Unit 1 Questions 1- 3 Figure 1 The sources of blood glucose in a human body during a normal day of 24 hours are shown in the above figure. Glucose is primarily derived from glycogenolysis occurring between meals. Glucose is chiefly sourced from the dietary intake for few hours following the principal meals of the day. Late at night‚ gluconeogenesis becomes the predominant source of glucose. 1 Glycogenolysis decreases after midnight because A C 2 gluconeogenesis takes place. hepatic glycogen is

Pathophysiology of COPD in acute exacerbations Exacerbations of COPD can be described as increased airway inflammation and oedema‚ leading to systemic inflammation causing even more airflow limitation and worsening of ventilation and perfusion (Aaron et al‚ 2001). It can also be characterised by increased oxygen consumption‚ altered hypoxic vasoconstriction‚ and systemic and pulmonary haemodynamic abnormalities (increased cardiac output and increased pulmonary artery pressure) (Bhowmik et al‚ 2000; Dentener

TYPES • Toxic-metabolic encephalopathy. This is an acute condition of brain dysfunction with symptoms of confusion and/or delirium. The condition is usually reversible. The causes of toxic-metabolic encephalopathy are varied. They include systemic illness‚ infection‚ organ failure‚ and other conditions. • Anoxic brain injury. This is a brain condition caused by total lack of oxygen to the brain. Lack of oxygen for a few minutes causes cell death to brain tissues. Anoxic brain injury may result
