What causes a blowing murmur vs. harsh murmur?
blowing- blood flowing wrong way across valve

Stable vs. unstable angina
stable is exercised induced, relieved with rest or nitro, neg enzymes

unstable- also ST depression, from disruption of plaque folowed by formation of a superimposing thrombosis, d/t persistent but disrupted plaque obstructs blood flow, elevated CKMB

MI is unstable angina that lasts long enough to cause cell death
Q wave vs. non-Q wave MI
non Q wave- inner 1/3-1/2 of wall infarcted vs. whole wall
Renin angiotensin aldosterone system and CHF
JG cells release renin in respnse to decreased pressure, leads to conversion of angiotensinogen to Ang I, ACE turns it into Ang II which cuases vasoconstriction and stimulates aldosertone from adrenal, inadequate renal perfusion in CHF stimulates this and makes it worse

adults- d.t diffuse injury to endothelium causing edema followed by inflammation leading to rapid collagen accumulation

neonatal- insufficienct surfactant low L:S ratio
Penumoconiosis
macrophages phagocytose non-degradable irritants in lung parnechyma -> relase of ROS and immune mediators -> fibrosis increases with each

asbestosis, antracosis (coal), berylisosis, silicosis
Hypersenstivity penumonitis
, extrinsic allergic alveolitis repeated inhalation of allergens tat causes inflamamtion and fibrosis

MOA for leuprolide and use
treatment for prostate cancer, synthetic GnRH feedback inhibits sex hormone synthesis
Paclitaxel and docetaxel
inhibit microtubule disaasemblie, white ells can still function by forming but can;t disassemble -> apoptosis
