Answer 1

Ans)

1) * If the serum prolactin level is elevated, the dopamine agonists like the bromocriptine are the major and usual treatment.These medicines support the encephalon to make dopamine to manage enhanced prolactin levels.They are also able to diminish the prolactinoma tumors.

2) INTERPRETATION OF LIPID PROFILE

* Low density lipoprotein range from 70-130 mg/dl and if it is lower,the it is healthier.

  * High density lipoprotein range greater than 40-60 mg/dl and the greater range is healthier.

* Whole cholesterol range less than 200 mg/dl and the lower range is more healthier.

* The triglyceride range from 10-150 mg/dl and the lower range will be more healthier.

3) The normal or standard range of triglyceride is, lower than 150 mg/dl.

The Marginal high range from 150-199 mg/dl

The high range of triglyceride range from 200-499 mg/dl

The elevated triglyceride is caused by overweight or fatness,badly controlled diabetes,over consumption of alcohol,kidney problems and hypothyroidism.

4) The normal or recommended range of low density lipoprotein must be lower than 100 mg/dl and the LDL range from 100-129 mg/dl are also allowed for the individuals with no health problems,but it is very dangerous for the individuals suffering from heart problems.The marginal high level of LDL is 130-159 mg/dl and LDL range from 160-189 are extremely high.

The LDL goal is,lower than 100 mg/dl with a medicinal method of treating to below 70 mg/dl .For the clients in danger whose LDL range is so far under 100 mg/dl,there is also an choice to utilize medicinal therapy to arrive at lower than 70 mg/dl goal.

5) The urinalysis is a group of medical assessments which discover some usual disorders.There can be RBC's present in urinalysis and RBC present in urine is commonly known as hematuria.Two kinds of hematuria are there and they are GRoss hematuria- Blood is seen in the urine and Microscopic hematuria- Presence of RBC can be only noticed by using a microscope.

This appearance of blood in the urine are the indications of some health problems like the vexation of tissues present in urinary tract and inflammation.The medicines used for RBC in urinalysis are aspirine,blood thinners and antibiotics.
