Article Review: The Causes of Cerebral Desaturation in

Article Review: The Causes of Cerebral Desaturation in
The study by Brinkman, Amadeo, Funk, and Grocott (2013) investigated cerebral desaturation, which frequently occurs in one-lung ventilation procedures for thoracic surgery and is possibly caused by lower cardiac output. The aim of the study was to explore the correlation between decreases in cerebral oxygen saturation that occurs in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation and decreased cardiac output. Although cerebral oxygen saturation was lowered in all of the participants, the researchers did not have statistically significant data that could be used to establish a correlation between cerebral desaturation and cardiac output, so ...

Introduction

The United States experienced numerous cases of suicide deaths associated with some factors. In 2009, the federal government allowed users and distributors of medical marijuana to distribute the drug to health care centers, leading to an increase in the number of registered distributors. Consequently, recreational users found a new method of obtaining the drug legally. The increased usage of medical marijuana has some implications including suicidal attempts among cannabis users. Melanie Rylander, Carolyn Valdez, and Abraham Nussbaum conducted an investigation to establish the relationship between the legalization of medical marijuana and increased suicide. The team conducted their investigations in ...

Analytical methods to evaluate seed dormancy in legumes

Abstract
Legumes are known to have multiple health benefits. The seed coat in particular contains a number of bioactive compounds which possess antioxidant activity. Of great interest is the relationship between the chemical composition of the seed coat and its role in seed dormancy. Modern technological approaches are currently used to further identify these compounds and determine their role in seed development; these include NRIS FTIR, mass spectroscopy, electron microscopy and chromatography. The following review describes the constituents of the legume seed coat and their respective roles in dormancy and other stages of seed development. The review also highlights ...

Article Summaries

According to Scarr and Richard, the influence of intelligence is due to genetics and environmental variables that are difficult to segregate. Psychologists often argue about the nature and the nurture of genetic variation fixes in the human behavior (Scarr and Richard 262). Some offer that genetic differences are negating to change in behavior. This belief has limitation since it fails to distinguish the environmental and the genetic sources of individual differences in behavior. In this case, one is not in a position to assess the impact of heredity in behavioral domains since all people have a gene complement expressed over development.

Article critique

The authors to the study did not cite any research question.What is its importance?
The study sought to predict rater elevation using the Five-factor model (FFM) of personality. Elevated ratings cause numerous problems for operational-performance management systems such as employee dissatisfaction with appraisal and reward systems and difficulties in justifying termination decisions. The researchers thus sought to elucidate on the problem of rater elevation by identifying individual variables that contribute to the behavior. What is/are the hypothesis/hypotheses?
The authors hypothesized that Agreeableness (A) scores were positively linked to rating level and conscientiousness (C) scores were positively associated ...

The survey intends to assess this relationship and how it impacts on business performances. There have been numerous studies on relationships between financial and social performances, but none of the studies provides findings on the importance of disclosures. According to the study, annual reports and accounts disclosures are sufficient elements that should be considered in social performance measurements. The significance of the survey is further explained by the fact that social reports and disclosures are only made by large firms with no audit records. This implies biasness in such reports; hence they are not sufficient tools to assess business ...

Background

Each year, millions of mammals cross the Seregenti. The migration of the wildebeest is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world. But there is something not so wonderful in the Serengeti—an endemic disease called anthrax that strikes and kills without discrimination. It kills humans, livestock, and wildlife.

This study is about the ecopathology of Bacillus anthracis (Cohn), the pathogen that causes anthrax. Anthrax is not a big problem in most countries, but anthrax is still common in Africa because sanitation is poor, and there is no access to vaccines.
The ecology of anthrax is not well ...

Artificial Sweeteners Article Review

In the article “Artificial Sweeteners: Outwitting the Wisdom of the Body?,” Linda Bartoshuk (2009) explains the controversy behind artificial sweeteners. Artificial sweeteners have been recommended to dieters under the notion that artificial sweeteners substitute sugar effectively while reducing calorie intake. However, Bartoshuk (2009) raises the question if they promote weight gain or weight loss because several researches indicate that the paradigm about weight loss properties of artificial sweeteners could prove false. Research on artificial sweeteners will inevitably produce positive outcomes for individuals and their well-being, but if artificial sweeteners support weight gain, further research could cause paradigm shifts in ...

In the presented quote from a journal article “Violence, crisis, and the everyday” (2013) by Das, the author is guilty of stereotyping as an informal fallacy. The author groundlessly suggests that the ideas of masculinity are correlated with young men changing provisional jobs instead of having a regular one. This stereotyping, especially given in the context of the problem of rape by boys and men living in very poor districts, can have dramatic impact on the perception of masculinity, its dependence on the job status and its effect on men getting involved in rape. The research has shown no credible evidential ...

To avoid conflict, all neighboring countries demarcate their borders to safeguard their resources and self-interest. Foreign policy relations enable countries to interact with each other especially in trading affairs and international policy discussions. To enhance a country’s external economies of scale dominance, it is necessary to observe the policies of other nations. Some countries advance their relations further to form a single union with common interests. For instance, United States of America was formed as a resolution of harmonious ...
