Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The significance of the technique of blood transfusion in blood doping.
Introduction:
The compounds that are used as performance enhancers by increasing strength, endurance, and energy are termed as anabolic-androgen steroids (AAS). These drugs are used as doping agents in athletic activities and in bodybuilding to increase muscle mass.

Endurance athletes sometimes try an illegal method of blood doping called autologous transfusion. Some blood from the athlete is removed well before competition, and then transfused back into the athlete just before competition. (a) Why might blood transfusion benefit the athlete? (b) With time, stored red blood cells become depleted in 2,3-BPG. What might be the consequences of using such blood for a blood transfusion?
Increasing the volume of the plasma would function to
(A) increase blood viscosity
(B) decrease blood viscosity
You’ve conducted tensile testing of the aorta and constituent proteins with the results show below. Estimate the modulus of elasticity for (A) collagen and (B) elastin. (C)Discuss how the properties of each extracellular protein contributes to the mechanical behavior of the aorta at high and low strain.

- (a) What is a transfusion reaction and why does it happen? (b) What are its possible consequences?arrow_forwardJohn was involved in a serious accident and lost a large volume of blood. His girlfriend, Anne, gave him distilled water while trying desperately to replenish his body fluids. She added the water directly to the blood via one of his veins. (a). How does the water get into John's blood cells? (b). What will the result be? Why?arrow_forwardSeveral years ago, the deaths of several airline travelers led to the warning about “economic-class syndrome.” The idea is that economic-class passengers do not have as much leg room as passengers in more expensive seats, so they are more likely to sit essentially motionless for long periods of flights-conditions that may allow blood to pool and clots to form in the legs. This condition is called deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT. Given what you know about blood flow in the veins, explain why periodically getting up and moving around in a plane’s cabin during a long flight may lower the risk that a cloth will form.arrow_forward

- Mr. Sampang, a male in his upper 20’s stumbled to the ground as he sustained a single gunshot wound in the right portion of the abdomen from a stray bullet suspected of coming from a neighbor having a party celebration. He was rushed to a nearby hospital where it has been assessed that he lost a significant amount of blood as a result of the incident.The initial intervention was given to control bleeding but was assessed of decreasing blood pressure and an increased heart rate. Following blood transfusion, an increase in the patient’s blood pressure, and a decrease in his heart rate were observed. 1. Is the situation related to a negative- or positive-feedback mechanism? Explain.2. Identify and explain the processes involved in the occurrence of the signs and symptoms?3. Describe homeostasis and the components of feedback mechanism and its role/s in the occurrence of the related symptoms in the scenario.arrow_forwardName the protein secreted by the blood platelets for blood clottingarrow_forwardYour patient is an 85-year-old man with congestive heart failure (CHF). BP = 145/87. He has been very ill and hasn't been eating. A blood test shows that he has hypoproteinemia (low levels of protein in the blood). Would an intravenous (IV) infusion of albumin be an appropriate treatment? Why or why not? Yes, because it would help with blood clotting. No, because it would help with blood clotting. Yes, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. No, because it would lead to an increase in blood volume. Yes, because it would decrease his blood pressure. No, because it would decrease his blood pressure. Yes, because since he doesn't have enough protein in his blood, you should add more. No, because since he doesn't have enough protein in his blood, you should add more.arrow_forward
- B. Wendy Marawi, a 35-year-old cancer patient, recently underwent a bone marrow transplant. During her teleconsultation with her doctor, she complains that she has been experiencing nausea and bowel movement discomfort, and she cannot sleep at night due to fever. The doctor requested the Blood Bank to investigate if there were some errors in the transfusion.

What other laboratory tests should be done?arrow_forwarda) Hemoglobin accounts for 95% of the protein in red blood cells. If you Google the number of hemoglobin molecules in a RBC, most sources state 250-270 million hemoglobin molecules. If hemoglobin has a molecular weight of 67,000 Da, what is the concentration of hemoglobin in RBCs? Show your work and show your units. Use dimensional analysis to have your final answer in moles per liter. B) The hemoglobin molecule is nearly spherical with a diameter of 55 Angstroms. You can look at the 3D structure of human hemoglobin on the RCSB PDB website. Calculate the volume of a hemoglobin molecule, and can the number of hemoglobin molecules quoted in Question a actually fit into one red blood cell?arrow_forward1.A patient comes into the ER who has just rapidly lost 30% of his bloodvolume. Which of the following would you predict?A)Baroreceptor afferent activity (firing rate) would be above normal.B)Blood pressure would be above normal.C)Plasma vasopressin would be above normal.D)Plasma angiotensin II would be below normal.E)Atrial "B" fiber activity (firing rate) would be above normal.arrow_forward
