Get answer to your question and much more c.Excessive clot formation and lipid accumulation in the endothelium of the arteryare present.d.Evidence of age-related changes that weaken the endothelium of the artery arepresent.ANS: AInvasion of the tunica intima by an infectious agent also roughens the normally smooth liningof the artery, causing platelets to adhere readily. This selection is the only option thataccurately describes the mechanism that supports abnormal clot formation.PTS: 1REF: Pages 1142-11439.What is the usual source of pulmonary emboli?a.Deep venous thrombosisc.Valvular diseaseb.Endocarditisd.Left heart failureANS: APulmonary emboli originate in the venous circulation (mostly from the deep veins of the legs)or in the right heart. This selection is the only option that accurately identifies the usual sourceof pulmonary emboli.

Factors that can cause your heart to work harder include: High blood pressure (hypertension). This is the most common cause of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Which change in cardiac function will occur in the presence of hypertension?Hypertension increases the workload on the heart inducing structural and functional changes in the myocardium. These changes include hypertrophy of the left ventricle, which can progress to heart failure.
Which pathologic change occurs to the kidneys glomeruli as a result of hypertension?Abstract. In glomerulonephritic and normal kidneys hypertension has been shown to increase the urinary protein excretion and the thickness of the glomerular basement membrane and to reduce the glomerular filtration rate.
What is hypertension cardiomyopathy?Hypertensive cardiomyopathy (HTN-CM) is a structural cardiac disorder generally accompanied by concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) associated with diastolic or systolic dysfunction in patients with persistent systemic hypertension.
