Introduction

A discussion among the classical economists and the Keynesian economists continues on the government intervention in the free markets. According to the classical economists, the free market mechanism can develop solutions for the crisis in the market if there is no external influence on the markets. The Keynesian economy merely expresses that the free market economy carries the risk of generating crises and undesired deficit or surplus in the economy when the demand cannot clear the supply (Posner 234-252). The discussion on the government intervention is changing direction each time the world economy suffers from a global crisis becomes ...

Hypothalamus 1. What is the molecular mechanism to release TRH? TRH refers to the thyrotropin-releasing hormone. This hormone is produced by the hypothalamus. Before the full activity of TRH, some tightly controlled processes occur in the body including the appropriate folding of prohormone to move to the secretary pathway, the processing after translation, and movement of the peptides, which are processed, towards the secretary granules for secretion (Nillni n.p.). TRH develops from bigger inactive precursor (known as proTRH) as a result of modifications after translation and moved through the controlled secretary pathway. Prohormone convertases (abbreviated as PCs) including PC1/3 ...

Homeostasis refers to any self-regulating process by which biological systems attempt to maintain stability despite changes in the external and internal environment (Sturmberg & Martin, 2013).

Abstract

This paper discusses how exercise stimulates the release of growth hormone. Older people tend to have lower levels of the hormone. As a result, mechanisms have been formulated to help deal with the deficiency which includes inducing the growth hormone into the individual’s body. This, therefore, leads to the discussion of the exact mechanism through which the growth hormone facilitates exercise, maintains growth and repair of worn out muscles or even reverses the aging process among the aged. Also, the functions of IGF-I binding proteins during exercise and its importance in aiding the release of the GH is ...

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.

Monetary policy is the endeavor by the federal or state government to control the amount of money circulating within an economy. These control measures are undertaken to cub the instances of inflations or to control the interest rates to sustainable levels. Monetary policies can either be expansionary or contractionary.

The exploit of cannabis as well as its ingredient cannabinoids such as Tetrahydrocannabinol (9-THC) as a physician-recommended form of medicine or herbal therapy is what is known as medical Marijuana (Marmora, 1998). Even though the degree of the medicinal value of cannabis has been debated against widely, it does have numerous well-supported favourable outcomes. Amid these are the reduction of nausea and vomiting and encouragement of hunger in chemotherapy patients. Its efficiency as a pain reliever has also been proposed to be true. Conversely, Marijuana is an illegal drug so this brings about the question of why marijuana should be used ...
