Answer:

COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) makes it hard to breathe due to obstructed airflow from the lungs. This OBSTRUCTION in turn causes respiratory acidosis.

Explanation:

RESPIRATORY ACIDOSIS develops when air inhaled into and exhaled from the lungs does not get adequately exchanged between the carbon dioxide from the body for oxygen from the air.

Respiratory acidosis occurs when breathing out does not get rid of enough CO2. The increased CO2 that remains results in an acidic state. This can occur as a result of respiratory problems, such as COPD.

The increased CO2 level in the bloodstream occurring as a result of respiratory acidosis is known as hypercapnia.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Biased.

Explanation:

Anecdotal evidence is described as the evidence that is based entirely upon an individual's personal experiences or observations.

As per the question, a claim based on such evidence is most likely to be <u>biased</u> as anecdotal evidence is based on a limited selection of examples that either support or refute the claim but not supported by any scientific or statistical analysis. Due to this undue bias, <u><em>anecdotal evidence is not considered reliable as it displays the personal opinion, feeling, or experience of an individual</em></u>. Thus, <em>it may be used to negate the general statements but not to support r substantiate a claim or argument</em>.

If your test is positive, you might have syphilis.The following step is to confirm the diagnosis using a more accurate syphilis test, like FTA-ABS. The FTA-ABS test will aid in differentiating syphilis from other infections or diseases.

<h3>What is RPR test?</h3>
  • Rapid Plasma Reagin, or RPR, is a syphilis screening test.
  • It evaluates the presence of molecules (proteins) known as antibodies in the blood of individuals who may have the disease.
  • It is frequently used to test pregnant women for the condition and is used to check people who exhibit signs of STDs.
  • The effectiveness of syphilis therapy is also evaluated using the test.
  • Antibody levels for syphilis should decrease following antibiotic therapy.
  • Another RPR test can be used to keep track of these values.
  • Levels that stay the same or increase may indicate an ongoing infection.
<h3>Infectious mononucleosis:</h3>
  • The Epstein-Barr virus is the common infectious agent that causes infectious mononucleosis (EBV).
  • The term "glandular fever" is used more frequently.
  • Young adults between the ages of 15 and 25 are most commonly affected with infectious mononucleosis.
  • It affects all races and is equally prevalent in both sexes.
  • By the time they are adults, up to approximately 95 percent of persons have EBV infection.
  • There is no seasonal preference in the disease's occurrence worldwide.
