Binge-Eating: A Life-Threatening Eating Disorder
Get PDFThis study deals with binge-eating (BE) that is a deeper negative psychological problem and a severe life-threatening eating disorder, which is characterized by eating large quantities of food within a short period of time; with a feeling of a loss of control during the eating. Binge-eating is seen common among both genders of obese people; and also common among students and irrespective of smokers and non-smokers. A person of binge-eating faces difficulties in working life, social life, and relationships. S/he often feels guilty, also disgusted and embarrassed after eating. Actually binge-eating ultimately damages well-beings of sufferers. Early detection and evidence-based treatment can recover the binge-eating patients
Ponderal Index: An Important Anthropometric Indicator for Physical Growth
Get PDFThe Ponderal Index (PI) is an essential measure to study physical growth of fetus, infants, newborn babies, adolescents, and adults. Lower PI is found among the malnourish infants and newborn babies and higher in obese ones. PI is also applied in maternity treatment to detect impaired fetal growth. Neonatal PI is essential to identify the effects of gestation age, sex, and maternal parity. In this study aspects of Ponderal Index (PI) are discussed to increase the measurement area for the reduction of risk factors of the infants and children morbidity and mortality
Historical View of Diabetics Mellitus: From Ancient Egyptian Polyuria to Discovery of Insulin
Get PDFHistory is the pioneer of all researches and developments, and the history of diabetes has its beginnings in antiquity about over three millennia. Diabetes mellitus is one of the oldest diseases from the human civilization. Also it is one of the most studied diseases in the history of medicine. Main symptoms of this disease are hyperglycaemia, excessive thirsty, increased appetite, gradual loss of body weight, and continuous passing of huge honey-sweet urine that often drew ants. The disease causes either for inadequate insulin production, or for the body cells do not respond properly to insulin, or both. Descriptions of diabetes mellitus have been found in the Egyptian Papyri, in ancient Indian and Chinese medical literature, and in the works of ancient Greek and Arab physicians. In the 17th century works of Thomas Willis; in the 19th century, the glycogenic action of the liver is done by French physiologist Claude Bernard; famous experiment of removing the pancreas from a dog and producing severe and fatal diabetes are performed by Oskar Minkowski and Joseph von Mering; and finally in the 19th century, isolation of insulin from pancreatic islets is done by Frederick Banting and Charles Best to save diabetes patients from the suffering from diabetes. These are the roots of all achievements in favor of welfare of diabetes patients. At present the prevalence of diabetes is very high worldwide, and is increasing day by day. In this study historical points of diabetes are highlighted for the awareness of this disease
Mathematical Analysis of an Industry When Cost of Principal Raw Materials Increase: A Nonlinear Budget Constraint Attempt
Get PDFDuring profit maximization procedure an industry faces various difficulties; and increase of cost of principal raw material is one of them that happen frequently. In this study an attempt is taken to discuss economic effects on various inputs when the cost of principal raw material is increased. The economic sensitivity analysis of various inputs on the basis of principal raw material is an essential step for an industry when the industry is on the profit maximization track. This article deals with four variable inputs, such as capital, labor, principal raw materials, and irregular inputs of an industry, where nonlinear budget constraint is considered. This study stresses on mathematical formalities to show the economic predictions scientifically
Sensitivity Analysis among Commodities and Prices: A Utility Maximization Perception
Get PDFUtility maximization policy is essential for the sustainability of the firms and organizations. In this article, two Lagrangian multipliers are used to perform the research successfully. Moreover, the paper takes attempts to run with four commodities and two constraints, such as budget constraint, and coupon constraint. In the study, both Hessian and Jacobian are used to show the mathematical calculations precisely and concisely. The sensitivity analysis among two commodities and one price unit of commodity are included in this paper for forecasting on the economic model during the utility maximization procedure
Sensitivity Analysis for Utility Maximization: A Study on Lagrange Multipliers and Commodity Coupons
Get PDFIn this study sensitivity analysis among Lagrange multipliers and commodity coupons is discussed with detailed mathematical analysis. In economics, utility maximization method is essential for increasing sustainable production and profit maximization. Two types of constraints, such as budget constraint, and coupon constraint are used to operate sensitivity analysis; consequently, two Lagrange multipliers are applied for the detailed mathematical analysis
Sensitivity Analysis between Commodity and Budget: Utility Maximization Case
Get PDFIn this article, sensitivity analysis between commodity and total budget are discussed. The property of a commodity that enables it to satisfy human wants is called utility. In economics, utility maximization method is essential for the welfare of the organizations and society. This study deals with four commodities and two constraints, such as budget constraint, and coupon constraint. In this article, 6×6 Hessian and 6×10 Jacobian are operated for the sensitivity analysis. Throughout the paper scientific method of optimization are applied
An Economical Study When Cost of Irregular Raw Materials of an Industry Increases for Nonlinear Budget Constraint
Get PDFVery few researches try to work with nonlinear budget constraint. This study attempts to discuss the sensitivity analysis with the use of nonlinear budget constraint. For the efficient use of inputs every industry should inspects economic analysis for the profit maximization. In this study Lagrange multiplier technique is applied with the bordered Hessian and Jacobian. For the sustainability of an industry in the competitive global economy, the industry should proceed through the application of scientific method, such as application of optimization policy
Economic Aspects of Profit Maximization if Cost of Principal Raw Material Increases
Get PDFIn this study sensitivity analysis of various inputs is discussed, when per unit cost of principal raw materials is increased. The organization has its main target of achieving maximum profit through the adjustment of various inputs and outputs in future production. In this study Cobb-Douglas production function is considered as a profit function to investigate sensitivity analysis during profit maximization procedures. In this article the method of Lagrange multiplier is applied to represent higher dimensional unconstrained problem from the lower dimensional constrained problem. Moreover, the determinant of the 6×6 bordered Hessian matrix and 6×6 Jacobian are applied for the augmentation of the sensitivity analysis efficiently
Utility Maximization Analysis of an Organization: A Mathematical Economic Procedure
Get PDFIn the society utility is the vital concept, especially in mathematical economics. It is considered as the tendency of an object or action that increases or decreases overall happiness. In social sciences, the property of a commodity that enables to satisfy human wants is called utility. This paper has tried to operate utility maximization policy of an organization by considering two constraints: budget constraint and coupon constraint. To develop the maximization policy of utility function, the techniques of multivariate calculus are used. In this study four commodity variables are used to operate the mathematical analysis efficiently. In this article Lagrange multiplier technique is applied to achieve optimal result throughout the study
