Upper and Lower Extremity fractures
A hand fracture is a break in one of the bones in the hand, including the small finger bones (phalanges) and long palm bones (metacarpals). Common causes are falls, crush injuries, or sports impacts. Treatment options include casting, splinting, or surgery using pins, plates or screws to stabilize the fracture. Complications can include stiffness or deformity of fingers. Specific types of fractures include boxer's fractures of the pinky knuckle, Bennett fractures of the thumb base, and fractures of the finger bone bases (Busch fractures). Wrist fractures include breaks of the scaphoid bone which can lead to avascular necrosis if missed.
Cervical spine
The cervical spine functions to house and protect the spinal cord, support the head and facilitate movement. It has a normal anterior curvature of 20-40 degrees. Non-palpable structures include the cranium, mandible, and vertebrae. Palpable structures are the superior nuchal line, external occipital protuberance, mastoid process, and vertebral levels C3-C6. Typical cervical vertebrae have transverse processes and spinous processes while C1-C2 are atypical. The intervertebral discs act as shock absorbers between vertebrae. Key joints are the atlanto-occipital and atlanto-axial, which allow nodding and rotation. Ligaments
Circulatory system
The circulatory system consists of the heart, blood vessels, and blood, and is responsible for circulating blood throughout the body. The heart pumps blood through two circuits - pulmonary circulation carries blood to the lungs to receive oxygen, and systemic circulation distributes oxygenated blood to the entire body. Blood delivers oxygen, nutrients, hormones and other substances to cells, and picks up carbon dioxide and wastes. Problems can occur if blood pressure is too high or low or if blood flow is obstructed.
Endocrine DIseases
The document provides information about the endocrine system and endocrine diseases. It describes the key glands that make up the endocrine system, including the pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, pancreas, testes, ovaries, and parathyroid glands. It then discusses several common endocrine diseases affecting these glands, including pituitary adenomas, Graves' disease, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, Cushing's disease, and diabetes insipidus. The causes, signs, and symptoms of each disease are summarized. In general, endocrine diseases result from hormone imbalances or lesions in the endocrine system that affect hormone production and regulation of important body functions.
Verbals
This document discusses verbals, which are verb forms that function as other parts of speech in a sentence. There are three types of verbals: participles, gerunds, and infinitives. Participles can function as adjectives, gerunds as nouns, and infinitives as nouns, adjectives or adverbs. Examples are provided for how each verbal can be used and modified within sentences.
how alkanes affect ozone layer
Methane and CFCs both contribute to ozone depletion and global warming. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that is 21 times more harmful than carbon dioxide. It reacts with chlorine in the stratosphere, protecting ozone, but also attacks ozone directly. CFCs destroy ozone by releasing chlorine atoms when exposed to UV radiation, which then break down ozone molecules. While CFCs have been phased out under the Montreal Protocol, methane emissions continue from sources such as livestock, landfills, and fossil fuel extraction. Both gases trap heat in the atmosphere and are contributing to rising global temperatures.
Acid rain report
Acid rain is caused by sulfur and nitrogen compounds emitted from human activities like burning fossil fuels and industrial processes. These compounds react in the atmosphere to form acids that fall to Earth as rain, snow, or dry particles. Acid rain harms plants and aquatic animals by damaging soils and lowering pH levels in bodies of water. It also corrodes infrastructure like buildings and statues. Areas most affected include Eastern US, Southwestern Canada, and parts of Europe and Asia. Reducing emissions from coal plants and vehicles can help prevent further acid rain damage.

8. 6-chloro-4-ethyl-2-methyl-octanoic acid
9. 2-Butenoic acid
10. C8H15ClO2 (6-chloro-4-ethyl-2-methyloctanoic acid)
11. 3-Methylhexanoic acid
12. Cyclohexanecarboxylic acid
Revolution
The document summarizes key events in the Philippine Revolution against Spain and the emerging conflict between Filipino and American forces after the Spanish defeat. It describes Aguinaldo allying with the Americans and returning to the Philippines to resume the fight against Spain. It then discusses the siege of Manila by Filipino forces and the secret agreement between the Americans and Spanish for a mock battle, excluding Filipinos, before Spain's surrender. This sowed early tensions between Aguinaldo and the Americans over the latter's intentions in the Philippines.
Visual field report
This document discusses visual fields and visual pathways. It defines visual field as the area one can perceive visually when looking straight ahead. It describes lesions along the visual pathway from the optic nerve to visual cortex that can cause different types of visual field defects like hemianopia. It also discusses central and peripheral vision and different methods to test the visual field like kinetic perimetry, static perimetry, confrontation, and automated perimetry.
Nervous
The nervous system is composed of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS contains the brain and spinal cord while the PNS contains nerves, ganglia and sensory receptors. Neurons are the basic functional units that transmit electrochemical signals. The neuron has a cell body, dendrites, axon and synapse. Neuroglia provide support and protection to neurons. The nervous system uses electrical and chemical signals for communication. Neurotransmitters are released at synapses to transmit signals between neurons. While the nervous system has limited regeneration, neurogenesis allows new neurons to form.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
