Here’s astrophysicist Bernard Haisch: “The electromagnetic quantum vacuum is a form of light. It is an underlying sea of energy that permeates every tiny volume of space, from the emptiest intergalactic void to the depths of the Earth, the Sun, and our own bodies. Our world of matter is like the visible foam atop a very deep ocean of light.” Discuss the significance of this description for human physiology and identity.
What are the other names used to denote the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, and why? What neurotransmitter is synthesized in the preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic neurons? What neurotransmitter is synthesized in the preganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic neurons? What neurotransmitter is synthesized in the postganglionic fibers of the sympathetic neurons? What neurotransmitter is synthesized in the postganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic neurons? What are the exceptions that I emphasized in the class about ANS? Would you consider somatic nerve as part of the ANS? If not, why?
The collection, interpretation, and dissemination of data is an important component of community health, as highlighted in Chapter 3. We learned of the various ways of collecting data and displaying it for the general public to analyze. In order to implement successful community health programs that will make an impact, we must collect data from various sources to see how extensive the problem is in the community and subsequently design, implement, and evaluate community health programs to address the problem.
For this week’s discussion forum post, I would like you to search for data sets from the County of Orange, the State of California, and the United States health databases for one of the following diseases.
Find the prevalence rate, incidence rate, and mortality rate for your selected disease at the county, state, and federal levels. Also identify who is impacted the most by your selected disease (ethnic group, seniors, children, etc..) Please summarize your findings and provide any charts or other visual aids to present the data you collect.
Don Hines is a 46-year-old construction worker who has had type 1 diabetes since the age of 13. Over the past 5 years, his kidney function began to fail despite his best efforts to follow a low-protein diet and control his diabetes. He has been on hemodialysis for 2 years while waiting for a suitable donor for a kidney transplant. On Christmas Day, he received a phone call that a kidney was available and he underwent successful transplant surgery. Don is 5 ft 8 in. tall and weighs 175 lb.
1. Don will require high doses of anti-inflammatory immunosuppressive drugs following his transplant. Based on his history of diabetes, why would these medications be cause for concern? What modifications in diet and diabetes medications may be necessary?
2. How would you explain to Don the changes in his diet prescription following the kidney transplant compared to his previous diet while he was on hemodialysis?
3. Why are transplant patients at higher risk for foodborne infections? How would you educate Don about food safety?

The importance of having trauma-informed agencies in the communities. please reflect on a time you or someone you know experienced a type of traumatic event.
What resources were available to you at that time? What resources would have been helpful? Were you or your friend or family member knowledgeable about all community resources prior to the incident? Were there any real or perceived barriers to accessing these facilities?
Were you previously familiar with these resources? why or why not? If you were familiar with the resources, please provide information regarding the agency such as mission statement, preferred treatment modalities (if available), etc. you may utilize the NCTSN website for assistance or google.
while creating this journal, please also document any/all emotions that you experienced.
Also, now that you have started your Community Agency Proposal Project, be sure to record any similarities that you encountered and if you now have a better understanding of the way the organization was operating.
