Bipolar Disorder Because there is no culture, no blood or urine test, no EKG or biopsy that specifically can diagnose bipolar disorder, you might wonder how the doctors arrived at that diagnosis. Like many psychiatric disorders, bipolar disorder can be difficult to diagnose. For many years, doctors have tried to clarify the guidelines they use to diagnose psychiatric disorders. However the experience of a given mental illness varies from one person to the next and this variation is one of the reasons mental illness can be so difficult to diagnose.

The crusts fall off in 2 to 3 weeks. Scarring is rare. The rash may involve face, eyes, mouth, and ears. Herpes Zoster has no specific location or ethnicity it affects, but the incidence rate for it is every year it ranges from 1.2 to 3.4 cases per 1,000 healthy individuals, increasing to 3.9?11.8 per year per 1,000 individuals among those older than 65 years.

Estimating Bioaccumulation: DDT in a Lake (Note: this is a hypothetical example.) A medium sized lake can serve as a major food source for a subsistence community. Suppose that a community of about 100 people gets much of its protein from fishing on such a lake. Every day, each person eats one or two fish, which weigh on average about 150 grams. The fish feed primarily on shrimp, as well as insects and other small animals. You have learned that an alga that is one of the primary food sources for shrimp in the lake is contaminated with DDT, a persistent organic pesticide that farmers upstream have begun using to control ants in food crops. You want to know how much of this DDT might eventually end up in members of the community.
