A cover page nor abstract page is NOT required.

Discussion question (Instructor)

In Chapter 2 of the text – Managing & Using Information Systems: A Strategic Approach, the chapter discusses why information systems experience failure often because of organizational strategy. A classic example of this type of failure can be seen in the failure of Blackberry. Blackberry phones in the 90’s were the phone to have.

Reply to this Discussion question (800 or more words)

Using the lessons learned in Chapter 2 of the text about organizational strategy and the relationship to information systems failure, analyze the case of Blackberry. You must have 4 scholarly journal articles to support your analysis. Try to find articles that are less than 5 years old. Include one article about the Blackberry failure which will probably be an older article from the news.

Reply to any two of your classmate’s post (300 or more words). You do not need a new reference list with these replies, unless you cite sources not already cited in you original reply to the Discussion question. If so, include all sources cited in one reference list.

A “trimmed mean” drops the highest and lowest extreme values and averages the rest. By trimming the data, we are able to reduce the impact of very large or very small values on the mean, and thus get a more reliable measure of the central value of the set.If we were interested in studying obesity in a small sample size of 10 adult men by looking at their body weights and heights, would you say that trimming the mean is a good idea? Why or why not? What are the advantages of trimming the mean in this situation? What are the disadvantages?75-100 Words please!

Using trimmed mean does not sound like a good idea here. This is so because since the samplesize is quite small and hence the variance between different samples will be large. Sincevariance of…

Hi, I need help with essay on Genetics and breast cancer. Paper must be at least 2500 words. Please, no plagiarized work!

Treatment plans have modified from time to time with the aim to conserve as much as normal breast tissue and reduce the recurrence rates. Different strategies have evolved ranging from modified radical mastectomy to radiation to hormonal and chemotherapy. Having a varied prognosis depending on the histo pathological appearance as well as the grading, staging and receptor status of the breast carcinoma. Early diagnosis and treatment yields better results, while late diagnosis and treatment results in widespread disease.

Breast cancer one of the most common and ancient carcinoma in female occurring most commonly in postmenopausal woman and in individuals with BRCA mutation. The screening, diagnosis and treatment are rapidly changing areas with more and more advances in the diagnostic tests and resulting specific therapies depending on the histo-pathological and bio-markers. From diagnosis to treatment it needs a multidisciplinary approach with physicians, radiologists, oncologists, histo-pathologists on board. This article focuses on the etiological factors, genetic mutation, diagnosis, treatment plans and prognostic factors. . Breast cancers being more common in women but can also occur in men and have a poor prognosis as in men there is always delay in diagnosis as opposed to women. Unlike other carcinomas it can be picked up early as it presents with a lump in the breast, for the same reason it has also been documented as an ancient disease as unlike other carcinomas it could become visible and could be picked up as a lump in breast.

If we look at the above risk factors, most of them can be explained by the fact that excessive exposure to sex hormones can lead to breast cancers. Early onset of menses and late menopause, both of these cases leads to over exposure to sex hormones (same can be explained with obesity). One of the studies being carried out concluded that
