Brain Attack: The Silent Stroke Form
[ send me this paper ]
A 26 page research proposal. The existence of silent stroke has been known for years, but recent findings indicate that it could be epidemic in the US. Silent stroke formerly was believed to have no bearing on whether an individual would later suffer an acute and symptomatic brain attack that possibly could result in lasting disability, but current research indicates that silent stroke is indeed a predictor of subsequent symptomatic stroke. This research proposal reviews the evolution of treatment guidelines, lists risk factors and provides a review of literature addressing silent stroke. Appendix contains a survey instrument and several charts and tables. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Breast Cancer and Hormone Replacement Therapy
[ send me this paper ]
This 20 page report discusses the fact that postmenopausal estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) has been repeatedly linked with breast cancer. Some studies show no increased risk for breast cancer. Others suggest there may be a slight increased risk, while still others say that there is an increased risk, but that it is minimal and occurs only after ten or more years of use. Numerous research efforts that have shown that estrogen use is clearly connected to an increased risk of uterine, endometrial, and breast cancers. However, such factors must be weighed against the fact that estrogen significantly reduces a woman's chances of developing osteoporosis and can act as a defender against cardiovascular disease.

Cancer In-Home Treatment
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. When a medical facility is no longer necessary as a means by which to administer cancer treatment and the patient is moved back home, modern technology has made it possible for laypersons to not only be able to manage the medication on a daily basis but also do many other related tasks that heretofore have only been accessible to hospital nursing staff. However, while providing cancer treatment from the comfort of one's home is a preferred choice for many patients, there is much for caregivers to learn prior to any implementation.

This observation is true both in the species which are present and in what concentrations they are present. Suggests laboratory methodologyfor qualifying and quantifying their presence, as well as linking thatpresence to periodontal disease. Bibliography lists 15 sources.

Cardiovascular Disease
[ send me this paper ]
A 21 page paper discussing the causes of cardiovascular disease and some of the preventive measures that individuals can take for themselves. Not all risk factors - age, sex, heredity - can be prevented, but many others are under individuals' control. The bottom line in prevention of cardiovascular disease is to live by the guidelines of common sense. The human body was not made to survive on junk food, but it thrives with many fruits, vegetables and fiber. Some studies have found that increased fiber, while not directly affecting the cardiovascular system, can nonetheless have a positive effect by tying up some of the cholesterol that otherwise would be floating free in the bloodstream, ready to attach itself to arterial walls. The old adage of "everything in moderation" is particularly applicable to prevention and management of cardiovascular disease. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
