Which pathologic condition would most likely cause increased thyroid radioactive iodine uptake? primary hypothyroidism secondary hypothyroidism Grave’s disease Hashimoto thyroiditis T4 rather than T3 is generally thought to be the most appropriate treatment for hypothyroidism. T4 normally is the most appropriate hormone to use because it: is the more potent hormone has a higher binding affinity for the thyroid hormone receptor has a larger extrathyroid pool with a slower turnover rate. is the only form of thyroid hormones that can be transported into cells all of the above.

Hi, can you help me with the following multiple choice questions: Thanks!! Z. is a 27-year-old man with readily apparent thyroid goiter. He comments that he gained 5 pounds in the last year, and you notice that his weight is approximately 20 pounds greater than normal. What can you conclude about this patient’s thyroid function? the goiter indicates that he is hyperthyroid the combination of excessive weight and goiter indicates that he is hypothyroid the combination of excessive weight and goiter indicates that he is hyperthyroid he is probably euthyroid, because the weight gain eliminates the possibility of hyperthyroidism it is not possible to make a conclusion from this information provided. For an answer to be correct, both the symptom and the explanation must be correct. Which answer is incorrect? the resting heart rate increases because circulating levels of catecholamines increase. Excess thyroid hormones stimulate the release of more adrenal catecholamines. myocardial…
Hi, can you please help me with the following multiple choice question - Thanks!! M. is a 59-year-old postmenopausal woman. The serum T4 is 8 microg/dl (n. 6 – 12); TSH is 4 microg/dl (n. 2 – 10). Body weight – 190 pounds, and she complains of depression. Her physician prescribes a low dosage of T4 to “pep her up”. What changes would you expect to see 4 weeks after the initiation of treatment? the size of thyroid will be reduced serum TSH will decrease serum T4 will decrease the basal metabolism rate will be elevated. Biologic actions of thyroid hormones include all of the following except: stimulate protein synthesis and proteolysis increase Na-K- ATP-ase activity increase oxidative phosphorylation stimulate growth and vascularity of the thyroid gland. stimulate glycogenesis
Hi, can you be so kind an answers the two multiple choice questions below - thanks in advance! In humans, total adrenalectomy is fatal without replacement therapy whereas hypophysectomy is not. This is because after hypophysectomy: the adrenal cortex undergoes compensatory hypertrophy the adrenal catecholamines compensate for the metabolic actions of cortisol the secretion of aldosterone is not markedly decreased. tissue requirements for corticosteroids decrease markedly. all of the above Factors that increase serum cortisol concentrations include all of the following except: stress eating a high-carbohydrate meal pregnancy exercise all of the above

Hi, can you please help me with the following multiple choice question - Thanks!! Correct cause-and-effect relationships following insulin withdrawal in a person with diabetes mellitus include: the ratio of K+ concentration inside the cell to K+ concentration outside the cell decreases in untreated diabetes for multiple reasons, including intracellular H+ buffering, which results in a shift of K+ to the extracellular compartment. ketonemia does not increase urine flow because it is entirely reabsorbed in the renal tubule urinary phosphate decreases because renal excretion of H+ results in increased phosphate reabsorption. serum sodium rises because of fluid shift from the extracellular compartment to intracellular compartment. glomerular filtration rate increases as a result of increased serum glucose concentration. The most effective direct stimulus for the release of glucagon is: an increase in serum glucose an decrease in serum glucose somatostatin insulin (direct action on the…

The patient is ordered 150 mcg of Levothyroxine (Synthroid) PO daily to treat hypothroidism. The pharmacy supplies Levothyroxine in 0.075 mg tablets. How many tablets will the nurse administer to the patient.
I am struggling with deciding what adrenal eitologies line up best with these case studies. A 22 year-old woman (no family history available, not currently taking medication, negative medicalhistory) presents with.... C. mild hypotension and hyperkalemia. Blood pH is 7.38 and BUN is 34mg/dL and GFR is 82ml/min. D. hypotension with muscle weakness, fatigue, weight loss, heart palpitation, weight loss,and secondary amenorrhea. Her laboratory results reveal hyperkalemia. Fasting bloodglucose is 55mg/dL, serum albumin is 8.0 mg/dL and blood pH is 7.35. E. hypertension with headache, diarrhea and abdominal pain. The patient also suffersfrom panic attacks and hot flashes. Fasting plasma glucose is 285 mg/dL and TSH is 6.5μU/mL.
Give all subparts answer otherwise leave it 1. Considering the case study given below, what is the diagnosis? A) hyperpituitarism B) Hyperthyroidism C) hypopituitarism D) hypothyroidism 2.) What is the specific cause of the diagnosis? A) autoimmune antibody stimulatio of the thyroid gland B) a TSH-producing tumor of the pituitary gland C) insufficient TRH production by the hypothalamus D) a T3-producing tumor of the pituitary gland 3) Why are TSH levels markedly decreased? A) the free T4 levels are too low to promote TSH production by the pituitary gand B) the elevated levels of anti-TSH receptor antibodies inhibit release of TSH from the thyroid gland C) markedly elevated levels of anti-thyroglobulin and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies inhibit TSH production by the thyroid gland D) increased levels of T3 provide for feedback inhibition of TSH production by the pituitary gland 4) Why would this patient exhibit the symptoms of weight loss and heat intolerance?
