Article Review: Your cells are my cells ---- Cell transfer during pregnancy
Introduction
The author‘s intention seems to be a desire of revealing information from research studies regarding how cells in the human body are transferred between mother and fetus. Scientists are now becoming aware that cells do mutate and continue reproducing themselves long after they were expected to die. Traditional scientific discoveries revealed that cells are transferred from mother to fetus indicative of a one way flow of traffic. However, it was discerned to be a two way stream whereby cells from male infants are transferred to their ...

Infection in cancer patient with febrile neutropenia: epidemiology, microbiology and management

Abstract
Febrile neutropenia (FN) is characterised by a decrease in neutrophils number to values below 500 cells/ mm3 and an occurrence of fever higher or similar to 38.3ºC. It commonly occurs in cancer patients as a result of chemotherapy regimens. Chemotherapy destroys carcinogenic cells but also attacks in many cases some normal cells including essential elements of the immune system. Fever is one of the characteristic symptoms of FN and is usually associated with the presence of an infection caused by various microorganisms. Bacteria, including Gram-positive isolates (currently dominating) and Gram-negative species (dominant in the 1970s), are usually ...

Genetic studies for identifying genes involved in lysosome biogenesis led to the identification of a gene encoding a novel protein of approximately 80 kDa. An antibody was raised in rabbits to investigate the subcellular localisation of the protein using both immunofluorescence microscopy and immunogold electron microscopy. Mouse monoclonal antibodies to a known lysosomallumenal protein, hydrolase , were used as controls in these experiments. The results ...

Joelving, Frederik. “Hospitals hype robot surgery for women: Study.” The American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology. (2012). Accessed October 29, 2012. http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/07/20/us-hospitals-hype-robot-surgery-idUSBRE86J0UQ20120720
This resource highlights robotic surgery for women and identifies better outcomes. Basically, the article makes a reference to the better result of robot surgery since the approach offers a surgeon a magnified 3-D view with excellent imaging of extremely small blood vessels. While doctors make long incision in an open surgery which makes patients profusely bleed and take time to heal, robot surgery facilitates faster recovery and reduced blood loss. However, the article notes increased operating time and higher cost ...

The article titled “The biology of cancer testis antigens: Putative function, regulation and therapeutic potential” gives an account of Cancer Testis Antigens (CTA) and their presence in human tumors of distinct histological origin. CTA are reliable for the administration of immunotherapeutic approaches due to their restricted patterns . Several clinical trials have already been conducted for the development of CTA-based vaccination therapies. Researchers were able to discover over 70 families of CTA from 140 individuals worldwide. According to the authors, while it is possible to extract a majority of the CTA during the process of spermatogenesis, the core function of ...

Q1
The independent variable was the color information while the dependent variable was attention attraction. Both variables are of nominal level, i.e. the variation of color information or attraction of attention does not vary upon the change of the color or the person to whom they attract attention.
Q2
The research was subjective, especially in treating RTs (reaction times) above 1500 ms as misses and 300 ms as anticipatory. There is no proper control or a basis upon which the researcher sets this criterion of exclusion. Besides, there is no background check of the participant to analyze if they ...

Despite the relative lack of information on the future implications of stem-cell therapies, research has sped ahead (Daley, et al. 793). As an example of the rapid pace of research, the International Society for Stem Cell Research, arguably the biggest international professional organization involved in stem cell research, has been obliged to update its guidelines three times in ten years (Daley, et al. 787). The purpose of this paper is to present some of the controversies evoked by stem cell research and therapies.
One of the reasons given for the rapid uptake of stem cell therapies is the appeal ...

This article examines issues that can arise as the result of surrogacy. The author states that even though the parents appear on the birth certificate this can be reversed. The challenge of determining who the legal guardian is is challenging. Because of this most surrogacies are gestational. The author states that issues of discrimination can arise when speaking about an infertile parent versus a fertile parent. The ethical issues include this discrimination. It also calls to question if parentage should be reversed legally. Legally this presents many issues.
This article looks at the issues surrounding a patient’s ability to ...

The article at hand discussed the effectiveness and benefits of usage of MR Imaging in the case of Alzheimer Disease. The study took place in a mouse model, however it claims for being equally effective in the treatment of people who suffer from this disease. The main purpose of the study was to determine whether MR targeted to the hippocampus is helpful in identifying and monitoring Alzheimer Disease. It is also aimed at seeking ways to achieve improvement in pathologic brain abnormalities and behavior that can possibly prevent prompt development of disease.
The choice of the method that was ...

The urinary tract is also called the urinary system, consisting of the kidney, ureters, bladder and urethra (Amerman, 2016). The urinary system main function is to preserve homeostasis through water and electrolytes conservation and also excrete toxins from the body (Amerman, 2016). The kidneys filter blood and balance fluids in the body; the ureters are channels through which urine travels to the bladder. Urine is stored in the bladder before it is passed out of the body through the urethra (Amerman, 2016). The urinary system can be attacked by infections causing blockage, damage, and injuries to the tissues impeding ...

Type 2 diabetes is a category under the disease diabetes and before we jump into the discussion, there are a few things worth mentioning in relation to diabetes. This disease can attack anyone it has no specific weaknesses of attack. Research indicates that over 380 million people worldwide are affected by the disease (White et al., 2013). This makes the disease kill more people than both AIDS and breast cancer does in the entire world. With a claim of 1 person in a span of every three minutes in the USA. Diabetes is a metabolic disease where the body ...

Introduction

Irina Tumilovich Rapsi’s article, Possible Risks of eBay of Chelyabinsk Meteorite Fragments, explores the legal aspect of selling the meteorite fragments from the meteorite that fell in Russia’s Chelyabinsk Region in mid- February. The author gives the arguments that have surrounded the controversial issue. It includes different legal views from different professionals who feel that the court as well as the Russian government should determine the sale of the fragments. Among the determining factors is the potential risk to human health due to the possible presence of radioactive elements in the fragments.

Generally, it is known that mothers are responsible for offering life support to the unborn baby. However, there are various things that influence the health of the baby that arise from the father. Most of the effects to the unborn baby that arise from the father are biological. That is from the genetic point of view.
Then again, the article states that men have been receiving advice from doctors which instruct them to avoid smoking and drinking prior to sex because there is a high likelihood of these two aspects lowering the quality of their sperm. The toxins that ...

Schizophrenia can be described as a neurodevelopment disorder. Genetics and surroundings play an important role in development of this disorder. Patients suffering from the decease faced problems in performing the tasks involved memory and mental exercise.
1. Various findings revels that schizophrenia is a disconnection problem. Some findings are as follow;
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) - a study carried out on structural MRI shown uneven distribution of grey material in different regions of brain. The grey material found around 5 to 10 percent less in frontotemporal and basal ganglia-thalamocortical network. A decrease in volume in hippocampus considered as consistent and ...
