“One person’s abnormality is another person’s life.”-Alice Dreger

The extent to which one person’s abnormality is another person’s life is relative to the scope of anatomical normality or abnormality. Genetic abnormalities that relate to gender, otherwise known as anatomical sexual variation, are part of human intersexuality. Intersex is defined as the anatomical variation from the standard male or female gender, and is a pathological variable that require medical treatment. This means that an intersex child has the sexual anatomy of both genders.
Intersex genitals may therefore be a sign of an underlying medical condition, but they are not a medical problem. The Continue reading...

The binding of antibodies to red blood cells can lead to potentially fatal outcomes such as hemolytic transfusion reactions, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, and hemolytic disease of the fetus/newborn.1 Information regarding the first steps of hemolytic transfusion reactions is well documented. It is, however, unclear why the severity of hemolytic transfusions experienced by different individuals ranges from mild to very severe.2 The pathophysiology of the final pathways and downstream events of red blood cell hemolysis are also yet to be fully elucidated although research is ongoing.2 A recent study by Liepkalns et al. (2012)1 has reinvigorated debate on the Continue reading...

Biomedical engineering can be described as the application of engineering techniques and principles to medicine. It is a combination of expertise in medicine, human biology and engineering in the development of techniques and technologies for patient care and healthcare. According to Monzon (277), biomedical engineering is yet to be formally recognized as a profession due to its multi and interdisciplinary nature. As a result, currently there is no distinct field that addresses biomedical engineering ethics. The ethical obligations of biomedical engineers are a combination of both those of medical professionals and engineers. By studying three fields of biomedical engineering, Continue reading...

- If Adam Smith were faced with the problem of procuring donor organs, he might suggest that we would be better off relying on donors’ self-interest rather than their benevolence, and advocate a market solution to distributing this scarce resource. Karl Polanyi, however, might argue that society would be harmed by allowing the market to displace the gift relationships created by voluntary donation. Although both died before successful organ transplantation was possible, use what you have learned of their theories to state the position you think each would take on whether and why organ donations should be organized on Continue reading...

The observation is a study of altruistic behavior of adults toward strangers. One goal in the study is to determine if the presence of an audience motivates a person to be charitable. Hudson and Bruckman (2004) theorized an individual of a particular personality will respond more to the opportunity to participate in a charitable contribution if others are aware of the donation. This may be evidenced in a donation when the plate is passed n church when a person feels others are watching. Some religious organizations include an envelope to conceal the amount of the donation.

- Why are mutations at D185, D186 and D110 are so detrimental to RT activity? (15 Points)
Mutations at D185, D186 and D110 are very detrimental to RT activity owing to the fact that the three carboxylate residues have been documented to participate in some forms of physiological processes and metal coordination function that is fundamentally required in the binding of deoxyrobonucleotide substrates to the enzyme. And so, when these subunits are interfered as a result of mutation then the fore mentioned biological process are essentially incapacitated. Furthermore, the region was also subcloned due to mutagenesis hence the high Continue reading...

How can they justify this policy? Give at least two reasons and explain them
The need for the policy justification before delivering treatment and malaria vaccines is critical since the receiving nations might perceive the cheap and subsidized vaccines as rejects and they may end up not embracing them. Hence, the first way of justifying is consider the world health Organization statistics (Robert, 34). The level of the need and poverty of the nations to be assisted should be first discussed with the concerned parties. This will ensure that the need for the vaccines is widely analyzed based on Continue reading...
