Sudden unexpected Infant Death Legislation
About 1,500 infants died of SIDS in 2014. SIDS is the leading cause of death for infants aged 1 to 12 months. Unknown Cause. The sudden death of an infant less than 1 year old that remains undetermined because one or more parts of the investigation was not completed. Safe to Sleep CDC is working with the National Institutes of Health in its Safe to Sleep campaign, formerly known as the Back to Sleep campaign.


Sudden infant death syndrome
Sudden infant death syndrome. Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), also known as cot death or crib death, is the sudden unexplained death of a child less than one year of age. Diagnosis requires that the death remains unexplained even after a thorough autopsy and detailed death scene investigation.


Leading Causes of Infant Death
The overall rate of infant mortality in the United States is 6.86 deaths per 1,000 births. This data from the CDC's (Center for Disease Control) National Center for Health Statistics is based on the latest statistics available from 2005.

The Triple-Risk Model describes the convergence of three conditions that may lead to the death of an infant from SIDS. 1  Vulnerable infant. 2  Critical developmental period. 3  Outside stressor(s).


Sudden infant death syndrome
SIDS makes up about 80% of sudden and unexpected infant deaths (SUIDs). Other causes include infections, genetic disorders, and heart problems. While child abuse in the form of intentional suffocation may be misdiagnosed as SIDS, this is believed to make up less than 5% of cases.


Leading Causes of Infant Death
Other congenital defects may need life-long treatment to manage (Down syndrome, heart defects, and others). The most severe congenital defects prove fatal and lead to infant death. In 2005, 5,571 infants died as a result of congenital defects. More Â».


Research on Possible Causes of SIDS
Research on Possible Causes of SIDS. Most scientists believe that babies who die of SIDS are born with one or more conditions that cause unexpected responses to the internal and external stressors common during an infant's life.

Cardiometabolic Risk
Each of these risk factors is dangerous on its own, but a combination greatly increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. Metabolic syndrome, syndrome X, cardiometabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance syndrome are other terms for this cluster of risk factors.


atrial natriuretic factor
pertaining to an atrium. 1  atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) a hormone produced in the cardiac atrium; it inhibits renin secretion and thus the production of angiotensin, and stimulates aldosterone release. Its effect is increased excretion of water and sodium and a lowering of blood pressure, which reduces the workload of the heart.


Hormones Produced By Heart Eliminated Human Cancers In Most Mice Treated
Vesely later discovered three more hormones that are produced from the same gene as ANF. He called them: 1  Long acting natriuretic peptide, which also stimulates urine production and sodium excretion. 2  Vessel dilator which opens the blood vessels and lowers blood pressure. 3  Kaliuretic peptide which increases potassium excretion.


Heart-Brain Communication
Research has shown that the heart communicates to the brain in four major ways: neurologically (through the transmission of nerve impulses), biochemically (via hormones and neurotransmitters), biophysically (through pressure waves) and energetically (through electromagnetic field interactions).


[Atrial natriuretic hormone and endocrine functions].
The atrial natriuretic hormone (ANP) is a cardiac hormone which gene and receptors are widely present in the body. Its main function is to lower blood pressure and to control electrolyte homeostasis. Its main targets are the kidney and the cardiovascular system but ANP interacts with many other hormones in order to regulate their secretion.


Blood Vessels, Ch. 19

Cell respiration and metabolism
In glycogenolysis, glycogen stored in the liver and muscles, is converted first to glucose-1- phosphate and then into glucose-6-phosphate. Two hormones which control glycogenolysis are a peptide, glucagon from the pancreas and epinephrine from the adrenal glands.


Shared Flashcard Set
Cholesterol content of liver is very high, b/c it is the body's major site of cholesterol synthesis and storage. B/c cholesterol is a nonessential nutrient, vegetarians are not at risk of cholesterol deficiency.


