SBP is a serious complication in patients with cirrhosis with high mortality rates (20–40%).
Patients at risk of developing SBP can be categorized in three groups firstly patients with active variceal bleeding patients with ascitic fluid protein <10 g/dl secondly those with a prior episode of SBP.
The most common bacteria causing SBP are gram-negative Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae and gram-positive Streptococcus pneumoniae usually only a single organism is involved. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), an infection of ascitic fluid without a definitive intra-abdominal source that can be surgically treated is a common complication in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP),is treated with a 10 to 14 day course of antibiotics .

Answer:
Increasing the alveolar ventilation rate will increase the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli.
Explanation:
Alveolar Ventilation rate is the rate of air flow in the alveoli of the lung during normal breathing. It is measured in milliliters of air per minute (mL/min). The alveolar ventilation rate is an important factor in determining the concentrations (partial pressures) of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the functioning alveoli.
A high rate of alveolar ventilation, would result in a rapid influx of oxygen-rich air and efflux carbon dioxide-filled air from the alveoli. This ultimately results in an increase in the concentration of oxygen and a decrease in the concentration of carbon dioxide within the alveoli.
Effects of alveolar ventilation on partial pressures of alveolar carbon dioxide and oxygen (PACO₂ and PAO₂)
If the alveolar ventilation rate is increased (and carbon dioxide production is unchanged), then the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the alveoli, PACO₂ will decrease.
If the alveolar ventilation rate increases, then the partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli, PAO₂ will increase.
The correct answer is option A
Phloem is a vascular tissue which helps in the transportation of sugars from the source tissue( where it is formed). The carbohydrates or sugars are transported from the chloroplast of the plant to the other parts of the plant. Other molecules along with carbohydrates are also transported with the help of phloem.
Answer:
Explanation
Water in a lake freezes from the bottom up, killing most aquatic organisms. When water in a lake freezes, it floats, providing insulation for organisms below. ... If water were most dense as a solid, lakes would freeze from the bottom up, eventually freezing solid.
The type of microscope that <span>can produce three-dimensional images of a cell’s surface is the electron-scanning microscope. In this type, beam of high-energy electrons is focused to project the correct projection of the cells. The projection of the cells are made up of signals of the surface.</span>
