Explain the association between atherosclerosis and ischemic heart disease. Imagine that you were the Surgeon General of the United States. What types of programs would you advocate to decrease heart disease? Do you think that as a society we should invest resources into the development of stemcell therapies for more effective treatment of myocardial infarction?
A 32 years old Brazilian immigrant male with a long history of cardiac arrhythmia died suddenly. Autopsy revealed an apical left ventricular aneurysm and severe cardiac inflammatory reaction around ‘nests’ of very small organisms.
a. What is the diagnosis?
b. How is this disease usually acquired?
c. What other organ systems may be involved?
d. Are other mammals susceptible? How is this important to the human situation?
Scenario C
The United States federal government is faced with budget
problems resulting in large deficits and the need to reduce
spending. Congress suggests reducing spending by making
cuts in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The congres-
sional representative for your district asks for your opinion
and your rationale in response to each of the following
questions.
1. Should Medicare pay the cost of coronary bypass
surgery for an active 85-year-old person?
2. Should Medicaid pay for care in an extended care
facility for an 88-year-old person who has had a stroke
and is long-term comatose?
3. Should Medicare or Medicaid pay for lifestyle
prescription drugs (e.g., Viagra) for men who are
eligible for these programs?

He is mildly overweight (BMI=27), has hypertension, a family history of heart disease, no structured exercise and he is presently trying to quit smoking. One month ago, he complained of chest pain at work, and was rushed to hospital. A coronary angiogram confirmed that he had two (2) blocked arteries. Physicians tried to do angioplasty to open his clogged arteries but the procedure did not work. Subsequently, as a preventive measure, Bob had open heart surgery. His recovery in the hospital was excellent. His follow-up Bruce protocol test results (performed at rehab facility) are below. Previous exercise history/diet history: never exercised before. Only reason he is exercising is because his wife and doctor have told him he needs to. Eats fast food for lunch every day. Only healthy meal is dinner.

Blood flows from the left atrium, through the bicuspid valve, into the left ventricle, through the aortic semilunar valve, and then into the aortic arch b. Blood flows from the left atrium, through the aortic semilunar valve, into the left ventricle, through the bicuspid valve, and then into the aortic arch c. Blood flows from the left atrium, through the bicuspid valve, into the left ventricle, into the aortic arch, through the aortic semilunar valve, and then into systemic arterial systemarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? Please encircle your answer and in each case, explain what is incorrect. When the muscular walls of the blood vessels all over a woman’s body contract, the space inside the vessels becomes larger so her blood pressure falls. Explanation: Hypertension during pregnancy reduces the blood supply from the endometrial arteries in the mother’s uterus to the fetus via the placenta. Explanation: Hypertension reduces the amount of amniotic fluid surrounding the fetus, because the blood flow to the baby’s kidneys is reduced so it makes less urine.
