The most common cause of death in anaphylactic shock is respiratory failure resulting from bronchoconstriction and laryngeal edema. Immediate airway management and bronchodilation are critical in the treatment of anaphylaxis.

The wavelength of X-ray photon depends upon kilo voltage.

The wavelength of X-rays is inversely proportional to their energy, and the energy of X-ray photons is determined by the kilo voltage (kV) used in the X-ray tube. Higher kV results in higher energy and shorter wavelength photons, which are more penetrating and are used for imaging denser tissues, while lower kV results in lower energy and longer wavelength photons, which are less penetrating and are used for imaging softer tissues. The other factors mentioned (milli amperage, distance between source and object, and quantity of electrons in the cathodic stream) affect the intensity of the X-ray beam but not the wavelength of the photons.

In restrictive lung disease, the FEV1/FVC ratio and compliance of the lung are decreasing.

Restrictive lung diseases, such as pulmonary fibrosis or severe asthma, are characterized by a decrease in the lung's ability to expand due to factors like stiffening of the lung tissue or a reduction in the volume of the thoracic cavity. As a result, the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) is reduced in relation to the forced vital capacity (FVC), leading to a decreased FEV1/FVC ratio. Additionally, the compliance of the lung, which is a measure of the lung's ability to expand and contract, is also decreased in these conditions because the lung tissue becomes less elastic.
