

prime symptom of inflammation

due to inflammation,joints and muscles might feel pain.In particular,the inflamed areas maybe sensitive to touch

A

Pain (Dolor)

72
Q

due to inflammation,there is more blood flow to the area

A

Heat (Calor)

73
Q

as the blood flow more to the inflamed area, the blood vessels of the area will be filled withmore blood than normal.Due to which the inflamed area will appear red in the color.

A

Redness (Rubor)

74
Q

the primary cause of swelling is accumulated fluid in the tissues or outside the blood vesseleither in a particular area or throughout the body.

A

Swelling (tumor)

75
Q

the immobility may result from the pain that restrains movement or from severe swelling thatkeeps the movement in the area

A

Loss of function (functio laesa)

76
Q

harmful pathogens of tissue injury (cause)

A

acute inflammation

76
Q

TYPES OF INFLAMMATION

A

ACUTE
CHRONIC

77
Q

pathogens that the body cannot break down including some types of viruses, foreign bodies, that remain in the system, or overreactive immune responses (cause)

A

chronic inflammation

78
Q

duration of acute inflammation

A

few days

79
Q

duration of chronic inflammation

A

months to years

80
Q

two classes of microbial inducers

A

pathogen
virulence factors

81
Q

subdivide into two classes; microbial and non-microbial exogenousinducers

A

Exogenous inducers

82
Q

associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) which are carried by all microorganisms

A

pathogen

83
Q

trigger the inflammatory response due to the effects of their activity.

A

virulence factor

84
Q

include allergens, toxic compounds, irritants, and foreign bodies that are too large to be digested or cause phagosomal damage in macrophages

A

Non-Microbial

85
Q

signals released by tissues that are either dead,damaged,malfunctioned,or stressed. Two large groups - infectious factors and the non-infectious factors

A

Endogenous inducers

86
Q

category includes bacteria,viruses, and other microorganisms

A

Infectious factors

87
Q

due to physical injuries such as frostbite,burn, physical injury, foreignbodies, trauma,ionizing radiation,chemical compounds such as glucose, fatty acids,toxins, alcohol,and chemical irritants such as nickel and other trace elements.

A

Non-Infectious factors

88
Q

A variety of chemical mediators from circulation system, inflammatory cells, and injured tissue actively contribute to and adjust the inflammatory response include (1) vasoactive amines such as histamine and serotonin, (2)peptide (e.g., bradykinin), and (3) eicosanoids (e.g., thromboxanes, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins)

A

mediators

89
Q

mediators

A

histamine
Kinins
Prostaglandins (PGs)
Leukotrienes (LTs)
Complement

90
Q

polypeptide formed from inactive kininogens, induce vasodilation andincreased permeability and serve chemotactic agents for phagocytes

A

kinins

91
Q

mast cells in connective tissue and basophils and platelets in bloodrelease histamine.Neutrophils and macrophages attracted to the site of injury alsostimulate the release of histamine, which causes vasodilation and increasedpermeability of blood vessels

A

histamine

92
Q

lipids especially those of the E series intensify the effects ofhistamine and kinins. Also stimulate the emigration of phagocytes through capillarywalls

A

Prostaglandins (PGs)

93
Q

increased permeability; function in adherence of phagocytes to pathogens and as chemotactic agents and attract phagocytes

A

Leukotrienes (LTs)

93
