COMPREHENSIVE STUDY GUIDE WITH
NGN COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS VERIFIED FULL SOLUTION
⩥ What are some Folic acid sources?
Answer: Green leafy veggies, Dried peas and beans, Liver, Seeds,
Orange juice
⩥ What is a common cause of folic acid deficiency anemia?
Answer: Crohns Disease
⩥ Marasmus
Answer: generally a calorie malnutrition in which body fat and protein
are wasted. serum proteins are often preserved
⩥ kwashiorkor
Answer: lack of protein quantity or quality in the presence of adequate
calories
⩥ marasmic-kwashiorkor
,Answer: combined protein and energy malnutrition. This problem often
presents clinically when metabolic stress is imposed on a chronically
starved patient.
⩥ malnutrition
Answer: Multi-nutrient problem. protein catabolism exceeds protein
intake and synthesis, resulting in negative nitrogen balance, weight loss,
decreased muscle mass, and weakness
⩥ respiratory muscle atrophy, decreased cardiac output, malabsorption,
hypoproteinemia, decreased activity tolerance, intolerance to cold,
edema, dry flaking skin, dermatitis, poor wound healing, infection,
particularly postoperative infection and sepsis
Answer: complications of severe malnutrition
⩥ poverty, substance abuse, decline in functional ability to eat
independently, dental problems, dysphagia, infectious diseases such as
tuberculosis and HIV, diarrhea, vomiting, chemotherapy, catabolic
processes such as prolonged immobility increase nutrient requirements
and metabolic losses
Answer: causes of malnutrition
⩥ Acute PEM
,Answer: type of PEM that develops in patients who were adequately
nourished before hospitalization but experience starvation while in a
catabolic state from infection, stress, or injury
⩥ Chronic PEM
Answer: type of PEM that occurs in those who have cancer, end-stage
kidney or liver disease, or chronic neurologic disease.
⩥ a weight loss of 5% or more in 30days, a weight loss of 10% in 6
months, or a weight that is below ideal
Answer: clinical description of malnutrition
⩥ Zinc deficiency
Answer: Alopecia, diarrhea and glossitis are manifestations of which
nutrient deficiency?
⩥ protein deficiency
Answer: loss of hair, hepatomegaly, edema of the extremities, are
manifestations of which nutrient deficiency?
⩥ vitamin C deficiency
Answer: "corkscrew hair", swollen bleeding gums,
petechiae/ecchymoses are manifestations of which nutrient deficiency?
, ⩥ vitamin A deficiency
Answer: xerosis of conjunctiva, keratomalacia, bitot's spots, magenta
tongue, dry and scaling skin, follicular hyperkeratosis are manifestations
of which nutrient deficiency?
⩥ Niacin deficiency
Answer: diarrhea, glossitis, fissured tongue, nasolabial seborrhea,
bilateral dermatitis, disorientation are manifestations of which nutrient
deficiency?
⩥ pyridoxine deficiency
Answer: stomatitis, cheilosis, glossitis, neuropathy, paresthesia are
manifestations of which nutrient deficiency?
⩥ thiamine deficiency
Answer: confabulation, neuropathy, paresthesia, congestive heart failure,
cardiomegaly, tachycardia are manifestations of which nutrient
deficiency?
⩥ Vitamin D deficiency
Answer: osteomalacia, bone pain, rickets are manifestations of which
nutrient deficiency?
⩥ 13.0-17.0 g/dL