Glycogen
glycolysis happens everywhere. Gluconeogenesis happens in the liver cell (cytosol and mitochondrion). glycogen breakdown happens in muscle and liver cells(liver cells require additional enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase to go from glucose-6-phosphate to glucose if not it cannot leave the mitochondrion cell) and muscle. Glycogen synthesis happens in the liver and muscle cells.


Shared Flashcard Set
Indegestible b/c they contain beta-glycosidic bonds, which are resistant to digestive enzymes. Diets that contain this polysaccharide may be beneficial in preventing and treating obesity, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes. Found in a variety of plant foods such as whole grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits.


Shared Flashcard Set
NOTE: the ultimate goal of carbohydrate digestion is the breakdown of large, complex molecules into small, absorbable units - monosaccharides. This process begins in the mouth and requires a series of enzymes produced in various organs, including salivary glands, pancreas, and small intestine.


-
Glycogenesis is the formation of glycogen from glucose. Glycogen is synthesized depending on the demand for glucose and ATP (energy). If both are present in relatively high amounts, then the excess of insulin promotes the glucose conversion into glycogen for storage in liver and muscle cells.


What Is Glycogen?
More About Glycogen. Glycogen is a large molecule produced in the liver and stored mainly in the liver and muscle cells. After we eat more carbohydrate than our bodies can use at the moment, glycogen is made from the leftover glucose.


Shared Flashcard Set
The body stores small amount of glucose in the form of _____, which is found in the liver and skeletal muscles. This polysaccharide is a highly branched arrangement of glucose molecules, consisting of both alpha-1,4 and alpha-1,6 glycosidic bonds.


-
Glucose-6-phosphate is the first step of the glycolysis pathway if glycogen is the carbohydrate source and further energy is needed. If energy is not immediately needed, the glucose-6-phosphate is converted to glucose for distribution in the blood to various cells such as brain cells.


What Is Glycogen?
By Laura Dolson. Updated May 09, 2016. Definition: Glycogen is the main way the body stores glucose for later use. Since most of the carbohydrate we eat ends up as glucose, it's important to be able to store some of it to control blood glucose levels and provide glucose to the parts of the body that need it. Glycogen molecules are that storage.

The 10 NBA players that have scored the most points in one quarter of play
#2 George Gervin and Carmelo Anthony (33 points) On April 9, 1978, The Iceman was unstoppable in the second quarter when he scored 33 points against the New Orleans Jazz. The 33 points was the NBA record for most points in a quarter. Gervin owned that record for 30 years until December 10, 2008.


Highest Scoring Game Ever
Incredibly, the Pistons actually left points on the court. Had they managed to shoot their season average at the foul line, 74.2 percent, Detroit would have won in regulation. Instead, they connected on just 61.6 percent (37-of-60) of their freebies on the night. Most points scored by one team - 186, Detroit.

He's the highest I found, however they didn't start recording play by play data until 2000. So he's almost definitely not the leader because Shaq is about 100 behind and the first 8 years of his career aren't included in that. Not to mention all the players who played before 2000 and don't have any play by play stats.


Highest Scoring Game Ever
by John Maxwell. When it comes to discussions of unbreakable NBA records, the combined 370 points scored in the Pistonsâ 186-184 triple-overtime win over the Denver Nuggets on Dec. 13, 1983, has to be pretty high on the list.


The 10 NBA players that have scored the most points in one quarter of play
The 10 NBA players that have scored the most points in one quarter of play. If you finish the game with 30 points scored, youâve had yourself a pretty good game (and/or you shoot a whole lot). And in scoring 30 or more points, you probably had a couple good stretches of dominance throughout that game.


-
Despite that he was still usually around #1-5 in the league free throw attempts per game in his prime though. #16 all time in attempts. I just figured he was probably up there as a guard who got to the line a ton. Kobe and MJ probably both have more though just from longevity though looking at that top attempts list.


-
Again data didn't start until 2000 so I imagine Shaq has a whole bunch that aren't recorded. And most of the top free throw attempt shooters played before 2000 so there's no way to known for them. Also should be noted that bball ref is defining and ones as field goals made when the player is fouled.


