A mother brings her three-year-old son into the emergency room of a local hospital. The boy is crying hysterically. The mother says that earlier that day the boy was playing in the back yard with his older sisters. He had gone over to pick a rose off of a rosebush when he suddenly started screaming and crying. There is a region of swelling and redness on his arm and the doctor who examines him says that it looks like the boy was stung by a bee. On physical examination, he is afebrile, with a heart rate of 102 bpm, blood pressure of 90/62 mm Hg, and respiratory rate of 24 breaths per minute and has difficulty breathing. The doctor says that the boy appears to be having a severe allergic reaction to the sting, and he treats him with SC Epinephrine. The mother asks why her son’s arm is swollen and the Dr. says it is because of fluid accumulation.

1. Describe the process of inflammation that might have led to swelling? 2. Enumerate the mediators of pain, edema, and redness? 3. Describe the vascular and cellular changes during inflammation? 4. Mention the type of shock the child is presented with and Why epinephrine is an ideal choice in this setting and elaborate its mechanism of action? 5. Plot the Drug response curve (DRC) of Epinephrine (Agonist) with and without the presence of Beta-blocker (antagonist). 6. What type of hypersensitivity reaction is seen in this child? This type of hypersensitivity reaction is due to the crosslinking of which immunoglobulin on mast cell surfaces? 7. Which cytokines promote class switching of B lymphocytes to IgE?

Are customers more loyal in the East or in the West? The following table is based on information from a recent study. The columns represent length of customer loyalty (in years) at a primary supermarket. The rows represent regions of the United States.

What is the probability that a customer chosen at random has the following characteristics? (Enter your answers as fractions.)

(a) has been loyal 10 to 14 years


(b) has been loyal 10 to 14 years, given that he or she is from the East


(c) has been loyal at least 10 years


(d) has been loyal at least 10 years, given that he or she is from the West


(e) is from the West, given that he or she has been loyal less than 1 year


(f) is from the South, given that he or she has been loyal less than 1 year


(g) has been loyal 1 or more years, given that he or she is from the East


(h) has been loyal 1 or more years, given that he or she is from the West


(i) Are the events "from the East" and "loyal 15 or more years" independent? Explain.

No. These events cannot occur together.No. P(loyal 15 or more years) ≠ P(loyal 15 or more years | East).    Yes. These events can occur together.Yes. P(loyal 15 or more years) = P(loyal 15 or more years | East).

Based on data from a statistical abstract, only about 20% of senior citizens (65 years old or older) get the flu each year. However, about 28% of the people under 65 years old get the flu each year. In the general population, there are 12% senior citizens (65 years old or older). (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

(a) What is the probability that a person selected at random from the general population is senior citizen who will get the flu this season?


(b) What is the probability that a person selected at random from the general population is a person under age 65 who will get the flu this year?


(c) Repeat parts (a) and (b) for a community that has 93% senior citizens.

(d) Repeat parts (a) and (b) for a community that has 48% senior citizens.

Pick an industry that you either work in, or have an interest in.(HEALTH INSURANCE QUALITY AUDIT)

Assume you have received an RFP (Request for Proposal) for the purchase of a large piece of equipment normally associated with that industry and for internal use.

Proposal Writing Guidelines
A proposal should contain the parts outlined below. Your proposal will not be a formal study in proposals but rather an exercise in the writing process.

Introduction

"Project Summary" or "abstract" - a paragraph covering the basic information contained in the Body.

Project Proposal (Body)
Includes Statement of the Problem (what & why), Proposed Solution(s) (how), Program of Implementation (where and when).

Conclusions/Recommendations
How you are going to solve/handle what is proposed in the Body.

Bibliography and/or Works Cited
This will be on a separate page from the main proposal.

Qualifications (of writer(s) and/or project implementers

Budget
Itemization of expenses in the implementation and operation of the proposed plan, and detail of materials, facilities, equipment, and personnel.

Final document should be single-spaced (or Word default of 1.15), designed for an assumed letterhead, and 1" margins ONLY (be sure you check!). All other formatting should be "Normal.

The purpose of this study was to identify the performance variables
i.e. scoring, assists, and fouls that significantly contributed to
determine a NBA player’s salary. It was hypothesized that scoring
performance variables such as points per game; field goal, free throw,
and three point percentage would be significant contributors to player
salaries.

Medical Terminology

Article Review Assignment

The article review is an article that pertains to healthcare. The content of the article is described

in more detail later in this page. However, in general there should be about a one page summary

of the article and a one page commentary. The summary is a brief abstract or review of what the

article was about.

This should not include personal pronouns, just information about the

article. Points will be deducted for poorly written summaries. The commentary should be

about your personal experience, your field of study, or how the content will affect your

decisions

. There will be an Assignment tab opened (formerly called Dropbox) in which you can

submit the review.

Article 1:

Medical information, medical errors, documentation, or miscommunication

–

This article should be about documentation in healthcare or how medical information is

important. Current trends in research has uncovered the prevalence in medical errors that lead to

patient injury or death.

Article 2: Financial aspects in healthcare –

This article should be in regards to financial issues

in healthcare. This could include financial burdens on the healthcare system, data about

insurance systems, or ideas on future healthcare financial plans.

Assignment 10.1: Milestone 5: Leadership across Cultures Assignment Task:
This assignment will assess competency 7. Propose a Human Resource Management strategy and specific organizational behaviors that are best suited for global business organizations. Directions The due diligence analyses on the three countries chosen in Week 01 will wrap up in this assignment with the exploration of management decision making processes. For each of your countries, you will discuss the benefits bringing the diversity of the workforce will have for your company. You will compare and contrast the various aspects of U.S. human resource management against those of your chosen countries. You will examine what motivates the local workforce and the style of leadership which is prevalent in your countries. You will contrast those against what our U.S. company would utilize. A minimum of two pages per country is required and you will follow APA (6th edition) formatting (no abstract is required for this milestone) with title and reference pages, indented paragraphs and a minimum of four APA formatted references and associated in-text citations. This information, and that of the following weeks, will become part of your final project artifact

A file filter reads an input file, transforms it in some way, and writes the results to an output file. Write an abstract file filter class that defines a pure virtual function for transforming a character. Create one subclass of your file filter class that performs encryption, another that transforms a file to all uppercase, and another that creates an unchanged copy of the original file.

The class should have a member function

void doFilter(ifstream &in, ofstream &out)

that is called to perform the actual filtering. The member function for transforming a single character should have the prototype

char transform(char ch)

The encryption class should have a constructor that takes an integer as an argument and uses it as the encryption key.

Be sure to include comments throughout your code where appropriate.

Complete the C++ code using Visual Studio or Xcode, compress (zip) and upload the entire project folder to the Blackboard assignment area by clicking on the Browse My Computer button or by dragging the file inside the Attach Files box.

This assignment is worth 20 points and will be evaluated using the CIS 221 Assignment Rubric, which is available from the assignment submission area, as well as in the course Grade Center.
