54-year-old Jacque Depot, a truck driver who was active, worked out regularly and was in good health, began experiencing occasional impotence. Additionally, he was experiencing urinary problems, where he felt enormous urgency to urinate, but had difficulty producing a urinary stream. Embarrassed, he ignored these symptoms, dismissing them as part of aging.  It wasn’t until he arose from bed one morning and fainted that he made an appointment with his doctor.  By the time he saw his physician, he had been feeling dizzy every morning for a month and had an array of symptoms that convinced him something was seriously wrong. In addition to impotence, urinary problems and dizziness when he stood up, he had double vision, indigestion, diarrhea, and heat intolerance.  

Jacque was referred to a neurologist who ran a battery of tests.  In the end, he was diagnosed with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA).

Answer the following questions:

1.  What is MSA? Which organ systems would you expect to be adversely affected by this disease?  

2.  Describe the autonomic control of micturition (urination), including the functions of the detrusor muscle and the sphincters of the bladder.  Why did Jacque experience urinary urgency, but was then unable to void normally?

3.  Why was he heat intolerant?

4.  A distinguishing characteristic of MSA is orthostatic hypotension.  What is orthostatic hypotension?  Why does this NOT occur in healthy individuals (explain the activity of the ANS that prevents it)?  Why were these responses impaired in Jacque?

Create a 9 page essay paper that discusses Informtion Technology.

Larkin university faces the dual challenge of integrating itself into a university from a diverse group of colleges and at the same time deploying a technology blueprint to launch itself as a modern competitive educational institution.

While traditional thinking may argue that technology deployment is a secondary tool-oriented task, modern approaches to information technology suggest that a sound IT strategy is not only a key enabler for the institutional plan but also an integrated part of it. As a result, “correct technologies” can “enable the required IS and corporate strategies to be achieved” (Clarke, 2001, p. 107).

A failure in an organisation’s IT and IS strategy can translate into a failure for the organisation itself. A strategy for IT is closely aligned and integrated with the institutions overall strategy for growth and competitive advantage.

Organisations typically have a slow response time to change, particularly so in the case of wide scale technology shifts. Larkin University has the unique ongoing challenge of combining existing collages into a university. This challenge could be turned into an advantage by using the new IT infrastructure as the vehicle of change.

Laptops for staff, lecturers and students are just the end user side of the sea change in IT infrastructure and IS strategy taking place at the university. A productivity environment with standardised IT/IS platform and common email would free the users from issues of compatibility and delays in support of disparate systems. An institution-wide Internet availability would allow the university’s intranet to be accessed from anywhere.

This higher productivity environment would enable the staff and lecturers to concentrate on their core functions. Standardised administrative applications such as scheduling, registration, fee, etc. can be deployed across the campus with minimum integration issues. Lecturers and students would interact and have access to their
