Question 1 of 5
Which of the following factors is associated with an increased risk in pyloric stenosis?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Perfectionism and high levels of anxiety are associated with an increased risk in pyloric stenosis. Pyloric stenosis is a condition where the opening between the stomach and small intestine becomes narrow, leading to symptoms like projectile vomiting in infants. Perfectionism and high anxiety levels can contribute to increased stress and tension in the body, potentially affecting the function of the pyloric muscle and leading to the development of pyloric stenosis. Participation in team sports (choice
A), high self-esteem (choice
B), and positive social support (choice
D) are not directly linked to the physiological causes of pyloric stenosis, making them incorrect choices.
