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).

A newborn is being monitored for retinopathy of prematurity. Which condition predisposes an infant to this condition
Harrizon [31]

Respiratory distress syndrome is a condition that predisposes an infant to this condition.

<h3>What is Respiratory distress syndrome?</h3>

A respiratory condition that affects breathing in neonates. One of the most frequent issues with premature neonates is respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), formerly known as hyaline membrane disease.

A deficiency in pulmonary surfactant is the root cause of RDS. After the 26th week of pregnancy, in the third trimester, a fetus's lungs begin to produce surfactant. A frothy material called surfactant maintains the lungs' complete expansion so that neonates can breathe in air as soon as they are born.

The majority of ARDS cases, however, are caused by a small number of prevalent conditions; among patients in medical intensive care units, these conditions are pneumonia, sepsis, and aspiration.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) symptoms are:

  • severe dyspnea or shortness of breath.
  • hurried and difficult breathing.
  • muscular soreness and extreme exhaustion.
  • Confusion.
  • quick heartbeat.
  • Due to low blood oxygen levels, fingernails and lips have a bluish appearance.
  • chest discomfort and coughing.

ira [324]

Answer: dependency is more likely in cultures where access to alcohol is carefully controlled.

Explanation:

Studies have shown that in cultures where access to alcohol is carefully controlled and viewed as a sign of adulthood, dependency is more likely than in cultures where alcohol is used in religious and ceremonial activities.

This has been put down to people tending to abuse alcohol when they get access to it as opposed to cultures where it is readily available.
