an increased risk of health problems occurs with both too high of a BMI as well as too low of a BMI. What is a potential health problem someone may encounter if their BMI is too high? Is it possible for someone to have a high BMI (e.g., obese class I) and not be at risk of health issues? You must find a scientific journal article (either regarding the potential health problems with a high BMI or supporting the potential inaccurate of using BMI to predict health issues) and reference it properly to support your answer.
Find the articles by using one or more of the following:

In the High Desert we are far too familiar with the problems of
drugs. In February 2017 a major Sheriff’s Department operation
precipitated in an arrest warrants for 50 known gang members.
Although Opioids were not the major drug of choice in that raid,
and although death by drug overdose in San Bernardino County is not
as high as in some California counties, it is a major problem here
as well. Discuss some of the reasons for the increase in...

Obesity is a growing public health concern worldwide. Adults
with a high body mass index (BMI)
of 25 or greater are considered overweight or obese. The table
shows the number of adults (in
millions) who are overweight or obese in countries with
different income levels, based on data
from the World Health Organization and the United Nations.

1. Adverse selection may result in both the low risk and the
high risk people in a population being left uninsured. Is this, in
itself, a market failure?
Yes, for the low risk group, but not for the high risk
group.
Yes, for the high risk group, but not for the low risk
group.
No, this is not a market failure on its own--there is no market
failure unless positive exernalities in the use of health care
exist.
No, this...

The current pandemic has increased risk premium for countries
that were already not performing well economically. One very
visible example is Italy. Using the IS-LM model for a small open
economy, show the impact of this increase in risk premium on net
exports and output assuming a fixed exchange rate system.

1.Getting sunburned is dangerous as well as painful. Too much
exposure to high energy electromagnetic (EM) radiation can lead to
cellular DNA damage causing an increased risk for cancer. You know
that DNA damage occurs if the energy of the incident, EM radiation,
is above a certain threshold. What would you predict is worse based
on your knowledge of quantum theory - a weak beam of ultraviolet
light, or an intense beam of infrared light? Explain your
reasoning.

The PACE project at the University of Wisconsin in Madison deals
with problems associated with high-risk drinking on college
campuses. Based on random samples, the study states that the
percentage of UW students who reported bingeing at least three
times within the past two weeks was 42.2% in 1999 (n = 334) and
21.2% in 2009 (n = 843). Test that the proportion of students
reporting bingeing in 1999 is different from the proportion of
students reporting bingeing in 2009...

EPIDEMIOLOGY QUESTIONS
1.) Scenario: Substance A has an associated increased
health risk of 20% and the increased risk associated with substance
B is 15%. When studied together, the increased risk associated with
being exposed to both substance A in conjunction with substance B
is 70%.
Question: Is the health risk associated with
this combination of substances synergistic? (i.e., Does it
demonstrate synergy?)
2.) In at least 10-12 sentences, please explain your
answer to the previous question on synergy. Be sure...

For the middle-aged adult, exercise can reduce the risk of
various health problems. Choose two at-risk health issues that
regular physical exercise and activity can help prevent and manage.
Discuss the prevalence of each of these health problems in society
today. Describe measures that you would take as a nurse to assist
clients with health promotion measures to incorporate exercise and
physical activity into their lives. Include the kind of activities
you would recommend, the amount of exercise, and the...
