Lifestyle patterns as predictors of obesity Obesity is one of the significant risk factors for developing metabolic and heart diseases worldwide. As a risk factor to these diseases, obesity leads to poor glucose control in the body, high blood pressure as well as accumulation of abnormal lipids in the blood vessels. The factors are essential to an inadequate supply of blood to the heart, brain, and kidneys that contribute to stroke and heart attack, among other diseases. Also, poor glucose control leads to the emergence of diabetes, a condition that has also been associated with the destruction of kidneys, eyes, the heart, and other organs. Besides, diabetes is considered a significant contributor to premature deaths, mainly due to its complications that include diabetic commas as well as diabetic foot ulcers and infections. Even though there are many causes of obesity and overweight, especially in Saudi Arabia, stress and lifestyle patterns play a significant role in all populations. Hence, the literature review aims at showing how stress and lifestyle changes play a role in increasing the incidences of obesity and overweight…

Present Trends and the Future in Rabies Research The article is titled Present Trends and the Future in Rabies Research and was authored by Campbell, Kaplan, Koprowski, Kuwert, Sokol and Wiktor. Scientists have made notable advances in rabies research since the time of Pasteur by the use of up to date modern virological techniques. The article provides an accurate account of the present state of knowledge of the pathogenesis, cultivation, immunology, tissue culture, cell virus relationships and physiochemical properties of the virus. As of now, it is now possible to study and explore the biology of rabies and information obtained from this work on the problems should provide solutions and the most promising directions to future research. It has reached a point in rabies research where it is critical to developing a balanced scorecard to show what is done and what needs to be covered. Rabies is transmitted usually with the bite of an infected animal. Alternatively, (Campbell) asserts that it can be transmitted through aerosols. However, this mode of spread is present only in a cave. This is why…

Effects of Consumer attitude on Green consumerism Green consumerism is a global activity to reduce environmental degradation. Consumer awareness of ecofriendly products is a comprehensive strategy as it is essential for future human sustainability. The global warming issue is taking up headlines on the media due to its contributing damage to nature. Such an effort is driving companies and citizens to realize the importance of conserving the environment. Green consumerism is often in the limelight creating interest in research of knowledge. Will the consumer attitude on green consumerism reduce environmental degradation? The problem of this research is the awareness of consumers to buy green products. The research paper is going to analyses how the attitude of consumers is going to affect the consumption of green products and their impact on environmental degradation. The research is going to use a literature review on the attitude of consumers towards eco-friendly products and how they perceive green consumerism. The survey will examine the consumption of green products and the rate of environmental degradation through the administration of questionnaires. Quantitative analysis is going to…

The Role of Deep Brain Stimulation in Obesity Cancer may be the fatal ailment of the century, but obesity is also a serious nuisance. Plenty of information is already known about this condition, including its causal factors and prevention, mitigation and treatment measures, but how is the brain involved in obesity? This research seeks to explore “The Role of Deep Brain Stimulation in Obesity.” For the literature review, “DEEP BRAIN STIMULATION” and OBESITY” formed the primary search keywords. Peer-reviewed journals were favoured because of objectivity and reliability while JSTOR, Google Scholar, Academic Search and PubMed were the four databases on which the sources search was conducted. Literature Review Existing literature defines the role of deep brain stimulation in obesity as constructive. Ho et al. (2015), for example, establish that deep brain stimulation is potentially a new therapy for obesity. With the continually expanding knowledge on obesity’s neuroanatomic and the neuropsychiatric groundwork, Ho et al. (2015) acknowledge that there has been amplified attention, and hence, research on neuromodulation as a new therapy for obesity refractory to the existing medicinal, behavioural, and…
