Q

Response of the Baroreceptors when they are stretched

27
Q

T/F: Patients with autonomic neuropathy
and impaired baroreflex function may have extremely labile blood pressures with difficult-to-control episodic blood pressure spikes.

28
Q

Statement 1: Baroreceptors deteriorate in elderly and can have autonomic neuropathy

a. TF
b. FT
c. TT
d. FF

A

a. TF

Their bodies cannot adapt immediately which causes them to be symptomatic

29
Q

Hormone synthesized in the segment of the renal afferent renal arteriole that abuts the glomerulus and a group of sensory cells located at the distal end of the loop of Henle, the macula densa

30
Q

Primary Stimuli for Renin Secretion

This stimuli leads to hyponatremia

A

↓ NaCl transport in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle

Renin’s job is to increase sodium in the
body

31
Q

Primary Stimuli for Renin Secretion

↓ pressure or stretch within the ___ ___ ___ (baroreceptor mechanism)

A

Renal Afferent Aretriole

32
Q

Less fluid entering the kidney → detected by __ cells → renin secretion

33
Q

T/F: Renin’s job is to also decrease fluid

A

False (Increase)
↑ sodium → water follows (normal mechanism during dehydration)

34
Q

T/F: ↑ sodium → Less urine formation

A

True
D/t kidneys reabsorbing back the water that should come out as urine

35
Q

Primary Stimuli for Renin Secretion

Renin-secreting cells via β1 adrenoreceptors are stimulated by which system?

Clue: Nervousness and agitation stimulates renin

A

Sympathetic Nervous System

36
Q

Does stimulating renin add to the elevation in BP?

A

Yes
↑ sodium reabsorption → ↑ water absorption (more water circulating in the system) → expect elevated BP

37
Q

Renal Pathology Review

Where the blood enters the kidneys, circulates in the capillary tuft; gets cleansed in this system

A

Afferent Arteriole

38
Q

Renal Pathology Review

Wwhere further processing of the urine takes place until it finally forms urine

A

Tubular System

39
Q

Renal Pathology Review

Renin is inhibited by the ff except:
a. ↓ NaCl transport in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle
b. ↑ stretch within the renal afferent arteriole, and by β1 receptor blockade
c. May be modulated by a number of humoral factors, including angiotensin II

A

A.
Should be increase since it is inhibition

40
Q

T/F: Beta receptor blockers like metoprolol, nebivolol and carvedilol are antihypertensive agents causing renin inhibition → preventing increase in BP

41
Q

T/F: Renin stimulates the release of angiotensin II

42
Q

A potent vasoconstrictor in response to low renal arterial pressure or low concentration of filtered sodium in kidneys

A

Angiotensin II

43
Q

Angiotensin is responsible of the ff except:

a. ↑ intracellular calcium/blood vessel wall constriction
b. ↑ sympathetic nervous system activity
c. Inhibits vasopressin release
d. Stimulates aldosterone

A

C. Inhibits vasopressin release

Angiotensin II increases the blood pressure

44
Q

Statement 1: When done excessively, BP will rise excessively causing hypertension
Statement 2: Angiotensin I = found in the kidneys and goes to the lungs to become angiotensin II

a. TF
b. FT
c. TT
d. FF

45
Q

A potent mineralocorticoid that increases sodium reabsorption and promoted water retention

A

Aldosterone

46
Q

Statement 1: Aldosterone may also enlarge the heart and lead to Cardiac hypertrophy
Statement 2: It can also enhance intracellular matrix and collagen deposition within the myocardium

a. TF
b. FT
c. TT
d. FF

A

a. TF
Extracellular

47
Q

Sort the events in order
a. The angiotensinogen peptide gives way to the release of angiotensin I (AI)

b. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) that is found in the lungs will convert AI to angiotensin II (AII)

c. Under normal conditions, AII will stimulate adrenal cortex to secrete aldosterone & pituitary gland resulting to renal sodium & fluid retention in order to maintain homeostasis
d. Excessive AII will be sensed by renin to stop its production (NEGATIVE FEEDBACK MECHANISM)

e. AII promotes cardiac & vascular hypertrophy, systemic vasoconstriction, & inc blood volume ↓

f. Stimuli (i.e., sympathetic stimulation, hypotension, dec sodium delivery) causes the kidneys to secrete renin

A

F→A→B→E→C→D

48
Q

Statement 1: Vascular radius and compliance of resistance arteries are
also important determinants of venous pressure
Statement 2: In hypertensive patients, structural, mechanical, or functional changes may increase lumen diameter of small arteries and arterioles

a. TF
b. FT
c. TT
d. FF

A

d. FF
1. Arterial Pressure
2. Reduce Lumar Diameter

49
Q

T/F: Radius goes smaller, BP goes up

A

True
Smaller caliber blood vessels repeated constriction will release hypertension

50
Q

What are the main determinant of BP

A

Arterioles

51
Q

When an arteriole is flexoble or compliant, it can accomodate huge volume of blood without ___?

A

Increasing the BP

52
Q

T/F: As we grow old, component of blood vessels also changes and impact negatively on compliance of arteries → arteries become more rigid

53
Q

Refers to geometric alterations in the vessel wall without changing vessel volume and results in ↓ lumen size, ↑ peripheral resistance

A

Remodelling

54
Q

Type of remodelling that has increased cell number, increased cell size, and increased deposition of intercellular matrix

True
A high degree of elasticity can accommodate an increase of volume with relatively little change of pressure

58
