What is the major cause of prehepatic jaundice? - ANSWER - Excessive hemolysis of red blood cells.
What occurs during hemolytic jaundice? - ANSWER - Red blood cells are destroyed at a rate exceeding the liver's ability to remove bilirubin from the blood.
What can cause hemolytic jaundice following a blood transfusion? - ANSWER - The decreased lifespan of the donated red blood cells.
What is hereditary spherocytosis? - ANSWER - A condition where red cell membranes are defective, leading to hemolytic jaundice.
What is hemolytic disease of the newborn? - ANSWER - A condition that can lead to excessive bilirubin production in newborns.
How can internal hemorrhage affect bilirubin levels? - ANSWER - It can lead to excess bilirubin production with the reabsorption of blood.

pg. 2 What causes neonatal hyperbilirubinemia? - ANSWER - Increased production of bilirubin in newborn infants and their limited ability to excrete it from 0 to 14 days old.
Why are premature infants at particular risk for hyperbilirubinemia? - ANSWER - Their red cells have a shorter lifespan and higher turnover rate.
What are the characteristics of prehepatic jaundice? - ANSWER - Mild jaundice, elevated unconjugated bilirubin, normal colored stools, and no bilirubin in the urine.

What is known about the causality of other hepatotropic viruses with liver disease? - ANSWER - Causality with significant acute or chronic liver disease has been difficult to establish.
What is the NV-F viruslike agent associated with? - ANSWER - It may exacerbate the severity of chronic hepatitis C.
What are two examples of adipokines released by visceral fat? - ANSWER - TNF-α and adiponectin.
How does excess visceral fat affect liver function? - ANSWER - It can lead to fatty liver and insulin resistance in the liver.
What health risks are associated with higher levels of adipokines and free fatty acids in obesity? - ANSWER - Cardiovascular adverse events.
What is an independent predictor of risk factors and mortality related to obesity? - ANSWER - Excess fat in the abdomen out of proportion to total body fat.
Which is a better predictor of abdominal or visceral fat content: BMI or
waist circumference? - ANSWER - Waist circumference. 3 / 4

pg. 4 What percentage of blood donors in the United States have evidence of
HGV? - ANSWER - 1.7%.
Is HGV linked to liver disease? - ANSWER - No, HGV is not linked to liver disease or exacerbations of liver disease.
What controls hunger and satiety? - ANSWER - A complex group of neurohormones.
Where are many neurohormones that control hunger produced? - ANSWER - In the gastrointestinal tract.
What is the function of neurohormones related to hunger? - ANSWER - To stimulate hunger or signal satiety.
What effects do neurohormones control regarding hunger and satiety? - ANSWER - Both short- and long-term effects.
Is there still much to learn about the management of hunger and satiety?
- ANSWER - Yes, there is still much to be learned.
What are the two types of central obesity differentiated by imaging scans? - ANSWER - Intra-abdominal adipose tissue (visceral fat) and subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue.
