Patient “Paul” is a 54 year-old Caucasian male being seen in the clinic following a recent hospital discharge 1 week ago for acute myocardial infarction. During his admission, he underwent a heart catheterization and subsequent drug-eluting stent placement to the left anterior descending coronary artery. He was initiated on atorvastatin, aspirin, and clopidogrel therapy in the hospital and discharged on these medications in addition to his previous home regimen.
Upon presentation to the clinic, the patient was noticeably limping and when asked, he stated that his hip pain has gotten much worse over the past few months. He was previously able to control the pain with OTC naproxen and acetaminophen, however he says that these medications have not been working as well lately. Additionally, he states that his legs have been swollen since he was discharged from the hospital. The swelling seems to be better in the morning, but gets worse the longer he is on his feet, so he has been spending a lot of time in his recliner. He is worried that it may interfere with him going back to work as an elementary school teacher.

1. (Triglyceridase/Lipoprotein lipase/Lipoprotein hydrase/Pyruvate) is an enzyme that removed excess triglycerides from the bloodstream and put them into fat storage. This enzyme is found to have a higher rate of activity in obese individuals.
2. When more calories are taken in than expended energy balance is said to be (consistent/positive/negative/reversed)
3. Adipose tissue is made up of both fat and the (myofibrils/osteocytes/adipocytes/neurons) that store the fat.
4. The enzyme responsible for pulling circulating, excess triglycerides out of the bloodstream and placing them into fat storage is called (triglycerades/Lipoprotein lipase/protease/hydrolase)
5. While genetics have been found to play a role in a person’s susceptibility to develop obesity, lifestyle factors such as diet, stress management, and physical activity have been shown to play a role in the development of obesity. These factors are known as (epigenetic/ susceptibility/ genetic/ intrinsic) factors
6.When body fat increases, the hormone (cortisol/leptin/testosterone/ ghrelin) increases suppresses appetite.
7. (Gherlin/ Estrogen/ Norleptin/ Norepinephrine) is produced in the stomach and promotes appetite and weight gain. Levels generally increase before a meal and decrease after a meal.
