Bone Sample Clauses

Bone. Bone is a dynamic connective tissue consisting of an inorganic and organic phase. Approximately 60% of bone tissue is inorganic matter, 8-10% is water and the remainder is organic matter [1]. The inorganic phase of bone tissue is an impure form of hydroxyapatite (Ca10[PO4]6[OH]2) – a naturally occurring calcium phosphate. The organic phase is predominately made up of type I collagen and a variety of non-collagenous proteins and cells [2]. The structure of bone and its composition reflect a balance between its two major functions; the provision of mechanical integrity for locomotion and protection, and involvement in the metabolic pathways associated with mineral homeostasis [1]. There are two types of bone within the body, cortical and trabecular bone. Cortical bone is dense and compact and forms the outer layer of bone whereas trabecular bone makes up the inner layer of bone and has a spongy, honeycomb-like structure (Figure1.1) Cortical bone constitutes approximately 80% of our skeletal mass and the remaining 20% is that of trabecular bone [3].

  • Influenza Vaccine Upon recommendation of the Medical Officer of Health, all employees shall be required, on an annual basis to be vaccinated and or to take antiviral medication for influenza. If the costs of such medication are not covered by some other sources, the Employer will pay the cost for such medication. If the employee fails to take the required medication, she may be placed on an unpaid leave of absence during any influenza outbreak in the home until such time as the employee has been cleared by the public health or the Employer to return to the work environment. The only exception to this would be employees for whom taking the medication will result in the employee being physically ill to the extent that she cannot attend work. Upon written direction from the employee’s physician of such medical condition in consultation with the Employer’s physician, (if requested), the employee will be permitted to access their sick bank, if any, during any outbreak period. If there is a dispute between the physicians, the employee will be placed on unpaid leave. If the employee gets sick as a reaction to the drug and applies for WSIB the Employer will not oppose the application. If an employee is pregnant and her physician believes the pregnancy could be in jeopardy as a result of the influenza inoculation and/or the antiviral medication she shall be eligible for sick leave in circumstances where she is not allowed to attend at work as a result of an outbreak. This clause shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the Ontario Human Rights Code.

It may take weeks or months after being infected with HIV for the test to be positive. The HIV test is not always right.

If you have any questions about what information is required to be reported, please ask the study investigator or study staff. Although this testing is meant to be private, complete privacy cannot be guaranteed. For example, it is possible for a court of law to get health or study records without your permission.
