Acid-base imbalance from vomiting -ANS-Metabolic alkalosis. Caseous necrosis -ANS-Type of necrosis typical in tuberculosis, where granulomas contain cheesy, necrotic debris due to chronic inflammation. Cause of anaphylactic shock -ANS-Massive histamine release causes vasodilation, hypotension, and airway edema. Cause of elevated ALP -ANS-ALP rises when bile flow is obstructed in the liver or biliary tree. Cause of esophageal varices -ANS-Increased portal pressure causes collateral vessel dilation, risking hemorrhage. Cause of oncotic edema -ANS-Reduced albumin decreases oncotic pressure, leading to fluid movement into interstitial spaces. Acromegaly -ANS-Excessive growth hormone secretion in adults, presenting with enlarged hands, feet, and facial features. Acute glomerulonephritis -ANS-The kidneys show punctate hemorrhages due to capillary inflammation and injury. Angiotensin II -ANS-Has the effect of vasoconstriction and aldosterone release, raising BP and promoting sodium and water retention. Addison's disease -ANS-Condition associated with decreased cortisol and aldosterone due to primary adrenal insufficiency reducing glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid production. Air trapping and hyperinflation -ANS-COPD causes loss of elastic recoil and obstruction, leading to air retention and barrel chest. Aldosterone -ANS-Aldosterone promotes Na⁺ reabsorption and K⁺ loss in the distal nephron to increase blood volume. Aldosterone in Addison's -ANS-Low aldosterone in Addison's leads to sodium loss and potassium retention. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) -ANS-ADH deficiency causes large volumes of dilute urine and risk of dehydration. Anxiety disorders -ANS-Condition associated with decreased GABA activity in the brain, where decreased function promotes neuronal excitability and anxiety. Aplastic anemia -ANS-Bone marrow failure leads to reduced production of all cell lines. Apoptosis -ANS-Apoptosis is an orderly process for removing damaged or unneeded cells without inflammation. Atherosclerotic plaque rupture -ANS-Plaque rupture leads to thrombus formation, blocking coronary arteries and causing infarction. B Lymphocytes -ANS-B cells differentiate into plasma cells which produce antibodies, central to humoral immunity. Baroreceptor reflex -ANS-Baroreceptors detect pressure changes and adjust heart rate and vessel tone. Barrett's esophagus -ANS-Potential complication of long-standing GERD, where chronic acid exposure causes metaplasia of the esophageal epithelium. Beta-blockers -ANS-Mechanism involves inhibition of sympathetic stimulation to reduce heart rate and BP by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors. Brain -ANS-The organ most sensitive to hypoxia, requiring constant oxygen supply and quickly damaged by hypoxia. Breast cancer -ANS-BRCA mutations impair DNA repair, increasing cancer risk. Bronchoconstriction and mucus production -ANS-Asthma involves hyperresponsiveness, smooth muscle constriction, and increased mucus, narrowing the airway. Calcium oxalate stones formation -ANS-Calcium oxalate stones form due to high calcium and oxalate levels in the urine.
