Module 4 Discussion 2: Disease Analysis Journal

Overview

In your exploration of readings this module, you will find articles of interest around the following areas: digestive system diseases and neurologic diseases. The key terms in the Explore section might give you some ideas for diseases to search. As you read the articles, be sure to consider how many of them have multiple issues going on within different systems. Is there a connection between the systems discussed?

You should spend approximately 10 hours on this assignment.

1. From the list of selected readings below, choose two with topics that you know the least about or are most interesting to you.

2. Then search for, read, and incorporate other readings of your choice in your area of interest that focus on digestive system diseases and/or neurologic diseases. You might include:

    -1-2 journal articles or websites

    -Book chapters (past textbooks may be good options)

    -Your goal is to have a total of at least 60 pages of content read.
