Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C
Angina pectoris and acute myocardial infarction are considered CADs. Pulmonary stenosis is a congenital heart disease. Pericarditis is inflammation of the tissue surrounding the heart. Venous stasis ulcers are not related to CAD.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E
Pharmacologic approaches to managing metabolic syndrome are targeted toward controlling diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. There is no pharmacologic intervention for obstructive sleep apnea. Obesity should be addressed before pharmacologic therapy begins. Insulin resistance is not dealt with pharmacologically in the early management of metabolic syndrome.
