Which of the following is not a clinical
consequence of portal hyper-
tension?
(A) Ascitis
(B) Hepatomegaly
(C) Formation of portosystemic
shunt
(D) Hepatic encephalopathy


The correct answer is (B) Hepatomegaly. Hepatomegaly, or an enlarged liver, is not a direct consequence of portal hypertension. The other options—Ascites, Formation of portosystemic shunt, and Hepatic encephalopathy—are clinical consequences associated with portal hypertension.



All of the following are the
hyperthermia EXCEPT:
(A) Hypothyroidism
(B) Cerebral haemorrhage
(C) Succinylcholine.....
(D) Pheochromocytoma


I apologize for any confusion earlier, but the correct answer to your question is (B) Cerebral hemorrhage. Cerebral hemorrhage is not typically associated with hyperthermia. The other options—Hypothyroidism, Succinylcholine, and Pheochromocytoma—can potentially be associated with hyperthermia.

(A) 5 mL/min per 1.73 m²
(B) 10 mL/min per 1.73 m²
(C) 15 mL/min per 1.73 m²
(D) 20 mL/min per 1.73 m²


The correct answer is (C) 15 mL/min per 1.73 m². End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is diagnosed when the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) falls below 15 mL/min per 1.73 m².


The class of lupus nephritis with worst
prognosis is 
(A) Class 2
(B) Class 3
(C) Class 4
(D) Class 5

SERM

Estrogen-dependent cancers, such as breast and ovarian cancers, are influenced by the presence of estrogen in the body. Treatment for these types of cancers often involves medications that target estrogen receptors or reduce estrogen levels. Here are some classes of drugs commonly used in estrogen-dependent cancer treatment: 1. **Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs):**    - Tamoxifen: Used primarily in breast cancer treatment. It acts as an estrogen receptor antagonist in breast tissue, blocking the effects of estrogen.    - Raloxifene: Initially developed for osteoporosis, it also has anti-estrogenic effects and is used for breast cancer risk reduction. 2. **Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs):**    - Anastrozole, Letrozole, Exemestane: These drugs block the conversion of androgens into estrogens in postmenopausal women, reducing estrogen levels. They are mainly used in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. 3. **Gonadotropin-R...
