Explain the primary anatomic structures and physiologic conditions that affect tubular reabsorption and secretion.

A HIPAA Security Rule audit includes a review of all, BUT which of the following categories?

The quantity of a drug in the bloodstream t hours after a tablet is swallowed is given, in $\mathrm{mg}$, by

$$q(t)=20\left(e^{-t}-e^{-2 t}\right)$$

(a) How much of the drug is in the bloodstream at time $t=0 ?$ (b) When is the maximum quantity of drug in the bloodstream? What is that maximum?

Drug therapy to treat the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease focuses on the loss of the neurotransmitter _____________.

What is peak level and when to take the trough level of a drug?

The process of migration described in previous question, resulting in three primary germ layers, is called ______.

Suppose an oral dose of a drug is taken. Over time, the drug is assimilated in the body and excreted through the urine. The total amount of the drug that has passed through the body in T hours is given by

$$\int_0^T E(t) d t$$

where E(t) is the rate of excretion of the drug. A typical rate-of-excretion function is $E(t)=t e^{-k t}$, where k > 0 and t is the time, in hours. Use this information for the exercise below.

A physician prescribes a dosage of 100 mg. Find k.

Due to inaccuracies in drug testing procedures (e.g., false positives and false negatives), in the medical field the results of a drug test represent only one factor in a physician's diagnosis. Yet when Olympic athletes are tested for illegal drug use (i.e., doping), the results of a single test are used to ban the athlete from competition. In Chance (Spring 2004), University of Texas biostatisticians D. A. Berry and L. Chastain demonstrated the application of Bayes' Rule for making inferences about testosterone abuse among Olympic athletes. They used the following example. In a population of 1,000 athletes, suppose 100 are illegally using testosterone. Of the users, suppose 50 would test positive for testosterone. Of the nonusers, suppose 9 would test positive.

a. Given the athlete is a user, find the probability that a drug test for testosterone will yield a positive result. This probability represents the sensitivity of the drug test.)

b. Given the athlete is a nonuser, find the probability that a drug test for testosterone will yield a negative result. (This probability represents the specificity of the drug test.)

c. If an athlete tests positive for testosterone, use Bayes' Rule to find the probability that the athlete is really doping. (This probability represents the positive predictive value of the drug test.)

A spherical tank of diameter 50 in. and wall thickness 2.0 in. contains compressed air at a pressure of 2400 psi. The tank is constructed of two hemispheres joined by a welded seam.

(a) What is the tensile load f (llb per in. of length of weld) carried by the weld?

(b) What is the maximum shear stress $\tau_{\max }$ in the wall of the tank?

(c) What is the maximum normal strain $\epsilon$ in the wall?

Data from Mexico. Refer to the previous exercise. A similar study in Mexico was conducted with 31 women and $20 \mathrm{men}$. The women averaged 14,704 words per day with a standard deviation of 6215 . For men, the mean was 15,022 and the standard deviation was 7864 .

(a) Answer the questions from the previous exercise for the Mexican study.

(b) The means for both men and women are higher for the Mexican study than for the U.S. study. What conclusions can you draw from this observation?

An art museum worker leaves an 8-foot-tall painting leaning against a wall. Later, the top of the painting slides down the wall, and the painting falls to the floor. find an equation of the path of the point $(x, y)$ as the painting falls.

A drug awareness program is being presented at a theater that seats 300 people. Proceeds will be donated to a local drug information center. If every two adults must bring at least one student, what is the maximum amount of money that can be raised?

The quantity of a drug, $Q \mathrm{mg}$, present in the body $t$ hours after an injection of the drug is given is

$$Q=f(t)=100 t e^{-0.5 t} .$$

Find $f(1), f^{\prime}(1), f(5)$, and $f^{\prime}(5)$. Give units and interpret the answers.
