Cynthia, a 53-year-old female presented to the emergency room due to feeling constantly tired, hungry, thirsty, and with frequent urination. Her past medical history is significant for cirrhosis and end-stage kidney disease. Physical examination had revealed yellowish discoloration to the skin, multiple bruises, bilateral edema, and weakness lasting more than three weeks. Laboratory tests were ordered (results provided below) after which she was prescribed metformin and informed to contact a doctor if she starts experiencing nausea, vomiting, fast breathing, and/or lethargy, as metformin has been known to cause metabolic acidosis. Complete Blood Count (CBC) Sodium 126 mEq/L Glucose 220 mmol/L Calcium 7.1 mg/dl Red blood cell count 3.9 cells/ul Iron 40 mcg/dL Albumin 2.5 g/dl Vitals Blood pressure 92/64 mmHg Hormone Panel Renin Low ADH Elevated Aldosterone Low Vitamins Vit D Low Vit K Low Vit E Low Vit A Low Urine and Stool Sample Stool color Gray Stool content Increase fat content Urine color Clear Complete Blood Count (CBC) Glucose Present Answer the following questions regarding Cynthia’s case: What hormone is not functioning properly causing Cynthia’s glucose levels to be abnormal? Furthermore, explain in depth how this hormone regulates blood glucose levels. What other hormone(s) are responsible for maintaining normal glucose levels? Explain in depth how they work. Explain why Cynthia is presenting with excessive thirst (polydipsia), tiredness and hunger (polyphagia), and frequent urination (polyuria). Explain why Cynthia is experiencing hypotension. How does the body and its various organ systems bring the blood pressure back towards homeostasis? What do you expect Cynthia’s heart rate and end-diastolic volume (EDV) to be (elevated, normal, or low) and justify your expectation with cardiovascular formulas such as cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV). What is the importance of iron in the body and the consequence of it being 40 mcg/dL? Explain in detail what gluconeogenesis is and where in the body it occurs? Knowing that gluconeogenesis helps maintain blood glucose level, what is the effect of metformin on the management of diabetes mellitus type 2? Looking at Cynthia’s albumin levels, what effect does it have on her (a) blood osmolarity (b) glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and (c) urine volume? Explain how glucose is normally reabsorbed by the kidneys? What is happening in Cynthia’s kidneys resulting in glucosuria and what effect does glucosuria have on her blood pressure? If Cynthia ends up developing metabolic acidosis, what would the levels of her pH, CO2, and HCO3 be in the blood? Furthermore, how would the body compensate and address both renal and respiratory compensation (optional: show the compensation via a flow chart)?

16). Krystee Connolly, a paralegal in a litigation firm, has finished reading a brief
that the opposing side submitted to the court in support of a motion for summary
judgment. In the brief, she notices a citation to a state supreme court case of which
she is unaware. She is experienced in the field and keeps current with new cases
as they are decided. She wants to look at the case because it gives the other side
a winning edge. She checks in the case digests and state encyclopedias, as well
as on Westlaw. She checks the state supreme court’s website and sees no record
of such a case. She asks the legal assistant for the
opposing counsel to give her a copy of the case. When she does not receive it, she
decides that the case is probably fictional. What should Krystee do?
17). Define the following types of appellate court decisions found in the chapter.

18). Barbara is a legal assistant in a very busy litigation practice. One day, she gets
a call from a nervous attorney in her firm thirty minutes before the attorney is to
appear in court. He wants her to do some research before he goes to court. He has
just heard about a case decided two years ago that might help him win, and he
gives her the citation. Because he is in a hurry, he gives her the wrong volume
number. She has a hard time finding the case, but after about fifteen minutes of
searching, she locates the citation. She quickly copies the case and runs to his
office with it so that he can hurry across the street to the court for his appearance.
She is in such a hurry that she forgets to check the subsequent history of the case.
It turns out that the case had been overruled by the state supreme court and was
therefore no longer controlling in the jurisdiction. The attorney is chastised by the
judge for citing it. In fact, the judge is so annoyed with the attorney for making an
argument that is not based on existing law that he denies the attorney’s motion and
makes the attorney pay the other side’s court costs. When the client finds out why
the motion was denied, she is irate. Does the client have any remedy against
theattorney? Against Barbara?

Sleeping Beauty can sue Prince Charming for assault and battery. What would the
paralegal’s research goals be? -
