Endocrine System Quiz

The mechanism of the anti-inflammatory action of glucocorticoids:

• inhibit the activity of COX 1

• inhibit the activity of COX 2

• inhibit the activity of phospholipase A2

• stimulate opiate receptors

• stimulate benzodiazepine receptors

Functional activity of the adrenal glands during long-term therapy with glucocorticoids:

• increases

• does not change

• decreases

• initially decreases, then increases sharply

• at the beginning it increases, then decreases

Mineralocorticoid drugs include:

• insulin

• triamcinolone

• nandrolone

• deoxycortone

• prednisolone

List anti-inflammatory drugs with steroid structure:

• suprastin, diprazine

• hydrocortisone, tavegil

• prednisone, hydrocortisone

• diphenhydramine, prednisone

• intal, hydrocortisone

Anti-inflammatory, antiallergic and immunosuppressive effects are caused by:

• glucocorticoids

• anabolic steroids

• estrogens

• gestagens

• progestrogens

Specify a synthetic glucocorticoid preparation:

• cortisol

• actrapid

• humulin

• prednisone

• hydrocortisone

Which of the following side effects are most typical for prednisolone:

• osteoporosis, hyperglycemia, immunosuppression, increased blood pressure, edema

• dyspepsia, anemia, agranulocytosis, ulcerogenic deistane, hepatitis

• ulcerogenic effect, dyspepsia, inhibition of platelet aggregation

• drug dependence, depression of the thermoregulation center, addiction

• anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic effect

What type of therapy includes long-term use of steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (glucocorticoids)

• inhibitory

• replacement

• symptomatic

• preventive

• pulse therapy

Steroid diabetes, steroid gastric ulcer, Itsenko-Cushing syndrome, immunodeficiency - characteristic complications of the drug:

• calcium-D3

• auronofik

• penicillamine

• methylprednisolone

• aflutol

Prednisolone, dexamethasone, triamcinolone are drugs with the following characteristics:

• inhibit inflammatory reactions, which involve delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions

• inhibit COX, reduce the formation of prostaglandins, used for inflammatory diseases of the joints

• steroid hormones, have anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects

• drugs necessary for the regeneration of bone and joint tissue, restoration of degenerative processes

• slow down the destruction of bone tissue and reduce calcium loss, accelerate the process of bone tissue restoration
