Investment is the amount of money spent on capital goods. Capital goods are basically fixed assets or fixed factors of production in the economy. They may include machinery, technology, factory buildings and office premises. Investment is an important factor in an economy since it is a major contributor to the Gross Domestic Product of the economy by influencing the economy’s production capacity. Since investment is financed by either savings or borrowed funds, the level of investment available for any economy will be influenced by factors including interest rates, economic growth and investor confidence. Higher interest rates lead to lower investment in an economy. This is because when interest rates are higher, it is more expensive to borrow, thus making borrowed funds less available. Additionally, when interests are higher savings attract better returns in banks thereby leading to unavailability of money for investment. However, in cases where the rate of return on an investment is higher than the interest rate, the prevailing high interest rate will not deter investment into the economy. The economic growth rate of the economy also affects…

Genomics Fellowship: A mind-blowing opportunity I am writing to express my interest in the CERI Fellowship in Genomics & Bioinformatics. As a final-year MSc candidate in Tropical and Infectious Diseases at the University of Nairobi, I am deeply inspired to apply for this fellowship because it aligns with my academic pursuits and professional aspirations. The field of genomics and bioinformatics represents a pivotal frontier in our understanding and combat against infectious diseases. The fellowship presents an invaluable opportunity for me to enhance my skills and broaden my knowledge in these critical areas. I am eager to explore advanced genomic sequencing techniques, bioinformatics tools, and data analysis methods that are essential for unravelling the complexities of disease dynamics. Through this, I hope to gain comprehensive insights into the application of genomics and bioinformatics in disease surveillance, diagnosis, and treatment. Additionally, I aim to develop proficiency in utilizing cutting-edge technologies and computational approaches to interpret genomic data effectively. Upon finishing, I intend to utilize the knowledge and skills I have acquired to contribute significantly to genomic surveillance and bioinformatics analysis in my…

The long-term care of Gabriele and her husband Charles paves the way for what a huge issue arsenic-contaminated drinking water could be on public health. Arsenic, a poisonous material that mostly occurs in nature, could disrupt several organs when it enters the body system by prolonged ingestion. Understanding how Arsenic is acted on and metabolized, recognizing the signs and symptoms resulting from long-term exposure, and targeting organs affected by arsenic toxicity is key.   Post intake of this toxin by contaminated water, Arsenic goes into the body and then distributes to the organs and tissues that constitute the body. The major mechanism of elimination is methylation; that is, inorganic Arsenic is converted into less toxic form organic like monomethyl arsenic acid(MMA) and dimethyl arsenic acid (DMA) and then finally, these compounds are excreted in the urine. One characteristic of this methylation process is that it may not be the same in all individuals; hence, an individual may be more susceptible to arsenic toxicity than the other. Several determinants among these which play a role involve nutritional status, genetic individuality, co-exposure…

The gap identified by McCloskey et al. (2021) The gap identified is that the findings indicate no codes, themes, or quotes relevant in contextualizing the post-conventional stage of the Gillinas ethic of care. The researcher had expectations of the findings based on the theoretical framework. According to Gilligan’s feminist ethic of care, at stage 3, the principle of nonviolence applies whereby individuals approach a holistic view of care involving self-love and love for others. The researcher expected the participants to demonstrate these principles. The findings, however, indicate no codes and themes were established at this stage. The purpose of the significant section The significance section is critical in conveying the relevance and implication of the study to various stakeholders such as scholars, practitioners, and policymakers. McCloskey et al. (2021) advanced the section by first determining the problem to be investigated, for instance, the sex workers’ mothers’ marginalization in health access and mental health due to the prevalent stigmatization of sex work in India. The research then identifies the gap in existing literature to determine what the research will try to…

    Patient Population Benefiting from PCMH Model Population: Chronic Disease Patients (e.g., Diabetes, Hypertension) Chronic disease patients would greatly benefit from the PCMH model because the model emphasizes comprehensive, continuous, and coordinated care. The traditional medical model, however, only addresses health issues when they progress to become acute, while the PCMH model focuses on preventive care and chronic disease management. This proactive approach adopted by PMCH is favorable and ensures that chronic disease patients receive regular monitoring, can seek early interventions, and can opt for personalized care plans. They can significantly improve their health outcomes and quality of life if they desire these options. PCMH has many benefits for chronic disease patients. First, it enhances access to care. With extended hours and same-day appointments, chronic disease patients have more flexibility to seek care when needed. In addition, the availability of telehealth services, which have been instrumental in managing chronic disease patients, allows for remote monitoring and consultations. Telehealth services, therefore, will help reduce the need for frequent in-person visits. Secondly, PCMH enables comprehensive care coordination, enhances patient engagement, and…

According to Fredette et al. (2024), agranulocytosis is rare but is a significant side effect of methimazole among patients with Graves’ disease (GD). Agranulocytosis causes white blood cell count to drop to levels that may be considered dangerous. In addition, patients with agranulocytosis may experience adverse symptoms, including vomiting, rhinorrhea, generalized myalgias, and sore throat (Fredette et al., 2024).…

American soul and R&B vocalist Dennis Edwards Jr. was the frontman of The Temptations for Motown Records. Edwards joined the Temptations after David Ruffin left in 1968, and he worked with them from 1968 to 1976, 1980 to 1984, and 1987 to 1989. In the mid-1980s, he established a solo career and collaborated with Siedah Garrett on the hit song “Don’t Look Any Further” in 1984. Until his death, Edwards was the lead vocalist for The Temptations Review, a Temptations side project. Edwards was born in Fairfield, Alabama, on February 3, 1943, just eight miles from Birmingham. His parents were Idessa Fuller and Reverend Dennis Edwards Sr. They relocated to Michigan when Edwards turned ten. He continued to sing in the church his father pastored, eventually becoming the choir director. When Edwards was younger, he joined a gospel singing group called the Mighty Clouds of Joy. Edwards studied composition and piano at the Detroit Conservatory of Music. When Dennis Edwards learned that Sam Cooke had switched from gospel to secular music in 1961, he started his soul/jazz combo, Dennis Edwards…
