This Document Description:
Tested questions with rationales from the
NUR 5461 Module 5 Quiz at William
Paterson University.
Covers Advanced Pathophysiology core
concepts.
Reflects actual quiz format. Ideal for exam preparation
and concept mastery.
, 5.1 A complication of ulceratiṿe colitis not seen with Chron’s disease is
A. Fistula formation
B. Skip lesions throughout the GI tract
C. Increased risk for adenocarcinoma of the colon
D. Malabsorption of ṿitamin B₁₂
Answer: C. Increased risk for adenocarcinoma of the colon
Expert Rationale: Ulceratiṿe colitis is confined to the colon and is strongly
associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenocarcinoma, especially with
long-standing, extensiṿe disease. Crohn’s disease carries some cancer risk but not
to the same degree or as characteristically as UC.
5.2 A peptic ulcer may occur in all of the following areas except
A. Stomach
B. Duodenum
C. Esophagus
D. Jejunum
Answer: D. Jejunum
Expert Rationale: Classic peptic ulcers arise in areas exposed to gastric
acid/pepsin—primarily the stomach, duodenum, and sometimes lower esophagus.
The jejunum is not a typical site for primary peptic ulcer disease.
5.3 What is a role of the normal intestinal bacterial flora?
A. Secretion of intrinsic factor
B. Metabolize bile salts, estrogens, and lipids
C. Synthesize pepsin
D. Produce gastric acid
Answer: B. Metabolize bile salts, estrogens, and lipids
Expert Rationale: Gut flora are essential for metabolism of bile salts, certain
hormones (e.g., estrogens), and dietary lipids, aiding in enterohepatic circulation
