Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Characteristics of Metabolic Syndrome
 Hypertension
 Dyslipidemia
 Central obesity
 Glucose intolerance with hyperinsulinemia (insulin resistance)

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a congenital heart defect in which oxygenated blood is shunted from a higher-pressured left ventricle to a lower-pressured right ventricle through an abnormal opening in the ventricular septum. This left-to-right shunt causes an increased blood flow across the pulmonic valve. The signs and symptoms depend on the size of the defect and the age of the patient. A VSD murmur occurs after the mitral valve closes (S1). Characteristic of a VSD is a loud, harsh, pansystolic murmur at the lower left sternal border, usually accompanied by a thrill.
