pressure generated at the end of diastole 

cardiac preload aka left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP)***

100

local: heat & redness: from vasodilation and increased blood flow***** swelling from exudate fluid from capillary permeability. pain from pressure by exudate.

systemic: fever, leukocytosis, left shift, increased plasma protein synthesis, acute phase reactants.

s/s of inflammation

100

leukemia*** and brain tumors account for 61%

most common childhood cancers from birth to 14 years old

100

deficiency of this chemical may result in hypothyroidism

iodine (endemic goiter)

100

central obesity, dyslipidemia (hyperlipidemia), hypertension, and elevated fasting blood glucose (hyperglycemia) are the 4 disorders that make up this condition and increase risk for heart disease, diabetes and stroke.

metabolic syndrome (syndrome x)

200

fusiform/circumferential, saccular, dissecting**, false

different types of aneurysms 


200

antibodies or T cells are produced after either a natural exposure **** to an antigen or after immunization and is long lived

active acquired immunity


200

protruding tongue, growth retardation, jaundice, dry skin, slow reflexes, hoarse voice 

clinical manifestations of congenital hypothyroidism

200

high urinary osmolarity***, high urinary sodium concentration, hyponatremia 

clinical manifestations of SIADH



200

with hypertension, angina/mi, transient ischemic attach (TIA), stroke**, peripheral arterial disease are examples of..

target organ damage (caused by hypertension)

300

in htn: this phenomenon causes *****decreased sodium and water excretion at normal pressures --> contributing to sustained hypertension*****

natriuresis shifts 

300

most common allergies are this kind of reaction****

the most potent mediator is histamine*** which affects several key target cells

Type 1: IgE mediated 

300

blood shunts from right to left*****, consists of four defects 

TOF (tetralogy of fallot)


blood shunts from right to left through the VSD****

300

virchow triad***, inherited disorders, estrogen use, obesity, orthopedic surgery, immobility, trauma, pregnancy, malignancy, vena cava syndrome**, IBD, polythycemia vera, and venous catheters are all examples of 

risk factors for dvt

300

the body releasing angiotensin II during an MI 

counterproductive; it causes the heart to work harder

400
the amount of venous return to the ventricle and blood left in the ventricle after systole (contraction) are used to measure

LVEDP aka Preload*****

400

diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic neuropathy are this type of complications of DM

microvascular

400

oxygenated blood shunts left to right of the heart via defect 

VSD


400

normal: 4%-5.6%

increased risk: 5.7%-6.4%

diagnosis:6.5% or higher


HgbA1C (glycoslated hemoglobin) in correlation to diabetes

400

catecholamines, RAAS, arginine vasopressin, natriuretic peptides

complex constellation of systolic heart failure (HFrEF)

500

this hormone mediates remodeling of the ventricular wall, contributing to sarcomere death, loss of normal collagen matrix and interstitial fibrosis

Angiotensin II 

500

endocardial damage, blood-borne microorganisms adherence, bacterial infiltrate

risk factors for endocarditis

500

this condition is incompatible with extra uterine life unless a communication exists between the two circuits to provide the necessary oxygen to the body******

communication is accomplished by mixing pulmonary and systemic circulations through a PDA,ASD or VSD

transposition of the great arteries 

500

parathyroid glans are related to alterations in calcium balance. inadequate intake malabsorption and/or renal changes take place.*** 

Growth hormone and insulin like growth hormone: both decline with ____, called the somotopause-linked to decreases in muscle size and function, fat and bone mass, changes in the reproductive and cognitive functions.********

effects of aging and the endocrine system

500

starry classification 1: by 8 months** of age, 45% of infants had macrophages in the intimate cells that was becoming lip laden foam cells.

starry classification 2: by puberty

starry classification 3&4:fatty streaks are visible

starry classification 5: by third decade of life, smooth muscle cells
