A 68-year old man reported to the clinician with a 9-day history of
moderate diarrhea, poor appetite, severe fatigue, and a fever of 103
degrees Fahrenheit. The physical exam was normal and lab tests were
normal, except for leukocytosis with eosinophilia. An X-ray of the
man's chest showed a lesion in the upper lobe of the right lung and a
small nodule in the left lung. The high level of eosinophils led the
clinician to order a stool test, which was negative. The clinician asked
the man about any recent travel, and the man reported that 3 months
previously he had gone on a vacation and stayed at a working sheep
farm with sheepdogs. Based on this information, the clinician began to
suspect he should test the man for:
Ans: echinococcus granulosus

a chemotherapeutic agent that kills the bacterium and is used in
reference to diffusion methods.
Ans: false
Inactivating drugs by enzymes, alteration of a drug target, inhibition of
drug intake, and rapid efflux are all examples of
Ans: mechanisms of drug resistance
