Document Summary

Milgram experiment: i would not press the switch because no amount of research is worth the pain that i would think that the learners were experiencing. If this research was important enough, the doctor could conduct it on his own and inflict pain in the respondents himself. They were told that it was part of the experiment but there was no one who forced them to continue. They were able to leave whenever they wanted but just because an authority figure was telling them to continue, they did. They were the ones who were choosing to click the buttons, knowing that what they were doing was causing extreme pain to the person on the other side. I think the participants were able to administer the shocks because the individual who was wearing the white coat is believed to be a doctor or scientist and these individuals possess knowledge which makes them an authority figure.

In Matthew 20:1-16 Jesus tells a parable and uses the labor market of His day as an example of the Kingdom of God. In 150+ words, explain what lessons the parable has in how we should think about wages and the labor market today.

Matthew 20:1-16

“For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius[a] for the day and sent them into his vineyard.3 “About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4 He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So they went.“He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the same thing. 6 About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’7 “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered.“He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.’9 “The workers who were hired about five in the afternoon came and each received a denarius. 10 So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. 11 When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 12 ‘These who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’13 “But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend.Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius? 14 Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. 15 Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’16 “So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

I Gastroenterology Consultation Report

Handout Instructions: Below is an item from a patient’s medial record. Read it carefully, make sure you understand all the medical terms used, and then answer the questions that follow. Please follow the instructions given on the email to submit assignment.

Gastroenterology Consultation Report

Reason for Consultation: Evaluation of recurrent epigastric and LUQ pain with anemia.

History of Present Illness: Patient is a 56-year-old male. He reports a long history of mild dyspepsia characterized by burning epigastric pain, especially when his stomach is empty. Over-the-counter antacids have relieved this pain. Approximately two weeks ago, the pain became significantly worse; he is also nauseated and has vomited several times.

Past Medical History: Patient’s history is not significant for other digestive system disorders. He had a tonsillectomy at age 8. He sustained a compound fracture of the left ankle in a bicycle accident at age 11 that required surgical fixation. More recently he has been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate gland, and surgery has been recommended. However, he would like to resolve this epigastric pain before going forward with the TUR.

Results of Physical Exam: CBC indicates anemia, and a fecal occult blood test is positive for blood in the feces. A blood test for Helicobacter pylori is positive. Erosion in the gastric lining was visualized on an upper GI. Follow-up gastroscopy found evidence of mild reflux esophagitis and an ulcerated lesion in the lining of the pyloric section of the stomach. This ulcer is 1.5 cm in diameter and deep. There is evidence of active bleeding from the ulcer. Multiple biopsies were taken, and they were negative for gastric cancer. IV Tagamet relieved the painful symptoms in two days.

Assessment: Peptic ulcer. Gastric cancer has been ruled out in light of the negative biopsies.

Recommendations: A gastrectomy to remove the ulcerated portion of stomach is indicated because the ulcer is already bleeding. Patient should continue on Tagamet to reduce stomach acid. Two medications will be added: Keflex to treat the bacterial infection and iron pills to reverse the anemia. Patient was instructed to eat frequent small meals and avoid alcohol and irritating foods.

This patient reports LUQ pain. What does LUQ stand for and what organs do you find there?

This patient had two diagnostic tests that indicated he was losing blood. Name these two tests (no abbreviations).

This patient had a procedure to visually examine the ulcer. Name the procedure done.

Name the serious pathological condition that was ruled out.

Comments on this, i need a paragrapgh on comments abaout this...

Abortion keeps being a controversy because both sides of the spectrum have valid points. The side that is prolife it right about abortion being the termination of an organism. Their believe system states that murdering human being is wrong and since an unborn child is still a human child, then by default this should be condemned as a wrong thing. They also say they are helping the woman themselves because abortion can have “the risk of breast cancer in those who had experienced an induced abortion was 50% higher than among other women” however the same study states “the results across all epidemiologic studies of this premise are inconsistent—both overall and within specific subgroups. The risk of breast cancer should be re-examined”. This means we should not jump in to conclusion because more studies need to be done before accepting something as fact. The side for pro-choice states that a woman should have the choice to make her own decision no matter if it is a good or bad decision. A decision that will change her live completely and most of the time make it harder for a woman to get ahead in life.

I am pro-choice, not because I like terminating live, I am actually pro-live of any type of organisms not just humans, but because woman who phase this problem should have their reason or really are not prepare to have a baby in a modern society, and as Mack T Brown said “The value of a self-represented future resides within the person herself, as a feature of a richly complex mental life". Both sides of the argument go to the extreme to explain their case pro-choice and give the example of a raped woman. Pro-live give the example of that a baby is always a good thing. Both acceptable, however most woman are not in this spectrums, an example that is more relevant is a woman who does not have the emotionally and or financial maturity to make the choice that is to have a child. Physically a girl is ready to have a child when her menstrual cycle begins that is usually around 13. Most people would agree that a girl of that age will not have any type of maturity to take care of even herself less a child. Let’s not go far let’s say a girl of eighteen years old getting out of high school, she may have a rare emotional maturity at that age to have the child but in today’s society impossible without any help from family members to take care of that child. How many hours will she work? How will she take care of the child? How will she go to school to better herself for the future to come? These girls that are asking themselves if they should have an abortion is not because it is something they would like to do, it is a hard decision to postpone taking that live changing decision before they are ready to do it and not be a burden in society.

The current abortion law is strict, so abuse of the law will be very hard to do. In the third trimester a woman would need 2 signatures of two physicians to be able to do an abortion. I personally think that this is great this way we can assure that there is no negligence from any party. The part of the law I do not agree with is that the law says that if during the abortion the baby is born alive they need to offer emergency services. This defeats the purpose of an abortion that as harsh as it sounds it is to terminate the pregnancy cycle before time.
