The rare tropical virus has been prompting a worldwide concern lately. A number of cases has been increasing and not much has been done to protect our citizens. The Zika Virus is an epidemic on delay, with the worst of the outbreak’s effects trailing in the wake of the mosquitoes that carry the virus. The Zika is mosquito borne virus that has spread rapidly across the world such as the warm parts of Latin America, from Brazil to Mexico and even Puerto Rico. [World Health Organization (WHO), 2016]

Heart disease is not as rare of a disease found in dogs as many think. About 10% of dogs are diagnosed with heart disease at some point in their life (Tudor, 2012). It is not limited to only one breed or size but instead it affects a wide range of canines. There are two main categories of heart disease, congenital and acquired. Congenital is the type of heart disease that is acquired at birth or is in some way hereditary. Acquired heart disease is more common in older animals, or animals with injury

Professor Sophie Sills English 240 December 16, 2011 Should Animals be used for Research During the past ten years, a major controversy over the use of animals in biomedical and behavioral research has arisen. The debate about using animals for medical testing has been ongoing for years. The struggle is usually between animal rights activists and scientist. I believe that animal testing is imperative to the progression of medical cures, procedures and drugs. Scientists have been solving medical

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome The carpal tunnel is a passageway that runs from the forearm through the wrist. Bones form three walls of the tunnel and a strong, broad ligament bridges over them. The median nerve, which supplies feeling to the thumb, index (4th digit), and ring fingers (3rd digit), and the nine tendons that flex the fingers, passes through this tunnel. This nerve, also, provides function for the muscles at the base of the thumb (the Thenar muscles). Usually, carpal tunnel syndrome

Full Blood Count is a test used to evaluate the composition and concentration of the cellular components of blood such as red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, etc. The abnormality it could identify are anaemia which means that there are less red blood cells or less haemoglobin in red blood cells than normal; polycythaemia which means there are too many red blood cells due to various causes; leucopoenia which means there are too few white cells due to various causes; leucocytosis which

consistent supportive evidence that shows increased risk of RA (Firth et al.2008a, Maradit‐Kremers 2007, Wegner 2010). There is little evidence to dictate a common infectious cause of RA, however some pathogenic organisms such as periodontitus, B19 parvovirus or Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) virus may stimulate the disease by activating the B cells to presence antibodies (Wegner 2010). There is inconclusive evidence to suggest that the diet or breast implants play a role in the aetiology of RA (Tugwell
