Pathophysiology and clinical medicine

1. Paradoxical embolism is caused typically

by periodic reversal of blood flow in leg veins
by periodic reversal of blood flow in leg arteries
by mural thrombus lining the wall of an arterial aneurysm (paradoxical embolism to leg veins)
by patent foramen ovale

2. Microcytic anemia is usually not

hypochromic at the same time
hyperchromic at the same time
caused by thalassemia
caused by repeated blood loss

3. Hepcidin, hemojuvelin and feroportin play a role in

in development of chronic diseases anemia
in pathogenesis of hemorrhagic complications in children suffering from hemophilia
in prevention of hemorrhagic complications in hemophilia
in the treatment of hemostatic disorders in children, with the effect of hepcidin as most prominent

4. Ivermectin is:

An antiparasitic drug
Dipeptidyl dipeptidase-IV inhibitor used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus
A medicine used in the treatment of neonatal diarrhea
Well tolerated immunosupresiv used (a) in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and (b) in GVH reaction prevention after transplants

5. Hemostasis means

synonymic term for coagulation (hemocoagulation)
mechanisms preventing exsanguination when integrity of vessel is altered
mechanisms responsible for the balance of physiological and biochemical parameters in organism
slowing the blood flow speed in vessels

6. Fibrinolysis can be potentiated

by activation of fibrinogen conversion to fibrin
blocking the fibrinogen conversion to fibrin
by activation of plasminogen conversion to plasmin
blocking the plasminogen conversion to plasmin

7. Classical Virchow-Rokitanski triad does not include

alteration of blood flow (stasis or turbulence)
abnormality of blood coagulation (hypercoagulability)
medical history of thrombosis or embolism
injury of vessel wall (endothelial injury or dysfunction)

8. Commonly, sideroachrestic anemia is not

accompanied by sideroblasts
a sign of myelodysplastic syndrome
caused by repeated loss of blood (e.g. in young women)
caused by vitamin B6 deficiency

9. Phospholipases do not belong to

Hydrolases
Lipases
Phosphodiesterases
Phosphorylases

10. Elevation of creatin kinase (CK) typically does not accompany

Severe chest pain
Anuria
Chronic alcohol abuse
Epileptic seizures of grand-mal type