JPEG
A number of alterations to a JPEG image can be performed losslessly (that is, without recompression and the associated quality loss) as long as the image size is a multiple of 1 MCU block (Minimum Coded Unit) (usually 16 pixels in both directions, for 4:2:0 chroma subsampling).


Image size and resolution
Another factor that affects file size is file format. Because of the varying compression methods used by GIF, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF file formats, file sizes can vary considerably for the same pixel dimensions. Similarly, color bit-depth and the number of layers and channels in an image affect file size.

In a prior post, we discussed selecting a filing basis for your trademark application, as either âintent to useâ under section 1(b) of U.S. law or already âin useâ under section 1(a). If you have selected section 1(a), then you must file a specimen showing the actual use of your trademark with your application.


Definitions &Translations
The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality. JPEG compression is used in a number of image file formats. JPEG/Exif is the most common image format used by digital cameras and other photographic image capture devices; along with JPEG/JFIF, it is the most common format for storing and transmitting photographic images on the World Wide Web.


Adding References Manually
Click the âAttach/Remove Specimenâ button to begin the process of attaching the specimen. The specimen must be in either JPG or PDF file format, and there is a maximum file size limit of 5 megabytes per attachment. Note that you may attach more than one specimen, but you are not required to.


Image size and resolution
For example, if you change the resolution of a file, its width and height change accordingly to maintain the same amount of image data. In Photoshop, you can see the relationship between image size and resolution in the Image Size dialog box (choose Image > Image Size).

What does it mean if MCV and MCH are low in a blood test? A low MCV, or mean corpuscular volume, indicates that red blood cells are smaller than normal, while a low MCH, or mean corpuscular hemoglobin, indicates that the hemoglobin in red blood cells is less than normal, states WebMD. These measurements help diagnose different types of anemia. Full Answer >.


Medical Dictionary
In this test, a drop of blood is spread (smeared) on a slide and stained with a special dye. The slide is looked at under a microscope. The number, size, and shape of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are recorded.


What does high MCH blood test mean?
The test used to determine the quantity of hemoglobin in the blood is known as the MCH blood test. The full form of MCH is Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin. This test is therefore used to determine the average amount of hemoglobin per red blood cell in the body. The results of the MCH blood test are therefore reported in picograms, a tiny measure of weight. The normal range of the MCH blood test is between 26 and 33 pg per cell.


-
Answers From Experts & Organizations (1) SUCCESS! A. MCH stands for mean corpuscular hemoglobin. It estimates the average amount of hemoglobin in each red blood cell, measured in picograms (a trillionth of a gram). Automated cell counters calculate the MCH, which is reported as part of a complete blood count (CBC) test. MCH may be low in iron-deficiency anemia, and may be high in anemia due to vitamin B12 or folate deficiency. Other forms of anemia can also cause MCH to be abnormal.


What does high MCH blood test mean?
The MCH blood test result may be low in the case of an individual who is suffering from iron deficiency anemia. However, high MCH blood test results occur when the reading is above 33 pg per cell. A high MCH blood count reading may be associated with a few different conditions. One such condition is known as microcytic anemia which occurs when the individual has a deficiency of vitamin B12 in the body. Another condition that may cause high MCH blood test readings is that of thyroid malfunction.


Medical Dictionary
1 The value is given as a percentage of red blood cells in a volume of blood. For example, a hematocrit of 38 means that 38% of the blood's volume is made of red blood cells. Hematocrit and hemoglobin values are the two major tests that show if anemia or polycythemia is present.  Hemoglobin (Hgb).


What Causes an Elevation of D-Dimer?
The significance of a slight elevation of MCV and MCH levels is an anemic condition of the red blood cells. Anemia is characterized by a low red blood cell count or a deficiency in the hemoglobin in the blood, translating to an oxygen deficient condition for the body tissue.


