Which Mouthwash is Best for Killing Oral Bacteria
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page paper outlines a study of mouthwashes in APA format. The use of different mouthwashes can have different effects on oral hygiene, based on their ability to reduce the number of bacteria in the mouth. Because many of these mouthwashes claim to reduce the total number of bacteria in the mouth, this study is designed to consider whether these claims are true. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

William Harvey: Discovery Of Circulation
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Fifteenth century English physiologist William Harvey, whose discovery of blood circulation was central to a proper understanding of the workings of the body, successfully manipulated both the mechanical and quantitative approaches to physiological inquiry in order to prove his theory. This monumental breakthrough set the stage for further physiological exploration and the ultimate determinant that proved Galen's previous theory of rejuvenation to be wrong, but not before much social consternation took place. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

“Bedside Assessment of Heel Lance Pain in the Hospitalized Infant”: A Critique of the Study by Harrison, Evans, Johnston, and Loughnans
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page overview of the procedures and findings in this study designed to provide a quantitative analysis of pain in neonates when undergoing a heel lance procedure. This study is unique in that it evaluates the feasibility of assessing pain among a particular difficult population, newborn infants who can not verbally communicate their pain or allow the researcher any means of utilizing patient self-assessment of pain as can occur in older patients. While some behavioral and physiological manifestations such as facial expression and heart rate were determined to be reliable indicators of pain others such as body movement were found unreliable. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

“Inside the Womb”: A Review of the Article by Madeleine Nash
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page review of an article celebrating the complexity of human life and our understanding of that life. In it author Madeleine Nash traces human development from the point of fertilization of the egg to birth, noting the similarities which exist between human life forms and non-human. Nash’s article, although replete with technical details, manages to captivate the interest of the reader while at the same time instill a scientific understanding of fertilization, cellular development, embryonic maturation, and birth as well as the genetic and prenatal factors which affect those processes. No additional sources listed.

“Muscle protein degradation and exercise”
[ send me this paper ]
An eight page paper which looks at the way in which exercise affects the processes of muscle protein degradation and synthesis, with relation to periods of exercise and recovery. The effects of hormonal imbalances on the rate of protein synthesis are also considered, in terms of the ways in which they affect metabolism and the balancing of nutritional intake.

“Physiological effects of excessive sweating under conditions of extreme cold”
[ send me this paper ]
A five page paper which looks at research into the effects on the human body of sweating in cold temperatures, with reference to the subsequent detrimental impact on several aspects of physiology and the way in which the design of insulated clothing does not always effectively compensate for the negative effects caused by exertion in cold weather conditions.
