Nursing QUESTION #9274

Question 6047

A 4-year-old child is admitted with painless, gross hematuria. Ultrasound shows a large unilateral intrarenal mass. The child appears otherwise well. The MOST likely diagnosis in this age group is:

Neuroblastoma
Wilms' Tumor (Nephroblastoma)✔️
Polycystic kidney disease
Renal cell carcinoma

Painless gross hematuria
Hypertension (renin secretion)
Child appears well (unlike neuroblastoma — ill-appearing)

Important physical examination note: DO NOT palpate the abdominal mass repeatedly — risk of tumor capsule rupture and metastatic seeding.

Associations:

WAGR syndrome: Wilms' + Aniridia + Genitourinary anomalies + mental Retardation (WT1 gene mutation)
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome
Hemihypertrophy

Staging and Treatment:

Stage	Description	Survival
I	Confined to kidney, completely resected	~95%
II–III	Regional extension	~85–90%
IV	Hematogenous mets (lung, liver)	~75%

Treatment: Nephrectomy + chemotherapy (actinomycin D, vincristine) ± radiotherapy. Wilms' has excellent prognosis — one of most curable solid tumors.

Administration QUESTION #9548

Question 6050

Physics QUESTION #7104

Question 6056

Which of the following is the correct relationship between Young's modulus ($Y$), bulk modulus ($K$), and modulus of rigidity ($\eta$)? [cite: 487, 488]

$Y = \frac{9K\eta}{3K-\eta}$
$Y = \frac{9K\eta}{2\eta+3K}$
$K = \frac{Y\eta}{9\eta-3Y}$✔️
$\eta = \frac{3YK}{9K+Y}$

Correct Answer Logic:

The general relationship is $\frac{9}{Y} = \frac{3}{\eta} + \frac{1}{K}$.

Rearranging for $K$: $\frac{1}{K} = \frac{9}{Y} - \frac{3}{\eta} = \frac{9\eta - 3Y}{Y\eta}$
Thus, $K = \frac{Y\eta}{9\eta - 3Y}$[cite: 492].
