hi, can I please get help on a case study on nueroanatomy I have been struggling for a couple of hours now and can't seem to understand the study to answer the following questions. is there any way or format that i can get help. I would really appreciate it.
thanks!
1. Based on the information in the case, what is the most likely neuroanatomic location for a single lesion that can explain all of the patient’s symptoms and signs? In your own words, explain how you arrived at that localization.
2.What are some possibilities for the nature of the lesion (e.g., stroke, tumor, trauma, etc.)? In your own words, explain your rationale for these options.
3. How does the laboratory data and neuroimaging demonstrate the actual lesion for the patient? Describe how you interpret the data in your own words.
4.How was the patient was treated, and how did they subsequently fare? Describe the treatment plan in your own words.

Question: Research have stated that there are factors that could affect the efficacy and duration of mosquito repellants on our skins. State at least 3 factors that could decrease or influence the efficacies of topical mosquito repellants.arrow_forwardA 65 year old patient undergoes a hernia repair surgery. He receives a polypropylene mesh implant that prevents hernia recurrence. The healing goes well, but four weeks after the surgery he develops fever and sense of discomfort at the surgery site. On a physical examination, there is skin redness and fluctuating mass (palpable mass filled with fluid) around the incision. The doctor suspects that mesh got infected and plans mesh removal surgery. 1) Describe the sequence of local events during wound healing after the implantation of the mesh. For each of the stages of the wound healing process, specify cells that are involved, their role(s), signal molecules that are involved, and their roles. 2) Which pathogen most likely caused the infection? 3) After initiation of antibiotic treatment, the symptoms are resolved in two days and the patient stops taking antibiotic against the doctor's advise. Two weeks later, the mesh is removed and analyzed. It is found that a small area of the mesh…arrow_forward

Numerous cross-sectional studies in different populations have shown a significant relationship between the use of tanning beds and the development of melanoma. The odds ratios of these studies range from 3.2 to 7.1. In these studies, the number of hours of tanning bed use was highly correlated with an increase in the size and number of dysplastic nevi. Which of the following is the greatest limitation in establishing causality from these studies? A) Biologic plausibility B) Consistency of the findings C) Dose response D) Strength of association E) Temporal sequence of eventsarrow_forward
