NURS 3130 Chapter Notes - Chapter 17: Diabetes Mellitus Type 1, Thyroid, Basal Metabolic Rate
Document Summary
Give a basic overview of the endocrine system. Maintain body internal environments, regulates growth and development, controls body functions that affects the heart, kidneys, lungs, and brain. Also, it responds to internal/external stressors such as infection and trauma. Containing soy for a certain period of time can actually enlarge the thyroid gland. Negative feedback has a hormone that controls the secretion of another hormone. Regulation promotes stability and equilibrium, aiming to maintain a system at a desired set point. In positive feedback systems, the effector of a process bolsters the stimulus, which increases the production of the product. One common example of a positive feedback system in living things is blood clotting. Increases basal metabolic rate which increases the speed of the cell function. It strongly affects cardiovascular, respiratory, gi, and neuromuscular. To lower the activity of the thyroid hormone.