What is MCHC?
MCHC stands for mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. Itâs the concentration of hemoglobin in the bodyâs red blood cells. MCHC is calculated by automated cell counters and may be reported as part of a complete blood count (CBC) test. The MCHC may be low in certain forms of anemia (such as iron-deficiency), normal in others ([vitamin] B12 deficiency), and high in other blood disorders (hereditary spherocytosis). Falsely high and falsely low results on an MCHC test are common. Doctors only use the MCHC to provide clues or as supporting information, not to make a diagnosis. Many people with abnormal MCHC values have nothing seriously wrong with their blood.

Pituitary Gland â Control And Hormones of Anterior And Posterior Lobe
Posterior Lobe Hormones. Posterior lobe hormones are good examples of neuroendocrine secretion. The posterior lobe stores and releases two hormones: the antidiuretic hormone and oxytocin. Both of these hormones are secreted by neurons that originate in the hypothalamus and extend into the posterior lobe. The hormones are released into the blood within the posterior lobe and are distributed throughout the body.

Overview of Hypothalamic and Pituitary Hormones
Overview of Hypothalamic and Pituitary Hormones. The pituitary gland is often portrayed as the master gland of the body. Such praise is justified in the sense that the anterior and posterior pituitary secrete a battery of hormones that collectively influence all cells and affect virtually all physiologic processes. The pituitary gland may be king, but the power behind the throne is clearly the hypothalamus.


RIXIMKA DUMARKA
Pituitary Gland The pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is about the size of a pea and sits in the small, bony cavity (sella turcica) at the base of the brain. The pituitary gland is divided into two sections: the anterior lobe (adenohypophysis) and the posterior lobe (neurohypophysis). The posterior pituitary is, in effect, a projection of the hypothalamus.

Best and Worst Foods for Your Teeth
Eat for a healthy smile. Prevention is the best medicine for your smile. Although fillings, crowns, and professional whitening can make your teeth stronger and brighter, it's better (and cheaper!) to avoid cavities and stains in the first place, by brushing, flossing, andâlast but not leastâeating right. As the following guide explains, the food we eat can have a big impact on our teeth.


Healthy Foods List: Seven Best Foods for Your Teeth
When it comes to the health of your teeth, you really are what you eat. Sugary foods, such as candy and soda, contribute to tooth decay. One of the first areas to decline when your diet is less than ideal is your oral health, according to the American Dental Association (ADA).


Healthy Foods List: Seven Best Foods for Your Teeth
Like cheese, yogurt is high in calcium and protein, which makes it a good pick for the strength and health of your teeth. The probiotics, or beneficial bacteria, found in yogurt also benefit your gums because the good bacteria crowd out bacteria that cause cavities.


What to eat to keep your teeth
Timing is everything. A diet that promotes good oral health is not just about the foods you eat or avoid â when and how you eat them is equally important. Foods that take a long time to chew or that you hold in your mouth (such as cough drops) can damage teeth as they retain sugar in the mouth longer than do other foods.


The French Paradox
Making these foods a treat rather than a staple will help protect your teeth. To maintain a balanced diet, eat a variety of foods from each of the five major food groups. When choosing a snack, go for nutritious foods such as cheese, raw vegetables, plain yogurt or a piece of fruit.

Most commonly anthers are two-lobed and are attached to the filament either at the base or in the middle portion.he stamens in a flower are collectively called the androecium. The androecium in various species of plants form a great variety of patterns, some of them highly complex. It surrounds the gynoecium and is surrounded by the perianth.

Lesson Summary. The stamen is a very important part of the flower because it contains the male reproductive organs. The stamen is comprised of the filament, which is the long, slender stalk, and the anther, which is at the top of the filament and is where pollen grains are produced.elf-pollination is the more simple method, whereby pollen from the anther of a flower is transferred to the pistil of the same flower. The pollen is often transferred by falling from the anther, which is held above the pistil by the filament, down to the top of the pistil.

