The risk of hypoglycemic reaction is greatest around the peak of insulin activity.

<h3>NPH insulin reaches its peak when?</h3>

NPH Insulin peak can result in nocturnal hypoglycemia since it happens around midnight, when the body doesn't need as much insulin. The NPH insulin can make you gain weight. Hypokalemia, peripheral edema, and lipodystrophy, which can cause skin shrinkage or hypertrophy, are additional side effects.

<h3>What function does combination insulin serve?</h3>

Combination therapy involving one to two daily insulin injections along with oral therapy is typically more effective than insulin monotherapy for achieving and maintaining glycemic control, according to analysis of comparative studies (13 in insulin-naive patients and 26 in patients who had previously received insulin treatment).

Intrapulmonary pressure in the ________.
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B- pressure within the alveoli.

Explanation:

Intrapulmonary pressure is the pressure within the lungs especially in the alveoli of the lungs so is also known as "intra-alveolar pressure".

This pressure helps in the breathing process as :

1. During inspiration - The thoracic cavity volume increases due to which the intra-pulmonary pressure becomes less than the atmospheric pressure which causes the lungs to inhale about 500 ml of air.

2. During expiration- the thoracic volume decreases which cause the intra-pulmonary pressure larger than atmospheric pressure which causes the lungs to exhale the air.

Thus, option B- pressure within the alveoli is the correct answer.
