Kleinman, A. (2004). Culture and depression. The New England Journal of Medicine, Volume 35 (Issue 10), pages 951-953 retrieved on October 3, 2015
The article “Culture and depression” seeks to analyze how clinical illness symptoms may vary based off of the patients culture. The author, Arthur Kleinman is a leading physician and anthropologist, and currently the Esther and Sidney Rabb Professor of Anthropology. Kleinman explains that culturally coded symptoms may confound diagnosis amongst patients. For example, Chinese immigrants symptoms appear to be more physical than physiological hence going to show that symptoms differ when it comes to depression and the patients cultural background. Treating culture as a set volatile seriously …show more content…
The authors, J. Michael and R.E Woodruff are professors from the Australian National University and S Hales is a researcher at the University of Otago, Wellington School of Medicine and Health Sciences. Twenty years of research show that the Earth’s humidity will alter in acknowledgement to greenhouse gas accretion in the air. The temperature rise since the mid seventies contributes to the theory that greenhouse gases and climate change will continue for decades to come. This article explores the growth of climate change and the impact on its surroundings. The models of health this article evokes are biomedical and physiological as it addresses risk factors associated with climate change like the transmission of infectious diseases, extreme weather events, an increase in malnourished civilians that fall under both categories. The authors are stable with educating the reader on risk factors to health from climate change, and relates to the Introduction to Health Studies as it relates strongly to the models of health that were taught in lectureEvidence that was used to support the argument was present with solid studies that were conducted for long periods of time, allowing clarification to the presence of climate change. This article draws attention to the reader as it highlights a popular,