More than 4,000 people will receive money from drug maker Boehringer Ingelheim as part of an MDL settlement related to Pradaxa. Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals settled about 4,000 lawsuits that blame the blood thinner Pradaxa for damaging side effects and deadly bleeding.


Pradaxa
The different types of internal bleeding that are involved with Pradaxa lawsuits are GI bleeding, or gastrointestinal bleed, brain bleeding, and severe rectal bleeding. In May of last year, the manufacturer Boehringer Ingelheim, agreed to pay $650 million to settle thousands of lawsuits against its drug Pradaxa. This settlement resolved most of the 4,000 cases in state and federal courts. The company stands behind the safety of Pradaxa and continues to believe the lawsuits lack merit.


-
Bivens filed a claim in March 2012 in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee against Boehringer, alleging that Pradaxa led to the death of her mother, Nancy Brummett. The lawsuit claims that the companyâs aggressive marketing did not take into account patient safety.


-
In a statement released in February 2014, Boehringer Ingelheim maintained: âWe are certain that we can show in the legal cases that we have worked very carefully and responsibly in research, development and marketing of Pradaxa.â


-
Boehringer Ingelheim heavily marketed Pradaxa as safe and effective, so doctors wrote millions of prescriptions for the new blood thinner after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved it in October 2010.


Pradaxa
Pradaxa (Generic: Dabigatran) was approved for use in the United States by the FDA in 2010, and it is a member of a class of medications known as direct thrombin inhibitors. Basically, thrombin inhibitors work by blocking or interrupting one of the bodyâs natural chemical reactions that leads to blood clotting.


-
Among the people who filed lawsuits against Pradaxaâs manufacturer were Berth Bivens, Walter Daumler, Roy Heady, Charles Jackson and Harold Asher. These cases are representative of some of the claims made against Pradaxaâs manufacturer.


-
Users of the blood-thinner Pradaxa and their families sought legal compensation against the drug's manufacturer claiming it caused the following conditions: 1  Gastrointestinal bleeding. 2  Rectal bleeding. 3  Brain bleeding. 4  Heart Attack. 5  Death.


-
More than 4,000 people who suffered damaging side effects from Pradaxa â including gastrointestinal, rectal and brain bleeding â filed lawsuits against Boehringer Ingelheim. Some people filed Pradaxa lawsuits because they didnât want other families to endure the same suffering theyâve experienced.


Pradaxa
It wasnât long after Pradaxa hit the market that allegations of Pradaxa side effects began to arise. 1  Naturally, bleeding is a risk with any medication designed to prevent blood from clotting but there were several reports of serious internal bleeding by people who were depending on this medication.

Why Do Car Makers Recommend âZero-Weightâ Oil?
Why Do Car Makers Recommend âZero-Weightâ Oil? If you are driving a fairly new vehicle or have been shopping for one recently, you may have noticed a number of car companies say their engines are designed to use so-called zero-weight oil.


Understanding Motor Oil Viscosity: Zero Weight, Zero Problem
The viscosity of the oil is measured and given a number, which some people also refer to as the âweightâ (thickness) of the oil. The lower the viscosity rating or weight, the thinner the oil. The higher the viscosity rating, the thicker the oil. Motor Oil Viscosity Rankings.


Why Do Car Makers Recommend âZero-Weightâ Oil?
Feb 22, 2012 2:00 pm ET. If you are driving a fairly new vehicle or have been shopping for one recently, you may have noticed a number of car companies say their engines are designed to use so-called zero-weight oil. The oilâs label typically says â0W-20.â.


Motor Oil Viscosity Grades
For example, a 5W-30 motor oil performs like a SAE 5 motor oil would perform at the cold temperature specified, but still has the SAE 30 viscosity at 210Â° F (100Â° C) which is engine operating temperature.

Re: weight diff between oil and water us gal. by Robert Fogt on 08/26/05 at 01:37:27.


Understanding Motor Oil Viscosity: Zero Weight, Zero Problem
The oil weight is its viscosity index at 100 degrees C (the boiling point of water). Low viscosity motor oils that pour easily at low temperatures typically have a 0W, 5W or 10W rating. There are also 15W- and 20W-grade multi-weight motor oils.


