Answer to Question 1

A, C, E
Nausea and vomiting create physiological complications which include bleeding, aspiration pneumonia, dehydration, and reopening of surgical wounds. These complications can be very costly and prolong hospital stays.

Answer to Question 2

D
HIV selectively infects and causes the destruction of CD4 cells (T-helper cells). An increase in ratio of this population of cells compared with CD8+ cells in a patient with HIV disease indicates the drug regimen is effective in suppressing viral replication.
