Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 4

Rationale 1: Chronic hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and mitral stenosis are all associated with an increased risk for heart failure.
Rationale 2: Chronic hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and mitral stenosis are all associated with an increased risk for heart failure.
Rationale 3: Chronic hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and mitral stenosis are all associated with an increased risk for heart failure.
Rationale 4: Chronic hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and mitral stenosis are all associated with an increased risk for heart failure.
Rationale 5: Renal insufficiency is not a cause of heart failure but often the result of heart failure.

Global Rationale: Chronic hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and mitral stenosis are all associated with an increased risk for heart failure. Renal insufficiency is not a cause of heart failure but often the result of heart failure.

Answer to Question 2

3

Rationale 1:An increase in heart rate does not increase blood pressure. Stress can cause blood pressure to rise.
Rationale 2:Emotions can have a profound effect on blood pressure. Pets can either cause more stress or reduce it.
Rationale 3:Anger and stress can cause blood pressure to increase. Reducing stress can decrease blood pressure.
Rationale 4:There is no evidence to suggest that increased stress causes high cholesterol and depression.

Global Rationale: Emotions can also have a profound effect on blood pressure. Anger and stress can cause blood pressure to rise,whereas mental depression and lethargy may cause it to fall.
