How do you make a stem and leaf diagram?
Let's say you have this data:01021011202130Enumerate the stem of the data.0,1,2, and 3 are stems since it is found first to the left.*Note that two digits like 234 have a stem of23.Enumerate the leaf.0-12 {01 and 02: the leaf are 1 and 2 since they are found first to your right}1-01 {same applies}2-01 {same applies}3-0 {same applies, the leaf is 0 since 0 is found first to the right of 30}There you have it! A stem and leaf diagram.Range formula:highest data-lowest data=rangeSo, 30-1 is 29. 29 is the range.
Which is greater .03 percent or .02 percent?
0.03 percent is greater than 0.02 percent.
Is it true with a Blood Alcohol Concentration of 0.08 the reaction time of the average driver doubles?
A study by the Traffic Injury Research Foundation found that, at BAC levels of .05 to .08, the risk of collision for drivers in the 20+ age group was about twice that of drivers with zero BAC. For young novice drivers (16- to 19 years of age) the crash risk at .05 to .08 was about eight times that of normal drivers! A 1994 research document released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also identifies impairment problems at .02 and states that "virtually all drivers are substantially impaired at .08 BAC. For an idea of how much it takes to reach .08: four beers on an empty stomach in one hour for a 170 lb. man; three for a 137 lb. woman.
Sensitivity analysis?
DefinitionSensitivity analysis determines the effectiveness of antibiotics against microorganisms such as bacteria that have been isolated from cultures.Sensitivity analysis may be performed along with:Blood cultureClean catchurine culture or catheterized specimen urine cultureSputum cultureCulture from endocervixThroat cultureWound and other culturesAlternative NamesAntibiotic sensitivityHow the test is performedColonies of microorganisms are combined with different antibiotics to see how well each antibiotic stops each colony from growing. The test determines the effectiveness of each antibiotic against a particular organism.How to prepare for the testThere is no special preparation.How the test will feelThe way the test feels depends upon the method used for obtaining the specific culture.Why the test is performedThe test shows which antibiotic drugs should be used to treat an infection.Because many organisms continue to show resistance against various antibiotics, sensitivity tests have become more and more important. Your doctor may start you on one antibiotic, but later change you to another one because of the results of sensitivity analysis.What abnormal results meanIf the organism shows drug resistance to the antibiotics used in the test, then those antibiotics will not be effective treatment.What the risks areThe risks depend upon the method used for obtaining the specific culture.ReferencesSmith MB, Woods GL.

Growth chart?
Alternative NamesHeight and weight chartInformationGrowth charts are used to compare your child's height, weight, and head size against children of the same age.Growth charts can help both you and your health care provider follow your child as he or she grows. These charts may provide an early warning that your child has a medical problem.Growth charts were developed from information gained by measuring and weighing thousands of children. From these numbers, the national average weight and height for each age and gender were established.The lines or curves on growth charts tell how many other children in the United States weigh a certain amount at a certain age. For example, the weight on the 50th percentile line means that half of the children in the U.S. weigh more than that number and half of the children weigh less.WHAT GROWTH CHARTS MEASUREYour child's health care provider will measure the following during each well-child visit:Weight (measured in ounces and pounds, or grams and kilograms)Height (measured while lying down in children under age 3, and while standing up in children over age 3)Head circumference -- a measurement of the head size taken by wrapping a measuring tape around the back of the head above the eyebrowsBeginning at age 2, a child's body mass index (BMI) can be calculated. Height and weight are used to figure out the BMI. A BMI measurement can estimate a child's body fat.Each of your child's measurements is placed on the growth chart. These measurements are then compared with the standard (normal) range for children of the same gender and age. The same chart will be used as your child grows older.HOW TO UNDERSTAND A GROWTH CHARTMany parents worry if they learn that their child's height, weight, or head size is smaller than those of most other children the same age. They worry about whether their child will do well in school, or be able to keep up in sports.Learning a few important facts can make it easier for parents to understand what different measurements mean:Mistakes in measurement can happen, for example if the baby squirms on the scale.One measurement may not represent the big picture. For example, a toddler may lose weight after a bout of diarrhea, but will likely regain the weight after the illness is gone.Threre is a wide range for what is considered "normal." Just because your child is in the 15th percentile for weight (meaning 85 out of 100 children weigh more), this number rarely means your child is sick, you're not feeding your child enough, or your breast milk is not enough for your baby.Your child's measurements do not predict whether he or she will be tall, short, fat, or skinny as an adult.Some changes to your child's growth chart may worry your health care provider more than others:When one of your child's measurements stays below the 10th percentile or above the 90th percentile for his or her age.If the head is growing too slowly or too quickly when measured over time.When your child's measurement does not stay close to one line on the graph. For example, a health care provider may worry if a 6-month-old was in the 75th percentile, but then moved to the 25th percentile at 9 months, and dropped even lower at 12 months.Abonormal growth on the growth charts is only a sign of a possible problem. Your doctor will determine whether it is an actual medical problem, or whether your child's growth just needs to be watched carefully.See also:Failure to thriveHydrocephalusMicrocephalyShort statureReferencesKeane V.
