normal brain parenchyma following radiation therapy, which is usually grouped as adverse radiation effects (AREs) (26-28). The incidence of AREs after SRS is low with a 1-year cumulative incidence of 13%-14% in the literature (29). In a heterogeneous group of SRS-treated cerebral metastases, the incidence of RN ranged between 1.4% and 24% (30-32). The huge variation in the incidence of AREs can be attributed to widely varied SRS protocols. Moreover, the risk of AREs increases with increasing…
In Document A, the graph shows that ages 80-84 has incidence and by 35%. In Documnet A, the graph also shows that ages 85+ went from 0% morality to 23% morality. This evidence shows that the people getting cancer and the people dying from cancer are somewhat high. This shows a trend that incidence and morality are increasing. In conclusion, this graph is evidence that supports the increasing trend of age-specific incidence and morality for all types of cancer. Another trend that is also…
short acting volatile anesthetics and the chemical makeup of volatile anesthetics themselves (Reduque & Verghese, 2012). ED impacts 5.3% of all post-anesthetic patients as a whole, with the highest incidence (12-13%) occurring in children.(Vlajkovic, Gordana, Sindjelic, & Radomir, 2007). The incidence of ED in children is volatile gas dependent, occurring in 2% of cases after receiving halothane and…
the diagnosis. Furthermore, it is believed the incidence of Deep Vein Thrombosis is not a rarity as what common people believed. Additionally, in 2007, Susanna SS Tan et al., in her research group had reported on ‘Early Deep Vein Thrombosis: Incidence in Asian Stroke Patients’. Generally, in their study discussed about the incidences of Deep Vein Thrombosis in Asian population [13]. Thus, based on the results obtained from this study, the incidence of Deep Vein Thrombosis in Asian population is…
A factor contributing to Asthma is an individual’s occupation. The term ‘Occupational asthma’ can be defined when asthma is triggered because of an individual working environment. Typically, there are jobs, which involve being exposed to specific substances known as respiratory sensitizers, which could potentially causes a sickly response. If exposed for a long duration, it could possibly lead from occupational to chronic Asthma. The main examples that could cause occupational asthma is from a…
The quote is “There was no increase in the incidence of brain or other nervous systems.” The source is The National Center Institute. But undoubtedly this can be challenged because even if there are numerous death from cell phones there is not much we can do. In conclusion, cell phones are safe because there is no increase in the incidence of brain or other nervous systems. To be sure cell phones are safe because there is no increase in the incidence of brain or other nervous systems. When…
Introduction This report is an overview of the epidemiology of Tuberculosis rates in the United Kingdom between 2004 and 2013. The report is done with the aim to review the trend of Tuberculosis spread in the UK and its impact on morbidity and mortality records, which remains significant to the UK public health system, with huge socioeconomic concerns. Tuberculosis or TB is an infectious disease affecting mainly the lungs, though it generally affects a number of organs in body (Ivany and Boulton…
study to evaluate recent trends in heart failure incidence and outcomes. The study was a two-stage design. The first part was community surveillance to estimate the incidence rate of Heart failure between 2000 and 2010 in Olmstead County. Patients that were enrolled in the first stage of the study were followed up for outcomes (mortality and hospitalization) in a patient level cohort study. Age-specific, sex-specific and year-specific incidence rates of validated heart failure were…
CANCER 1. Incidence and Factors influencing the cancer Cancer is an abnormal proliferation and uncontrolled growth of cells. If the growth and thus spread of disease is not controlled, can lead to death of the individual. The control of cancer is challenging to the healthcare system in terms of decreasing the incidence and mortality. However, the mortality rate was marginally decreased in United States (Cancer, 2015). There exist numerous cancers reported including lung and bronchi, breast,…
an incident rate? Epidemiology is the study of identifying the risk factors associated with the incidence of disease in a particular population. In short, it is study to understand when and how the diseases occur. The most common activities which epidemiologists would be engaged are on identifying factors associated with diseases and what can protect human and animals from the diseases. The incidence rate is the frequency at which the health event occurs during a period of times.…
