Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Aretaeus the Cappadocian described pulmonary tuberculosis in detail. Hippocrates of Cos was the first to record the relationship of the external environment to the health of individuals. Claudius Galen described the four humors, introduced many drugs derived from plants, and was the first to describe smallpox. Susruta was a Brahmin physician who associated malaria with the mosquito.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, C, E
Feedback:
Advancing the scientific understanding of secondary HIV prevention (what is called positive prevention) in African-American women by exploring ways to address behavioral risk reduction prevents further transmission of HIV and the serious negative psychological consequences of living with HIV disease. African-American women experience disproportionate levels of (1) interpersonal mistrust and fear of disclosure related to perceived stigma, (2) poor adherence to treatment and other health promotion and disease prevention efforts, (3) delay in seeking care related to mental health comorbidities and addiction recovery issues, and (4) compromised self-advocacy in sexual relationships. Alcoholism and smoking are not behavioral risks associated with African-American women living with HIV.
