SERUM CALCIUM LEVEL IN GERIATRIC MEN, COMPARATIVE STUDIES


ABSTRACT

Calcium is the most important mineral in the body. The body needs calcium for normal functioning of nerves and muscles including the most important muscles of all which is the heart. Calcium is also important for healthy bones and teeth. The amount of calcium in the blood is carefully controlled by the body’s hormonal systems.

The body gets calcium from diary products, some vegetables (such as broccoli), and some fortified foods. Calcium can also be obtained from taken pills containing calcium. Most of the body’s calcium is stored in the bones and only small amount is found in the blood (serum). Calcium is maintained within a fairly narrow range from 8.5 to 10.5mg/dl (4.3 to 5.3meq/l or 2.2 to 2.7mmol/l).

The estimation of serum calcium level is fraught with possible errors. Several means of contamination might lead to false elevations of serum calcium concentration. Before the test is carried out, one does not need to fast or limit ones activity before the test. Rather certain medicine/drugs needed to be avoided before the test, because they might affect the test result. The result of the experiment can be calculated, since the differences in serum calcium is significance with the age differences. Those with the age bracket (50 years & above) have lesser serum calcium level than those in the range of 20 to 30 years.


CHAPTER ONE


Introduction


Serum Calcium level in Geriatric men

Calcium is the most common mineral in the body and one of the most important elements. The body needs it to build and fix bones and teeth, help nerves work, make muscles squeeze together, help blood clot, and help the heart to work. Almost all of the calcium in the body is stored in the bone. The rest is found in the blood.

Normally the level of calcium in the blood is carefully controlled. When blood calcium levels get low (hypocalcemia), the bones release calcium to bring it back to a normal blood level. When blood calcium levels get high (hypercalcemia), the extra calcium is stored in the bones or passed out of the body in urine and stool.

The of serum calcium level appears to be associated with blood pressure and metabolic risk factors for cardiovascular disease.


1.2.0 The amount of calcium in the body depends on the amount of :

  1. Dietary Calcium.
  2. Calcium and vitamin D absorb by intestines.
  3. Phosphate in the body.
  4. Certain hormones including parathyroid hormone, calcitonin and estrogen in the body.

Vitamin D; these hormones help control the amount of calcium in the body. They also control the amount of calcium absorbed from food and the amount passed from the body in urine and stool. The blood levels of phosphate are closely linked to calcium levels and they work in opposite ways: As blood calcium levels get high, phosphate levels get low, and the opposite is also true.

The aim and objective of this study is to:

  1. Determine the serum calcium levels in geriatric men aged 50 years and above.
  2. Compare the values obtained with age group 20 to 30 years.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


    Can this topic “Computer Security Using Encryption and Decryption of Multimedia Data System” be used for Computer Science (CS) Project?

    Yes it can be utilized for research — Encryption attempts to ensure secrecy in communications, such as those of spies, military leaders, and diplomats, but it have also had religious applications. The aim of the study is to eradicate the problems of the existing system. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out to understand and improve the computer data security through encryption of data, provide a means of safeguarding data in a system, enhance the integrity of data, facilitate the use of more sophisticated tool against hacking, cracking, bugging of a system, and develop a platform to complement physical security. The motivation that led to the implementation of the proposed system is that there is problem is security in the existing system which entails that …


    Can the material for “The Role of Community Health Administration and Rural Development” be used as a guide for Community Health Project?

    Yes it can be used — This project work on the importance of community health administration and rural development was carried out to find out the importance community health administration in rural development and what are the adverse health implications when the community involvement is very minimal. It also try to find out what factors are responsible for its ineffectiveness during its implementation. While it also took a look at the method best suited for the checkmating and control of all factors and conditions that adversely affects the administration. However, this project is divided into five(5) chapters, the chapter one gives a general overview of the topic, which includes background overview of the topic, which includes background of study historical background of study area, statement of …
