The Three Greatest Advances in Health Care Science Modern, effective healthcare practices have come about because of decades of scientific advances and innovations shown in clinical trials and other studies to prevent, cure, or alleviate human disease (House of Lords, 2009). The advances have provided nations with access to new or improved therapeutic and diagnostic methods that have the potential to reduce morbidity and mortality thereby improving the quality of life far beyond what was…

of users worldwide, but college students spend more time on snapchat than they actually study. When classes start, we are not used to the rhythm of school, and it takes a while to adjust. Maybe on the second or third of school, we get a homework load that looks overwhelming. Snapchat is a distraction that prohibits productivity and hinders personal time management. I personally have experience this, and instead of studying I go on snapchat to check out my friend’s stories. I say to myself,…

Nanospheres of gold and organic suppress the development of skin cancer - scientists MOSCOW, July 2 - RIA Novosti. US bioengineers were able to successfully suppress the growth of skin cancer cells using microspheres of gold nanoparticles and spherical molecules of RNA, and published their findings in an article in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. "Now we can start a fight with a host of diseases. Thanks to the project "Human Genome" and all work in this area over…

HIV continues to be a problem throughout the years despite the advances of modern medicine. Scientists believed that “the virus came from a specie of chimpanzees found in Africa, which passed on the virus to humans when they were hunted for food” (AIDS.gov, 2016). This epidemic has claimed the lives of many all over the world. While presently there exists no cure, there are medications that treats this disease. A healthy lifestyle combined with treatment can prolong the lives of people living…

Bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that exclusively infect and replicate within bacterial cells. Phages are ubiquitous, with an estimated 1x106 particles per drop of seawater and as many as 1x108 particles per g of soil. Phage predation destroys an estimated one-half of the bacterial population worldwide every 48 h, hence regulating the population dynamics of natural bacteria (Deresinski 2008). Bacteriophages attach to their host cell by specialized structures called tail fibers, inject their…

There are many challenges associated with disclosing one’s positive HIV/AIDS status to a sexual partner. This is due to cultural reasons such as fear of rejection; including partner abandonment and lack of community support. Nonetheless, what does this mean in terms of possible safe sex practices with individuals who choose not to disclose their positive status after unprotected sex with their partners? Although there are federal laws that protect the confidentiality of HIV-related information.…

As we all know a virus cant be treated with an antibiotic. Usually a virus goes away by itself. However,its one virus that your body cant fight off with out assistance. HIV is a virus that cant be cured. The virus is deadly and highly contagious. Moreover, its can be treated but not cured. If not treated right away it can lead to AIDS. AIDS is also, a terminal disease. What is HIV? HIV stands for human immunodefiency virus. Immune stands for (immune). In addition, deficiency stands for…

usually imported from other countries. In every large ship there is a ballast which is similar to a tank filled with water. The ballast main purpose is to ensure the safety and stability mandated to operate a ship. During the vessels voyage they will load and unload water at many…

attaching to the CD4 receptors the glycoproteins spikes also attach to chemokine coreceptors on the T helper cell surface, most commonly this coreceptor is CCR5. This process is known as attachment. After attachment the viral and host membrane fuse, a process known as fusion, and then the viral contents are emptied into the host cell, a process known as entry. After entry the HIV virus transcribes its RNA into DNA and integrates its DNA into the host cells chromosome. From this point the virus…

mostly relegated to New Age "hocus pocus", and some pretty-smelling little bottles of liquid. However, in recent years scientific researchers have compiled HUGE amounts of data regarding the effectiveness of essential oils in combating bacterial and viral infections. The oils protect us from infection in a number of ways, and it 's very simple to use essential oils at home for their protective effects. Lets look at how to use essential oils for this purpose, and which oils to choose for best…
