In radiation therapy, bolus is a modality that helps compensate for differences in body contours, stop skin sparring, and to raise dose buildup on the patient’s skin (Washington, p. 171). Bolus is a tissue equivalent material, but there is not just one type of bolus. Superflab is a commercial bolus that most clinical sites use, but other bolus variations are also available for use. There is no study that compares Superflab, neon green Play-Doh, orange Play-Doh, and uncooked rice for providing…

Summary I gain a lot of insight and learning from going through the process of identifying a student, getting to know them, administering a variety of assessments, writing about and interpreting the test results, researching interventions and supports, and making recommendations based on all of the information collected. My two main takeaways are that I had some difficulties with Woodcock Johnson IV assessment and that I significantly changed my mind about the pedagogy of math. I struggled…

4.2 Multiple Regression A regression model was run to predict the wine rating from different features (fixed.acidity, volatile.acidity, citric.acid, residual.sugar, chlorides, free.sulfur.dioxide, total.sulfur.dioxide, density, pH, sulfates, alcohol) of wine in R. According to the initial analysis on the distributions of the features, many of those features are right-skewed and thus require log transformation. Forward Selection Algorithm was used to find the best predictive models for wine…

Studies and information gathered from the population offers a valuable tool for a marketing manager to utilize when one is trying to increase wine sales in an operating establishment. Many studies exist, which concern factors shown to influence dining satisfaction such as the quality of food, the quality of the service, as well as the environment and ambiance. However, nominal research exists, which focuses on the customer’s satisfaction with wine when they are in a restaurant atmosphere, while…

During World War II, terrible, unspeakable, experiments were being performed on prisoners without their knowledge or their consent. These experiments were performed against the prisoners’ will and ignored any and all medical conscience that today’s doctors hold as the standard. Though these experiments are considered one of the darkest times in terms of medical-ethics, these very experiments yielded some valuable information. With this in mind, a topic that has arisen decades after the original…

Researchers in this study analyzed the two most common treatments for deformational plagiocephaly (DP) to determine if there was significant difference in the outcomes of patients using each treatment. Both active repositioning and cranial remolding are widely believed to be similar in efficacy and…
