Compensatory hyperplasia Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

NUR 631 – Midterm Exam Study Guide 2023. Cellular biology and Alterations • Compensatory hyperplasia after partial resections (mod 1) (51-53) o Ex: liver, hepatocyte growth o Adaptive mechanism that enables certain organs to regenerate o Even with removal of 70% of the liver, it will regenerate within about 2 weeks o Compensatory hyperplasia occurs in epidermal, intestinal epithelia, hepatocytes, bone marrow and fibroblasts. Some type off hyperplasia is noted in bone, cartilage and sm...

MN 551 Midterm Exam 2023/2024 Saved A patient is experiencing impaired circulation secondary to increased systemic arterial pressure. Which of the following statements is the most relevant phenomenon? Question 1 options: Increased preload due to vascular resistance High afterload because of backpressure against the left ventricle Impaired contractility due to aortic resistance Systolic impairment because of arterial stenosis Question 2 (2 points) Saved A nurse practitioner employe...

AAMI Pathology Final, With Complete Solution Immediate cause of a disease Excitatory cause Atrophy - Noun A reduction in the functionality of an organ caused by disease, injury or lack of use Hypotrophy - Noun A degeneration in the functioning of an organ due to the loss of cells Hypertrophy Increase or more, get bigger Hypotrophy Decrease or less, get smaller Atrophy A lack of Mammary glands enlarge after birth to allow the mom to feed baby, and revert to normal size after feedin...

Differences b/w dysplasia, hyperplasia, physiological (6 q) a. Dysplasia = deranged growth immature cells of a specific tissue that results in atypical cells (cells vary in size, shape, and appearance) i. often a precursor of cancer (ex. cervical dysplasia – cells start to change + become precancerous or cancerous) ii. * Google: Dysplasia refers to an abnormality in the maturation of cells within a tissue; consists of an increase in immature cells with a corresponding decrease in mature...

Atrophy Correct Answer-E. Cells decrease in size P. Still functional; imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation. Essentially there is an increase in the catabolism of intracellular organelles, reducing structural components of cell Physiologic: thymus gland in early childhood Pathological: disuse (muscle atrophy d/ decrease workload, pressure, use, blood supply, nutrition, hormonal stimulation, or nervous stimulation) Hyperplasia Correct Answer-E: cells increase in number, mitosi...

T/F: Non-dividing cells, such as myocardial fibers, are capable of hypertrophy, but not hyperplasia. - correct answer True T/F: Dysplasia is a common type of normal cellular adaptation. - correct answer False T/F: Hypertrophy and hyperplasia rarely occur together. - correct answer False T/F: A man with a history of smoking has a bronchial biopsy showing that the normal columnar ciliated epithelial cells have been replaced by stratified squamous epithelial cells. The man is correct...

Patho Exam 1 (Maryville University - NURS611) QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONSNucleus Contains the nucleolus, a small, dense structure composed largely of RNA; most of the cellular DNA; and the DNA-binding proteins, the histones, that regulate its activity. Therefore, the histones binding to DNA cause DNA to fold into chromosomes. The wrapping of DNA into tight packages of chromosomes is essential for cell division in eukaryotes. Ribosomes RNA-protein complexes that are synthesized in ...

Size During childhood, the thymus decreases in size, and this is referred to as what type of atrophy? a. Physiologic b. Pathologic c. Disuse d. Neurogenic - Answer-A. Physiologic When planning care for a cardiac patient, the nurse knows that in response to an increased workload, cardiac myo...
