Involuntary hyperventilation during an anxiety attack can cause the person to become faint because of:
1. increased levels caused by increase in cellular respiration, reducing brain perfusion and causing ischemia
2. decreased levels in the blood, causing cells to lack enough ATP
3. effects of increased levels in the blood and consequent constriction of cerebral blood vessels
4. lowered levels in the blood and consequent constriction of cerebral blood vessels
Pulmonary fibrosis is a pathological hallmark of:
1. Chronic obstructive lung disease
2. Bronchial asthma
3. Viral Pneumonia in children
4. Occupational lung diseases
