Questions for the Respiratory System Questions
Question 1 of 5
Match the following: 678. Prednisone
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Prednisone, a corticosteroid, causes psychosis, peptic ulcer, osteoporosis glucocorticoid effects on CNS, gastric mucosa, and bone (e.g., 20% bone loss risk). Myelosuppression (A) fits cytotoxics. Protein defects (B) tie to asparaginase. Neuropathy (C) is vincristine. Cystitis (D) is cytoxan. Prednisone's side effects are key in nursing for steroid tapering and GI protection.
Question 2 of 5
In man the Ebstein-Barr virus is associated with which of the following disease:

Icterus (A) is a sign, not diagnosis. Joint pain (C) is articular. Coronary infarction (D) or perforated viscus differ chest, peritonitis. Crisis's vaso-occlusion confuses, key in nursing for imaging and pain differentiation.
