Answer to Question 1

A
The diabetic person who maintains the glucose level below 100 mg/dL will avoid the adverse effects of hyperglycemia on the vessels. Preventing infections, eating at regular times, and using sterile technique are all valid teaching points for the diabetic patient, but they do not specifically address prevention of heart disease.

Answer to Question 2

C
Relapsing-remitting is the most common type of MS.
