Toxic Leadership

Locate three information sources related to the ethical dilemma you have selected for your Final Paper Assignment and write an annotation for each. Each annotation should include a summary of the source content, an evaluation of its quality, a consideration of how it compares with other sources, and a general description of how it will be used to inform your final paper.

**** Ethical Dilemma is below***

For my final paper topic I have decided to talk about unethical leadership at work. I have decided to discuss this because it is said that leaders are responsible for 60% of workplace misconduct(Meinert,2014) which I believe to be true. At my current workplace while working on a new project, I’ve noticed the leadership style having a major influence on the quality of work produced in the workplace

Principalism

Principlism, especially in the context of bioethics in the United States, has often been critiqued for raising the principle of autonomy to the highest place, such that it trumps all other principles or values. How would you rank the importance of each of the four principles? How do you believe they would be ordered in the context of the Christian biblical narrative? Refer to the topic overview and other topic study materials in your response.

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Obesity

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING WORD LIMIT REQUIREMENTS:

Please note that each and every assignment has its own word limit.

 

Obesity is the major risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), whereas an excessive intake of alcohol is the main driver of alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD). However, not all obese individuals have NAFLD, and not all individuals who consume large amounts of alcohol develop AFLD. Also, far from all individuals with simple steatosis (the first stage of both NAFLD and AFLD) go on to develop steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, or end-stage liver disease. A large part of this inter-individual variation is due to genetic factors. Some individuals carry susceptibility-increasing genetic variants that make them more vulnerable to developing NAFLD, and to the progression of the disorder. Conversely, some lucky individuals carry genetic variants that protect their livers from the deleterious effects of obesity or alcohol intake. Twin studies indicate that 50% of the risk of fatty liver disease is genetically determined. This heritability estimate is comparable to those of other complex traits such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, or ischemic heart disease. Additional evidence in support of a strong genetic component to NAFLD is the fact that the disorder varies greatly in prevalence among different ethnic groups. Three common (minor allele frequency > 0.05) steatogenic genetic variants with robust and replicable effects have been identified so far: PNPLA3 I148M, TM6SF2 E167K, and GCKR P446L. Together these variants explain less than 10% of the variation in hepatic fat content or approximately 20% of the total heritable component of hepatic steatosis. Thus, the major fraction of genetic variation that contributes to the development of fatty liver disease remains unknown. With only three genome-wide association studies GWAS published so far (two of these based on the same cohort), the field of fatty liver GWAS is still in its infancy. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a complex disease in which genetic variations and environmental factors interact to determine disease phenotype and progression. Progress in the understanding of the genetic risk of NAFLD might offer the unique opportunity to translate this information into clinical practice. However, only a minor fraction of the genetic risk for fatty liver disease has been discovered. Furthermore, the relative importance of genetic and environmental factors will vary between populations depending on background modifier genes, lifestyle choices/challenges, and other factors such as the intestinal microbiome (Stender, Grarup, Hansen, 2019)

The Genetic Determinants of Smoking

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING WORD LIMIT REQUIREMENTS:

Please note that each and every assignment has its own word limit.

 

 

The twin studies are an essential subject in understanding the link between nature/nurture or genetic/environment. Basically, the twin study demonstrates how many environmental factors affect an individual’s likely hood of developing a health condition vs genetics factors contributing to the development of health conditions. For example, through the observation of a set of monozygotic twins, we learned that the development of a certain health condition had an environmental factor of 80% and a genetic factor of 20%. This means, adjusting the environmental factor would reduce the efficiency of the disease attack ratio on the twins.

An example of using a twin study to examine the gene-environment interaction is smoking development in monozygotic twins. The method of study will be a case-parent approach study, which is a study that uses the parent as a control. The premises of the examination are a smoking-addict mother giving birth to a set of monozygotic twins. Due to the financial situation, one of the twins was given up for adoption. Over a course of 30 years, these twins were observed to see if gene or environment would contribute to the development of smoking. The methods used to collect data is a phenotypic measure by noting how many cigarettes per day were smoked and a genotype measure of analyzing the gene to see if the twins have a smoking allele received from the mother.

The data showed that through analysis of the gene, the twins had a smoking allele, therefore, the twins had a 30% risk of developing a smoking habit due to the mother’s gene influence. However, twin one who stayed with the mother had an environmental factor of 40%, such as dieting, high-stress levels, and alcohol (similar to the mother), which activated the expression of the smoking gene. Therefore, this individual had an overall 70% risk of smoking, which was due to gene-environment and this twin was smoking 3-4 packs a day between 20-30 years of age. Whereas, twin 2, because of the 30% gene factor and 0% environmental risk factor (not similar to the mother), this individual had an overall 30% risk of smoking, which they did not smoke. However, if twin 2 had environmental factors that affected the gene expression of smoking (similar to the mother), then there would be a higher risk factor of twin 2 smoking.

Strategic & Salary and Benefits Career

Preparing a Strategic Career Plan

Graduation and certification are the beginning of your career as an NP. Whether you are looking for that dream job or you have decided to open your own practice as an independent NP, you need a plan to get there. Before the Web and social media, job hunting was relatively simple. Job hunters perused the classifieds, made cold calls, and many times just showed up with a resume in hand. There has been a dramatic change in the last decade in how people find and get jobs, and NPs are no exception. For those seeking employment now, there is a wealth of resources available from mega employment websites to specialty blogs. Finding a job as an NP may not be a big challenge, but landing the position that you have passionately prepared for and pursued is going to take some work. A well-crafted cover letter and resume may be necessary items, but it may not be enough to get you exactly where you want to be. With so many opportunities and career trajectories available to NPs today, you need to focus and get serious about what you want to do and where you want to do it.

Directions

In this Assignment, you will develop your own strategic career plan for starting your new career as an NP. There are many steps that need to be accomplished. Use the following guidelines to design your career plan. You do not need to include references. This is a plan that you may layout how you wish. Be creative, and really think about what you desire as a nurse practitioner. As everyone will have different goals, there are no right or wrong answers in this plan.

Determinant of Health Issue

Using the ASTDD definition of “issue brief,” write an issue brief for your assigned determinant of health from the perspective of a supplier, demander, or provider. You should write this as if you were a subject matter expert for a fictitious organization. Based on Chapter 4 in your textbook, the issue brief should be focused on as many steps in the development as possible.

Be sure to include a description of your organization similar to the “About the Policy Center” paragraph on page 6 of the NMCOHPC brief.
