A 36 page research paper that examines the pandemic of childhood obesity. This literature review examines the empirical research on the topic of childhood obesity in order to discern the efficacy of treatment options for this epidemic, which is plaguing the industrialized nations. Conclusions are then drawn concerning the efficacy of these proposed treatments and/or programs and how the literature suggests that childhood obesity should be addressed in light of this data. The review concludes by discussing the implications of this research in regards to possible future studies that will add to this body of knowledge and contribute to the goal of effectively coping with this societal problem.

Effects of Cocaine Use on the Brain: Regions of the Brain, Neurotransmitters, Long and Short Term Effects
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the effects of cocaine use on the brain. Abstract included. Cocaine has been found to be one of the most popular and easily available addictive drugs in today’s population. The popularity of cocaine is not only in its increased availability and decreased price over the past few decades but also because of its addictive qualities. The addictive nature of cocaine is based on the neurotransmitter dopamine which is responsible for the emotional feeling of a “high” from cocaine use. Cocaine inhibits the reuptake mechanism for dopamine concentrations in the synaptic cleft on specific neurotransmitters and the resulting higher concentration leads to an increased emotional response. Short and long terms effects of cocaine use have been shown to include brain hemorrhages, seizures, hypertension, high blood pressure, tachycardia, developmental problems in “crack babies” and in some cases death. While these severe effects are due to cocaine use, other severe effects can also result from cocaine withdrawal. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Effects Of Hypothyroidism
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Hypothyroidism - a medical condition whereby an underactive thyroid does not produce an adequate amount of hormone for the body to function normally - has many offshoot consequences above and beyond the physical issues that can manifest from the condition; because of lacking the hormone thyroxin, the body's energy level suffers as does its metabolism, so lethargy and weight gain are two side effects that can impact a person's self-esteem. This is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, however, inasmuch as a number of other undesirable physical problems develop that also influence how an individual feels about herself, not the least of which includes dry, coarse hair; rough, dry skin; thinning hair; constipation; depression; loss of memory; irritability and decreased sex drive. Any one of these symptoms may not cause a person to think poorly of herself but when experienced in tandem can create an unfavorable image all due to an improperly working thyroid gland. No bibliography.

Effects of Volatile Anesthetics on G Proteins
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page report discusses the effects of volatile (inhalation) anesthetics on G-proteins. G proteins are a key to the chemical “switches” that get take place in order to communicate messages in the body. As the receptors react, they change shape which then allows for the G protein to also change. It releases the a GDP molecule and grabs onto a related molecule called GTP. Having attached the GTP to itself, it then acts on membrane processes such as enzymes and ion channels. That process then results in a new “messenger” molecule -- cyclic AMP. An 'enzymatic cascade' then takes place because the AMP causes a protein reaction. A literature review is included that outlines a number of the projects regarding the subject that have been undertaken in the past decade. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Elasticity of Demand: Health Care
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page paper discussing the microeconomic effects of spiraling health care costs. The presence of the third-party payer masks the effect of elasticity of demand for health care, as it does its microeconomic effects. It does not mask the results, however. As politicians continue to haggle over the future of Medicare and it continues to set the standard for private health insurers, increasing numbers of households can expect to have decreased access to health care. Includes 1 chart. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
