The followings are risk factors associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) except:
- A. Elevated uric acid
- B. Elevated blood pressure
- C. Diabetes mellitus
- D. Elevated LDL-cholesterol
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: NAFLD ties to metabolic mess hypertension, diabetes, high LDL, and triglycerides fuel fat's liver pile-up, all in. Uric acid links to gout, not NAFLD's core, despite metabolic overlap. Clinicians eye this quartet, not urate, in chronic liver fat's risk map, a key split.
Which of the following test(s) is/are routinely used in the assessment of heart failure?
- A. Holter monitoring
- B. ECG and echocardiography
- C. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
- D. Echocardiography
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: ECG and echocardiography are routine in heart failure assessment ECG detects ischemia/arrhythmias, echocardiography confirms ejection fraction and structure, per ESC guidelines. Holter monitoring targets arrhythmias, not routine. Ambulatory BP aids hypertension, not HF directly. Trans-oesophageal echo is specialized. This pair ensures comprehensive chronic HF evaluation.
A 56-year-old patient comes to the walk-in clinic for scant rectal bleeding and intermittent diarrhea and constipation for the past several months. There is a history of polyps and a family history for colorectal cancer. While you are trying to teach about colonoscopy, the patient becomes angry and threatens to leave. What is the priority diagnosis?
- A. Diarrhea/Constipation related to altered bowel patterns
- B. Knowledge Deficit related to disease process and diagnostic procedure
- C. Risk for Fluid Volume Deficit related to rectal bleeding and diarrhea
- D. Anxiety related to unknown outcomes and perceived threat to body integrity
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The patient's anger and threat to leave during colonoscopy teaching signal emotional distress overriding physical symptoms. Anxiety stemming from uncertain outcomes and perceived bodily threat fits, as colorectal cancer risk tied to polyps and family history heightens fear, blocking education uptake. Diarrhea/constipation reflects symptoms but isn't immediately urgent with scant bleeding. Knowledge deficit exists but is secondary fear drives the refusal, not just ignorance. Fluid volume risk is plausible with bleeding, yet no data suggests acute loss; stability allows focus on emotions. Addressing anxiety first calms the patient, enabling teaching and care, a priority in this tense encounter where psychological barriers could delay critical colorectal screening and intervention.
