MI Correct Answer: Death of myocardium from sudden blockage of coronary artery blood flow What causes cell death in MI? Correct Answer: unstable plaque breaks off, triggering platelet aggregation, coagulation cascade and thrombus formation. continued no blood flow in 10 seconds ischemia, 20 minutes cell die What consequence of cell death leads to CP? Correct Answer: hypoxia as cannot meet cell demand for oxygen How is MI diagnosed Correct Answer: EKG (STEMI) or elevated Troponin (non-STEMI) What...

Nephrotic syndrome Correct Answer: characterized by massive proteinuria caused by glomerular damage. corticosteroids are the mainstay; Associated with glomerulonephritis and with an immune response that is noninflammatory. Glomerular Injury: Diffuse and Focal Correct Answer: Lesions that involve all or most (> 50%) of the glomeruli (plural) are termed diffuse, and lesions that involve some (< 50%) of the glomeruli are termed focal (e.g., focal segmental glomerulonephritis). Glomerular inju...