How Much Does a Gallon of Oil Weigh?
Quick Answer. The weight of a gallon of oil depends largely on the oil type. The exact weight can also vary based on what temperature the oil is stored at. Most common oils stand between 7 and 8 pounds, while stored crude oil is around 7.2 pounds per gallon. Continue Reading.


Understanding Motor Oil Viscosity: Zero Weight, Zero Problem
Also, an oil with a lower winter rating like 0W-20 or 5W-20 will contain a higher percentage of thinner base stock oil (which is typically a synthetic oil). This requires more viscosity improver additive to achieve the same high-temperature rating as a 10W-30, 10W-40 or straight 30- or 40-weight oil.

Americans could save a fortune this winter â if they only understood their thermostats
Residential thermostats account for a staggering nine percent of all U.S. energy use. No wonder that according to the Department of Energy, leaving your thermostat set too high can lead to a much higher power bill -- and conversely, setting it back when you're away or asleep can lead to major savings.


What Is the Ideal Temperature to Set Heat to in Winter to Save Money?
Day Time Temperature Setting. Setting the thermostat too high when it is cold outside is the equivalent of tossing money out of the window. The warmer your home is the faster thermal energy will be lost to the outside. The lower the temperature is inside of the home, the slower the rate of thermal energy loss.


What Should Your Thermostat Be Set at in Summer and Winter?
So, what should your thermostat be set at? For a detailed energy assessment of your home that includes recommendations for thermostat use, please contact us at Davis Air Conditioning & Heating. We proudly serve homeowners in Greater Houston and the surrounding area.


Program Your Thermostat for Fall and Winter Savings
The heat turned back on a bit before this so the house would again be 68Â°F for their return. 10:30 p.m.: The whole family has gone to bed (bundled in warm pajamas and snuggled under blankets), and the thermostat is again set to 56Â°F.


-
The temperature of the house is 68Â°F; the heat automatically turned on a bit earlier so it would hit this temperature by 6:30. 7:45 a.m.: The family leaves the house and the thermostat is set to 56Â°F. By turning their thermostat back 10Â° to 15Â° for 8 hours, the family can save 5% to 15% a year on their heating bill -- a savings of as much as 1% for each degree if the setback period is eight hours long.


-
Rules of Thumb for Proper Use: Keep the temperature set at its energy savings set-points for long periods of time (at least eight hours), for example, during the day, when no one is at home, and through the night, after bedtime.


Americans could save a fortune this winter â if they only understood their thermostats
Iâve been studying thermostats for 10 years, or more, and there are still thermostats that floor me, says Therese Peffer, one of the study authors and a researcher at the California Institute for Energy and Environment at the University of California Berkeley.


Save Energy at Home
Through proper use of a programmable thermostat (using the four pre-programmed settings) you can save about $180* every year in energy costs. Keep the temperature set at its energy savings set-points for long periods of time (at least eight hours), for example, during the day, when no one is at home, and through the night, after bedtime. All thermostats let you temporarily make an area warmer or cooler, without erasing the pre-set programming.


Americans could save a fortune this winter â if they only understood their thermostats
There are also numerous myths and misconceptions about how thermostats work and don't work, which may dissuade energy friendly operation. Take, for instance, the idea that if you set the thermostat to a lower temperature at night or when you're out, it takes more energy to warm the home back up again.


What Should Your Thermostat Be Set at in Summer and Winter?
This simple guide to properly using your thermostat will help you to maximize your savings throughout the year. Setting your thermostat during the summer. Generally, our bodies are most comfortable when the air inside of our home is within a degree or two of a steady 75 degrees F during the hot, summer months. This temperature setting, however, is only necessary when your house is occupied during waking hours.

