Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

29.0K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Endoscopic Procedures II: Colonoscopy

773
The colon, or large intestine, is the final segment of the digestive system. Its primary functions include absorbing water and vitamins produced by gut bacteria and transforming waste from liquid to solid to form stool. In adults, the large intestine is approximately 5 feet long and consists of four main sections:

Rates of Change01:20

Rates of Change

134
The rate of change is a central concept in mathematics that quantifies how one variable varies in response to another. It serves as a foundational tool in modeling dynamic systems across disciplines such as physics, biology, economics, and engineering. Understanding both average and instantaneous rates of change enables the analysis of behavior in functions that describe real-world phenomena.Average Rate of ChangeFor a function f(x) defined over an interval [x1,x2], the average rate of change...

Work Done During Volume Change

5.2K
In mechanics, work is done on an object when the force acting on it displaces the object. In thermodynamics, work done on a system can be estimated when the system's volume changes during any thermodynamic process.
Consider a gas confined to a cylinder fitted with a movable piston at one end. If the gas expands from volume V1 to volume V2, it exerts a force on the piston, such that the piston moves by a distance dr.
The work done by the gas on the piston can be expressed as

Net Change Theorem01:22

Net Change Theorem

76
The Net Change Theorem is a fundamental principle in calculus that establishes a direct relationship between a function’s rate of change and its accumulated change over an interval. Mathematically, it states that the definite integral of a function's derivative over a given interval [a,b] yields the net change in the original function:This theorem has significant applications in various real-world scenarios, including physics, economics, and engineering. A particularly useful application...

What is an Experiment?01:12

What is an Experiment?

19.1K
An experiment is a planned activity carried out under controlled conditions. The purpose of an experiment is to investigate the relationship between two variables. When one variable causes change in another, we call the first variable the explanatory or independent variable. The affected variable is called the response or dependent variable. In a randomized experiment, the researcher manipulates values of the explanatory variable and measures the resulting changes in the response variable. The...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopy
  • Lower Gastrointestinal Diseases

Background:

  • Pediatric colonoscopy has a 30-year history in Korea, demonstrating established safety and effectiveness.
  • Significant advancements in operator skill and experience have refined both diagnostic and therapeutic colonoscopies.
  • Most pediatric gastroenterologists now routinely perform colonoscopies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide practical information on pediatric colonoscopy.
  • To share experiences and observed changes in colonoscopy practices over ten years.
  • To highlight differences between pediatric and adult colonoscopy procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Review of colonoscopy practices over a decade in a tertiary Korean hospital.
  • Analysis of practical aspects including diagnoses, patient management, bowel preparation, sedation, and instrument selection.
  • Incorporation of author's experience and evolving techniques.

Main Results:

  • Pediatric colonoscopy requires tailored approaches compared to adult procedures.
  • Key differences lie in expected diagnoses, patient management, bowel preparation, sedation criteria, and equipment.
  • Continuous improvements in techniques and operator experience enhance procedure outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Pediatric colonoscopy is a well-established and evolving diagnostic and therapeutic tool.
