<span>Jennifer's physician suspects she may have an ulcer in the _duodenum_, which is the first section of her small intestine.
The small intestine connects directly to the stomach via the pyloric sphincter. A peptic ulcer involves the spilling of very acidic stomach juice into the duodenum, which is the closest portion of the small intestine to the stomach. This can present as epigastric pain (in the upper center abdomen, just below the xiphoid process, or lower portion of the sternum). Usually it is brought on by ingesting acidic or spicy liquids, alcohol, or after going several hours without eating. Those ingestions can ramp up gastric acid production, and having nothing in the stomach allows pure acid to spill into the duodenum, which irritates an already eroded mucosal epithelium. Eating non-acidic, non-spicy foods like bread or milk helps to alleviate the pain by soaking up the acid in the stomach (bread) or neutralizing some of it (milk). But an empty stomach poses the largest risk of irritation. Also the epigastric region hones the pain in on the duodenum, since it crosses midline from the left upper abdomen (stomach) towards the right side as it continues on. If it were acutely painful in only the left upper quadrant (LUQ) of the abdomen, it would almost assuredly be gastritis or a gastric ulcer (gastro- meaning stomach).</span>
Marasmus is a severe form of malnutrition, usually occurs in children in developing countries, can be life-threatening but can be treated. Preliminary diagnosis of marasmus, as done by the doctor above, is through physical examination. Weight and height of a particular child should be parallel to his/her age. Motion/mobility of the child/patient is also of consideration because those children with marasmus usually have lack energy to move. Blood tests, however, is not definitive because a malnourished child with marasmus wilol usually have many infection, hence, it will all show in his/her blood results. The main symptom of marasmus is being underweight and loss of lot of muscle mass and subcutaneous fats (fat under the skin). It is also accompanied by stunted growth, respiratory infection, chronic diarrhea and intellectual disability. Nutrient deficiency is main cause of marasmus. They are deficient in food rich in vitamins and minerals such as iron, iodine, zinc and Vitamin A. Initial treatment of marasmus is dried skim milk powder mixed with boiled water. Later on, vegetable oil like sesame, casein and sugar can be incorporated to increase energy content and density of the mixture. On his/her way to recovery, a more balanced diet is required. Rehydration through oral hydration is also a priority because of dehydration caused by diarrhea. Infections should also be treated by antibiotics.
Answer:
The basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the rate that is required of minimum energy to be able to meet vital signs and the development of life, for this a calculation is needed, this calculation presents two variables, height, age, sex and the weight ... making the TMB different in every living being.
TMB-man = (10x weight in KG) + (6.25X height in cm) - (5 x age in years) + 5.
We only explain the one of the man since juan consider that it is of masculine gender.
Explanation:
The variables that we see in the TMB equation are fundamental also to understand that babies do not have the same energy demand when it comes to meeting their vital signs as an elderly or adult, that a woman does not have the same energy expenditure as the Neither man since it processes hormonal situations much more catalytic of energy such as menstruation, people with rickets or obesity will have different energy demands, and also lastly, people with higher heights spend more energy during locomotion ...
We name all these examples because they relate the height, weight, sex and age, fundamental and strictly necessary variables to know the TMB of any human being.
I would say c because society doesn’t want you to feel bad for participating in sexual intercourse. They’re more worried about the diseases you could catch
