Additionally, there are different expectations that arise depending on one's faith -- certain dogmas strongly insist on certain percentile tithes, others are less rigid. Some ask that members disclose their income, others allow for this to be more private (Allitt, 2005)
Controllable Risk Factors for Lung Cancer: In order to reduce one's risk of developing lung cancer there are a number of controllable risk factors that can be identified and mitigated. Abstaining from the known carcinogens contained in tobacco products, either through cigarettes, cigars, chew, or secondhand smoke, is perhaps the most recognized method available for controlling the risk factors associated with lung cancer (Khan, et al
, 2010). Uncontrollable Risk Factors for Breast Cancer: - A woman's age, sex, family history, genetics, and endogenous exposure to estrogen are all known to cause a predisposition to the development of breast cancer, and each of these risk factors is considered to be uncontrollable (Silverman, et al
.ensure everyone understands the roles each party plays, defining specific tasks as well as detailing realistic expectations and targets everybody can meet during the agreement," (Byrne, 2012)
According to Byrne (2012), "working agreements do not have specifically required elements, they do have many common features." These features include the following four sections: assessment, prioritizing, contracting, and evaluation (Murphy & Dillon 2003)
The left ventricle is almost always implicated with heart failure, but right ventricle heart failure is not uncommon. Furthermore, reduced cardiac output and resulting heart failure is linked to both systolic and diastolic dysfunction (Figueroa & Peters, 2006)
Treatment for heart failure is multifaceted, including lifestyle changes, medications, and in some cases, surgical procedures like angioplasty (American Heart Association, 2016). Medications may include diuretics, beta-blockers, vasodilators, and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (Macon & Cherney, 2015)
Comorbid conditions include angina, hypertension, diabetes, chronic lung disease, and renal dysfunction (Figueroa & Peters, 2006). In the United States alone, close to six million people suffer from heart failure (National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, 2015)
Pathophysiology Congenital defects or preexisting conditions can lead to heart failure, or the inability of the heart to pump blood efficiently or properly to serve the body's needs. "Pressure and volume overload, loss of muscle, primary muscle disease or excessive peripheral demands such as high output failure" are primary pathophysiological causes of congestive heart failure (Parmley, 1985, p
