LEARN TO WRITE IN POINT FORM (BULLET POINTS) IN 3 EASY STEPS

  2. Decide which words/phrases contain the most important information and highlight these words/phrases.

(Mayo Clinic Staff, 2022): “Colon cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the large intestine (colon). The colon is the final part of the digestive tract.

Colon cancer typically affects older adults, though it can happen at any age. It usually begins as small, noncancerous (benign) clumps of cells called polyps that form on the inside of the colon. Over time some of these polyps can become colon cancers.

Polyps may be small and produce few, if any, symptoms. For this reason, doctors recommend regular screening tests to help prevent colon cancer by identifying and removing polyps before they turn into cancer.

If colon cancer develops, many treatments are available to help control it, including surgery, radiation therapy and drug treatments, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

Colon cancer is sometimes called colorectal cancer, which is a term that combines colon cancer and rectal cancer, which begins in the rectum.”

  1. List the highlighted words/phrases using your own wording and expressions wherever possible.

Point form notes:

Colon cancer, colorectal cancer

  • Starts in large intestine
  • Anyone can get it but mostly elderly
  • Begins as benign polyp but may develop into malignant growth
  • Screening tests help prevent
  • Treatment for colon CA: surgery, radiation, chemo, targeted therapy, immunotherapy

      Case Study: Levi Is A 35-Year-Old Man Who Is Hiv Positive. He Works As An

      CASE STUDY:

      Levi is a 35-year-old man who is HIV positive. He works as an auto mechanic. Since learning that he was HIV positive 10 years ago, Levi has been on medications that have stopped the progression to AIDS, and Levi is fairly healthy. However, the emotional toll has been much more serious. Levi has withdrawn from most social interactions. He has not told anyone in his family, and he has fallen away from most of his friends. He has been able to obtain a variety of medications for anxiety, and often takes more than the prescribed dosage. In addition, he has had a cocaine habit that he views as his only area of excitement in life. His pattern of use is on weekends, or sometimes as a "pick-me-up" to get to work. He tends to use the anti-anxiety medications in the evening to help him relax and sleep. He sees his life slipping away in what has come to feel like an increasingly empty lifestyle. He calls a counselor to talk about his problems.

        The use of antibacterial products in hospitals and medical facilities is a necessary and common

        The use of antibacterial products in hospitals and medical facilities is a necessary and common practice in order to prevent the transmission of disease-causing microorganisms. We have seen an increase in the use of these products, such as antibacterial hand soaps, hand sanitizers, antimicrobial wipes and cleaning sprays, and even dishwashing liquids in healthy households.     provide examples of household products that contain antimicrobial compounds and share the potential benefits as well as any potential harm they could cause with overuse. Do you think daily and frequent use of these types of products within a healthy home is a good idea? Should the FDA have banned the marketing of antibacterial ingredients such as triclosan and triclocarban in the majority of household products? After your research, do you think you will increase or decrease your use of these types of products in your home?
