Context


As a branch of psychology, contemporary biopsychology studies the relationships between behavior and (mainly) the brain. Before this central hypothesis was established, the popular mind-brain questions raised in history included "What is the mind?" and "Does the mind control the brain or vice-versa?" Numerous scientists, psychologists, philosophers, and other scholars answered these questions differently and developed a variety of theories to explain their rationale.

Action Potential


The brain is part of the nervous system. A particularly important aspect of the nervous system is how neurons "fire," or act to transmit information. This process is known as the action potential and is governed by several different factors, including neurotransmitters and electrolytes.


Action potentials are subject to several laws. For instance, according to the all-or-none principle, an action potential occurs at full strength or not at all. This theory has been a foundation of the studies


of the brain and the theory is widely applied in today's medicine as well as the computer world and the robot industry.
Nature or Nurture?
The relationship between heredity and the environmental influence in shaping behavior has long been the topic of studies.

Motivational Theories
Motivation refers to the set of factors that initiate, sustain, and direct behaviors. Several motivation theories, including instinct theory, drive theory, incentive theory, and arousal theory have been widely applied in psychological practice where they are linked to other theories. For example, recent attachment theory studies examined the circumstances surrounding motivation and behavior in adolescents. In medical practice, drive theory is combined with neuroendocrine theory to understand the relationship between homeostasis and hunger. Understanding the neurobiology of hunger and appetite may ultimately lead to treatments for obesity and eating disorders.
Show More
Emotion
Emotion is an increase or decrease in physiological activity that is accompanied by feelings that are characteristic of the emotion and often accompanied by a characteristic behavior or facial expression. According to the James-Lange theory, emotional experience results from the physiological arousal that precedes it, and different emotions are the result of different patterns of arousal. According to Schachter and Singer's cognitive theory, physiological arousal contributes only
to the emotion's intensity, while the identity of the emotion is based on the cognitive assessment of the situation.
Memory Acquisition
Anterograde amnesia refers to impairment in forming new memories, while retrograde amnesia is the inability to remember events prior to impairment. Anterograde and retrograde amnesia are common learning and memory disorders. They have been linked to damage in certain brai.

1. Axon consists of elongated fibers that extend from the cell body to the terminal endings and aids in transmitting signals. Some axons have a fatty substance called myelin, which acts as an insulator and can transmit signals much faster than other neurons. Axon elongated fibers connect with other cells in the body through the synapses (Stern, Fava, Wilens, & Rosenbaum, 2016)
2.The major components that make up the subcortical structures include the cerebellum, basal ganglia, and the thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary, and brainstem.
The frontal lobe is involved in functions such as planning, attention, problem-solving, judgment, and initiative. The following components play a role in learning, memory, and addiction.
The cerebellum is responsible for motor coordination and learning. The ventral striatum plays a vital role in emotion and learning via connections with the hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex.
The two critical neurotransmitters located in the nigra striatal region of the brain that plays a significant role in motor control is Dopamine and GABAergic neurons (Sonne, 2020)
3.Glia cells are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system and do not produce electrical impulses. Glia cells maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons. Glia cells are divided into two groups, microglia cells and macroglia cells; Macroglia cells can be further divided into astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Microglia cells act as a primary immune defense of the central nervous system, travel and remove damaged substances, pathogens, or other foreign substances. Glia cells also play a role in neurotransmission and synaptic connections and the physiological processes of breathing. Astrocytes are star-shaped glia cells with many functions, including providing nutrient support to the neurons, helping repair damaged nervous system tissue, regulating communication between neurons, and maintaining blood-brain barriers. Oligodendrocytes are responsible for axonal regulation and the generation and maintenance of the myelin sheath that surrounds axons (Hooper & Pocock, 2020)
4. A neuron, referred to as the pre-synaptic cell, releases a neurotransmitter or other neurochemical from special pouches clustered near the cell membrane called synaptic vesicles into space between cells. Those molecules will then be taken up by membrane receptors on the post-synaptic or neighboring, cell hence changing the cell's behavior. Chemicals from the pre-synaptic neuron may excite the post-synaptic cell, for example, telling it to slow down signaling or stop it altogether. Synapses offer the possibility of bi-directional communication; as such, post-synaptic cells can send back their messages to pre-synaptic cells, telling them to change how much or ...

