Recently, increasing promiscuity and risky sexual behaviors have raised awareness and concern among various institutions of the society. The prevalence of sexual activity among teenage men and women has serious negative implications that call for an immediate address and solution of the problem. All such implications are now being further worsened by the rise of technology, such as mobile phones and Internet, making communication easier and faster. Technological improvements worsen the problem of teenage risky sexual engagements and promiscuity with the emergence of “sexting.” Sexting or the exchange of sexually suggestive material over any digital platforms is now being Continue reading...

Critical illness is a life threatening state typically preceded by a period of multisystem deterioration (Robertson & Al-Haddad, 2013). Critically-ill patients are intubated and mechanically ventilated if they cannot breathe on their own. Supporting breathing in this manner is a lifesaving intervention. Sedation is a prerequisite to mechanical ventilation. The aim is to facilitate tolerance of intubation, reduce pain levels and anxiety, and enhance synchrony between patient and the ventilator (Hughes, McGrane & Pandharipande, 2012). Mechanical ventilation, however, is not beneficial to the patient’s breathing if it is prolonged unnecessarily.
One complication of mechanical ventilation is ventilator-acquired pneumonia (VAP) or Continue reading...

Introduction

Retinopathy is a frequent complication of diabetes mellitus especially when blood sugar is poorly controlled. The retina is the part of the eye that transforms light into signals transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve (NHS UK 2013). The brain interprets the electrical signals into images corresponding to what was seen. While sufficient blood supply is needed for the retina to function optimally, chronic hyperglycaemia causes ischemia and bleeding in the retinal microvasculature leading to the formation of new capillaries meant to sustain blood circulation in the retina (Vithian & Hurel 2010). However, the new capillaries are fragile and Continue reading...

The object of the study is to explore whether there is a relationship between music, video games, and stress leading to deviance behavior. That is, the current research is aimed at understandings whether music predicts deviant behavior, whether video games are linked to deviance, and whether stress is linked to deviant behavior. To determine whether there is whether music, video games, and stress predict deviance, a literature review will be conducted. I chose this study because there is an increasing prevalence of deviant behaviors hence the need to establish the causes. Therefore, reading of my research is important because it helps the reader to understand the factors linked to deviance. Consequently, readers will be in a better position to reduce the increasing prevalence of deviance among the youth. The project fits within the existing literature because it helps to clarify whether deviance is associated with each of the variables mentioned earlier.

Abstract

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a condition that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. In the ED, a current guideline pertains to the investigation of possible PE. It employs the Wells criteria as a clinical decision rule in predicting the likelihood or not of PE. Alternative criteria has since been developed such as the Geneva score and the PERC. It needs to be known if the Wells score remains the best tool for use in predicting PE diagnosis. A PICO question was formulated leading to the search, retrieval, and appraisal of related studies. The use of standard criteria is recommended in Continue reading...

The problem of widespread smoking is undoubtedly something that every country worldwide faces. Its negative impacts on health are already well-established that it has already prompted various authorities worldwide to take an action and reduce its debilitating effects on people—both smokers and non-smokers. In light of such efforts, various methods to persuade smokers to quit smoking tobacco and cigarettes, especially in public places, have been promoted and among these is the use of what is now called the electronic cigarette or e-cigarette. E-cigarette is widely viewed as a replacement to conventional tobacco-products used for smoking. As a replacement Continue reading...

Introduction

The human Bocavirus (HBoV) is a novelty in the medical field as it was just a recently discovered pathogen in 2005. Liu (2011) indicated that its origin is from the Parvoviridae family of virus. There are growing debates about the HBoV epidemiologic contribution as independent causative agent in other diseases, such as respiratory disease and gastroenteritis based on its clinical presentation, with the presence of co-infections that add to the complexities of clinical findings, which this paper seeks to obtain better clinical insights based on the various literatures and clinical studies about the human Bocavirus.

Discussion

The human Bocavirus is Continue reading...

The amount of stress an individual has in his or her life has a direct impact on that individual’s health. There is no denying that high levels of stress can cause severe impacts on health and wellness, but when an individual experiences only low levels of stress, there can also be problems in health and general well-being. People are designed to undergo stressful situations, and the sympathetic nervous system is similarly designed to be stimulated; without stimulation, the nervous system becomes depressed, and there can be problems over time.
Stress can come from a variety of different places Continue reading...

Abstract

Building designs in the tropics are driven by many factors that tend to make the thermal ambient environment comfortable to the inhabitants. The key factors that drive tropical building designs include temperature, humidity, radiation and wind speed. These factors determine the way by which tropical homes are structured, their orientation, openings in the home, window spaces and so forth. Needless to say, culture and tradition of the people is a vital force responsible for building design styles in the tropics. Environmental psychology is a vital concern itself regarding the way the environment affects man. It tends to emphasize on Continue reading...

Introduction

Anderson and Kiehl (2012) identify amygdala as a section of the human brain positioned to the left and right temporal lobes. The amygdala controls emotion memory and emotional expressions by linking them to other regions of the human brain (Hariri and Weinberger, 2009). Studies on animals and humans show that the presence of emotionally relevant stimuli activates one amygdala neuron. The middle nucleus of the amygdala helps the brain to express emotional reactions supported by aversive stimuli. The stimuli purposely generate fear responses, such as strident startling noises, heights, odors, scaring strangers, huge animals, or certain sounds. Researchers believe Continue reading...

