Sholpan [36]2 years ago

The small intestine produces cholecystokinin, which stops the stomach from secreting gastric juices. The statement that follows is true.

Discussion about Cholecystokinin-

  • A peptide transmitter called cholecystokinin(CCK) is released into the blood after a meal and is largely made by enteroendocrine cells in the proximal small intestine. Circulating CCK stimulates pancreatic secretion and gallbladder contraction, controls stomach emptying and bowel movement, and promotes satiety via binding to particular cholecystokinin-1(CCK-1) receptors mostly on pancreas, stomach smooth muscle, and peripheral nerves.
  • The coordination of nutritional intake, digestion, and absorption is achieved via these effects. The main dietary components that increase cholecystokinin(CCK )release are ingested fat and protein.
  • CCK was first discovered to be a 33-amino-acid polypeptide. Yet, bigger and smaller versions of CCK were found in the brain, gut, and blood from its very discovery. A preprohormone undergoes posttranslational synthesis to yield all variants of CCK from a particular gene.

Ms. Ward, a new patient, complains of sinus pain. Expanded problem-focused history and exam are completed, and sinus X-rays are
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: check her medical history to see if she has had these issues before during your physical exam alway check above and below the area the patient is complaining about. So for sinuses palpate the sinus drainage passage with the digits of your fingers. For below palpate the back of the neck ask if there’s any tenderness or pain also examine the throat and check the lymph nodes and tonsils. Do an oral exam look at the tonsils tongue teeth look for any inflammation or redness. Look in the nasal cavity to see if you see a deviated septum dryness bleeding any blockage after a full physical exam like that order your x-ray which would typically not be done on an acute patient with these symptoms but in a patient with chronic issues continuing I would immediately get a consult to a specialist which in her case would be an ENT( ears,nose,throat). A simple clinical treatment for sinus issues would to just put the patient on a antihistamine some examples are (Benadryl, Allegra and Clara tin) I’d recommend the patient follow up within a week to see if that helped at all and then if not follow through with the plan I set in place above. If you do place the patient on an antibiotic I would recommend (amoxicillin).

34kurt

Answer: D) precapillary sphincters relax.

Explanation:

 Blood flow to a tissue will decrease if precapillary sphincters relax as, capillaries provides glucose and oxygen to the cells and allows blood to flow through it when the muscle ring known as the precapillary Sphincters get relaxed. The blood flow is stopped when the precapillary sphincters constrict flow of blood. As, certain chemical signals causes feeder arterioles to dilate and bring more blood into local areas then, it causes precapillary sphincters to relax.
