.... of this nation. It is time to consider a true national health-care system, in order to insure that everyone, not just the wealthy, can enjoy good health. As it stands, America is the only civilized country where access to basic health care depends on where one works and how much one is paid. For many well insured people there is debate about our nation¹s stance on the separation between the individual and the state, but the fact of the mater is that if our friend Grant had been born five hundred miles to the North he would still have his teeth and a much brighter future. In Canada, wher .....

.... Medical center who devoted his career to the understanding of how the human immune system recognizes foreign implanted tissue and rejects it. He concluded that the immune system works likes an army with several lines of defense to protect the body from infection by foreign organisms such as bacteria and parasites. This line of defense will also attack a foreign organ. It will do this by gradually causing an ischemic blockage of the organs blood supply, and will be adventally killed off after several days or weeks. This will be followed by cellular and finally chronic rejection. (Aziz, 2000). .....

.... blackness which has overfallen the outer world has also descended upon the inner world of our souls," Cook wrote in his journal on May 16, 1898, "Around our tables . . . . men are sitting about sad and dejected lost in dreams of melancholy. For brief moments some try to break the spell by jokes, told perhaps for the 50th time. Others grind out a cheerful philosophy; but all efforts to infuse bright hopes fail."2 Some believe that light affects the body's ability to make serotonin, a neurotransmitter that helps induce feelings of calm and well being. The eye's sensitivity may also play a .....

.... very possible for one to sanction active euthanasia, and at the same time remain conservative in regards to abortion. It is possible that the dilemmas of birth control and birth selection can extend to the problems of death selection and death control whether by the individual or society. However, the theories of ‘birth’ and ‘death’ are by far two very separate concepts. It is true that birth must occur for death to happen, yet the rationalizing behind each are very different. The physical and mental factors and circumstances involved with abortion are quite separate from the fac .....

.... it's dark. The sunlight prohibits the gland from producing melatonin, so at night, when there's no sun, the sleep-inducing hormone is released into our bodies. Because of the pineal gland and melatonin, humans have known to sleep at night and wake during the day since long before the age of alarm clocks. Humans don't produce melatotin right from birth; it is transfered in utero to babies through the placenta. For their first few days of life, babies still have to receive it from breast milk. Our levels of melatonin peak during childhood, then decrease at the beginning of puberty, s .....

.... (CTV News 11:00 p.m. January 6, 1997.) These might have been able to be prevented if communities would assume their roles and discuss it on a regular basis and not have suicide be a word that is whispered but never spoken. The myth that those who talk about suicide will never actually go through with it is completely false. Most people who do kill themselves give some sort of clue before doing so. It may be something very subtle such as “I wonder where my father keeps his gun” or they might just come right out and say “ I would rather die then go on living this way.” What ever i .....

.... most of the body's adverse symptoms. (JAMA, 11/26/82) Since the most life threatening reactions usually involve the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, that is where emergency treatment is focused. In the cardiovascular system, a combination of vasodilatation, increased vascular permeability, tachcycardia, and arrhythmias can lead to severe hypotension. In the respiratory system, the swelling of tissues along with bronchospasm and increased mucus production are the main cause of death. So, if untreated, anaphylaxis can be fatal as a result of the body's going into what is essentia .....

.... Now, doctors believe they have found a gene that causes eczema, but since it is not present in all cases of eczema, they believe that there is more than one gene that can cause eczema. Also, a maternal pattern of inheritance has been discovered. Doctors and researchers believe that this maternal inheritance pattern is due to modification in the immune responses in utero, or via breast milk. CAN ECZEMA BE CURED? There is no way to absolutely “cure” eczema although, many treatments have been found to be effective. Now, with the wonderful discovery of one of the genes that may cause .....

.... develops between operator and subject. The responses of subjects in the trance state, and the phenomena or behavior they manifest objectively, are the product of their motivational set; that is, behavior reflects what is being sought from the experience. Most people can be easily hypnotized. The depth of trance, however, will vary from a light state close to waking, to a profound state of somnambulism. A profound trance is characterized by a forgetting of trance events and by an ability to respond automatically to posthypnotic suggestions that are not too anxiety-provoking. The depth of tr .....

About one third of cases come with a previous family history. Women with a hemophilic gene are called carriers while men are either cs or normal.
