A current problem in modern medicine is the development of drug resistance mutations. This occurs when a mutation arises in a di

sease-causing microbe making it resistant to a drug and thus rendering the drug useless in treating a specific disease. Many useful drugs are competitive inhibitors of specific enzymes, and the drug-resistance mutations prevent the binding of the drug. These types of mutations, in addition to preventing competitive inhibitor binding, can also sometimes reduce the activity of the enzyme. Why is that the case?

Answer:

The reason why drug-resistance mutations reduce certain enzymes activities is due to their inhibition because they cannot give bacterial respond to antibiotics.

Explanation:

In other words, enzymes use a series of specific strategies to overcome the toxic properties of antibiotics that, combined with a resistance agent, completely alter the performance of the drug. In addition, drug-resistance mutations contain fully evaded instruments which complicate the effectiveness of certain antibiotics, for example, penicillin.

Many psychologists believe the disorganized thoughts of people with schizophrenia result from a breakdown in:
Mandarinka [93]

Many psychologists think that the medical model bias has broken down, which is why persons with schizophrenia have disorganized cognition.

Psychologists typically provide mental health and emotional support to patients, but they also do scientific research on the phenomenon of human (and non-human) behavior. They aim to improve these interactions by researching how people interact with both other people and machines. They focus particularly on actions that compromise the mental, emotional, and cognitive functioning of healthy people.

Psychologists use rigorous observation, experimentation, and analysis in their study in accordance with scientific principles. Through their study, they build theories of human behavior and put them to the test. Psychologists' discoveries become a part of the body of knowledge that practitioners draw from when working with clients and patients as this study produces new information.

I got my helix piercing about 4 months ago. It does still hurt a little bit if I ever hit it against something and was wondering
Vlada [557]

You should wait for at least 2 months more as helix piercing takes three to six months to heal normally

What is helix piercing ?

A helix piercing is any piercing at the upper cartilage of the ear. There are different kinds of helix piercings like the standard helix piercing with one hole, double, or even triple helix piercing.

It takes a helix piercing three to six months to heal normally. However, this is just an estimated time based on other people’s experiences after getting one done.

Keep cleaning it twice daily and leave it alone otherwise, don’t use harsh disinfectants or antibiotics on it, and just in case keep an eye out for signs of infection. If you’re unsure about anything, go to a professional piercer for advice. Ideally, that should be the person who pierced you - but if you got it done with a gun
