1 Cause specific death rate.
2 Case fatality rate.
3 Standardized mortality ratio.
4 Five year survival
Answer is 2 K PARK - PSM 17th ed/49 (repeat)
Case fatality rate represents the killing power of a disease. It is simply the ratio of deaths to cases. So It is a ratio not the true rate. Case fatality rate is closely related to virulence.
Total No. Of death d/t a particular disease X 100 =C.F.R Total No. Of cases d/t the same disease
2. Distribution of blood flow is mainly regulated by the:
1 Arteries
2 Arterioles
3 Capillaries
4 Venules
Answer is 2
GANONG ,S REVIEW OF PHYSIOLOGY ED 19 Pg-579
Blood flow in the vessels primarily due to pumping action of the heart
Other factors are diastolic recoil of walls of arteries, pumping action skeletal muscle on
veins and negative intrathoracic pressure
Regulation of Blood flow to each tissue is depends on the diameter of the vessels
principally of arterioles. Resistance to flow mostly depends on diameter of arterioles and to a minor degree on the viscosity of the blood. Arterioles are the major site of the resistance to blood flow and small change in their caliber causes large change in the total peripheral resistance.
