The importance of how disease and illness are conceptualised lies in the fact that such definition is paramount to understand the boundaries and scope of responsibility associated with medical work. In this paper, we aim to provide an overview of the interplay of these understandings in shaping the nature of medical work, philosophically, and in practice. We first discuss the emergence of the biopsychosocial model as an attempt to both challenge and broaden the traditional biomedical model. Then, we outline the main criticisms associated with the biopsychosocial model and note a range of contributions addressing the shortcomings of the model as initially formulated. Despite recurrent criticisms and uneven uptake, the biopsychosocial model has gone on to influence core aspects of medical practice, education, and research across many areas of medicine. One of these areas is adolescent medicine, which provides a particularly good exemplar to examine the contemporary challenges associated with the practical application of the biopsychosocial model. We conclude that a more optimal use of existing bodies of evidence, bringing together evidence-based methodological advances of the biopsychosocial model and existing evidence on the psychosocial needs associated with specific conditions/populations, can help to bridge the gap between philosophy and practice.
Explanation: A long term goal and a short term goal can both be achieved in the future, an unrealistic goal cannot be achieved at all. A realistic goal is the best answer.
If we had mucous on the surface of our skin then our skin would have a thick slippery fluid like substance on it all of the time. Mucuos membranes are present in the digestive tract, mouth, lungs, and more.
Fast glycolytic fibers use anaerobic metabolism to produce energy which is used by the muscle for high tension contraction but these muscles fatigue quickly.
It has amount amount of glycogen and have very quick acting myosin ATPase.
Slow oxidative are known as resistant fibers which generates energy(ATP) by the help of aerobic system.
It depends on the delivery of oxygen and have red fibers which is smallest of all the fibers.
It is found in marathon runners and its main function is to maintain posture.