For many years, psychiatrists linked infantile autism with schizophrenia. There was even a terminological "confusion", as the term "autism" therapists represent pathognomonic symptom of schizophrenia in which the patient loses touch with reality and gradually loses the need to communicate with strangers at first, and then with close relatives. Kanner used the term "infantile autism" as the name of the disorder, Continue reading...

Medicine

Introduction
Identifying the causative agent of infection is essential for successful diagnosis, targeted antibiotic treatment and epidemiological investigations (Mullis and Faloona, 1987). Most of the microorganisms are slow-growing or nonculturable microorganisms and thus make their identification difficult (Mullis and Faloona, 1987; Li et al, 2008). The process of genotyping using molecular based techniques provide a suitable alternate and allow the identification of the entire microorganism based on their genetic constituents (Tenover et al, 1997). Nonspecific molecular analysis using broad range PCR is based on the conserved sequence thus detect any kind of bacterial DNA present in a sample through Continue reading...

Removal to Red Power

Introduction
This paper critically explores and analyzes the motives behind the Dawes Act. the law has had a negative impact on American Indians, as it committed to public ownership of real estate, which provided each shelter and a place in the tribe. From the beginning, the functioning of the state policy for Native Americans focused on their complete assimilation and the complete destruction of the national identity (Reich, D. et al., 2012, pp.370–374). However, it meant the permanent loss of an Indian traditional way of life and the elimination of the traditional system of values, which, in particular, Continue reading...

Introduction

The human Bocavirus (HBoV) is a novelty in the medical field as it was just a recently discovered pathogen in 2005. Liu (2011) indicated that its origin is from the Parvoviridae family of virus, which manifestations can be widespread, depending upon the immunologic and hematologic status of the host. The HBoV is also identified to occur with co-infection with other viruses that cause respiratory disease, but there has been indication that it is not a main causative factor for respiratory disease as the virus is also detected in gastroenteritis. There are growing debates about the HBoV epidemiologic contribution in Continue reading...

Renowned scholar and cultural critic George Lipsitz famously opined: “Those of us who are ‘white’ can only become part of the solution if we recognize the degree to which we are already part of the problem—not because of our race but because of our possessive investment in it" (Lipsitz, 2006, p. 22). Lipsitz unequivocally believed that in order for society to progress into an entity characterized by liberty and equality, it must escape from this hegemonic paradigm Lipsitz refers to as “the possessive investment in whiteness” (p. 1). This construction of whiteness is quite unclear and often does Continue reading...

LITERATURE REVIEW

Corporate Responsibility in Creating Environmental Values
Corporate social responsibility is a result of the dwindling resources facing mankind (Gray, 2006). The quality of life will diminish significantly by the first part of the twenty-first century if aggressive steps aren’t taken. However, this seems in the distant future to a society based on ever-expanding consumerism, a business environment focused on consistent growth, and an audience not entirely convinced of the prospect.
Corporations have a responsibility only to the government in adherence to law and to the stockholders for acquisition of profit. With increasing awareness of the potential for corporations Continue reading...

By definition, abortion refers to a deliberate termination of a pregnancy. Even so, the act is done to end an unwanted or unplanned pregnancy. There are safe and unsafe abortions with the former consisting of in-clinic practices performed by a qualified physician or nurse (Grimes and Brandon 32). In this case, the practitioner either safely removes the pregnancy using medical instruments and gentle suction or uses medication. In medication abortion, the women take pills that make her uterus expel the gestation tissue and end the pregnancy. On the other hand, an unsafe abortion refers to the ending of a pregnancy by an unqualified individual or in an environment that is not up to the required medical standards. Use of high-dose medication, insertion of a sharp object into the womb, flushing the uterus with harmful liquids, and physical abuse are all forms of unsafe abortions (Grimes and Brandon 31). Women, who go for unsafe abortions are often ignorant of the adverse consequences to which they expose themselves. Whether safe or unsafe, abortion has noteworthy negative effects, particularly on the psychological, physiological, and economic fronts.

The diagnosis and staging of cancer

Cancer treatment and management of symptoms is a complex process that relies on the level of accuracy afforded by the clinician during diagnosis and the presumptive development of the care plan. In the first or initial point of meeting the patient, the clinician will focus on the physical examination, history examination and more importantly the history of the symptoms (MacLeod, MacLeod & Vella-Brincat, 2012). Thus, the cancer diagnosis can be categorized into two major sections which however seek to achieve similar objectives and that is to provide the presumptive evidence that is vital in the treatment and management. These include Continue reading...

There are various methods applied when charging a car battery. However, in the case of an automotive battery, it is automatically charged when the engine is turned on. A car battery is made up of lead plates and an electrolyte that stores voltage (Bertness, Kevin and Michael, 198). When the engine is turned on, an alternator attached to the engine and the battery, produces electric currents that are stored in the battery. Most alternators have an in-built regulator that determines the amount of voltage/charge a battery receives and stores. In any automotive engine, there is a serpentine belt that Continue reading...

Migraine is a complicated neurobiological syndrome that has been identified for quite a long time. A lot of studies exist on this subject matter. The main aspects of this disorder are throbbing and unilateral headache. It is commonly caused as a result of sensitivity to light and sound. It is considered as a vascular syndrome due to the pulsating aspect of the head. Nevertheless, the vascular alterations in the body do not fully support the pathophysiology of migraine symptoms. In fact, about 33% patients do not experience throbbing headache.
Migraine causes severe painful attacks of headache. As well, the Continue reading...
