Diarrhea

Lanugo

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,B,D,E

Hypotension, bradycardia, lanugo, and Russell's sign. Rationale: Hypotension and bradycardia are common manifestations of anorexia nervosa due to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and decreased cardiac output. Lanugo is fine hair that covers the body as a result of decreased body fat and thermoregulation. Russell's sign is calluses or scars on the knuckles or hands from self-induced vomiting. Diarrhea is not a typical finding of anorexia nervosa.
