Pathophysiology and clinical medicine

1. 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)

2. The term "thromboembolic disease" comprises:

pulmonary embolism and brain embolism (both of thrombotic origin)
phlebothrombosis and pulmonary embolism
thrombophlebitis and pulmonary embolism
pulmonary embolism from phlebothrombosis (class A) and pulmonary embolism from thrombophlebitis (class B)

3. Image of object focusing in front of retina is typical of:

Myopia (short sightedness, near-sightedness)
Hyperopia (hypermetropia - long-sightedness, far-sightedness)
Presbyopia
Hyperopia, but only when a patient sees the object through the concave lens

4. Pachymetry is used in diagnostics of ...

Glaucoma
Pleuritis and mesothelioma (resulting in pachypleuritis)
Pachymeningitis
Paget disease

5. If 20% of cardiac output 5 l/min flows through kidneys, and 20 % of the plasma volume flowing through kidneys is filtered to glomerules, then calculate glomerular filtration rate (take hematokrit value 40 %). Calculated GFR value is:

2 ml/min
20 ml/min
100 ml/min
120 ml/min

6. Lipases by their nature belong to

hydrolases
transferases
lyases
ligases

7. 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

8. With sodium plasma concentration 140 mmol/l calculate how much sodium is filtered into primary urine in 24 hr; take sodium atomic mass rounded to 23 g/mol

32 g
64 g
100 g
0,5 kg

9. 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

10. Mechanism of action of diuretic furosemid consists in inhibiton of:

Sodium/Glucose membrane co-transport in proximal tubule
Sodium/potassium/chloride membrane co-transport
Urea reabsorption
Tubular secretion of urea
