the research’s legitimacy. The process of discarding unqualified scans suggests that the experiment design has taken standard measurements into consideration, improving the reliability of the results. In this case, appropriate statistical data analysis, such as ANOVA, chi-square tests, student t-tests, and Pearson correlations, were applied to ensure the accuracy of the findings. Furthermore, the experiment can be replicated and
Abstract Individuals all over the world suffer with clinical depression, which affect their quality of life. Depression usually affects a person’s emotions, thoughts, behaviors and overall physical health. Symptoms include sadness, guilt, moodiness, loss of interest, with drawling from people, changes in sleep, decrease in sex drive, and thoughts of self-harm or suicide. The common antidepressants take at least a two-week period to take effect; that two-week period is a critical time where a patient
stretching exercises (Chandwani, et al., 2014). Various outcomes were recorded, such as quality of life, depression, anxiety and fatigue in both groups to determine
Sleep and It 's Effects on the Brain Sleep is an essential aspect of life, and though most people tend to enjoy it quite a bit, it is often pushed aside and replaced with wasteful activities. In the past, people used to believe that the soul left the body during sleep. However, today, scientists have discovered that sleep is, in fact, necessary to function normally. When the body 's natural circadian (sleep/wake) cycle is interrupted, one may feel drowsy, moody, unfocused, and distant. On average

cardiovascular health. An individual should sleep for 6-8 hours. A recent suggestion by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommended that an individual should sleep for minimum 7 hours. The quality of sleep is significant to maintain healthy brain functions. Evidence, indicating that good sleep quality is essential for mood and health then duration (Chandola et al, 2010). The researches implied will enable the understanding of the functions of sleep and evaluate the evidence of each of the functions
Dispositional optimism provides real psychological benefits, but it has some limitations and people should not view it as an all-powerful means of treatment. Even though optimism can improve quality of life scores, it cannot heal burns or cure cancer. American culture seems to think that if cancer patients feel pessimistic about their situation, recovery will be impossible, but this is untrue. Jill Jouret, a bioengineering professor at the University
Due to the extensive procedures surrounding treatment, patients often experience a variety of physical and psychological symptoms and side effects that negatively impact their quality of life and ability to cope with and manage an illness. Providing a choice of music during a receptive music therapy session may not only distract the patient from negative affective states, but also may provide a sense of autonomy and control over a patient 's immediate environment. The purpose of the essay was to
A myth is an unproved or untrue belief that is used to justify a social institution. The idea that a positive attitude can stave off cancer is a myth. As humans, we generally want to make sense of the world around us, myths help us to do this therefore they are compelling. Myths arise because we have a desire for easy answers and quick fixes for problems. For example, the idea that if we sleep more we will lose weight is appealing because it is straight forward, therefore people are quick to support
performing optogenetic experiments can take a rather long time and is a very tedious process that follows a strict protocol. Luckily this complicated process as a whole can be broken down into several subdivisions. Although the technique has been refined (and will continue to be refined) greatly over the past 5 years the basic steps are the same. Before taking a look at the steps, knowledge of the two main types of proteins (ion channels) that are used in optogenetic experiments is key. They are:
