Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which healthy eating behaviors can be developed in Person J.

Introduction: Toddler nutrition establishment is important as it shapes the future health of that toddler as an adult. Unlike infants, the growth of toddlers is comparatively slow and they stop breast feeding slowly and depend on solid foods and other dairy products. The health and eating habits must be established during the toddler’s stage in order to avoid complications in the future. Undernutrition in toddlers will lead them to have decreased cognitive function. It is the duty of parents, grandparents, and the persons who take care of them to ensure that they are well fed and they get adequate nutrition.

    Your patient is a 2-year-old male named Justin. He is suffering from hypotonia (decreased muscle tone), weakness and growth failure, and is unable to walk. His mother has just brought him into the emergency room from the family beach house, where they have been spending the summer, because he has had a seizure. X-rays indicate that the toddler is suffering from rickets, which is a result of a nutritional deficiency of Vitamin D. But his mother insists that her son’s diet is not Vitamin D-deficient. He drinks three glasses of milk a day, and his diet also includes meat and eggs. A simplified scheme of Vitamin D metabolism is shown to the left. The chemical name of active Vitamin D is 1α, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, and it is synthesized via the pathway shown. Catalysts, both in the form of enzymes and ultraviolet light, are required for Vitamin D synthesis. The two main sources of active Vitamin D are diet and sunlight. Food supplemented with “Vitamin D” usually contains…

Mary takes a complete health and dental history. She makes note of the fact that Bob smokes approximately two packs of cigarettes a day, occasional cigars at parties, and drinks two or three beers daily after working in the hot sun. He is concerned about the appearance of his lips and teeth.

    What are Bruces options at this point? Bruce and his parents moved to a semi-tropical region of the United States when he was about 3 years old. He loved to be outside year-round and swim, surf, snorkel, and play baseball. Bruce was fair-skinned, and in his childhood years, was sunburned quite often. In his teen years, he began using sunscreens, and although he never tanned very much, he did not have the painful sunburns of his younger years. After graduation from the local community college, Bruce wanted an outdoor job and was hired at a dive shop. He took people out to one of the local reefs to snorkel and scuba dive. He didnt give a second thought to sun exposure because he used sunscreen. His employer did not provide health insurance, so Bruce did not go for annual checkups, and tried to stay in good health. In his late 20s, Bruce was injured trying to keep a tourist from getting caught between the dive boat and the dock. He went to an internist, who treated his injury and told Bruce he was going to give him a complete physical exam. During the exam, the internist noticed a discolored patch of skin on Bruces back. She told him that she suspected Bruce had skin cancer and referred him to a dermatologist, who biopsied the patch. At a follow-up visit, Bruce was told that he had melanoma, a deadly form of skin cancer. Further testing revealed that the melanoma had spread to his liver and his lungs. The dermatologist explained that treatment options at this stage are limited. The drugs available for chemotherapy have only temporary effects, and surgery is not effective for melanoma at this stage. The dermatologist recommended that Bruce consider entering a clinical trial that was testing a DNA vaccine for melanoma treatment. These vaccines deliver DNA encoding a gene expressed by the cancer cells to the immune system. This primes the immune system to respond by producing large quantities of antibodies that destroy melanoma cells wherever they occur in the body. A clinical trial using one such DNA vaccine was being conducted at a nearby medical center, and Bruce decided to participate. At the study clinic, Bruce learned that he would be in a Phase Ill trial, comparing the DNA vaccine against the standard treatment, which is chemotherapy, and that he would be randomly assigned to receive either the DNA vaccine or the chemotherapy. He was disappointed to learn this. He thought he would be receiving the DNA vaccine.
