In general, therapeutic interventions for a patient with osteoporosis will probably include drugs that

A. Hemiparesis of the left arm and leg with nystagmus: A left hemispheric stroke typically affects the right side of the body.

B. Eyelid and mouth drooping on the ipsilateral side: Facial drooping due to a stroke typically occurs on the contralateral side of the body.

C. Homonymous hemianopia of the left visual field of both eyes: A left hemispheric stroke typically causes right-sided homonymous hemianopia.

D. Hemiparesis of the right arm and leg with aphasia: A left hemispheric stroke often results in right-sided hemiparesis and can affect language centers, leading to aphasia.

A. Diminished serum albumin levels cause water to shift from blood to tissue: In cirrhosis, liver dysfunction leads to decreased production of albumin, a protein that helps maintain oncotic pressure. Low albumin levels cause fluid to shift from the vascular space into the tissues, resulting in ascites and peripheral edema.

B. Portal hypotension causes a fluid shift from the abdominal cavity into the portal veins: Portal hypertension, not hypotension, is a common feature of cirrhosis, but it leads to ascites by increasing pressure in the portal venous system, not by shifting fluid into the portal veins.

C. Hypoaldosteronism causes a fluid volume deficit: shifting water from blood into tissue: Cirrhosis often leads to hyperaldosteronism, not hypoaldosteronism, resulting in sodium and water retention, which contributes to edema.

D. Aberrations of the portal system cause a back-up of blood that leads to hydronephrosis: Hydronephrosis is related to obstruction of the urinary tract, not a complication of portal hypertension or cirrhosis.
