Removal of part of the liver leads to the remaining liver cells undergoing compensatory :~~ Compensatory hyperplasia is an adaptive mechanism that enables certain organs to regenerate. For example, the removal of part of the liver leads to hyperplasia of the remaining liver cells (hepatocytes) to compensate for the loss. Which of the following statements best describes Raynaud disease? a. An inflammatory disorder of small and medium-size arteries in the feet and sometimes in the ha...

PCCN practice Questions with Correct Answers 1. A 49-year-old male was recently admitted with an inferior wall MI resulting from 100% occlusion of the right coronary artery (RCA). The 12-Lead ECG reveals ST elevation in leads II, Ill, and avF. You would expect to see reciprocal changes in which leads? A. I, aVR B. V, V2 C. V, VA D I, aVL - Answer-1. D. I, aVI. The RCA perfuses the inferior wall and the mirror image or reciprocal change will be seen in the high latera wall, which is refl...

Foundations CBR20 – Cardiology Exam Questions With Answers What underlying pathologic process distinguishes myocardial infarction from angina/unstable angina? Atherosclerotic plaque rupture → exposed endothelium → clot attaches → reduced blood flow; if cell death occurs (usually due to complete vascular obstruction) then positive trop and MI; if no cell death occurs then negative trop and angina/unstable angina What is the difference between transmural and non-transmural infarctio...
