Ventricular system

The cardiomyocytes’ limited capability to divide leads to the replacement of dead cells by proliferating fibroblast that migrate into the damaged area to form scar tissue (fibrosis). The fibrotic scar tissue results in the development of a thin ventricular wall, which no longer possesses proper contraction ability and initiates a series of events that trigger remodeling, hypertrophy, and ultimately heart failure and further cell death (16). Stem and progenitor cells possess the potential to…

identification of a boundary-maintaining entity or process” (p.7). A number of systems were noted and intertwined within the movie. Within each system, a different side of the individual was portrayed. Systems theory “describes human behavior in terms of complex systems. It is premised on the idea that an effective system is based on individual needs, rewards, expectations, and attributes of the people living in the system. According to this theory, families, couples, and organization members…

the drug remains after metabolism through oral ingestion. (National Center) b. Therapeutic window (efficacy vs. toxicity) - Toxicity can be common if dosing and pharmacokinetic are not monitored carefully. Can cause toxicity in the Central Nervous System. (Yuko Ikeda,…

with a holistic approach in order gain an all-inclusive perspective. Specifically, the following factors will be addressed in the assessment: biological, neurobiological, psychological, social, and the developmental aspects of Emma. Further, the systems theory and the ecological perspective will be employed as methods of explaining presenting issues of the case. Presenting Problems As noted in the case study, Emma was referred to the Family Services Agency by her pediatrician for further…

questions, and explore the complex systems. Archetypes are not used to dictate behavior but to leverage them. Learning to see structures within which we operate begins a process of freeing ourselves from previously unseen forces and ultimately mastering the ability to work with them and change them (Senge, 2006). Systems archetypes or generic structures embody the key to learning to see structures in our personal and organizational lives (Senge, 2006). The systems archetypes reveal an…

Relational Systems Relational systems are the relationships formed between workmates in an organization when they coordinate their tasks, goals, and missions. Moreover, they pertain to the human system, as they are composed of individuals moving towards or away from one other. In fact, they tend to form patterns while interacting or drifting from each other (Kahn, Barton, & Fellows, 2013). Relational systems are also a way through which objectives in an organization are accomplished. Furthermore…

Two frameworks that guide the theory, for the case are systems and medical model. In the systems framework the theory chosen to guide the intervention was the family systems theory. For the medical model the theory that best suits the clients problem is pharmapsychology. Systems framework is a series of related assumptions and postulates about all levels of systems (Turner, 1996). The framework is relevant in that it explains the clients current behavior is a result of a series of outside…

neuropsychological basis of such disorders. We believe that establishing a model system would provide us with an opportunity to study the disorder in much depth including any cognitive deficits. Next, we subjected our validated rat model to a pharmacological intervention using oxytocin, which is the currently under phase II clinical trials, in order to check for the therapeutic alleviation of the attentional deficits. Ventricular infusion of oxytocin in Shank-3 deficient rats showed significant…

The brain "is the organ that controls our behavior" (Gage, 2004). The way the brain functions is thru "neurons that connect many cells at once and release neurotransmitters to a network of other neurons"(Gage, 2004). The constant transmission of information creates memories and thoughts. The brain has the process to reconstruct itself by a process called neurological plasticity which allows new cells production in the brain consequently creating a learning mechanism. Although there are several…
