biological approach to health. In Western cultures it is seen as the absence of disease (Gurung, 2014). An individual culture plays a key part in how they view health and what are healthy behaviors.

Liquid-based Cytology (LBC): Automation of LBC and an Appraisal of the UK National Cervical Screening Programme. Introduction The study of cells’ structure, morphology and arrangement to determine the cause, pathophysiology or type of disease is known as cytopathology. Cervical screening is a common diagnostic gynaecological service that is used to help diagnose it. Cervical Cancer is “the third leading cause of cancer in women worldwide” (Freitas et al, 2012, p. 305). The Human Papilloma Virus…

The Human Gene Therapy was introduced several decades ago; it is a procedure that is being created to cure individual patient suffering from any kind of genetic diseases, also consider as a logical and straightforward solution towards the genetic disorder in a human (Kolehmainen par. 1).

Gene Therapy in human first takes place…

Defining the meaning of what constitutes as health, illness and disease is…
indicator of whether or not they will develop the disease gene is rarely a guarantee that a person will develop that disease. “Most genetic diseases result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Diseases caused by a single gene, such as Huntington’s disease and cystic fibrosis, are less common than diseases caused by multiple factors, such as breast cancer and heart disease” (Genetic Testing 5). The chances of getting rid of a disease by using genetic testing is actually not a…
and they very rarely die of Zika. Thus, for this reason, many people might not realize they have acquired the infection. The good news is that once a person has been infected, he or she is likely to be protected from future infections by developing disease-related specific antibodies.

In 1952, the first human cases of Zika were…
