Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,2,3,4
Rationale 1: Beta blockers may reduce renin serum levels and suppress the stimulation of aldosterone secretion.
Rationale 2: NSAIDs may reduce renin serum levels and suppress the stimulation of aldosterone secretion.
Rationale 3: Calcium channel blockers may reduce renin serum levels and suppress the stimulation of aldosterone secretion.
Rationale 4: Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors block the formation of angiotensin II, which is the normal signal for aldosterone secretion.
Rationale 5: Nitrites do not impact serum renin levels or suppress the stimulation of aldosterone secretion.
Global Rationale: Beta blockers, NSAIDs, and calcium channel blockers may reduce renin serum levels and suppress the stimulation of aldosterone secretion. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors block the formation of angiotensin II, which is the normal signal for aldosterone secretion. Nitrites do not impact serum renin levels or suppress the stimulation of aldosterone secretion.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,2
Rationale 1: Corticosteroid therapy is used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis to reduce pain and inflammation.
Rationale 2: Corticosteroid therapy is used in the treatment of osteoarthritis to reduce pain and inflammation.
Rationale 3: Corticosteroid therapy is not used in the treatment of osteoporosis.
Rationale 4: Corticosteroid therapy is not used in the treatment of fibromyalgia.
Rationale 5: Corticosteroid therapy is not used in the treatment of myasthenia gravis.
Global Rationale: Corticosteroid therapy is used in the treatment of both types of arthritis to reduce pain and inflammation. It is not commonly used in treatment of osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, or myasthenia gravis.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
