Ovarian
Cancer
[
send
me this paper
]
In 1995, the rate of women being diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year
in the United States was 22,000 (Anonymous 1995). This form of cancer is
not easily detected in the early stages, which means that by the time it
is diagnosed, serious health problems have occurred. Ovarian cancer is
less prevalent than breast cancer, has a higher mortality rate and is
linked with the same genetically presupposed gene. It is the fourth
leading cause of cancer mortality in the United States causing 14 500
deaths in 1998 (Bonn, 1999). An annual pelvic exam and possible the new
testing for the gene are the most common preventative measures. This 5
page paper explores the physiological repercussions of this deadly
disease. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

investigates whether there may be some detriment to the advice of the
popular press that Vitamin C as a dietary supplement in fairly large

Orthopedic
Sports Medicine
[
send
me this paper
]
A 16 page paper discussing the state of evolution of orthopedic sports
medicine. It often carries the remnant of the skepticism of years past,
when those involved just seemed not to fit anywhere. The physicians
involved in orthopedic sports medicine often were looked on as M.D.s that
simply couldn't compete in the world of 'real' medicine, and the lay
people involved as trainers and support personnel to the performing
athletes were regarded as would-be athletes with the same disabilities.
But times are changing. Orthopedic sports medical practitioners are being
viewed as competent as any other M.D. in any other specialty, and sound
research is contributing to the overall well of knowledge regarding
injury, treatment options and patient outcomes. Bibliography lists 12
sources.
