Answer:
neuroleptic malignant syndrome
Explanation:
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is an idiosyncratic, life-threatening reaction to antipsychotic medications, with haloperidol being the most common cause. It is characterized by elevated temperatures, "lead pipe" muscle rigidity, altered mental status, choreoathetosis, tremors, and autonomic dysfunction (e.g., diaphoresis, labile blood pressure, incontinence, dysrhythmias). While this patient's temperature is only 102.7, students should note that any patients with temperatures greater than 105 most likely have non-infectious etiologies for temperature elevation. NMS is thought to be due to too much D2 blockade in the substantia nigra and hypothalamus. Treatment consists of stopping the causative agent and providing supportive care. Medications such as dantrolene, bromocriptine, amantadine, and lorazepam are also often used.
Answer:
Protease inhibitors work by blocking the activity of HIV protease, which is an enzyme that HIV needs to multiply.
Explanation:
Protease inhibitors are synthetic drugs that inhibit the action of HIV-1 protease, an enzyme that cleaves two precursor proteins into smaller fragments. These fragments are needed for viral growth, infectivity and replication.
Long term effects are that it can result in more swelling and Edema and weakness in the effected extremity
The last sentence is the true one (chromosomes occur in pairs in higher plants and animals)
Answer:
Option-D
Explanation:
The myocardial cells form the cardiac muscle present in the heart. The heart receives its signal from the autonomic nervous system but not all the cells receive the signals.
The SV and AV node present in the upper heart produces the potential for the contraction. The action potential gets transferred through the cell and finally reach the lower ventricle through Purkinje fibres.
This allows the contraction of both the ventricles simultaneously and sows that the heart cells contract simultaneously.
Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