Some of the key topics covered include theories of development, cognition and memory changes across lifespan, nature vs nurture influences, and influences of parents and peers during development. Students are asked to examine developmental issues through analyzing relevant theories and research on multiple developmental domains and stages.
Chapter7-the-whole-brain-theory.pptx
The document discusses the whole brain theory, which proposes that different parts of the brain have specialized functions and abilities. It describes research by Paul Broca, Roger Sperry, Paul MacLean, and Ned Herrmann that identified the specialized roles of the left and right hemispheres, as well as the cerebral cortex, limbic system, and reptilian complex. Herrmann's model divides the brain into four quadrants - analytical, organized, interpersonal, and imaginative - that have distinct learning preferences. The document also discusses ways to improve brain functions, such as exercise, diet, sleep, and reducing stress, as well as elements of an effective personal development plan like goal setting, actions, and assessment.
Biological Bases of Behavior: Parts of Brain
This document discusses several topics related to observing and studying the brain:
- Neuroscientists observe the brain through techniques like phrenology, studying brain injury cases, EEGs, PET scans, and MRIs. These allow observation of electrical activity and brain imaging.
- The brain is divided into sections that control different functions, like the brainstem for basic processes, cerebellum for movement, limbic system for emotion, and cerebral cortex for higher thinking. Specific areas in the cortex control senses, language, and other cognitive abilities.
- Split brain experiments revealed that severing the corpus callosum between hemispheres disrupted communication, showing lateralization of functions like language and visual processing to different hemispheres.
Lesson 2 hemispheric specialisation
The document discusses hemispheric specialization in the brain. It defines hemispheric specialization as the idea that one hemisphere has specialized functions or greater control over a particular function. The left hemisphere specializes in verbal and analytical functions like language processing, reading, writing, and logical reasoning. The right hemisphere specializes in non-verbal functions like spatial thinking, visual thinking, recognizing faces and tunes, appreciating art and music, and fantasy or daydreaming. Both hemispheres are involved in nearly all functions, though there is some specialization. The document then discusses approaches to researching hemispheric specialization like studying people with brain damage or who have undergone split brain operations.

This is a North Central University essay that depicts a literature review outline. The primary purpose of this research inquiry is to determine the extent to which the brain’s natural cognitive processes (TBNCP) such as thinking, remembering, and learning (TRL) relate to the development of adults’ metacognition skills across the lifespan. The hypothesis is that TBNCP such as TRL allow adults’ metacognition skills to increase (with age) naturally. The foundation employs both cognitive science and neuroscience research. The discussion will use the following headings: (1) metacognition and educational neuroscience, (2) metacognition and aging, (3) metacognition skillfulness, and metacognition strategies. The following subheadings will allow for in-depth analysis of subject matters: Metacognition and aging, metacognition monitoring, and problem-solving and outcomes. The essay is written in APA format, includes references, and has been graded by an instructor (A).

IN LOGISTIC REGRESSION MODEL
Bo Hu, Jun Shao and Mari Palta
University of Wisconsin-Madison
Abstract: Logistic regression with binary and multinomial outcomes is commonly
used, and researchers have long searched for an interpretable measure of the strength
of a particular logistic model. This article describes the large sample properties
of some pseudo-R2 statistics for assessing the predictive strength of the logistic
regression model. We present theoretical results regarding the convergence and
asymptotic normality of pseudo-R2s. Simulation results and an example are also
presented. The behavior of the pseudo-R2s is investigated numerically across a
range of conditions to aid in practical interpretation.
Key words and phrases: Entropy, logistic regression, pseudo-R2
1. Introduction
Logistic regression for binary and multinomial outcomes is commonly used
in health research. Researchers often desire a statistic ranging from zero to one
to summarize the overall strength of a given model, with zero indicating a model
with no predictive value and one indicating a perfect fit. The coefficient of deter-
mination R2 for the linear regression model serves as a standard for such measures
(Draper and Smith (1998)). Statisticians have searched for a corresponding in-
dicator for models with binary/multinomial outcome. Many different R2 statis-
tics have been proposed in the past three decades (see, e.g., McFadden (1973),
McKelvey and Zavoina (1975), Maddala (1983), Agresti (1986), Nagelkerke
(1991), Cox and Wermuch (1992), Ash and Shwartz (1999), Zheng and Agresti
(2000)). These statistics, which are usually identical to the standard R2 when
applied to a linear model, generally fall into categories of entropy-based and
variance-based (Mittlböck and Schemper (1996)). Entropy-based R2 statistics,
also called pseudo-R2s, have gained some popularity in the social sciences (Mad-
dala (1983), Laitila (1993) and Long (1997)). McKelvey and Zavoina (1975)
proposed a pseudo-R2 based on a latent model structure, where the binary/
multinomial outcome results from discretizing a continuous latent variable that
is related to the predictors through a linear model. Their pseudo-R2 is defined
as the proportion of the variance of the latent variable that is explained by the
848 BO HU, JUN SHAO AND MARI PALTA
covariate. McFadden (1973) suggested an alternative, known as “likelihood-
ratio index”, comparing a model without any predictor to a model including all
predictors. It is defined as one minus the ratio of the log likelihood with inter-
cepts only, and the log likelihood with all predictors. If the slope parameters
are all 0, McFadden’s R2 is 0, but it is never 1. Maddala (1983) developed
another pseudo-R2 that can be applied to any model estimated by the maximum
likelihood method. This popular and widely used measure is expressed as
R2M = 1 −

