Deities and Buddhism The relationship between yogis and Buddhism has, for a long time, existed. This relation is attributed to the fact that the traditions followed in both have a common descent in terms of the area they evolved. Additionally, the terms employed in practice and principles in both have some parallelism; hence, most of their teachings appear identical. Both Buddhist and yogis hold on to the belief that suffering is part of being human and escape from it is inevitable and that only through showing compassion to self and others can one be free of the pain experienced while living, additionally, the yogic philosophy believes in a supreme power, a belief that is similar to Buddhist who trust in the existence of deities and in supreme celestial beings though at varied levels of supremacy.

Prevention of UTI in Elderly Research Problem Recurring urinary tract infections are a high prevalence in adults than it is in children due to the long-term use of antibiotics in adults.  According to Feng and Hokanson (2018), at least one out of three older women experience UTI leading to hospitalization. They include pregnant women, postmenopausal women, and catheter patients. Besides, the increased hospitalization for older adults and women with frequent UTI also leads to increased costs of healthcare as the cost estimates to almost $2.8 from 1998 to 2011 (Feng & Hokanson, 2018).  A bacterium called E.coli is often the cause of UTI, and other factors include the genetic and biologic risk factors like the compromised immune system of the patient.  It is also quite challenging to distinguish between the asymptomatic bacterium and symptomatic urinary tract infection in adults. Several diagnosis and treatment guidelines have been developed to help in the treatment of UTI. However, there is a lack of a single evidence-based approach used for the prevention of UTI in the elderly. It is, therefore, essential to analyze various…

Personal Statement paper             Mental health nursing involves taking care of people with mental disorders and distress. These mental disorders include schizophrenia, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, suicidal thoughts, paranoia, and self-harm. The main reason to why I am applying for this course is because I realized that society needs more psychiatrists. The cases of mental health disorders are increasing, and people do not even seem to realize that they could be having any problem in their behavior.

Academic Writing and Research Skills In observation, the researcher or investigators measure and observes the variables without assigning treatment to such subjects. The treatment given to each variable is beyond the researcher’s control. For instance, suppose an investigator wants to research on the effects of smoking in lung volume in men. The researcher looks for 80 men, 30 of whom have been smoking for a packet of cigarettes for the past eight years. The research will measure lung volume for all the 80 men. After that, the investigator analyzes, interprets, and makes inferences from the data. Conversely, in experimentation, a researcher applies treatments to the subjects such as peoples or animal and then observe the impact of each treatment on each subject unit. Under experimentation, the investigator purely controls the assignment of treatment to subject groups. For example, suppose the researcher wants to find out the effects of smoking on lung volume in men. A researcher finds 80 men, aged 25 and doesn’t smoke currently. Randomly, the researcher assigns 40 men to smoking treatment and the other 40 to non-treatment.…
