Answer to Question 2

Public health also includes the modeling of disease agents, which is best done by computers. One approach to containing infectious disease currently being explored is called syndromic surveillance, which uses health-related data that precede diagnosis and signal a sufficient probability of a case or an outbreak. Syndromic surveillance can be used, for example, in shelters where there are no medical personnel; people can look out for signs and symptoms (e.g., diarrhea) and report them. New York City's syndromic surveillance program looks for unusual patterns of disease inemergency rooms. The federal government uses biosensor detectors in cities to draw in air and analyze it forpathogens to guard against bioterrorism.

Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.

Did you know?

Asthma attacks and symptoms usually get started by specific triggers (such as viruses, allergies, gases, and air particles). You should talk to your doctor about these triggers and find ways to avoid or get rid of them.

Did you know?

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Did you know?

Acetaminophen (Tylenol) in overdose can seriously damage the liver. It should never be taken by people who use alcohol heavily; it can result in severe liver damage and even a condition requiring a liver transplant.

Did you know?

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.
