Pakistan
This document provides an overview of air quality issues in Pakistan. It discusses Pakistan's geography, climate, population, economy, sources of air pollution, current air quality status, impacts of air pollution, and air quality management efforts. The largest cities, Karachi and Lahore, have high population densities and face air quality challenges from industry, vehicles, and area sources like dust. Monitoring data show elevated levels of particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and ozone in major cities. Air pollution is estimated to impose large health costs. The government is working to strengthen standards and management of mobile, stationary, and area air pollution sources, but more remains to be done to address Pakistan's air quality problems.

The document discusses three careers in the health sciences career cluster: pathology, oncology, and health sciences broadly. Pathologists diagnose disease using tissue and fluid samples under microscopes and can earn $100,000-$300,000 annually depending on their education and experience. Oncologists diagnose and treat cancer through chemotherapy, surgery, or other methods, and can earn $150,000-$500,000 per year depending on their role. Careers in health sciences generally offer incomes between $29,000-$150,000+ annually and involve jobs in hospitals, offices, clinics, or colleges working to treat patients and disease.

Doctors help people stay healthy or get better when sick. They examine patients, do tests, and use their medical knowledge to determine what treatment is needed. There are many types of doctors that specialize in different areas of medicine. Doctors must continue learning to keep their skills and knowledge up to date throughout their careers. Being a doctor is rewarding but also involves long hours and ongoing studying.
Surgeon powerpoint
Surgeons perform surgery to treat patients and diagnose medical conditions. They must complete 8 years of education including medical school and a 5 year residency. Surgeons work long hours in hospitals, clinics, or private practices. Starting salaries are around $120,000 with top salaries of $600,000. Technology like computers, x-rays, and medical equipment help surgeons improve patient safety and make procedures easier. While the career offers a good outlook and pay, the document suggests it may not be the best fit for the author due to long hours conflicting with family priorities.

Analysis of a Career in Surgery
INTRODUCTION
A career as a surgeon is long, incredibly difficult, competitive, costly, and one of the most rewarding pursuits you can have in your life. Something not typically mentioned to aspiring pre-medical students is the complicated nature of applying to medical school and residency. Much more is required than just a set of good grades. Volunteer work in the community, leadership and research experience, writing and interviewing skills, are all necessary for a successful application to medical school. All of those things are required yet again, when applying to surgical residency.
Before digging into all those things, let’s look at the definition of a surgeon. The United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statisticsdescribes the surgical profession in the Occupational Outlook Handbook as the following: “Using a variety of instruments, a surgeon corrects physical deformities, repairs bone and tissue after injuries, or performs preventive or elective surgeries on patients.” This is a strict definition however; a more useful outlook would be to focus on what traits lend themselves to becoming a successful surgeon.
There is a useful list created by the American College of Surgeons (ACS), titled, “So You Want to Be A Surgeon: An Online Guide to Selecting and Matching with the Best Surgery Residency,” which aims at current medical students. The guide says that a surgeon should work well as a member of a team; enjoy quick patient outcomes; welcome increasing responsibility; excel at solving problems with quick thinking; be inspired by challenges; and love to learn new skills (American College of Surgeons). The ACS recommends looking into a surgical career if you believe some or all of those traits apply to you. However, there is no such thing as a “standard surgical resident” and the ACS points out that “surgeons are trained, not born.…Becoming a good surgeon is a lifelong process.”
For students interested in pursuing a surgical career, this analysis will explore the education, training, and career of a Surgeon. Information for objective analysis will be taken from multiple sources including article databases, government sources, a personal interview with an orthopedic surgeon, the American College of Sur.

Physician assistant
This document discusses the career of a physician's assistant. It provides a brief history of the profession, noting that PAs were created in the 1960s to address a shortage of primary care physicians. Today, PAs work in many medical settings under a physician's supervision to examine patients, diagnose illnesses, treat minor injuries, and prescribe medications. To become a PA requires a bachelor's degree with science prerequisites, healthcare experience, a competitive GRE score and GPA, and obtaining a master's degree from an accredited PA program. The author is interested in PA programs at Emory University, Baylor College of Medicine, and the Medical University of South Carolina and believes their skills and interests make them a good fit for this growing career.

Doctors
Doctors work to improve people's health by determining illnesses, providing treatment like medicine and advice, and using science to understand what causes sickness. They examine patients, do tests, and consult with specialists as needed. Becoming a doctor requires extensive education and training over 11 or more years, but it is usually a high-paying career.

Megan McLelland is a physician who focuses on primary care and manual medicine. She has a holistic outlook influenced by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, the founder of osteopathic medicine in 1892. Dr. Still opened the first osteopathic school in Missouri after studying alternative treatments and believing orthodox medicine was ineffective. Osteopathic medicine focuses on how the musculoskeletal system impacts health and uses osteopathic manipulative medicine to improve the body's functioning and ability to heal. Today, the majority of osteopathic physicians specialize in family/general practice, and while differences between DOs and MDs exist, their roles are becoming increasingly similar with both licensed in all 50 states.

Introduction to health economics for the medical practitioner
Against a background of increasing demands on limited resources, health economics is exerting an influence on decision making at all levels of health care. Health economics seeks to facilitate decision making by offering an explicit decision making framework based on the principle of efficiency. It is not the only consideration but it is an important one and practitioners will need to have an understanding of its basic principles and how it can impact on clinical decision making. This article reviews some of the basic principles of health economics and in particular economic evaluation.

A DO is a physician who receives a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree and emphasizes a holistic approach to medicine, including osteopathic manipulative medicine. The first DO school was founded in 1892 by Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, who believed orthodox medicine was ineffective. Today, DOs are licensed to practice in all 50 U.S. states and focus on primary care more than other specialties. While the differences between DOs and MDs have lessened over time, DOs still place greater emphasis on preventative health and treating the whole patient. Becoming a DO requires an undergraduate degree with prerequisite courses, the MCAT, and graduation from an accredited osteopathic medical school.

This case report discusses 3 cases of fatalities that occurred during or after dental treatment and examines the importance of accurate diagnosis and understanding a patient's medical conditions. The cases included a patient who had a stroke after a tooth extraction, another who had undiagnosed leukemia, and a third who experienced sudden cardiac arrest during a procedure. Proper patient history, examination, and risk assessment are crucial to prevent fatalities, as dental procedures can expose underlying medical problems. An improved understanding of patient health statuses and risks can help practitioners provide safe care and recommend treatment appropriately.
