How Pressure Groups Affect Scientific Research For this assignment, I will choose two different pressure groups, analyse the way they work to campaign and raise money and compare their techniques to see which one is most effective. For this I chose the Terrence Higgins Trust, which focuses on raising money to aid those suffering from HIV and the pressure group ASH (Action on Smoking and Health). The Terrance Higgins Trust works to help raise people to get money through a variety of fundraisers to stop HIV from being spread. It was constituted as a memorial to a man called Terry Higgs who was one of the first UK patients to die from HIV. This group was developed in 1982 by a friend of Higgins.

“A Rhetorical Analysis on CDC’s Website on ADHD” The reasoning for The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) article, is to inform the media about how (CDC) can work for you by “Saving Lives.

Dear Dr. Allan Yee, My name is Samantha Jolie and I am a grade 10 student at Milliken Mills High School. I am writing this in hope that the Markham Stouffville Hospital would be part of our Milliken Mills HIV/AIDS program.

Research Critique Pamela Caviness Liberty University The title “Intensive Case Management Before and After Prison Release is No More Effective Than Comprehensive Pre-Release Discharge Planning in Linking HIV-Infected Prisoners to Care: A Randomized Trial” fits well with the content of the article. The article reports the results of a randomized controlled trial bridging case management intervention beginning approximately 3 months prior to and continuing 6 months after release versus a standard of care prison administered discharge release program for HIV-infected state prison inmates. The variables of interest are clearly defined independent/dependent. The independent variable was the intensive case management post release and the dependent variable was identified as access to medical services. The primary outcome variable was self-reported access to post-release medical care and/or community medical records.
