Breath sounds are mildly decreased throughout al lung feaths, and then we z concentration is 125 mEq/L. Which of the following is the most likely direct cause of this patient's facial edema? OA) Angioedema from angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors OB) Impaired cardiac filling from cardiac tamponade C) Increased vascular permeability from C1 inhibitor deficiency OD) Obstruction of the superior vena cava from extrinsic compression E) Obstruction of the thoracic duct from tumor infiltration

31. A 6-year-old boy is brought to the physician by his mother because of intermittent upper abdominal pain during the past 5 weeks and a rash for 1 week. Vital signs are norma Physical examination shows yellow nodules over the extensor surfaces of the upper extremities. There is hepatomegaly and tenderness on palpation of the epigastric regior Serum studies show an increased amylase activity, increased chylomicron concentration, and a markedly increased triglyceride concentration. Three months after beginning restricted diet, his serum chylomicron and triglyceride concentrations decrease significantly, and the skin lesions resolve. A deficiency of which of the following enzymes is likely cause of these findings? O A) Acetyl-CoA carboxylase O B) HMG-CoA lyase O C) HMG-CoA reductase O D) Hormone-sensitive lipase O E) Lipoprotein lipase
