  • Genetic Conditions Affecting Multiple Systems: Von Willebrand Disease and Cystic Fibrosis “Managing Symptoms and Improving Quality of Life for Patients with Cystic Fibrosis: The Role of Science and Medicine”

    I need you to reply to this discussion question and it needs to be 135 words with one cittation.
    Von Willebrand Disease has three factor levels; however, the disease itself affects and involves the blood and circulatory system, the stomach and GI Tract, uterus, & skin. 
    The VWF is a factor that helps platelets stick together to form clots, and when those levels are low it will cause different levels of vascular abnormalities which in turn affects the body. 
    Symptoms of VWD can resemble hemophilia because of the difficulty in clotting. 
    Anemia, and easy bruising are the most common symptoms. 
    Some other symptoms include joint stiffness & inflammation, fatigue, heavy menses, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath.
    In rare circumstances, VWD can be acquired through heart disease, blood transfusions, some types of cancer, and even certain medications; however, it is usually an inherited disease.
    VWD is not something that can be “cured”, but it can be treated with different types of clotting medication, depending on your severity.
    DDAVP is used for minor surgeries, and dental procedures. Typically it’s administered as a nasal spray immediately before procedures.
    Another treatment for VWD is VWD Factor Concentrates, and which is considered a “replacement therapy”, and that is used for Factor II, and Factor III levels of VWD.
    With proper management, people living with VWD can expect to live a normal life span.
    I have been living with VWD II my entire life, having been diagnosed at the age of 33. 
    This is a disease that is very close to my heart, literally.
    Science studies natural law, and God created life, & the world.  It is because of that that the Bible and Science work together
    I also need you to reply to this dicussion question 135 words and one citation
    An inherited genetic condition known as cystic fibrosis (CF) mostly affects the respiratory system, but it also affects the digestive, reproductive, and other systems of the body. “People with cystic fibrosis have a defective protein that affects the body’s cells, tissues, and the glands that make mucus and sweat,” the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) recommends. Normally slick, mucus shields the linings of the digestive system, airways, and other organs and tissues. Individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) produce viscous mucus that can accumulate and cause infections, blockages, or damage to the organs involved.” Department of Health and Human Services, United States, 2022). Stephanie Davis, James Chmiel, and Margaret Rosenfeld (2020) state that “research relates CF in a newborn to congenital airway abnormalities of the trachea, increased acidity of the airway surface liquid that results in inhibition of the function of antibacterial peptide failure of mucus to detach from submucosal gland ducts and increase in airway mucins and mucin flakes.” “The exact processes linking the basic gene defect in CF via abnormalities in CFTR (cystic fibrosis membrane-based conductance regulator) production, trafficking, and function to actual organ damage is unclear.” (2017, page 62). In the US, there are about 10 million CF carriers, however some people may have the gene mutation without realizing they have the illness. For a person to get cystic fibrosis, they must inherit the mutation in the CFTR gene from both parents. Early infancy is typically when diagnoses are made since newborn tests look for CF. (Health and Human Services Department of the United States, 2022). While symptoms are typically apparent, some individuals may have none at all or very few, while others may experience life-threatening or fatal complications. Everybody is affected with CF differently, and symptoms might vary. Because cystic fibrosis (CF) frequently affects the respiratory system, patients may develop thick, sticky mucus accumulation, sinus infections, or bacterial infections in the lungs, which can result in wheezing and a cough that contains blood or mucus. Additionally, gastrointestinal symptoms such as severe stomach discomfort, persistent diarrhea, or constipation, as well as clogged biliary ducts in the liver and obstructed pancreatic ducts, are frequently experienced by patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). (Health and Human Services Department of the United States, 2022). According to our textbook, individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) are unable to produce the pancreatic enzymes required for regular fat and nutrient digestion and absorption. (Ch. 11 of Starr & McMillan, 2017). A thick lump of mucus that obstructs a female’s uterus or delayed puberty in males due to the absence of tiny ducts are two more ways that cystic fibrosis (CF) affects the reproductive system. Regretfully, CF currently has no known treatment. Bronchodilators, which relax and open airways, antibiotics, which cure or prevent lung infections, anti-inflammatory drugs, CFTR modulators, which enhance the function of the defective CFTR protein, and mucus thinners, which clear mucus from airways, are all part of the condition’s management. If CF results in lung/liver illness or respiratory failure, a lung or liver transplant may be required (The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2022). Thank goodness, science empowers humans to engage in God’s redemptive mission when used for good intentions. Science can be used to help and heal God’s creation by finding and developing new medications, therapies, and cures. Even CF sufferers now receive better care, which has allowed them to live lives that are healthier and longer in our fallen world.

