.... years bulimia was associated with anorexia as if it was a joint disease. Finally, in 1979, doctor G.F.M. Russell was the first physician to describe this disorder as a separate disease from anorexia to which he called it bulimia nervosa (Epstein 40). Today this disease has seemed to grow to quite an absurd level. Unlike when this disease began in the early 20th-century, there are no longer a few rare cases of an eating disorder, but a rather large number of people fighting such a problem. A 1987 study has shown that 19% of college students have bulimic episodes. It is also noted that 80 to 95% of bulimic cases happen to be .....

.... There are two variants of chemokines, alpha and beta chemokines. Among these there are many different chemokines from CCR5, CCR3, CXCR4, etc… Now AIDS needs the CD4 molecule and the CCR5 protein to be present on a T-cell to successfully infect the cell. It needs the CD4 molecule to latch on to the cell. Once this is accomplished it needs the CCR5 protein to be able to get inside of the cell in order to infect it. Both of these two factors are essential in order for AIDS to infect a person. Unfortunately, less than a hundredth of a percent of the human population lacks the CD4 molecule; so finding people without the molecule .....

.... that weight loss or restricted eating is a problem (www.anorexia.com, Internet). The American Anorexia Nervosa Association defines anorexia as a "serious illness of deliberate self-starvation with profound psychiatric and physical components." Now that we know what anorexia means, lets narrate how this disease came to be noticeable. We have the knowledge that anorexia nervosa is affecting a greater number of individuals. Although it was discovered not so long ago, anorexia nervosa has been around for quite a while. According to Neuman, there is evidence of the presence of an identical condition that proc .....

.... problem for smokers, now they have to go outside even in the winter to have a cigarette, even though they used to be able to smoke inside.A strong supporter on smokers rights is Democratic Assemblyman Dick Floyd, who wanted to vote for a controversial smokers right bill. He feels it is not a smoking bill, it merely protects the people who use legal substances such as tobacco and alcohol in their homes from job discrimination. However, smoking in public places is a danger to non-smokers health for the reason of passive or second-hand smoke. The public does not realize the significant hazards of passive smoking. A U.S enviro .....

.... intervention of outsiders, to decide to do whatever they want to do to their bodies and minds. I know, "these women that are being circumcised, aren't freely deciding on this to be done to them, they don't know any better, they've been brainwashed". I have two responses to this. The first is, if they have grown up in this culture all their lives, and this procedure has been done to their mothers, sisters, great grandmothers, etc. on the fear that if it is not done, something tearable will happen, there is no way they would not want it done; no matter how much pain it causes, and besides those that are able to break away from .....

.... is found early, it can be corrected with surgical procedures or, in some minor cases, corrective procedures. Surgical procedures include bypass, laser and balloon surgery. In bypass surgery a vein is removed from the lower leg and a clogged vessel is worked around. Often in type of surgery the whole mid section of the body is cut and the ribs are pulled back, very painful with a very slow recovery. Some hospitals have now implemented a new technique where only a small hole is made and everything is done via a view screen. In balloon surgery a balloon is inserted into the vessel with the clog and is inflated. When this occurs .....

.... 60 medical centers all over the United States of America, the new approach has been found. Transurethral Alprostadil has enabled 64.9% of all men with erectile disfunction to have an erection during sexual intercourse, compared to 18.6% on placebo. Other therapies include needle injection, vacuum devices, and implants. the new treatment is used by inserting an applicator containing a microspository of aprosital into the urethra after going to the bathroom. When a button on the applicator is pressed the suppository is deposited into the urethral lining. Then after ten minutes an erection is formed .....

.... those arteries supplying the heart muscle itself, i.e., the coronary arteries. Like any other organ, the heart requires a steady flow of oxygen and nutrients to provide energy for rmovement, and to maintain the delicate balance of chemicals which allow for the careful electrical rhythm control of the heart beat. Unlike some other organs, the heart can survive only a matter of minutes without these nutrients, and the rest of the body can survive only minutes without the heart--thus the critical nature of these syndromes. Causes of blockage range from congenital tissue strands within or over the arteries to spasms of the muscu .....

.... because it is not under voluntary control. Cardiac muscle is a special type of muscle found only in the heart. It consists of linked fibers that contract in unison producing the heartbeat. Skeletal, or Striated Muscle Tissue: This type of muscle is composed of long fibers surrounded by a membranous sheath, the sarcolemma. The fibers are elongated, sausage-shaped cells containing many nuclei and clearly display longitudinal and cross striations. Skeletal muscle is supplied with nerves from the central nervous system, and because it is partly under conscious control, it is also called voluntary muscle. Most skeletal muscle is .....

.... born. This seems like a very contradictory and unnecessary practice. One major problem with the is the fact that people actually support it. With almost every other major injustice in America, including domestic violence, discrimination, sexual harassment, and others, the vast majority are strongly opposed to its existence. However, the majority of Americans support abortion by declining to ban it. When a majority of people support one of the biggest injustices in America, it is a dangerous thing. Not since the issue of slavery has such a support for an injustice been eminent. One day, however, people will look back on the .....
