Post-stroke dysphagia, a potentially fatal complication, affects an estimated 23-50% of all stroke survivors. It is associated with a seven fold increase in the risk for aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration pneumonia increases the catabolic demands of the body and in the settings of impaired swallowing leads to a vicious cycle of malnutrition, dehydration, and further infections (Shaker & Geenen, 2011). Dysphagia affects a significant number of patients with hemispheric stroke which is the main subtype of ischemic stroke in the general population (Kumar et al., 2011). The functions of swallowing are subserved by a vast brain network. The inferior peri-rolandic sensorimotor ...

The word culture has been commonly used in the current society. However, it is worth noting its true definition.

Despite the different definitions, most of them put emphasis on same aspects. For this discussion, therefore, the definition of culture will be given. Also, the article will provide its five primary characteristics, and the overview of the physical geography, military conflict and its impact ...

One of the largest and most controversial topics pertaining to nationwide and homeland security is the issue concerning nuclear weapons.

A & F Ltd.: Integrating Learning into Mashup Implementations

I. Introduction Organizations are learning differently. Compared to a conventional model by which individuals, work groups and whole organizations used to learn new business processes, current business practice has opened up new potentials for company-wide learning enabled by ICT platforms and applications. The growing collaboration, communication and sharing learning (and fun) experiences in current business practice is, indeed, both evolutionary and revolutionary. The learning behavior of operating businesses is evolutionary by phasing out older modes of learning (e.g. formal professional development, meetings and water cooler chats) and implementing similar platforms and applications (e.g. interactive, collaborative, user-friendly wikis). Thus, by ...

Application of elasticity in Starbucks Corporation

Introduction The concept of elasticity has great application in the decision-making process of a firm. Both production and pricing strategies must consider the level of elasticity of demand for various products. The market behavior of various products can be predicted by determining their elasticity with respect to price and income (Dobson & Palfreman, 1999). The price elasticity of demand helps in the measurement of the extent to which the quantity demanded responds to price changes while the income elasticity indicates how the quantity demanded varies households’ incomes (Opeyemi, 2013). Therefore, price elasticity helps in the pricing decisions while income elasticity ...

Introduction

One could hardly imagine a resident of the developed country who has never delved into such aspect of popular culture as sport – either by buying a soccer ticket, buying exactly the same sneakers model David Beckham was wearing in that Adidas commercial, following the Olympics on TV or hunting some rare baseball cards. In the modern world, sport activities have become extremely different from the leisure games they used to be as they were invented. In the recent decades, significant societal, economic, political and cultural transformations turned sport not just into a socially meaningful phenomenon but rather in an ...

Part 1 – Assault and Battery

The terms “assault and battery” are often used together although these are two separate crimes. An assault is defined as an action that causes a person to feel the threat of impending violence. An action such as raising a fist or moving menacingly towards the intended victim constitutes an assault, even if no physical contact has occurred. The crime of battery occurs when there is physical contact. Grabbing a person’s arm or punching or striking a person constitutes a case of battery (Baldwin, 2007). Simple assault or battery, where there is limited threat of violence or a minor ...

What factors inhibited the early war against acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)?

There was the lack of information to the public; in essence, the CDC did not communicate the correct information to the public. Many people assumed that the disease was for gay people yet the disease affected everyone. For instance, owners of the public bathrooms did not see the importance of closing the baths down yet they were a threat to the health of the public, (And The Band Played On 1993, 1993). The disease is also a rare one, and it did not have a name in the first place. It was quite difficult to establish the causative agent ...

Many factors contributed to the Great Depression. In America, the roaring twenties produced a false sense of prosperity, America had become the world’s bank that faced the crisis of defaulting loans, and, the failure of banks following the stock market crash each contributed to the great depression. The most damaging of these, in my opinion, was the American attitude that created a false sense of prosperity and caused behavior in individuals that had a significant impact on the economy. During the 1920’s, the economy was reaching new heights and Americans were spending at excessive amounts. However, the ...

Rwanda is a developing nation in the Eastern Africa region that remains highly dependent on foreign aid from international bodies such as World Bank and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP).
