Document Summary

The effect of air pollutants on children"s pulmonary tract in canada. In the 21st-century climate change is one of the major concerns the world is currently facing. Children are more vulnerable to air particle pollution because of their relative body weight to the rest of the population. They are also more at risk for airway infections because of the undeveloped immune system. Children are the primary victims that are suffering from ambient air pollution. Furthermore, this newspaper article critically emphasized is the correlation between climate change and air pollution. This article has reported that there has been an increase in temperature and co2 levels over the past decade. Through chronic exposure to fine particulate matter, the children are constantly suffering in poor air quality, which would lead to respiratory diseases (smith 2000). The study has shown that ozone layer is getting worse and worse every year, especially in countries that are less developed than canada.

A 25 year old graduate student who had recently visited Finland and Japan for meetings was seen at an outpatient clinic. He complained of abdominal discomfort, fever, diarrhea. A stool sample was requested for parasite and enteric pathogen examination. A wet mount of the stool sample was positive for heminth eggs and bacterial culture was negative for pathogenic bacteria. Small flask shaped eggs with distinct shoulders and larger operculated eggs were found in the wet mount. 1) What intestinal parasites caused the patients infections (specify type of helminth)? 2) How did the patient acquire the infections? (what was the source of infection?). 3) What part of the parasite life cycle is important for transmission of both parasites? 4) What effect can both parasites have on the host? 5) How are the infections treated? Select the correct answers associated with this case study.