  • Exploring Motion in Daily Life: A Personal Reflection

    INTRODUCTION
    This is the first “Report” that I’m asking you to write. We are doing these instead of exams because I think they are a more useful, flexible, and interesting evaluation in this conceptual class. Do not procrastinate too much on this assignment please!
    The report should be approximately 2-3 pages in length and should be double spaced. I’m not picky about font/formatting, I’m just trying to give you an idea of how much content there should be. I am not grading based on spelling or grammar either.
    PROMPT
    The first section of this class has covered all sorts of motion. In addition we have talked about energy and momentum (both relating to motion). Finally we covered rotational/circular motion. Pick some piece of motion that interests you that you see in your personal life. This assignment will have several parts:
    You will describe the motion scenario in detail.What are you observing? What pieces are there? How are they moving relative to each other? Are they moving with constant velocity or accelerating?Most importantly, why did you pick this topic? How does it relate to your daily life? Where do you see it happen? Why is it something that came to mind?
    Again, it is important that you include in your description the reason why you have picked this topic. In what ways does it affect your daily life? Where, why, and how do you experience it?
    Some examples of scenarios to help you pick something:Your favorite sports to watch/participate in.
    When driving home you see a car swerve to avoid an accident.
    You go hiking up and over a hill.
    You have pets that sometimes do something fun or interesting.
    You have literally any hobby:Saw blades when woodworking (or worse, kickback from a table saw).
    Birds flight when watching them.
    Knitting to make a sweater.
    etc
    You will describe the forces at play in the motion event. Describe what objects are applying forces to each other and in what manners.For example, my favorite sport is rock climbing. If you go climbing you exert forces down on the the holds such that their normal force helps push you up along the wall.
    You will describe where energy is and how it moves/transitions during the event.If I talk about a climber making a dynamic move to another hold, I would describe, in detail, how the climber turns some chemical energy in their body in to elastic potential energy in their muscles, which they then turn in to kinetic energy so they can swing themselves up to the hold.
    You will describe what parts have momentum and how momentum is transferred (forces) during the event.Continuing with the climbing example I would mention that the smallest system would be one of the climber and wall, which is attached to the Earth. The climber pushes down on the wall (extended to the Earth) and the wall pushes up on the climber to propel them upward. This is like the reverse of a collision where momentum is conserved, the person and wall (+Earth) recoil off of each other in opposite directions.
    That’s it. It will probably be around 2-ish pages (double spaced) in length. Each of those above sections should be 1-2 large paragraphs. If you find that your essay is coming up very short, consider if there aren’t any extra moving pieces that you could describe the motion/forces/energy/momentum of.
    Let me know if you have any questions!
    Please no AI, the book report is being checked for it

