I'm working on a immunology exercise and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

You may use bullet points for each portion of the question. Once you have finished, paste into the box for the assignment section, and also attach this document to the assignment section.

Answer your choice of 10 of the 11 questions:

1.Explain how the following lung disorders are alike and how they differ: sarcoidosis, cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Include in your answer the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

2.“Not everyone who has lung cancer is (or was) a smoker.” Support or refute this statement with examples and at least two peer-reviewed references (texts are NOT peer-reviewed references). Include in your argument the underlying mechanisms involved.

3.Compare and contrast nutritional deficiency anemias, hemolytic anemias, anemias of chronic disease, and polycythemia rubra vera. Include in your answer the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

4.How are hypertension, arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis, ischemic stroke, myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction related? Include in your answer specific examples of related signs and symptoms; links between these signs and symptoms and the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

5.Using at least 2 peer-reviewed references, compare and contrast a congenital heart defect involving structure of the heart chambers to one involving structure of the major vessels. Include in your answer the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

6.Using at least 2 peer-reviewed references, compare and contrast vascular dementia with Alzheimer disease. Include in your answer the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

7.Super absorbency tampons are no longer sold in the United States. Why? Include in your answer specific examples of related signs and symptoms; links between these signs and symptoms and the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms; what the diagnosis is, how it is diagnosed, and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms.

8.Why are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors prescribed as treatment for a wide variety of mood disorders? Include in your answer at least three specific examples with links between the signs and symptoms and the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms associated with these disorders and why the treatment(s) would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms.

9.Differentiate between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and autism-spectrum disorder. Include in your answer the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

10.Using at least 2 peer-reviewed references, discuss neuropathic pain. Include in your answer at least two specific examples, the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.

11.Explain how the following movement disorders are alike and how they differ: ALS, MS, and Parkinson disease. Include in your answer the underlying mechanisms and how the signs and symptoms are linked physiologically to these mechanisms; how each is diagnosed and how underlying mechanisms tie into the definitive diagnostic parameters; and how each is treated and why the treatment would be expected to work based on the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism.
