Using internet and other resources, research a current theory of causes of SIDS

To what extent is there a single "cause" of SIDS? Alternatively, consider the proposition that SIDS is merely a term of convenience used by pathologists when they are unable to determine the cause and that the term "unascertained" is a preferable, and more honest, approach.

Write a discussion post of at least 150 words based on the following prompt (answer both questions):

• Think of an activity you did today. Using what you learned in this module, describe at least five different parts of your brain and how they were involved in that activity.
• If you were a psychologist or neuroscientist interested in learning more about one of those brain parts, what methods could you use to determine more about the brain? (Consider types of studies you could create, experiments you could design, brain-imaging techniques, and other methods described in your reading)

Jeff is a 57-year-old male with a long history of type 1 diabetes. He takes insulin to manage his diabetes, but has been having trouble maintaining steady blood glucose levels over the last two weeks. Jeff suffered a week-long case of influenza last month, but is otherwise healthy. This morning, he began vomiting upon waking. This was followed by extreme abdominal pain and extreme thirst. He called his endocrinologist, who told him that he needs to seek emergency care.

1. Given Jeff’s history of type 1 diabetes, which of the following conditions is he most likely experiencing?

2. Diabetic ketoacidosis is a type of respiratory acidosis.

True

False

3. If Jeff has diabetic ketoacidosis, which of the following symptoms may he also be experiencing?

4. Briefly explain why Jeff has a feeling of extreme thirst.

Cat Circulatory System

1. Organize the epidemiology of the patella to support weight and knee exercise in lower limb joint exercise.

2. Explain the reason why the cross-sectional area in the shape of the two bones of the forearm is not constant in the longitudinal direction in terms of ease of rotation.

3. Explain the cause of the formation of Trebeculae in bone, the aspect of direction, and the cause of direction.

The body goes through absorptive and postabsorptive states throughout the course of 24 hours, as illustrated in Figure 25-11 in your textbook. The nutrient pools (glucose, amino acid, and fatty acid) illustrated in Figure 25-1 vary in size during these states as the body absorbs these nutrients from food, uses them for energy production, puts them into or releases them from storage, or builds/breaks down body structure.The body has multiple hormonally-driven mechanisms by which to maintain a relatively constant glucose pool in order to ensure that adequate glucose is always available for the brain.  Neurons rely almost exclusively on glucose and cannot use fatty acids or amino acids as an alternate source.

The mass balance equation can be applied to the glucose pool.  Recall that the equation states that in order to maintain balance of a particular substance, the intake of that substance + its metabolic production must equal excretion of that substance + metabolic removal of that substance.

Intake + metabolic production = Excretion + metabolic removal

1. Your first task is to apply the mass balance equation to the maintenance of the glucose pool during the absorptive and postabsorptive states.  

For each state, you need to explain how each of the parts of the equation contribute to increases/decreases in the glucose pool, and the internal mechanisms that are employed to counteract those changes to restore balance. As part of your explanation, you need to include the specific organs/tissues, hormones, and metabolic processes that are involved.  For each hormone, include what leads to its release, cell types it targets, and what it stimulates the targets to do.

2. Your second task is to apply the mass balance equation to the regulation of blood glucose, or lack thereof, in someone who suffers from diabetes mellitus.   Describe what part(s) of the equation are not functioning properly.  Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus is associated with a number of classic symptoms:  excessive hunger and thirst, weight loss, and excessive urination.  Explain these symptoms by applying the mass balance equation, absorptive vs. postabsorptive states, and nutrient pools.

Read the coding guideline B3.2a. Multiple procedures. Apply the guideline to the following case and answer the questions. What is the root operation? Is there one procedure code or multiple procedure codes? Do all the codes have the same root operation or different? Do a research on what are condylomas? Which body system do they affect? What is the approach used in this procedure(s)? Provide the procedure code(s).

B3.2a- During the same operative episode, multiple procedures are coded if: a. The same root operation is performed on different body parts as defined by distinct values of the body part character. Examples: Diagnostic excision of liver and pancreas are coded separately.

Question:

The patient has condylomas of the cervix, vag-ina and vulva. Laser speculum was inserted via the vag-ina and using Xener on 20-watt setting the laser was used to obliterate the condyloma in both vag-ina and cervix. The laser speculum was then removed. The laser was then used to obliterate the third condyloma in the vulva area.

This is a multi-tier question, please read carefully and answer all parts.

Mr. L. works with pesticides and is accidentally exposed to a nicotinic agonist.

1. Focusing on motor output only, on which cell types would the nicotinic agonist work?
2. What effect would it have on somatic motor output? Why?
3. Where would it act to affect ANS motor output?  
4. Which division(s) would be affected? Explain your answer.
5. Describe a treatment that could be given to counteract the effect of the pesticide and justify your treatment by indicating how it would improve function.

1. A paper edge slices your left index finger and you immediately move your hand away but it takes a few moments before you are “aware” of the pain. Then, by lightly rubbing the area, the pain disappears.

A. Name and diagram the reflex pathwaythat allowed you to remove your hand.

B. Why was the “feeling of pain” delayed? Where would this information ultimately have been interpreted? Name the fiber type associated with the primary afferent involved, and name the somatosensensory pathway it would have taken to get to the ultimate processing area.

C. Explain why light rubbing removed the pain sensation.
