Asthma

Asthma is a chronic, long-term inflammatory disease of the respiratory system that affects over twenty-five million people in the United States alone.2 Currently, it is unknown why & how Asthma begins in patients, however, the symptoms of Asthma are able to be controlled through maintenance & medication. When allergens come into contact with the body, the immune response triggers the smooth muscles surrounding the bronchiole tubes in the lungs to contract. This contraction tightens the airways in the lungs & complicates breathing. Asthma can be a severe disease if untreated.

Long Term Effects of Creatine Supplementation On The Body

The consumption of creatine monohydrate is quickly becoming a very popular ergogenic aid. Thus, the purpose of this literature review is to assess creatine monohydrate’s impact on the body and the effects that long-term consumption has on health and performance. Articles assessing these issues have been chosen from scholarly journals and focus on the scientific study of creatine and its impact on the body. In long-term creatine supplementation studies found no idacies that creatine negatively affects blood pressure, plasma creatine, or renal function (2-9). Moreover, these studies suggest that creatine supplementation appears to be a generally effective performance enhancer.

The Winning Edge

For our project, we will determine whether the turnover to shot ratio can determine the outcome of a game. We will obtain our data from the GoBeacons website. We will be using both the men’s and the women’s game stats from all the years available for our data. For each individual game we will determine the number of shots and divide it by the number of turnovers. After obtaining this number, we will constructs a histogram that will show the shape of the distribution. After determining the mean, standard deviation, and median we will conduct a hypothesis test to determine if a certain shot to turnover ratio determines a win.
