Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,D

The correct answer is a. Dysuria and d. Hematuria.

Choice A rationale:

Dysuria, or painful urination, is a common symptom of cystitis due to the inflammation of the bladder lining.

Choice B rationale:

Bradycardia, or slow heart rate, is not typically associated with cystitis. Cystitis primarily affects the urinary system and does not usually impact heart rate.

Choice D rationale:

Hematuria, or blood in the urine, can occur with cystitis due to the irritation and inflammation of the bladder lining.
