Medications to treat generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) can include a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), and/or serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI).These medications are advantageous due to the following affects:

Which of these blood pressure readings is considered to be Stage 2 hypertension per the American Heart Association guidelines?

When faced with severe architectural restrictions on the dimensions of a beam, a designer may be forced to use a doubly reinforced section.

A beam has dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 26 in., and d = 23.5 in. and is reinforced with 3 No. 5 bars. The concrete strength is 4,000 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Determine the strength Mn for this beam.

The hormone Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP)

A compression-controlled section has a tension-reinforcement area such that when the beam reaches its nominal flexural strength, the net tensile strain in the extreme layer of tensile steel is greater than or equal to 0.005.
