Community involvement cannot be ignored because this practice makes multiple sources available for creating new strategies and understanding human behaviors (Scrimshaw 7653).…

  • Personal Genetics and Risks of Diseases

    Table of Contents Introduction Main body Conclusion References Introduction Concerning genetics, biographical information includes data such as ethnicity. Although diseases occur in all ethnic groups, some are more frequent in specific populations as compared to others. Therefore, being that prior risk is centered on the couples and donors ethnic background, residual risk will also be…

  • Sex Chromosomes Impact on Metabolic Diseases

    Research A research article I found said that genetic specificities of sex chromosomes impact the likelihood and severity of developing diseases, such as hypertension, cardiac ischemia, obesity, aneurism, or atherosclerosis (Arnold et al., 2017). It is important to add that not only sex chromosomes determine biological sex of a person, but there are other four…

  • Multifactorial Disease: Diagnosis and Treatment

    Multifactorial or complex diseases can stem from several factors as it becomes clear from the title. It may be a genetic impairment or unhealthy lifestyle habits, inheritance, or a combination of them. For example, heart disease can be called multifactorial because there can be many issues that cause the heart to malfunction like inherently high…

  • Microbe-Human Interaction in Health and Disease

    One of the most critical topics in microbe-human interaction concerns microbial reservoirs since they inform one about the various places pathogens can be found. Generally speaking, people, other species, and environmental elements are the groups of reservoirs (Anderson et al., 2020). Pathogens with human repositories, as a rule, adhere solely to body tissue. These organisms…

  • Genetics: Gaucher Disease Type 1

    Table of Contents Abstract Disease diagnosis Etiology Case study Conclusion Reference List Abstract The Gaucher disease type 1 category is a genetically related complication in which there is an automatic recession in the way lysosomes store some important gene enzymes. This abnormality is mainly caused by the slow or sometimes dormant reactivity of the genetic…

  • Radiation Effect and Human Disease Correlation

    Radiation results from the decay of unstable nuclei to give out particles that could destroy normal tissues leading to diseases such as cancer. Radioactive elements are referred to as ionizing radiations that can impact the chemical and physical traits of the molecules they are exposed to. Radiation comprises high-energy particles, containing alpha, beta, and gamma…

  • Gene Modification: Means of Disease Prevention

    Table of Contents Introduction Experimentation and Collection of Data Data Interpretation and Evaluation Reference Introduction This research was motivated by the observation of a faulty mutant MYBPC3 gene copy causing a lethal heart disease in people who have inherited it. Since the nature of the disorder is genetical, it was assumed gene modification with the…
