loop-diuretic that is indicated for use when treating Hypertension, Hyperkalemia, and edema that is from kidney failure, congestive heart failure, or liver cirrhosis. MOA: Its mechanism of action is to interfere with the chloride-binding cotransport system and inhibits the reabsorption of chloride and sodium ions at the distal and proximal tubules, and the loop of Henle. This leads to the pharmocological effects of enhancing the excretion of multiple ions, including, potassium, chloride,…
try and fight their own death from starvation they jump from rat to rat biting them, trying to survive. The blockage prohibits the rat from becoming able to swallow the blood. The fleas in turn vomit the blood along with the bacteria, which ends up in the rat’s blood stream. The rats then either bite humans or, fleas find humans to be their new hosts; that is what created this endemic that killed so many people (Man and…
(environmental), metallurgy, biological systems, industry medicine. Coordination compounds has many applications in qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis. For the detection and estimation by classical and instrumental methods of analysis, the basis are provided by the common colour reactions given by metal ions. •Examples of such reagents include EDTA, DMG (dimethylglyoxime), α–nitroso–β–naphthol, cupron . Coordination compounds in biological systems and biochemistry…
have uncontrolled hypertension (High Blood Pressure Fact Sheet), increases the level of services, treatments, and procedures provided and places a large financial burden on the healthcare system. The clinical grade wearable has the potential to lessen the severity of the diagnosis. Patients may be more compliant with a treatment plan that includes monitoring if they can wear the small, noninvasive device in lieu of taking time out to manually check their blood pressure on a regular basis. The…
though much progress has been made African Americans are still placed in a racial caste which is known as a stigmatized racial group locked into…
lower-class women, are somewhat a mixture of all these classifications, so they wear stripes. The main color, which subjugates women, is the color red. “Everything except the wings around my face is red: the color of blood, which defines us” (8). In the “Republic of Gilead,” red symbolizes the blood of the menstrual cycle, but mainly fertility. Not only does each color helps decipher which commodity a specific woman facilitates, but is also illustrates sexual repression. Throughout the entire…
of people living that either have cancer or have had cancer. According to the American cancer society, “About one-half of all men and one-third of all women in the US will develop cancer during their lifetimes.” Both animals and humans can get cancer; it is not just humans. People have been able to do their research of cancer on mummies and fossilized bones. Cancer was first discovered in Egypt…
retarded growth have been documented. Research was done using rats with exposure to toluene to investigate the validity of birth defects. Three groups of rats were exposed to the same level of toluene during mating, gestation, and both. Researchers observed weight reductions in the fetuses that were exposed during the pregnancies. In both mating and gestational groups, skeletal soft tissue deformations were observed (Bowen 2006). The Love Canal tragedy was disturbing and sad. People will…
Cancer Medicine (Oncology) Cancer cells arise from different normal cells, thus when the normal cells become abnormal, it allows the cancer cells to grow out of control. Cancers can start almost anywhere in the human body, it can occur in any tissue and at any time of life, but mostly, elders have the highest risk. Cancers are called neoplasm because neoplasm is new growths that arise from normal tissue. Furthermore, there are two different characteristics of neoplasm: benign and…
although it is still undetermined whether this new stem cell and embryonic stem cells are critically different. Human induced pluripotent stem cells were developed a year later in 2007. Scientists are optimistic about these stem cells and they are now being used within drug development and there is a possibility these will be used in transplantation medicine. A hematopoietic stem cell is a blood-forming cell within bone marrow. This type of stem cell is unable to differentiate into cells of…