States and the federal government should not use private prisons for.docx
States and the federal government should not use private prisons for various reasons. First, most of the private prisons are for-profit facilities. Therefore, they cut on expenses such as lacking enough staffing and resources, which is likely to affect inmates' safety and quality of life. Further, while pro-private prisons note that private prisons save taxpayers' money, studies indicate that they do not reduce costs. For instance, the day to day cost of housing an inmate in 2010 was $53.02 for private prisons compared to $48.42 for a medium-security public prison (Pedowitz, 2012). Also, prisoners do not receive similar kinds of treatment in private facilities. While they may be suitable for the local economy, such as offering job opportunities, lowering costs by private facilities leaves inmates sick and not well cared for (NPR Staff, 2011).

Statement of Interest (This is used to apply for Graduate Schoo.docx
Statement of Interest: (This is used to apply for Graduate School, digital media program)
Length: 2 pages. (500-750 words)
Area of interest in digital media.
-computational arts.
I did a mix media group exhibition in Feb. 2018 called What Makes You You. Half of my show is a sculpture-based installation. The other half is an interactive digital programed art(using Processing software). The visual of human evolution ties these two park together. See details at https://dongpu.weebly.com/what-makes-you-you.html
-short videos (documentary production).
I love shooting short videos. I formed a Youtube team called 2037 Club last year. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmtUQfDMvL9iE8IOy9oshSA
The latest documentary I did is called Liang(Grain). Video Statement：This documentary discovers the Chinese planned economy history period, which starts at the 1950s. People were given a certain amount of coupons to buy food and daily needs because of the limitation of products. Since this is a historical theme, reference images are included to support the concept of buying food today and before 1990. Other than that, the visuals are mainly about common people’s daily routine nowadays. Along with the visual, the most artistic part in this video is Shanghainese dialogue, which explained food coupons in the way of storytelling. “I accidentally found many food coupons in my grandparents’ house this summer, so I went to ask them about the experiences they had with these coupons. My curiosity leads me to the theme.” said by the producer.
This particular video also has a different meaning to me. My Grandmother passed away one week before the video published at the film festival (at Scottsdale Museum of Commemoratory Art). This piece becomes memorable to me, sadly, my grandmother never had a chance to see the whole piece.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD0Y-BXDfnY
-3D animation for games
I learned Maya in an animation course. Like editing videos, I soon full in love with 3D modeling.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGIRxaUdYiY
Business idea, if an applicant has one. It is fine if an applicant is unsure when applying to the program. It is also fine if an applicant is interested in the artistic aspect of digital media and not the entrepreneurial aspect.
I would like to complete a mobile game project in my Graduate studies period and start a game company after graduation. Meanwhile, still active in the art field being an intermedia artist.
Goals or expectations upon completion of the digital media program.
-I want to learn more about computer technologies to create artistic works. Focusing on the field of game development.
-Do more social, get to know people in my field
-Get professional advices of my projects
Here is my cover letter, you can utilize this for the statement of interest.
As a creative and passionate professional with a rich history of developing creative materials, I am eager to submit my resume for consideration for the (Position Title) position .

