READING CHALLENGE 1 QUESTION 3

 3.VITAMIN D Vitamin D is a group of fat soluble vitamins responsible for intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphate.Two major forms of vitamin D exist. Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol), found in plants, is produced by ultraviolet B irradiation of ergosterol and can be consumed as a supplement or in fortified foods. Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), on the other hand, a product of ultraviolet B irradiation of 7-dehydrocholesterol, is synthesised in the human epidermis or consumed in the form of natural (for example, fish) or fortified food sources or as a supplement. Supplementation with vitamin D has been shown to benefit skeletal conditions such as rickets, fractures, and falls,although a similar effect on bone mineral density was not evident in a recent review of trials.A growing body of evidence indicates that vitamin D may reduce risks of a wide range of diseases including multiple sclerosis, autoimmune disorders, infections, and cardiometabolic and cancer outcomes,indicating a pos...

TOBACCO CONTROL IN CHINA In 2003 China joined the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC). The FCTC mandates a comprehensive set of tobacco control policies: surveillance and monitoring of the prevalence of tobacco use, creation of smoke-free environments, treatment of tobacco dependence, taxation on tobacco consumption and other price controls, and enforcement of health warnings on tobacco packages and marketing bans. China increased the tax on tobacco products at the producer and wholesale price level, with an average 11.7% increase in 2009. The tax increase did not, however, translate to higher retail prices experienced by consumers.Of smoke-free environment regulations, only a smoking ban on public transportation has been legislated. China implemented treatment programs for tobacco dependence and to some extent bans on advertising, but these are weakly enforced. Overall, the country profile for China in the WHO 2011 report on the global tobacco epid...

READING PART B,QUESTION NO 1

Mauscular Dystrophies. Muscular dystrophies are monogenetic diseases that are often characterized by the degeneration of both cardiac and skeletal muscle. Gene therapy to correct the mutated gene has shown promise in both animal models and clinical trials; however, current gene delivery strategies are limited to the introduction of the corrected gene into only one tissue. Strategies to target multiple striated muscle types would provide a much-needed improvement for the treatment of muscular dystrophies.  Muscular dystrophies are inherited genetic diseases that are particularly challenging from a therapeutic point of view. As striated muscles are formed by syncytial postmitotic cells that have limited or absent regenerative potential, muscle is not readily reconstructed. Moreover, the human body contains more than 600 striated muscles that are widely distributed, and these muscles control vital functions such as respiration, chewing and swallowing for food intake, and blood circula...

OET READING PART B

 1. The paragraph implies that A) financial implications of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis treatment B) effects of change from acquired to primarily transmitted disease. C) resistance to multidrug-resistant tuberculosis therapy. MULTIDRUG- RESISTANT TUBERCULOSIS. With an estimated 480 000 new cases developing every year,multidrug-resistant tuberculosis is one of the greatest public health challenges worldwide. Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis is much more common in patients who have previously been treated for tuberculosis,and public health efforts have typically focused on high-quality treatment of drug-susceptible tuberculosis to prevent acquisition of resistance while on therapy. However, a substantial proportion of patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis might have transmitted drug resistance (ie, present before treatment begins), and drug resistance is therefore often the cause of treatment failure, not the result. Several studies have illustrated how, as multidrug-re...
