The document discusses acute shock caused by excessive inflammatory mediators and the immediate need for epinephrine treatment. It describes Type I hypersensitivity, its diagnosis, and prevention through avoidance, along with a discussion on immunodeficiency diseases categorized into congenital and acquired types. Individuals with immunodeficiency diseases experience repeated infections depending on the specific immune system components affected.

1. Please answer all questions.
5. When the inflammatory mediators exceed the body's coping mechanisms, acute shock may
occur, which requires immediate treatment with epinephrine. 6. Type I hypersensitivity can be
diagnosed by and can be partially prevented by avoidance of and by 7. Some type I
hypersensitivities are treated with IMMUNODEFICIENCY DISEASES 1. develop when the
body cannot launch or sustain an immune response and may be classified as: a.
immunodeficiency diseases, which result from mutations or developmental anomalies and occur
in young children, are present from birth, resulting from a genetic defect or developmental
abnormality. They are generally rare and may affect B cells, T cells, natural killer (NK) cells,
phagocytes, or complement components. b. immunodeficiency diseases, occur after birth,
perhaps due . The most significant example of an acquired immunodeficiency is (AIDS). c.
People with either type of immunodeficiency tend to have repeated infections; the types of
infections often depend on which part of the immune system is affected.
