A Muddled History
[ send
me this paper ]
An 8 page discussion of the legalities of passive and active euthanasia.
Contends that the United States is simply not ready for a nationwide
approval of euthanasia. Maintains that the public nor the legislative
bodies are fully receptive of euthanasia and that the administrative
oversight which would be required to ensure the equal and ethical
administration of the process would be overwhelming. Bibliography lists 8

Diabetes
Mellitus / Overview
[ send
me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing the actions and long-term implications of the
diabetes. At its core, the disease is the result of either insufficient
insulin production or a decreased sensitivity to that which is produced in
the body. There are two broad categories of diabetes, Type I, or
insulin-dependent diabetes; and Type II, non-insulin-dependent diabetes.
Type I formerly was referred to as juvenile diabetes while Type II was
commonly known as adult-onset diabetes, but those terms are rarely used
now that it is understood that either type can strike any age. Type II is
by far the most common. Newly diagnosed cases have reached epidemic
proportions worldwide, with new cases in the US increasing 50% between
1980 and 1994, with long-term complications such as kidney disease,
atherosclerosis and diabetes-induced blindness similarly increasing in
incidence. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Insulin
Synthesis Using Recombinant Plasmid DNA
[ send
me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing methods of constructing this plasmid containing
a gene for human insulin. As much as 5 percent of the population may be
affected by diabetes, a disease of carbohydrate metabolism in which the
sufferer of the disease is unable to absorb glucose from the blood.
Insulin for injection has been extracted from other animals until only
recently. Though bovine insulin will work for human diabetes control, the
chemical differences also cause reaction in some individuals. Bacterial
generation of insulin using recombinant DNA techniques has largely
replaced the use of bovine insulin in cases of human diabetes.

Juvenile
Diabetes
[ send
me this paper ]
A 5 page paper overview of Type I diabetes mellitus, or insulin-dependent
diabetes. Formerly referred to only as juvenile diabetes, it was thought
in the past that children were affected with only this type of diabetes.
As it has become known that anyone of any age can be afflicted with either
Type I or Type II, the term 'juvenile diabetes' has fallen out of favor,
but its effects are the same regardless of how it is labeled aside from
the particular ways it affects children: They often are larger than other
children their age and many go through puberty sooner than their
non-diabetic friends. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Ramadan:
Fasting's Impact Upon Muslim Diabetics
[ send
me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The extensive fasting performed during the holy months
of Ramadan may have its roots firmly planted in the individual's spiritual
development; however, for the diabetics who practice this sacred
tradition, it poses grave consequences to their ability to effectively
manage the disease. It is a known fact that the one aspect of diabetes
that cannot be overlooked is the ability to eat small amounts several
times a day. Without the appropriate levels of proteins and sugars
available to the system, the fasting diabetic only serves to severely
complicate his or her condition, ultimately threatening the chances for
survival. The writer discusses the fasting of Ramadan as it relates to
Muslim diabetics. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Does
Elevated Job Stress Affect Smoking Levels?
[ send
me this paper ]
A 28 page paper researching the hypothesis that smokers in high-stress
jobs tend to smoke more in response to stress than do smokers in jobs with
lower stress levels. Though there was no existing research with which to
guide our study, we believe we have obtained solid and statistically valid
results that unquestioningly prove that a smoker's response to a
high-stress job is that of smoking more than usual. Existing literature
emphasizes the relationship between stress and depression, and also that
between smoking and depression. Biochemical and psychological research has
concluded that there is a strong relationship between smoking and clinical
depression, though it is unclear which contributes to the other. This
survey does not specifically address depression, but it does give valuable
insight to the relationship of stress-related smoking and workplace
stress. Bibliography lists 42 sources.
