17-year-old student with type 1 diabetes asks the nurse which hormone causes the blood glucose level to rise. When responding the nurse should explain in language that the client can understand that liver glycogenolysis is stimulated by a hormone secreted by the islets of Langerhans Which hormone is this?

A. Continuing to offer a special formula to limit gagging is not a standard approach in the care of infants with cerebral palsy. The choice of formula should be based on the child's nutritional needs, and any feeding difficulties should be addressed by a healthcare professional.

B. Maintaining immobility of the limbs with splints is not recommended. Encouraging movement and mobility is important for the development and well-being of children with cerebral palsy.

C. Preserve muscle tone to prevent joint contractures.

Cerebral palsy is a condition that can lead to problems with muscle tone and movement. Preserving muscle tone is important to prevent joint contractures, which can limit mobility and cause pain. Physical therapy and exercises can help maintain muscle tone and joint flexibility in children with cerebral palsy.

D. Focusing on cognitive rather than motor skills is not appropriate. Motor skills are a crucial aspect of development for children with cerebral palsy. The approach should encompass both cognitive and motor skill development as appropriate for the child's age and abilities.

A.Anemia can be a common finding in nephrotic syndrome, often due to the loss of proteins like transferrin that are involved in red blood cell production, along with potential blood loss during episodes of proteinuria. The reduction in red blood cell production or anemia in nephrotic syndrome can also be exacerbated by decreased erythropoietin production.

B.Hypolipidemia is not a characteristic of nephrotic syndrome. In fact, nephrotic syndrome is associated with hyperlipidemia.

C.Hyperlipidemia is a classic feature of nephrotic syndrome. It results from an increase in the synthesis of lipoproteins by the liver as a compensatory mechanism to the loss of proteins (particularly albumin) in the urine.

D.Hypoproteinemia, specifically hypoalbuminemia, is a hallmark of nephrotic syndrome. The loss of protein (especially albumin) through the urine due to damaged glomeruli leads to decreased levels of proteins in the blood. This contributes to the characteristic edema seen in nephrotic syndrome.

E.Hypoglycemiais not typically associated with nephrotic syndrome. Instead, children with nephrotic syndrome generally do not experience significant changes in glucose metabolism. In fact, if anything, glucose levels may be slightly elevated in some cases due to stress or steroid treatment.
