idiopathic or caused by viral infection - (answer)what is the etiology of pericarditis
drop in Arterial bp by more than 10 mmHg in inspiration - (answer)pulsus paradoxus
arterial BP during expiration exceeds arterial pressure during inspiration by more than 10 mmHg
- (answer)What is pulsus paradoxus
dyspnea, tachycardia, jugular venous distention, cardiomegaly, and pulsus paradoxus -
(answer)symptoms of cardiac tamponade
what test do you do to check the functioning of a valve - (answer)Echocardiogram
enlarged, superficial veins; a twisted, dilated vein w/ incompetent valves - (answer)varicose
veins
,(1) trauma to the saphenous veins that damages one or more valves, or (2) gradual venous
distention caused by the action of gravity on blood in the legs - (answer)Causes of varicose veins
condition in which venous circulation is inadequate due to partial vein blockage or leakage of
venous valves; primarily affects feet and ankles; discoloration of the skin. Makes it difficult for
blood to return to the heart from the legs - (answer)chronic venous insufficiency/ venous
insufficiency
Pituitary adenoma usually benign and slow growing. arise from the anterior pituitary. -
(answer)Hyperpituitarism

4. CN: papilledema, ptosis, tonic pupil, trigeminal neuralgia, facial palsy, tinnitus, hearing loss
5. cerebellar ataxia: truncal + gait ataxia > limb ataxia, dysarthria, nystagmus
5. NMJ: myasthenia gravis
6. nerves: carpal tunnel, polyneuropathy, delayed DTR - (answer)neurological manifestations of
hypothyroidism
a common form of hyperthyroidism resulting from overproduction of thyroxine; caused by a
false immune system response (goiter is often formed). Antibodies to TSH receptor that stimulate
T3 and T4 production. Diffuse nontender goiter. Proptosis and extraocular muscle dysfunction
occurs in 50% of cases. - (answer)Graves (or Graves') disease
Type II hypersensitivity where there is stimulation of the thyroid by antibodies directed against
the TSH receptor
The gland results in hyperplasia of the gland (goiter). Increased synthesis of TH -
(answer)Grave's Disease