1. Axon consists of elongated fibers that extend from the cell body to the terminal endings and aids in transmitting signals. Some axons have a fatty substance called myelin, which acts as an insulator and can transmit signals much faster than other neurons. Axon elongated fibers connect with other cells in the body through the synapses (Stern, Fava, Wilens, & Rosenbaum, 2016)
2.The major components that make up the subcortical structures include the cerebellum, basal ganglia, and the thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary, and brainstem.
The frontal lobe is involved in functions such as planning, attention, problem-solving, judgment, and initiative. The following components play a role in learning, memory, and addiction.
The cerebellum is responsible for motor coordination and learning. The ventral striatum plays a vital role in emotion and learning via connections with the hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex.
The two critical neurotransmitters located in the nigra striatal region of the brain that plays a significant role in motor control is Dopamine and GABAergic neurons (Sonne, 2020)
3.Glia cells are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system and do not produce electrical impulses. Glia cells maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons. Glia cells are divided into two groups, microglia cells and macroglia cells; Macroglia cells can be further divided into astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Microglia cells act as a primary immune defense of the central nervous system, travel and remove damaged substances, pathogens, or other foreign substances. Glia cells also play a role in neurotransmission and synaptic connections and the physiological processes of breathing. Astrocytes are star-shaped glia cells with many functions, including providing nutrient support to the neurons, helping repair damaged nervous system tissue, regulating communication between neurons, and maintaining blood-brain barriers. Oligodendrocytes are responsible for axonal regulation and the generation and maintenance of the myelin sheath that surrounds axons (Hooper & Pocock, 2020)
4. A neuron, referred to as the pre-synaptic cell, releases a neurotransmitter or other neurochemical from special pouches clustered near the cell membrane called synaptic vesicles into space between cells. Those molecules will then be taken up by membrane receptors on the post-synaptic or neighboring, cell hence changing the cell's behavior. Chemicals from the pre-synaptic neuron may excite the post-synaptic cell, for example, telling it to slow down signaling or stop it altogether. Synapses offer the possibility of bi-directional communication; as such, post-synaptic cells can send back their messages to pre-synaptic cells, telling them to change how much or ...

It includes discussion questions, assignments, and a final paper on various topics related to lifespan development. Some of the key topics covered include theories of development, cognition and memory changes across lifespan, nature vs nurture influences, and influences of parents and peers during development. Students are asked to examine developmental issues through analyzing relevant theories and research on multiple developmental domains and stages.
Chapter7-the-whole-brain-theory.pptx
The document discusses the whole brain theory, which proposes that different parts of the brain have specialized functions and abilities. It describes research by Paul Broca, Roger Sperry, Paul MacLean, and Ned Herrmann that identified the specialized roles of the left and right hemispheres, as well as the cerebral cortex, limbic system, and reptilian complex. Herrmann's model divides the brain into four quadrants - analytical, organized, interpersonal, and imaginative - that have distinct learning preferences. The document also discusses ways to improve brain functions, such as exercise, diet, sleep, and reducing stress, as well as elements of an effective personal development plan like goal setting, actions, and assessment.
Biological Bases of Behavior: Parts of Brain
This document discusses several topics related to observing and studying the brain:
- Neuroscientists observe the brain through techniques like phrenology, studying brain injury cases, EEGs, PET scans, and MRIs. These allow observation of electrical activity and brain imaging.
- The brain is divided into sections that control different functions, like the brainstem for basic processes, cerebellum for movement, limbic system for emotion, and cerebral cortex for higher thinking. Specific areas in the cortex control senses, language, and other cognitive abilities.
- Split brain experiments revealed that severing the corpus callosum between hemispheres disrupted communication, showing lateralization of functions like language and visual processing to different hemispheres.
Lesson 2 hemispheric specialisation
The document discusses hemispheric specialization in the brain. It defines hemispheric specialization as the idea that one hemisphere has specialized functions or greater control over a particular function. The left hemisphere specializes in verbal and analytical functions like language processing, reading, writing, and logical reasoning. The right hemisphere specializes in non-verbal functions like spatial thinking, visual thinking, recognizing faces and tunes, appreciating art and music, and fantasy or daydreaming. Both hemispheres are involved in nearly all functions, though there is some specialization. The document then discusses approaches to researching hemispheric specialization like studying people with brain damage or who have undergone split brain operations.

