She was diagnosed as being in a persistent vegetative state , surgeons inserted a feeding tube for her long term care.In 1987 Cruzan's parents went to court to ask that the feeding tube be removed…

fever and the death of Professor Kolletschka were one and the same because they both consist pathologically of the same anatomic changes. If, therefore, in the case of Professor Kolletschka . . . septic changes . . . arose from the inoculation of cadaver particles, then puerperal fever must originate from the same source. . . . (as qtd. in Tans & Brown,…

The lights in the ER blink as the storm rages on outside. I snap back from the sadness of the weather to the job at hand. I rush to the ER to see my patient has broken bones, a punctured lung, and a laceration along his calf. There’s so much blood everywhere, coming from every open wound on his body. His muscles torn apart and his heart pounding, trying to stay alive. Now was my chance everything I learned about anatomy could help me in this moment. No more time to be wasted I go into the room…

fact of neuro-anatomy has recently been upset by two independent studies, revealing that the brain does, in fact, have a functional lymphatic system. Although this study was originally done on mice brains, there have been similar findings in human cadaver brains. We know that the lymphatic system provides the body with a waste disposal system, and it has long been thought that the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) was the method by which excretory waste was eliminated from the CNS. This functional…

feelings ripped apart and puts a great amount of tension and stress on a marriage. If you think about it, burying a child goes against the natural order of things. A parent hopes that after a long and fruitful life, his/her child will be putting their cadaver to rest, not laying their young child to rest after a short life. Justine and Erick have been married for a little over ten years and had an 8-year-old daughter named Jade. On Saturday morning, Erick was driving Jade to soccer practice when…

Callaway wasn't the first to pursue the lost garden. Columbus went inspecting for it in Venezuela. Dr. Livingstone presumed it was in Zambia. John Calvin preached that it lay hidden in Iraq. William Warren, the president of Boston University, took a sabbatical Arctic cruise to confirm its location at the pole. The Garden has been the illusory dream of scientists, kings, writers, and at least one contrarian Southern lawyer. It is a story so compelling they’ve sometimes abandoned gold, tenure,…

The Achilles tendon is one of the largest and strongest tendons in the body, stretching from the bones of the heel to calf muscles. It allows patients to extend their foot and point their toes to the floor known as plantar flexion. Despite its strength, the Achilles tendon is vulnerable to injury. Due to its limited blood supply and the high tensions placed on it, an Achilles rupture is a common injury. When the Achilles tendon is torn or ruptured it can either be partial, or a complete tear.…

Throughout history, one fact has always stood true: only the strongest endure. When faced with danger, some choose to take flight, to turn and to run. Others rise and fight; they adapt, they do not waver and most importantly, they survive. However, the actions one must take in order to ensure survival may raise questions of morality. In regards to the principle of utility, the life of pi, demonstrates a belief that when faced with controversy, it is morally justified to do what one must do in…

Abstracts: This paper is to explain what a biological weapon is and how it affects environment, humans, and the economy. Along with explaining how the disease is spread from person to person, promoting illness. With a little bit of history on biological weapons, and my views on biological weapons. A biological weapon is also known as a germ weapon. This is when bacteria, viruses, fungi, or toxins can be used as a weapon against, animals, plants of humans. The use of infectious agents were used…
