Project: homeostasis living organisms, including you, must maintain a "steady state" or homeostasis. if homeostasis is not maintained, negative symptoms begin to occur and death may even result! objectives research how homeostasis is maintained in a body system. project directions choose one of these human conditions: temperature regulation blood pressure blood sugar oxygen/carbon dioxide levels research the topic, focusing on how homeostasis is maintained for the condition. write an essay summarizing your research. be sure to include the following: what factors can shift this condition requiring feedback and homeostatic processes? identify the organ systems that are involved in the homeostatic processes. what kind of feedback, positive or negative, is used to maintain the homeostasis? for the feedback loop, identify the stimulus, receptor, integrating center, effector, and response. identify any other strategies, such as drug therapies, exercise etc., can be used to maintain balance in this condition. the sources used in your research.

An 88 year-old widow with uterine prolapse and multiple comorbid conditions has been unsuccessful in the use of a pessary for treatment elects to receive colpocleisis (lefort type) to prevent further prolapse and avoid more significant surgery like hysterectomy. the treatment is successful. what are the cpt® and icd-10-cm codes reported for this procedure?

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
