Why are parents so obsessed with their children’s sports? What effect does this have on the child?…

When working with others and their situations they are many laws that have to be abided by to assure that their personal information and safety is protected. One particular act that we have learned about during the last couple weeks was the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Within the act it has give protection their client’s medical records and information to stop it getting to those who have no legal right to them. A law that I have found that I believe to be very important is the CAPTA Reauthorization Act of 2010. This Act is a revised law from the original Child Abuse Protection and Treatment Act (CAPTA) that was presented to us in 2003.

CYP1A2 activity is not affected by nicotine and previous studies suggest high dosage of nicotine treatment has a low potential for communication with parallel CYP1A2 substrates (Hukkanen, et. al 2011). Nicotine has no role in the induction of CYP1A2 that is known to take place in smokers. Smoking is associated with a higher risk of cancer in various tissues, including the stomach, kidney, bladder, and pancreas, that are not in direct contact with tobacco smoke.…
