- it involves humoral immunity

- involves increased t lymphocytes

- can not occur months to years after transplant

- it is the active form of vitamin d, converted in the liver

Answer: it involves humoral immunity cf cf cf cf




Verified Rationale: cf cf cf cf cf




Chronic transplant rejection is primarily mediated by humoral (antibody-mediated)
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




cf immune responses as well as alloantibody targeting of the graft vasculature. Over time,

cf this results in progressive vasculopathy and fibrosis of the transplanted tissue. T

lymphocytes can be involved, but the chronic phase distinctively features antibody-

mediated mechanisms. Chronic rejection develops months to years after transplantation,

2. A decrease in Na+ reabsorption is achieved through the action of which of the
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




cf following? cf cf

- nitrates

- diuretics
cf cf cf




- antihistamines

- anticoagulants

, Answer: diuretics cf




Verified Rationale: cf cf cf cf cf




Diuretics are a class of drugs specifically designed to reduce sodium reabsorption in the
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




renal tubules, resulting in increased excretion of sodium and water. This pharmacological
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




cf effect is utilized in treating hypertension, heart failure, and edema by decreasing fluid

3. Which of the following is/are true regarding acid-base disorders? (mark all that

cf apply) cf cf




Choose matching definition cf cf cf cf




- Metabolic disorders are a result of a change in plasma HCO3- levels
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




- Respiratory disorders are a result of a change in plasma CO2 levels
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




- Normal blood pH = 7.35-7.45

Answer:
- Metabolic disorders are a result of a change in plasma HCO3- levels
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




- Respiratory disorders are a result of a change in plasma CO2 levels
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




- Normal blood pH = 7.35-7.45
cf cf cf cf cf




Verified Rationale: cf cf cf cf cf




Acid-base balance is tightly maintained through respiratory control of CO₂ and renal
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




cf control of HCO₃⁻. Disorders involving bicarbonate levels (HCO₃⁻) are classified as
cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf cf




cf metabolic, while those involving CO₂ are classified as respiratory. Normal arterial blood
