After the cuff is tied, the cells and tissue distal to the cuff will continue consuming ATP (ATP->ADP), but no fresh blood will be delivered to “clear” what will be an accumulating amount of ADP and other metabolites. ADP (=Adenosine) is itself a proxy of consumption and drives vasodilation of arteries! (Evolution is smart!) Increasing ADP/Adenosine in a “local environment” is a signal to the body that a lot of consumption is occurring there; thus, arteries and arterioles naturally dilate to increase blood flow rates and “sweep away” metabolic byproducts.
Which of the following reasons is why this question is bull?
1) Using the word "cyclic" instead of tricyclic for clarity
2) Knowing all of epidemiology of all drugs
3) having to reason out that anticholinergic effects are probably the worst over alpha1 or H1 effects to no certainty.
4) The crippling depression of studying for days-to-weeks on end to probably do average on the test.
how to rule out the others:
we would see eosinophilia, but obvi this wouldnt tell us which helminth is involved
Trichinella larvae bury themselves inside muscle tissue rather than remain in the intestine as in other roundworm infections, so stool sample tests don't often show evidence of the parasite
gram stain of stool is a pretty nonspecific test used for campylobacter enteritis; this dude doesnt have diarrhea...and lastly, xray of muscle aint gonna tell u a thang lolz

so I thought in kids/elderly you give the diptheria-toxoid conjugate vaccine and adults you give the polysacc conjugate. why does this kid get the polysacc conjugate?
Immunosuppression causes reactivation of VZV.
Im not really sure but I think the point is that with the captopril radionuclide scan there is a delay in function of the kidney. What they wanted us to remember here is that when you give a " A pril" to a patient with Renal artery atherosclerosis the renal function worsens because there is constriction of the efferent arteriole

There is nothing indicating that this is a femoral hernia. It could be any type of hernia in the inguinal region (femoral, direct of indirect inguinal). No need to overthink: symptoms of incarceration, piece of dead bowel - strangulation, done, keep going.
