Answer: (Medical Xpress)—Asthma is a debilitating condition that kills 250,000 people around the world each year. People with asthma have hyperreactive airways and thickened lung walls obstructed with mucus. During an asthma attack, which could be fatal, airways constrict even further in the presence of a trigger, such as pollen, dust mites or a viral infection. Current asthma therapies treat asthma attacks as immune responses and focus on immune system suppression. However, a study by Dimitri Trankner of Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Virginia and his colleagues, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, shows that sensory neurons control bronchial hyperactivity.

I think that a condition which is related to your lifestyle, environment, and or hereditary that can increase the chance of someone developing a heart and blood vessel disease would be Alzheimer's and Dementia.
First aid is care given to someone before a paramedic arrives so for example.. If you and your friend are out on the trails on atvs and your friend wrecks his/her dirt bike and you are miles from the nearest help what would you do? without first aid your friend could die he/ she has a large deep gash in their thigh. It is bleeding bad and applying pressure isn't helping stop it. You remember something from first aid class that may help but your friend could lose their leg and is very scared. so you would try to calm him/her down reassure them and,then you apply a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. now you take your friend to the nearest help. You just saved your friends life but, if you didn't know first aid he/she could've died by the time a paramedic made it to where you were. That is why is important to know. that is what we were taught in my class it worked we all passed and knew how to apply first aid. hope this helped. :)
