Sociological Study of the Impact of Genetics Research
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing the sociological concerns of genetic research. Genetic research is a concern for social scientists who feel that largely the “explosion” of knowledge which has occurred in the field of genetic research has not considered the ethical, legal, moral and social impact the research will ultimately have on society. Already those concerned about genetic research have noted the shifts in health care research funding which have left many diseases which affect the overall populations unfunded and instead focused the funding on specific diseases which may or may not be related more to certain ethnic groups. Legally, the increasing number of genetic databases which are kept on individuals may be used for issues relating to insurance, employer files or criminal profiling and critics are concerned that the rights of privacy also will be violated. In addition, concerns in genetic research has led to discussions regarding the rights of disable persons, women and minorities and the ultimate effects of cloning and the human genome project. Largely, most social scientists feel that genetic research will not aid in maintaining the diversity in society but will lead to increasing prejudice and bias. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Soy And Osteoporosis
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper. Osteoporosis is a disease that affects at least 10 million Americans, 80 percent of whom are women. Osteopenia, or abnormally low bone density affects another 18 million people, placing them at risk of developing osteoporosis. In recent years, a number of studies have investigated the properties of soy in the prevention and treatment of both these conditions. This paper reports the results of the studies and explains what elements in soy are credited with preventing other diseases. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

Speech Therapy/Tracheotomized Children
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper that examines the effects of tracheotomy on children's speech production. Tracheotomy, while saving a child's life by providing an unobstructed air supply, has also shown to entail developmental risks, such as speech delay. This effect of tracheotomies in young children has been well documented, particularly in regards to children who have long-term tracheotomy. This examination of literature pertaining to this topic investigates what studies have discerned relative to this problem, and also shows the need for more research on this topic. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Spina Bifida
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing the birth defect, its causes and treatment. Spina bifida is a birth defect of decreasing incidence in the United States, largely resulting from better nutritional information among women of childbearing age. It can have nearly no symptoms in its mildest forms, but severe cases can manifest paralysis and mental retardation. A high percentage of cases could be avoided with adequate levels of folic acid, and the nutrient has become a standard food additive in the US. Genetic predisposition and some drugs also can play a role. The only known effective treatment is that of surgery; surgeons successfully performed an in utero covering of the neural tube so that exposure to amniotic fluid would not further damage it. The baby was born with normal leg movement only a few weeks later. Bibliography lists 14 sources.

Spinal Cord Injury & Male Fertility
[ send me this paper ]
A 24 page research paper that offers an extensive literature review that addresses studies concerning spinal cord injury men and their fertility. Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) can result from a variety of accidents that include car accidents, falls, violence or sports-related activities (Brackett, 1999). Spinal cord injuries also frequently happen with young men, in the years when they would like to father children. Among the multiple medical challenges facing these young men is the inability to ejaculate via sexual intercourse (Brackett, 1999). This literature review explores the literature on this issue. Bibliography lists 26 sources.

Spondylolysis and Spondylolisthesis
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page paper providing an overview of these two conditions commonly associated with the L5 vertebra. Spondylolysis is most often associated with adolescents, at least in the time that the conditions appear. It is believed that they may affect between five and six percent of the population, and they can lead to chronic back pain. Management of spondylolysis is relatively simple though its diagnosis may not be. However, that diagnosis is worth pursuing because it can lead to spondylolisthesis, which can require surgery to correct. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
