Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. This statement accurately reflects the importance of adherence to ART; if medication is missed, the virus may replicate unchecked, leading to drug resistance, which is a significant concern in HIV treatment.

B. This statement is incorrect because the conversion of RNA to DNA is a normal part of the HIV life cycle and is not directly prevented by taking medication on time.

C. While protease inhibitors do help prevent the assembly of new virions, the primary concern when missing doses is the risk of resistance rather than assembly prevention.

D. This statement is misleading; while effective ART can lead to an increase in CD4 counts over time, missing doses would not directly cause an increase in CD4 lymphocyte counts.

A. Red blood cells (RBC) and hemoglobin (Hg) B. Leukocyte count (WBC) C. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) D. Thrombocyte count

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Red blood cells (RBC) and hemoglobin (Hg) levels are directly affected by epoetin alfa, which stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow, making these values essential for assessing the medication's effectiveness.

B. The leukocyte count (WBC) is not relevant to the effects of epoetin alfa, as this medication primarily influences erythropoiesis rather than white blood cell production.

C. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a non-specific test used to detect inflammation but does not provide information regarding the effectiveness of epoetin alfa.

D. The thrombocyte count does not assess the effectiveness of epoetin alfa, as this medication is specifically aimed at increasing red blood cell production.
