Case summary:
Ms. Burton, 48 years aged woman, overweight, pale, and sweating reports about severe abdominal pain. Symptoms being 102 beats/min heart rate and BP is 145/98 mm Hg, with few signs of jaundice. She was also suffering from gallstone disease condition and reports to have pain in the epigastric region forwarding with the tip of the right shoulder. In medical history being reported for biliary colic.
Characters in the case:
A 48-year-old female named Ms. Burton.
Adequate information:
Severe and steady abdominal pain since last night with nausea and vomiting. Heart rate as 102 beats/min (beats per minute) and BP is 145/98 mm Hg (millimeters of mercury). Medical history with biliary colic;3–4 hours after having a high-fat meal as seven cheese pizza, pain becomes persistence.
To determine:
Various structures through which gallstones pass out.
Introduction:
Gallstone is a tiny rock-like structure that is formed inside the gallbladder. They are generally made from cholesterol or bile salts particles that clumps around and forms like a solid mass. The continuous accumulation of this causes its size to increase, but mostly the size of gallstones is small enough to pass out of the body via intestines without getting noticed.

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forward

In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardIf a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forward
