Match List I with List II

List I		List II
A	Exophthalmic goiter	I	Excess secretion of cortisol, moon face & hypergylcemia
B	Acromegaly	II	Hypo-secretion of thyroid hormone and stunted growth.
C	Cushing’s syndrome	III	Hyper secretion of thyroid hormone & protruding eye balls.
D	Cretinism	IV	Excessive secretion of growth hormone.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

The correct option is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II.

Let us understand and match each clinical condition listed in List I with its description in List II step-by-step:

A. Exophthalmic goiter: This is a form of hyperthyroidism, characterized by the hyper-secretion of thyroid hormones. A prominent symptom is exophthalmos, which results in protruding eyeballs. Thus, A matches with III.

B. Acromegaly: This condition is caused by the excessive secretion of growth hormone (GH) in adults, leading to the abnormal enlargement of bones in the face, hands, and feet. Thus, B matches with IV.

C. Cushing's syndrome: This syndrome is caused by the hyper-secretion of cortisol from the adrenal cortex. Characteristic features include a rounded "moon face", obesity, and hyperglycemia (high blood glucose level). Thus, C matches with I.

D. Cretinism: This is a condition of severely stunted physical and mental growth due to untreated congenital deficiency of thyroid hormones (hypothyroidism) during pregnancy or infancy. Thus, D matches with II.

Combining these matching pairs, we get:
A - III
B - IV
C - I
D - II