    Post 1-
    The topic of HIV testing and treatment for
    those incarcerated in a prison or jail is a topic fraught with controversy and
    strong opinions. To begin, it is important to highlight what is known to be
    true regarding this population and topic. As the textbook discusses, the prison
    population is at a higher risk of contracting HIV than the general public
    (Gideon & Sung, 2010; Parsons & Cox, 2020). As such, it is important to
    continue to measure HIV infection rates in the prison population. This can be
    done through HIV testing both during admission and just prior to release. The
    purpose of this would not be to amend treatment to those who are HIV positive
    such that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) would be violated or in
    question. Rather, the purpose of this testing is twofold: First, to gather
    valuable data on the rate of infection within each prison environment, and
    second, to ensure that those who do test positive for HIV receive the
    appropriate treatment during their time incarcerated. 
    The topic of segregating those with HIV is
    equally fraught with contention. Many may support this practice on fear alone,
    that those who are currently HIV negative, including staff, may be at an
    increased risk for contracting HIV if segregation is not utilized. Research
    seems to indicate that this practice is not necessary to effectively prevent
    the spread of HIV, and may in fact be unduly harmful to the inmate (Gideon
    & Sung, 2010; Kilty, 2020). The National Commission on AIDS, the National
    Commission on Correctional Health Care, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons have
    all denounced segregation as an effective or necessary approach to public health
    (Gideon & Sung, 2010). Although no U.S. Supreme Court case has been handed
    down specifically clarifying the issue, and therefore it may be argued that no
    inmate rights would be violated during segregation, it is clear that the
    inmates who are segregated are frequently denied access to educational or
    religious programs that others in the general population of the prison have
    access to (Gideon & Sung, 2010). 
    My
    approach to HIV prevention and detection, beyond the testing already discussed,
    would be through the implementation of a harm reduction needle exchange program
    and through the promotion/availability of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)
    treatments to those at high risk for contraction of HIV (Parsons & Cox,
    2020). This sort of treatment has been supported through research conducted on
    the population of men who have sex with men (MSM) and, more recently in Parsons
    and Cox’s (2020) work, in the prison drug user population, with promising
    results
    Post 2-
    As an
    administrator of a jail, I would suggest making HIV testing inside the prison
    system mandatory for all inmates upon their arrival. This strategy would
    guarantee the early identification of HIV/AIDS cases, enabling prompt treatment
    commencement and the implementation of preventive measures to lessen the likelihood
    of transmission among inmates. In 2020, Hotton et al.
    Since
    the jail population frequently comes from marginalized communities where HIV
    and other STDs are more common, mandatory testing upon entry is essential.
    Early detection of HIV infection allows for the provision of the required
    medical attention and assistance to inmates, as well as the deployment of
    suitable infection control measures to safeguard the general prison
    population’s health and well-being. 
    Moreover,
    not only at admission but also at frequent intervals during the prison term, I
    would advise HIV testing. Regular testing can assist in detecting any new
    illnesses that might arise while the person is in detention, guaranteeing
    ongoing disease care and surveillance (Ong et al., 2018). Furthermore, all
    offenders should have access to HIV testing before being released from prison,
    as this transitional period is a crucial one during which people may be more
    vulnerable to catching or spreading the virus (Cohen et al., 2013).
    In
    regards to the general policy of segregation for offenders who test positive
    for HIV/AIDS, I would not advise it. Even while this kind of behavior may have
    been more widespread in the past, it is now generally acknowledged to be
    against the rights of the offender and to be a source of additional stigma and
    prejudice (Haimowitz, 1989). As an alternative, the emphasis should be on
    offering complete medical care and support services to HIV-positive inmates who
    are part of the general prison population. Additionally, it is essential to
    make sure that infection control and universal precautions are in place to
    safeguard both staff and inmates (Haimowitz, 1989). 
    In
    conclusion, I would advise the prison system to require HIV testing at the time
    of admission, conduct testing on a regular basis while incarcerated, and do
    testing before release. Since it violates their rights and may worsen the
    social stigma attached to the illness, segregation of HIV/AIDS positive
    criminals must to be avoided. These steps can help manage HIV within the prison
    system and improve the general health and well-being of the jailed population
    when paired with the proper medical care and support services (Frieden et al.,
    2005).

  • “The Impact of Flashbulb Memories and Inaccurate Memories on Remembering a Recent School Shooting” I vividly remember where I was when I heard about the most recent school shooting in the USA. I was sitting in my living room, scrolling

    One of the most interesting and important types of memory we learned about in chapter 8 is the Flashbulb memory. The example that the authors use is the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade center. Think about a more recent current event like the most recent school shooting that has happened in the USA.  Do you remember where you were when you heard about this event? Who were you with and what were you doing? What did you talk about? After jotting down a few notes, contact someone who was with you when you learn about the school shooting and ask them what they remember from that day. Are your memories identical or different? Are the differences important details or not? Write about what you learned about inaccurate and false memories from this experience and the chapter 8 section on Flashbulb memories and Inaccurate and False Memories.