IN LOGISTIC REGRESSION MODEL
Bo Hu, Jun Shao and Mari Palta
University of Wisconsin-Madison
Abstract: Logistic regression with binary and multinomial outcomes is commonly
used, and researchers have long searched for an interpretable measure of the strength
of a particular logistic model. This article describes the large sample properties
of some pseudo-R2 statistics for assessing the predictive strength of the logistic
regression model. We present theoretical results regarding the convergence and
asymptotic normality of pseudo-R2s. Simulation results and an example are also
presented. The behavior of the pseudo-R2s is investigated numerically across a
range of conditions to aid in practical interpretation.
Key words and phrases: Entropy, logistic regression, pseudo-R2
1. Introduction
Logistic regression for binary and multinomial outcomes is commonly used
in health research. Researchers often desire a statistic ranging from zero to one
to summarize the overall strength of a given model, with zero indicating a model
with no predictive value and one indicating a perfect fit. The coefficient of deter-
mination R2 for the linear regression model serves as a standard for such measures
(Draper and Smith (1998)). Statisticians have searched for a corresponding in-
dicator for models with binary/multinomial outcome. Many different R2 statis-
tics have been proposed in the past three decades (see, e.g., McFadden (1973),
McKelvey and Zavoina (1975), Maddala (1983), Agresti (1986), Nagelkerke
(1991), Cox and Wermuch (1992), Ash and Shwartz (1999), Zheng and Agresti
(2000)). These statistics, which are usually identical to the standard R2 when
applied to a linear model, generally fall into categories of entropy-based and
variance-based (Mittlböck and Schemper (1996)). Entropy-based R2 statistics,
also called pseudo-R2s, have gained some popularity in the social sciences (Mad-
dala (1983), Laitila (1993) and Long (1997)). McKelvey and Zavoina (1975)
proposed a pseudo-R2 based on a latent model structure, where the binary/
multinomial outcome results from discretizing a continuous latent variable that
is related to the predictors through a linear model. Their pseudo-R2 is defined
as the proportion of the variance of the latent variable that is explained by the
848 BO HU, JUN SHAO AND MARI PALTA
covariate. McFadden (1973) suggested an alternative, known as “likelihood-
ratio index”, comparing a model without any predictor to a model including all
predictors. It is defined as one minus the ratio of the log likelihood with inter-
cepts only, and the log likelihood with all predictors. If the slope parameters
are all 0, McFadden’s R2 is 0, but it is never 1. Maddala (1983) developed
another pseudo-R2 that can be applied to any model estimated by the maximum
likelihood method. This popular and widely used measure is expressed as
R2M = 1 −

States and the federal government should not use private prisons for.docx
States and the federal government should not use private prisons for various reasons. First, most of the private prisons are for-profit facilities. Therefore, they cut on expenses such as lacking enough staffing and resources, which is likely to affect inmates' safety and quality of life. Further, while pro-private prisons note that private prisons save taxpayers' money, studies indicate that they do not reduce costs. For instance, the day to day cost of housing an inmate in 2010 was $53.02 for private prisons compared to $48.42 for a medium-security public prison (Pedowitz, 2012). Also, prisoners do not receive similar kinds of treatment in private facilities. While they may be suitable for the local economy, such as offering job opportunities, lowering costs by private facilities leaves inmates sick and not well cared for (NPR Staff, 2011).

-computational arts.
I did a mix media group exhibition in Feb. 2018 called What Makes You You. Half of my show is a sculpture-based installation. The other half is an interactive digital programed art(using Processing software). The visual of human evolution ties these two park together. See details at https://dongpu.weebly.com/what-makes-you-you.html
-short videos (documentary production).
I love shooting short videos. I formed a Youtube team called 2037 Club last year. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmtUQfDMvL9iE8IOy9oshSA
The latest documentary I did is called Liang(Grain). Video Statement：This documentary discovers the Chinese planned economy history period, which starts at the 1950s. People were given a certain amount of coupons to buy food and daily needs because of the limitation of products. Since this is a historical theme, reference images are included to support the concept of buying food today and before 1990. Other than that, the visuals are mainly about common people’s daily routine nowadays. Along with the visual, the most artistic part in this video is Shanghainese dialogue, which explained food coupons in the way of storytelling. “I accidentally found many food coupons in my grandparents’ house this summer, so I went to ask them about the experiences they had with these coupons. My curiosity leads me to the theme.” said by the producer.
This particular video also has a different meaning to me. My Grandmother passed away one week before the video published at the film festival (at Scottsdale Museum of Commemoratory Art). This piece becomes memorable to me, sadly, my grandmother never had a chance to see the whole piece.

