Answer:

D. "Sucralfate has a moderate acid-neutralizing capacity."

Explanation:

Sucralfate is used to treat peptic ulcers in combination with other drugs. It reacts with hydrochloric acid in the stomach and forms a viscous material by mechanism of cross-linking. This material has paste like consistency and forms a protective barrier on ulcers by attaching with the proteins on ulcer surface. The barrier does not allow further harm due to action of acid on ulcer. It also does not allow the diffusion of hydrogen ions back into stomach cells. But it is not involved in neutralizing the acid and increasing the pH of stomach. It can show minor antacid activity but that it not considered clinically significant.

Which of the following would be considered permissible under section 1557 and the 2020 final rule
mr Goodwill [35]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the options for this question. However, we can comment on the following.

The statement that  would be considered permissible under section 1557 and the 2020 final rule is "Health insurers under the 2020 Final Rule are not considered to be principally engaged in delivering health care, and thus lines of business that do not receive federal funding or administered under Title I of the ACA, such as life insurance, do not fall under the scope of 1557."

With this adjustment, the Affordable Care Act maintains active the enforcement of legislation about civil rights color, race, gender, Section 1557 does not allow health programs any kind of discrimination. Under this regulation, the Department of Health and Human Services is committed to protecting the rights and dignity of American citizens, as was expressed by the Director of the Office of Civil Rights of the Department of Health and Human Services, Robert Severino.

This measure benefits the American people and maintains an emphasis on the importance of respecting the quality of life and honor of citizens.

One way to manage or cope with stress in your life is to make a list of goals. Think about each of the
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Stress management -- GOALS: I want to develop better skills when it comes to organizing both my working and free time. It's very important to know that when I'm working, I'm working. In order to avoid stress, I would give my 100% percent while working, so I can rest and enjoy my free time, and distance myself totally from the working environment during that period of the day.

2. Increase resiliency when faced with new and unexpected challenges -- GOALS: In order to avoid bad feelings, and awkward situations, I will try and do as many new things as possible. I will be more open minded and I will understand that every new situations is a new lesson. Also, I will exercise more regularly, I will go to the gym, I will swim and I will jog.

3. Manage deadlines -- GOALS: In order to manage my deadlines, I will start writing things down in my calendar. If they are more complex and require more explanation, I will even get a planner, where I can write all the important informations down. I will update it everyday, and that's the best way to keep track of every important task in my daily life.

4. Deal with anxiety -- GOALS: I think that the best way for me to deal with anxiety is to both socialize more, and to have more ME-time. I will go for drinks and dinner with my friends every Friday night. When it comes to me time, I will try and make me a bubble bath 2 nights a week, along with a nice playlist and a glass of bubbly champagne.

5. Cope with loss --  GOALS: It's important to be active when tragic things occur. Bad things happen to good people and it's not something we can avoid. But... We can make it better. In situation like this, it's always better to consume our minds with a little laugh, a friendly face, a partner's kiss or simply a mother's hug. I should not be alone in this period and it's okay to confide in dear people.

6. Maintain a positive self-concept -- GOALS:

When things go bad, it's important to remember all the GOOD things we have achieved. For ourselves, BY ourselves. Always think good of yourself and never let a single soul let you down or make you believe that you're not worth it. When negative thoughts occur, it's important to keep the mind busy, and focus on all the positive aspects of our life.
