A client with a disorder of the plasma cells has a deficiency in which part of the immune system?
 
  1. Antigens that produce a diffuse immune response
  2. Monocytes that are found in an exudate
  3. Activated B lymphocytes that produce immunoglobulins specific to an antigen
  4. Macrophages that devour bacteria

Question 2

A client says, The doctor says I have a problem with the fluid in my lymph system backing up. Where does lymph fluid come from? How should the nurse respond?

Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Plasma cells are mature B cells that produce antibodies.
Rationale 2: Plasma cells are mature B cells that produce antibodies.
Rationale 3: Plasma cells are mature B cells that produce antibodies.
Rationale 4: Plasma cells are mature B cells that produce antibodies.
Global Rationale: The humoral immune response is triggered when an antigen encounters a B lymphocyte, more simply known as a B cell. The activated B cell divides to form millions of identical copies of itself in a process known as clonal division. Most cells in this clone are called plasma cells, whose primary function is to secrete antibodies specific to the antigen that initiated the challenge. The patient is not deficient in antigens, monocytes, or macrophages.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Lymph fluid does not come from the kidneys.
Rationale 2: Lymph fluid is not produced from the fluid the client drinks.
Rationale 3: Lymph fluid is created when fluid leaves the circulating blood system at the capillary level and enters lymphatic vessels.
Rationale 4: Lymph fluid is not created in the lungs.
Global Rationale: Lymph fluid is created when fluid leaves the capillaries due to osmotic forces and high pressure in the capillaries. This fluid enters blind-ended lymphatic vessels and slowly travels on its journey through the lymphatic system. As much as 3 liters of fluid per day travel through the highly branched lymphatic vessel network to eventually return to the cardiovascular circulation. Lymph does not come from the kidneys, the fluid the client drinks, or from the lungs.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
