Rationale: A positive correlation between two variables indicates that they move in the same direction. This means that as one variable increases (or decreases), the other variable also increases (or decreases). Choice A is incorrect because correlation does not imply causation; it only shows a relationship between variables. Choice C is incorrect as it describes a negative correlation where variables move in opposite directions. Choice D is incorrect as a positive correlation implies a relationship between the variables.

Rationale: Regular use of emollients and moisturizers is a key aspect of managing eczema in children. Emollients help maintain skin hydration and reduce irritation, which are crucial in managing eczema symptoms. Daily baths with soap can actually worsen eczema by drying out the skin further. A high-protein diet and frequent exposure to sunlight are not directly related to managing eczema and may not have a significant impact on the condition.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: In acute laryngotracheobronchitis, rapid respirations increase the risk of aspiration due to compromised airway protection and potential for secretions to enter the lungs. Keeping the child NPO helps prevent the risk of aspiration pneumonia. Choice A is incorrect because epinephrine is not typically used for laryngotracheobronchitis. Choice B is incorrect as hydration with IV fluids does not eliminate the risk of aspiration. Choice C is also incorrect because the child being hungry is not the primary reason for keeping them NPO in this condition.

Correct Answer: A
