presence of fever and/or new respiratory signs accompanied by using the presence of a new
pulmonary infiltrate on chest X-ray.

Scientific manifestations:
-mild respiration contamination
-acute respiration misery syndrome.
-presence of excessive hypoxemia is a useful predictor of severity and outcome.

Etiology:
- improved adhesion of sickle pink cells to pulmonary microvasculature within the presence of
hypoxia.
-contamination,
-pulmonary fats embolism,
- infarction.

Acute pertussis patho - ANS-gram poor bacterium Bordetella pertussis that produces mutiple

-Coagulation gadget activated and deposition of fibrin results in scarring

atherosclerosis pathophysiology - ANS--Inflammatory response
-Injury to endothelial lining
-LDL penetrates vessel wall
-inflammation/macrophage adhesion
-cytokines released
-release enzymes & oxygen radicals that oxidize LDL
-foam cells arise that form fatty streak
