Case study 3: Many epidemiological studies showed that breastfed babies get sick less compared to babies who are partially breastfed or not breastfed at all. For example, researchers found that babies who are exclusively breastfed have fewer and less severe infections e.g., they have lower risk of ear, respiratory and gastrointestinal tract infections. Explain these study findings. With references

Question: Can you make an Introduction paper about the given Case Scenario? INFANT WITH TETRALOGY OF FALLOT Case Scenario: Baby Pearl, a 9-month-old girl presents to the emergency department with his mother,who reports episodes of tachypnea, cyanosis, and irritability during feeding. The mother explainsthat these episodes have become more frequent, with baby Pearl becoming more cyanotic aroundthe mouth and fingers especially when crying (tet spells) when she was around 7 months old.These episodes resolve spontaneously but are occurring every few days. The mother breastfeeds every 3 hours, but sometimes takes a long time to feed. She alsoobserved that baby Pearl becomes diaphoretic with feeding, and stops frequently to catch herbreath while feeding. She reported to the nurse that vomiting the milk (sometimes goes out fromthe nose) and becomes more frequent after feeding. The patient currently appears comfortable,with no signs of respiratory distress, fever, or neurological…

Case 1 A 20-year-old man presents for evaluation of a rash that he thinks is an allergic reaction. For the past 4 or 5 days, he has had the "flu," with fever, chills headache, and body aches. He has been taking an over-the-counter flu medication without any symptomatic relief. Yesterday he developed a diffuse rash made up of red, slightly raised bumps. It covers his whole body, and he says that it must be an allergic reaction to the flu medication. He has no history of allergies and takes no other medications, and his only medical problem in the past was being treated for gonorrhoea approximately 2 years ago.

CASE STUDY Background A 'typical' suburban Hill City, Antipolo, family has been stricken by several illnesses during the past several years, most or all of which may have been foodborne illnesses resulting from foods prepared in their home. The Dela Cruz family - father, Wilson age 61; mother, Nimfa, age 35; daughter, Girly, age 12; and son, Boyet, age 10 - can recall three recent episodes that seem to have been food related: 1. Three of the family members began vomiting within 2 hours of eating a meal that included 3day old Dangit Fried Rice. Girly, the only member who did not become ill, had not eaten the Pilaf. 2. All family members experienced repeated diarrhea within 14 hours of eating a winter holiday meal that included a dressed and roasted 4 kg Bantam Chicken.

I. A Case StudyA 30-year-old man was transported to the emergency room with an unexplained fever, headache, and dizziness for the past two days, as well as indicators of dehydration and epistaxis. An initial examination revealed an oxygen saturation of 86%. (95-100 percent ). A positive Dengue IgM/IgG test and a platelet count of 15.0 mm3 are found in the laboratory (150, 000-450, 000 mm3). As a result, the physician gave the patient a blood transfusion and monitored his hydration level. 1. What blood component is most likely to be impacted and exhausted based on the indications and symptoms (headache + dizziness)? 2. What plasma component is most likely to be altered (elevated) physiologically in the setting of dehydration in the patient's case? 3. In the patient's instance, which blood component was most likely decreased when he had epistaxis? 4. In the patient's situation, what type of WBC is elevated? What is the morphology and granularity of the nucleus?
