HOW TO INSTALL ANDROID APPS VIA PC

HOW TO INSTALL ANDROID APPS VIA PC:  Do you have some apps on your PC and you want to install them onto your smartphone without actually transferring the actual apk file? Or you just have some apps like games on the PC and you are offline?  Life becomes easier these days when you have a computer running windows and Smartphone running on android operating system.  In the past, transferring data used to be somehow hard especially when you had to first put the data on sophisticated media like floppy disk of CD/DVD and then things could again be troublesome when the other gadget was not able to read the transfer media.  Thanks to the improvements in technology that now days this whole task can be accomplished with the use of just a smartphone.

So in general there are so many tasks that can be done using just a computer and a smartphone when it comes to electronic data transfer.  But before this happens, you may need learn how to install apps on either the smartphone or on the computer.  There are many ways to install apps on android and among them is the easiest of downloading the app from the play store, because then the app will initiate the installation process automatically.  If you are offline however, you may need some tools to do it for you, for basic users.  Or, sometimes you may have some of your favorite apps already stored on your PC and you would like them onto your smartphone.  In this article I am going to be listing for you some of the best tools for assisting you with the process but before we continue, if you would like to learn installing apps using adb commands, click here.  Also, for some tools, you may be required to activate USB debugging in your smartphone and here is the link in case you don't know how to do it.

BIAS

 

INTRODUCTION:  Bias is a major concern in designing a study because it can threaten the study’s validity and trustworthiness. In general, a bias is an influence that produces a distortion in the study results. Biases can affect the quality of evidence in both qualitative and quantitative studies.

SOURCES OF BIAS:  Bias can result from both the participants and the researcher him/herself however, in most cases it can be prevented by the researcher.  Bias can result from a number of factors, including the following:

1.  Study participants:  Sometimes people distort their behavior or their self-disclosures which may be consciously or subconsciously, in an effort to present themselves in the best possible light.  Take an example you are researching on the behavior of smokers and alcoholics, it may be difficult for the respondents to dispose all the effects of exposure if they are causalities.

2.  Subjectivity of the researcher:  Investigators may distort information in the direction of their preconceptions, or in line with their own experiences.  It will be very common for a researcher to assume the respondents will mention the same difficulty he/she found in a given intervention.

3.  Sample characteristics:  The sample itself may be biased; for example, if a researcher studies abortion attitudes but includes only members of right-to-life (or pro-choice) groups in the sample, the results would be distorted.  On the other hand, it will be hard to generate good results on Circumcision, if in the sample population, the majority are Muslims of from Lumasaba region.

4.  Faulty methods of data collection:  An inadequate method of capturing key concepts can lead to biases; for example, a flawed paper-and pencil measure of patient satisfaction with nursing care may exaggerate or underestimate patients’ complaints.

5.  Faulty study design:  A researcher may not have structured the study in such a way that an unbiased answer to the research question can be achieved.

CONCLUSION:  To some extent, bias can never be avoided totally because the potential for its occurrence is so pervasive. Some bias is haphazard and affects only small segments of the data. As an example of such random bias, a handful of study participants might fail to provide totally accurate information as a result of extreme fatigue at the time the data were collected.  Systematic bias, on the other hand, results when the bias is consistent or uniform. For example, if a spring scale consistently measured people’s weights as being 2 pounds heavier than their true weight, there would be systematic bias in the data on weight.

ENTAMOEBA HISTOLYTICA

 

INTRODUCTION:  Entamoeba histolytica is significant as the causative agent of the worldwide occurring entamebosis, a disease particularly prevalent in warmer countries. The vegetative stages also known as trophozoites of E. histolytica live in the large intestine and form encysted stages also known as cysts, that are excreted with feces.  The infection is transmitted by cysts from one human to another. The trophozoites of E. histolytica can penetrate into the intestinal wall and invade the liver and other organs hematogenously to produce clinical forms of amebosis, most frequently intestinal ameboses also termed “amebic dysentery” and hepatic amebosis frequently called “amebic liver abscess”.  Diagnosis of an intestinal infection is primarily confirmed by detection of the parasites in stool. If an invasive, intestinal or extraintestinal infection with E. histolytica is suspected, a serological antibody test can also provide valuable information.

OCCURRENCE AND PATHOGENICITY:  In endemic areas in Africa, Asia, and Central and South America up to 70–90% of the population can be are carriers of E. histolytica. The causative agent of amebosis is the pathogenic E. histolytica.  The trophozoites colonize the large intestine mucosa or lumen. E. histolytica can disseminate to other organs from the intestinal wall, most particularly to the liver. As a result of the destruction of parenchymal cells, small necrotic foci, so-called abscesses, form and gradually become larger and can even affect major portions of the organ.

EPIDEMIOLOGY:  Humans are the reservoirs for E. histolytica. The infection is due to transmission of mature cysts with contaminated foods especially from fruit, vegetables, drinking water or fecally contaminated hands. Flies and cockroaches can function as intermediaries by carrying cysts from the feces of an excretor to foods. The amounts of chlorine normally added to drinking water are insufficient to kill the cysts.

CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS:  Clinical symptoms can develop as early as two to four weeks after infection with E. histolytica or after asymptomatic periods of months or even years. The acute disease usually begins with abdominal discomfort and episodes of diarrhea of varying duration, at first mushy then increasing mucoid, including blood-tinged, so-called “red currant jelly stools” in which amebas can be detected, including trophozoites containing erythrocytes. In such cases, antibodies are usually present in serum.

Extraintestinal forms:  Extraintestinal forms develop because of hematogenous dissemination of E. histolytica originating in the intestine. The most frequent form is the so-called “liver abscess,” which may develop in some infected persons. Only about 10% of patients with liver abscesses are also suffering from amebic colitis.  

The liver abscess causes remittent fever, upper abdominal pain, liver enlargement, elevation of the diaphragm, general weakness, and other symptoms.  Antibodies are detectable in most cases

THERAPY:  Nitromidazole derivatives are effective against symptomatic intestinal and extraintestinal forms of amebosis. On the other hand, amebicides with only luminal activity are effective against asymptomatic intestinal amebosis.

PREVENTION:  Travelers to endemic areas should decontaminate drinking water by boiling or filtering it, not eat salads, eat only fruit they have peeled themselves and exercise caution when it comes to changing their diet. Chemoprophylactic dugs are not available.

DYNAMICS OF THE HUMAN BODY-SYSTEMS MAKE UP

 

DYNAMICS OF THE HUMAN BODY:  The human body is organized from cells, and a group of cells makeup a tissue.  Then from the tissue level, a collection of tissues makeup an organ.  And then several organs will makeup a system, which will then make the whole human being as seen.  This complexity, involves thousands of chemical reactions and physiological processes and as soon as a deviation evolve form any, then we shall term that pathophysiology or in short, abnormal physiology and that will be regarded as a change from the normal functioning.  

The human body acts pretty like a machine, being made up of different systems each with a unique function, and these systems are interconnected as we shall be seeing in future.  Although we have started with the system level, it is good to note that system before the body systems, there are other body organizations that we shall be discussing later as I have already put forward the order of organization.

First, the human body just like an engine, must have air circulating through it and this is the function of the respiratory system.  It is only when the body tissues get enough oxygen, that energy production will be possible.  But it is not oxygen alone but also, it must get rid of the accumulating carbon dioxide via the same respiratory system.  Otherwise reduced or no oxygen supply will lead to death of body tissues and it is even worse when it comes to brain cells and cells of the heart muscles as we shall be seeing in our discussions relation to such systems.  If you would like to get details of the way air circulates, click on the link below.

As this air enters through the nostrils, it enters the pharynx, to the bronchi, through the bronchioles all the way to the respiratory surface which is a complex network of air sacs where gaseous exchange takes place, and we call these alveola sacs.  

One major component; Oxygen, will be absorbed into the body to be used for cellular respiration by diffusion from the alveola sacs into the blood capillaries.  The end products of oxygen use and energy production then will generate Carbon dioxide, which will be eliminated via the same route from blood capillaries into the alveola sacs.  The respiratory system therefore remains one of the most important and vital systems in life and any compromise in it may result into immediate death of body tissues.

GETTING ALONG OF NUTRIENTS AND CHEMICALS OF LIFE:
  As we have seen, the respiratory system does not work alone, but being in conjunction with the Cardiovascular system, the origin of blood supply and circulation.  The cardiovascular system is simply a combination of the heart as the pump, blood vessels that carry blood and blood it's self.  It is this system that is responsible for transportation of product of the earlier talked of, the respiratory system and other nutrients in the body such as glucose and molecules of metabolism.  Without proper functioning of the Cardiovascular system, the body will be deprived of oxygen and glucose especially the vital organs such as the brain and the individual can easily go into a comma state or what we can call in short, altered level of consciousness (ALOC).

THE ROLE OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM: 
All the systems in the body are essential but not as important as the Central nervous system because, it controls functioning of almost all the others irrespective of whether one is arousable or asleep.  The central nervous system will remain function even when we are asleep in order for the breathing and blood circulation to continue and although our bodies may run out of glucose for some few minutes, the CNS cells will start to die out just after few seconds of hypoglycemia and recovery may not be possible.  You can click here to read more about metabolic profile of organs and then here to read about consequences of hypoglycemia.

Basically, the central nervous system consists of the brain, the spinal cord, and the peripheral nerves.  Unlike in the respiratory system where we are dealing with gaseous exchange and in the cardiovascular system where we are dealing with blood circulation, in the central nervous system we are dealing with the electrical transmission in the body, and generation of nerve impulses is the common scenario here.  We have talked a lot about nerve impulse propagation and transmission in our previous discussion and you can read about them from the link below; Generation and conduction of a nerve impulse.