Hormone
The left diagram shows a steroid (lipid) hormone (1) entering a cell and (2) binding to a receptor protein in the nucleus, causing (3) mRNA synthesis which is the first step of protein synthesis. The right side shows protein hormones (1) binding with receptors which (2) begins a transduction pathway. The transduction pathway ends (3) with transcription factors being activated in the nucleus, and protein synthesis beginning. In both diagrams, a is the hormone, b is the cell membrane, c is the cytoplasm, and d is the nucleus.


Sex hormone synthesis, regulation, and function
Sex hormone synthesis is controlled by the pulsatile release of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) At the pituitary gland, GnRH stimulates the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) into the general circulation LH then binds to its target cells (Leydig cells in males and theca cells in females) and increases the expression of steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR)

How does steriod hormones influence protein synthesis? Steroid hormones pass through the cell membrane and bind to a specific steroid hormone receptor protein. The combined steroid and receptor protein then bind to a specifi â¦ c sequence of bases in the DNA molecule. This sequence of bases is part of the promotor of a gene.


Sex hormone synthesis, regulation, and function
Androgen synthesis in males. 1  Androgens are steroid hormones that control the expression and maintenance of male sexual characteristics. 2  Adrenal androgens DHEA and androstenedione are produced in the zona reticulata and zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex.


Hormone Chemistry, Synthesis and Elimination
Two other amino acids are used for synthesis of hormones: Tryptophan is the precursor to serotonin and the pineal hormone melatonin Glutamic acid is converted to histamine


Protein Synthesis
Also, a protein may be used in the cell as a structural component, or it may be released as a hormone, such as insulin. After synthesis, the mRNA molecule breaks up and the nucleotides return to the nucleus. The tRNA molecules return to the cytoplasm to unite with other molecules of amino acids, and the ribosome awaits the arrival of a new mRNA molecule. Figure 10-3 The process of protein synthesis.

Does drinking vinegar make your stomach hurt?
If you soaked meat into a vinegar, you will notice that the vinegar actually cooked the meat, so when you drink it, it's probably trying to cooked those bacteria, phlegm inside.

PEC TEAR
Type 1 ruptures: Surgery is most often recommended for complete tears of the pectoralis muscle tendon. By repairing the torn tendon to the bone, patients have a good chance at returning to high-level sports and activities.


PEC TEAR
Bruising in the chest and arm. This bruising can spread as time passes (days). A dimpling, or pocket, formed just above the arm pit where the rupture occurred. Shoulder pain can occur with chronic tears as the shoulder will compensate for the pectoralis major not having it's full range of motion/strength.


PEC TEAR
There are two parts of the pectoralis muscle, the pectoralis major and the pectoralis minor. The pectoralis major is the larger of the two, and works to push the arms in front of the body, such as in a bench press exercise.


Muscle Strain
Muscle Strain Treatment Self-Care at Home. The amount of swelling or local bleeding into the muscle (from torn blood vessels) can best be managed early by applying ice packs and maintaining the strained muscle in a stretched position.


PEC TEAR
Patients who experience a pectoralis major rupture feel sudden pain, and often a tearing sensation in their chest. Symptoms include: Pain in the chest and upper arm. At time of rupture a tearing sound can be heard, you can compare it to the sound of a towel that is torn.


PEC TEAR
Athletes commonly call this a pec tear but it is more accurately called a pectoralis major muscle rupture. Pectoralis major ruptures are uncommon (we noticed that they are not as uncommon as most authors think!) injuries that occur almost exclusively in men between the ages of 20 to 50.


Sprains and Strains
Symptoms of muscle strain include: 1  Swelling, bruising or redness, or open cuts due to the injury. 2  Pain at rest. 3  Pain when the specific muscle or the joint in relation to that muscle is used. 4  Weakness of the muscle or tendons. 5  Inability to use the muscle at all.


Pulled Chest Muscle Symptoms
Recovery time is a few weeks to a few months. It can be easy to confuse between a chest muscle tendon strain and a small tear. Tears can be, and usually are, debilitating. Sharp, serious pain that keeps you from using the structure.
