Summary Introduction

To determine: The sites in the body favorable for reproduction of poliomyelitis virus.

Introduction: The poliovirus causes poliomyelitis or polio or infantile paralysis. Poliovirus belongs to the family Picornaviridae and contains RNA as the genetic material. Polio was first described in 1789 and is also known as the leg wasting disease of children.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The possible outcome of infection of poliomyelitis virus.

Introduction: Poliovirus belongs to the family Picornaviridae and contains RNA as the genetic material. There are three different subtypes of poliovirus. The primary route of infection is the fecal-oral route. The virions are very stable and can remain infectious for long periods in food and water.

Glitazones reduce insulin resistance by binding to a transcription factor in adipocytes, thereby reducing thesecretion of fatty acids. Glitazones are taken orally (in pill form). Using pharmacokinetic modeling, deriveequations to describe how the concentration of glitazones varies in the plasma as a function of time. Yourequations should be of the form: dCglitazone /dt = something, or dMglitazone /dt = something. Your model shouldinclude three compartments: the gut, the plasma, and the fatty tissues. Make sure to include a diagram thatillustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables. Do not solve the equations.
Case Study—Ella Review the case study and then answer Parts A through F. Ella has a family history of diabetes. She wants to follow a healthful eating pattern that can lower her risk for developing this condition. Her dietitian recommends a goal of 450 to 600 kcal per meal and advises Ella to follow the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) for carbohydrates and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020, which recommend limiting added sugar. She also recommends that Ella choose whole grains rather than processed grains. Ella decides to pack a lunch to take to work every day. This morning she’s making a sandwich for her lunch.   Categories of Sandwich Options (Top of the screen) Breads Spreads Cheeses Vegetables Proteins Specific food items to select White Bread 6-inches Honey Mustard Provolone LettuceTomatoBell Peppers Turkey Part A - Reading Nutrition Facts Panels for Total Kilocalories   How many total kilocalories are in Ella’s sandwich?   _____…
