MATH&148 is a calculus course for business students. It is designed for students who want a brief course in calculus. Topics include differential and integral calculus of elementary functions. Problems emphasize business and social science applications. Translating words into mathematics and solving word problems are emphasized over algebra. Applications are mainly business oriented (e.g. cost, revenue, and profit). Mathematical theory and complex algebraic manipulations are not mainstays of this course, which is designed to be less rigorous than the calculus sequence for scientists and engineers. Topics are presented according to the rule of four: geometrically, numerically, analytically, and verbally. That is, symbolic manipulation must be balanced with graphical interpretation, numerical examples, and writing. Trigonometry is not part of the course.

In this course students will learn how to: Demonstrate an understanding of law, its historical development, judicial process, and the role of law in a complex social system, with emphasis on the American legal system and its institutions; Demonstrate the ability to analyze fact patterns in accordance with the legal professional case analysis method; to apply appropriate vocabulary and substantive legal principles; and then to analyze, compare, and evaluate the logic, reasoning, and arguments of other students, in accordance with established legal principles; Demonstrate the ability to complete a group project with other students, by identifying the applicable legal issues in a case or proposed statute, debating those issues, and producing a live course presentation; Identify and describe the basic principles of major business law subjects, such as constitutional authority to regulate business; common law contracts; the Uniform Commercial Code; agency; business associations; real and personal property and business-related torts; And identify and describe approaches to business ethics, social responsibility, and justice, and, demonstrate the ability, when confronted with an ethical dilemma, to weigh the arguments for alternative courses of action, and logically and persuasively argue for a particular course of conduct.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Metabolic syndrome refers to dysregulated metabolism that’s associated with increased risks of diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. In women, this syndrome becomes more in common after menopause, when levels of circulating 17β-estradiol drop. Estrogen replacement therapy can help, but its long-term use is linked to other problems, like gynecological cancers. To explore new options, researchers recently administered butyrate, a fatty acid, to mice with metabolic syndrome whose ovaries had been removed, as butyrate has been shown to alleviate obesity and insulin resistance, both of which are linked to metabolic syndrome. The researchers found that oral butyrate reduced body fat and blood lipid levels in the mice while increasing whole-body energy usage and improving insulin sensitivity. Investigation of the mechanism in cultured muscle cells revealed that butyrate induced expression of the estrogen receptor ERα and activated the proteins AMPK and PGC1α..."
