Answer to Question 1

D
Cervical erosion is an adverse effect of the cervical cap and can affect the outcome of the woman's Pap smear. The cervical cap must be fitted to the woman by a health care professional and it may be left in place for 36 to 48 hours after intercourse. A spermicidal gel is placed in the dome of the cap and left in place until the cervical cap is removed.

Answer to Question 2

C
Diaphragms should fit snugly and, if there is a substantial weight gain, it could affect the fit and consequently the effectiveness of the diaphragm. The diaphragm should be in place for 6 hours after intercourse. When vaginal lubricants are used for intercourse, they should be water-based. Petroleum-based products increase the risk of disintegration of the latex of the diaphragm. The diaphragm should be washed with a mild soap and water and allowed to air dry.

Fatal fungal infections may be able to resist newer antifungal drugs.

Single antifungals may not be enough to stop a fungal infection from causing the death of a patient.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

The first monoclonal antibodies were made exclusively from mouse cells. Some are now fully human, which means they are likely to be safer and may be more effective than older monoclonal antibodies.