Stateline Shipping and Transport CompanyRachel Sundusky is the m.docx
Stateline Shipping and Transport Company
Rachel Sundusky is the manager of the South-Atlantic office of the Stateline Shipping and Transport Company. She is in the process of negotiating a new shipping contract with Polychem, a company that manufactures chemicals for industrial use. Polychem want Stateline to pick up and transport waste products from its six plants to three waste disposal sites. Rachel is very concerned about this proposed arrangement. The chemical wastes that will be hauled can be hazardous to humans and the environment if they leak. In addition, a number of towns and communities in the region where the plants are located prohibit hazardous materials from being shipped through their municipal limits. Thus, not only will the shipments have to be handled carefully and transported at reduced speeds, they will also have to traverse circuitous routes in many cases. Rachel has estimated the cost of shipping a barrel of waste from each of the six plants to each of the three waste disposal sites as shown in the following table:

The three waste disposal sites at Whitewater, Los Canos, and Duras can accommodate a maximum of 65, 80, and 105 barrels per week respectively. In addition to shipping directly from each of the six plants to one of the three waste disposal sites, Rachel is also considering using each of the plants and waste disposal sites as intermediate shipping points. Trucks would be able to drop a load at a plant or disposal site to be picked up and carried on to the final destination by another truck, and vice versa. Stateline would not incur any handling costs because Polychem has agreed to take care of all local handling of the waste materials at the plants and the waste disposal sites. In other words, the only cost Stateline incurs is the actual transportation cost. So Rachel wants to be able to consider the possibility that it may be cheaper to drop and pick up loads at intermediate points rather than ship them directly. Rachel estimates the shipping costs per barrel between each of the six plants to be as follows:

Abstract
The condition of chronic heart failure sometimes is referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), which is recognized as an acute life-threatening disease that majorly affects millions of American citizens annually. The condition of the chronic heart failure results when the heart is incapable of sufficient pump the blood throughout the body tissues due to the weak heart muscles (January et al., 2019). Certain conditions, such as narrowed arteries in the heart (CAD) or high blood pressure, gradually leave the heart too weak or stiff to fill and pump efficiently. Moreover, there are some of the several conditions such as coronary artery diseases and hypertension that leads to acute and chronic heart failure in the body system. More importantly, to avoid the possibility of this dangerous condition as well as the ever-increasing of the re-admitted hospital continue, collectively, the patient must be able to control the earlier stated conditions along with diabetes as well as obesity at home-based care and with their primary healthcare providers as well. According to Santesmases-Masana et al. (2019), "Primary health care planned care has been shown to reduce heart failure re-hospitalizations and maintain the patient quality of life." With this known knowledge, it is important to continue care at home and with their primary care provider to monitor and detect worsening of their condition sooner rather than later with evidence-based treatment practices. There are many evidence-based treatments for chronic heart failure that includes monitoring of vital signs, weight, and diet along with medications. In this paper, chronic heart failure, problem discussion, PICO question, and theoretical framework will be presented.
Problem Discussion
Chronic heart failure is a chief public health care concern linked with the high degree of mortality and morbidity in the U.S. Heart failure usually results in adverse outcomes, and the most costly is the issues of hospital readmissions. Currently, the heart failure management clinical procedures and pieces of evidence emphasizes the significance and the function of the care interventions a mid preventing the heart failure readmissions in the hospital set up. The current literature review is meant to evaluate and assess the effectiveness of transitional care interventions that intend to minimize hospital readmissions. Increase hospital readmission and worsening chronic heart failure complications are due to lack of following of a primary care provider and home monitoring of vital signs, weight, diet, energy level, and breathing patterns by the patient. There are many evidence-based practices and comprehensive guidelines for chronic heart failure treatment with side effects of some medications about individual races. For instance, losartan has little to adverse impact on blacks. Furthermore, according to Hadidi et al. (2018), "It has been.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
