According to the Lambert-Beer Law, every solute in solution has an optimal wavelength of maximalSpectrophotometry, the measurement of light absorbance by a solute in solution, is an important assay technique in clinical chemistry. According to the Lambert-Beer Law, every solute in solution has an optimal wavelength of maximal absorbance of the light energy at that wavelength. This property is explained by the Molar Extinction Coefficient (E, which describes the chemical nature of the solution), the concentration of the solute (C), and the length of the light path L, usually 1 cm). The Lambert-Beer Law is quantified in the following equation: Absorbance=E.C.L. Drabkin's reagent, a solution containing 12 mmol liter" NaHCO3, 0.77 mmol liter" KCN and 0.88 mmol . liter KaFe(CN)6, is used to assay the concentration of hemoglobin ([Hb]) in whole blood. The light absorbance at 540 nm (ABS540) is proportional to the concentration of cyanmethemoglobin ([CyanmetHb]), which is in turn directly proportional to [Hb]. Preparation of a new Drabkin's solution requires the running of a "standard curve" to determine the relationship between ABS540 and known concentrations of [Hb], known as "standards." The data in the table below are ABS540 mean of triplicate measures of standard samples (X) containing standard [Hb] concentrations of 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 grams. 100 ml blood ! (Y). Twenty (20) ul of well mixed whole blood is suspended in 5 ml of Drabkin's reagent. The 2 erythrocytes (red blood cells) are hemolyzed by the Drabkin's reagent with the resulting formation of a cyanmethemoglobin compound that optimally absorbs light at a wave length of 540 nm. An exercise physiologist has prepared a new Drabkin's reagent solution for Hb determination (prediction) in observing acclimatization in males during 30 days altitude exposure (4,300 m).

What statistical procedure is used to predict or determine the [Hb] in known blood samples based on the strong association between [Hb] and ABS540? a. dependent t-test b. multiple linear regression simple linear regression d. repeated measures ANOVA e. Pearson product moment correlation coefficient12. Select the correct statement. a. The coefficient of determination is the proportion of error variance. 1-r is the common or shared variance. 99.9% of the variance in [Hb] is explained by ABS540 in the standard curve for this cyanmethemoglobin solution 13. Select the correct option below regarding hemoglobin concentration [Hb] and ABS$40- a. [Hb] = 8.732 + (0.030 .ABS540) b. [Hb] = -0.002 + (8.734.ABS$40) [Hb] = -0.069 + (33.521.ABS 540) [Hb] -0.166 + (30.02-ABS540) There is insufficient information to determine [Hb] from ABS$40. 14. [Hb] was assayed as 15.5+1.0 g-100 ml" (n=15, Meants) at sea level. After 30 days at 4,300 m, the mean for ABS540 in 20 ml blood samples was 0.555. The post-acclimatization mean [Hb] in the subjects was g.100 ml" which is consistent with the well-documented in plasma volume early in acclimatization followed by a(n) in erythrocyte (red blood cell) production reflecting later in acclimatization. a. 16.8 / increase / decrease / anemia b. 13.8 / increase / increase / anemia C . 16.8 / decrease / increase / polycythemia 13.8 / decrease / decrease / polycythemia e. 16.8 / increase / increase / anemia 15.

Subjects were older females (265 years, n-5,921) without any mental or physical impairments at baseline. Cognitive function was measured by modified Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at baseline and at 6-8 years of follow-up. Physical activity in kcal week was estimated by survey of recreational activities, city blocks walked, and flights of stairs climbed (Columns C and D). During follow-up, cognitive decline, defined as 23 point decline in MMSE compared to baseline, was observed in n=1,178 (Column E).

Compared to the lowest physical activity quartile, only the fourth (highest) quartile had lower cognitive decline in older females. Compared to the lowest physical activity quartile, the third and fourth quartiles had lower cognitive decline in older females. C . Compared to the lowest physical activity quartile, the second, third, and fourth quartiles had lower cognitive decline in older females. d. There is no evidence that higher weekly physical activity is associated with decreased cognitive decline in older females. 44 Suppose the researchers decided to match subjects with cognitive decline with subjects from the same population without cognitive decline and compare histories of exposures to factors (including physical activity) that might affect the different numbers of existing cases in these two groups. The percentage of existing cognitive decline cases in each group is known as a(n) rate.
