Analyze and reflect upon; final paragraph where you reflect upon how the readings relate to the current project and the course at large).

Project description
Remember that you’ll want to summarize all of the readings, along with mention of the text and authors, then suggest your narrowed focus for the response. Then you’ll use textual examples for analysis of the text and reflection on how the text relates to the course and to the project.
(introduction paragraph with a short summary of the readings and a thesis statement indicating how you’ll focus your analysis and reflection of the texts since you cannot possibly cover every point from the texts in a one page response; body paragraphs where you focus on the theme or topic you’ve decided to analyze and reflect upon; final paragraph where you reflect upon how the readings relate to the current project and the course at large).
rather than saying “author” state the author’s name.
I need one page summarizing the pdf attached

Qualitative PCR & Gene sequencing.

I will soon upload a file named “Methods and Results New”; please write a discussion/conclusion for the paper in the section following the heading ‘Discussion’.
Please, I want you to first briefly tell me what you can tell from the results. So you’ll need to read the methods and results sections THOROUGHLY. (Note: a good response=1 log reduction by 1month, 2 log reduction by 3 months, 3 log reduction by 6 months. A complete molecular response CMR= 0 BCR-ABL signal). Discussion should include reference to the database of known ABL mutations (I’ll upload this shortly) and we need to make recommendations for future treatment regimens appropriate for each patient. Conclusion should refer to the potential of molecular methods to aid in the diagnosis, monitoring, and mutation detection for personalized medical treatment.

This is what I can tell for now:
1. end-point PCR: The most common breakpoints for BCR-ABL are B2A2 and B3A2. This has been well-documented in many research papers and review articles (please find a reference article for this; I only know this because our professor told us so), and our results support this. Of the 20 patients we analysed, all except 2 patients had either B2A2, or B3A2, or both (there were 2 patients who had both). I’m not sure what we should say about the 2 patients who did not have any of these, or the 2 patients who had both. Well, I initially thought that (1) the 2 patient could have had mutations in the primer binding sites such that the primers could no longer bind to their normal binding sites….but this would have resulted in other problems unless the mutation was a silent one. And the chance of having a mutation at the primer binding sites as well as the chromosomal aberration is low, I think. (2) or it could have been that the patient had a different rare mutation that does not involve BCR exon 13,14 or ABL exon 2,3. I think this is more likely. If you look up google for “CML breakpoints”, you should be able to see what I mean by this. (3) or it could have been just due to experimental errors: too much cDNA was lost during the procedure, or too little was loaded onto the gel that it ended up undetectable, or it was mistakenly not added. Can you think of any other experimental errors? Please tell me if you can come up with a different explanation, or which one you think is most likely.
For
2.Qualitative PCR & Gene sequencing: Patient 1 showed only a sub-optimal response to Imatinib although no mutation was found with DNA sequencing. Furthermore, the BCR-ABL/BCR ratio slightly increased in the latest month.The patient needs to be monitored regularly after this, because it is very likely that the patient will soon develop a mutation that confers resistance to Imatinib. In that case, depending on the nature of the drug, the patient will need to receive either an increased dose of Imatinib or another drug such as Dasatinib. I’ll write more in a personal msg.

An argument is a sequence of statements that end with a conclusion.Explain

This is for an online discussion it is not an essay.
i must answer these questions and also post an answer to two of my peers.

What is an argument? What is a tautology?

Provide an example of modus ponens using real world statements, or premises.

What are some scenarios in which you have used arguments that meet the definition you’ve stated here?

Here is my classmates answers that you must write an answer to.

What is an argument? What is a tautology?

An argument is a sequence of statements that end with a conclusion.

A tautology is a compound proposition that is always true, regardless what the truth values of the propositional variables are.

Provide an example of modus ponens using real world statements, or premises.

“If the Royals win 4 out of 7 World Series games, then they are World Series champions.”

“The Royals won 4 out of 7 World Series games.”

——————————————————————————————————-

THEREFORE “The Royals are World Series champsions.”

What are some scenarios in which you have used arguments that meet the definition you’ve stated here?

Modus ponens can be seen frequently throughout the day all over the world as it is more or less an argument of common sense. For instance, if you buy a lottery ticket in hopes of (obviously) winning the lottery:

“If the lottery drawing draws 1 2 3 4 5 6, you win the lottery.”

“The lottery drew 1 2 3 4 5 6.”

———————————————————————–

THEREFORE “You win the lottery.”

Here is the second classmate.

An argument is a series of premises that if all true prove a conclusion. A tautology is when the combination of propositions is always true no matter what truth values the propositions have. For example, the rule of inference called modus ponens is based on the tautology that ( p^(p->q))->q. A real life example of modus ponens would be as follows:

If it is cold outside, then I will wear a coat.

It is cold outside.

Therefore,

I will wear a coat.

qed

Changing our propositions into propositional variables we will let p represent “it is cold outside” and let q represent “It is cold outside.”

Now, the argument has the form:

p->q

p

Therefore, q

qed

I use the aforementioned argument very frequently as the weather is beginning to change in my region.

Another example would be in establishing expectations for employees at work as follows:

If you master your current position, then you begin training on another position.

You master your current position.

Therefore, you begin training on another position.

qed

I can think of countless examples where this form of argumentation is used. For instance, in proof of solving an algebraic equation for x,

if x plus 12 equals 17, x equals 5

x plus 12 equals 17

Therefore, x equals 5

qed

Determine the best order for processing the jobs – First-In, First-Out (FIFO) and Shortest Processing Time (SPT).

A machining center in a local manufacturing company has five jobs to complete. The jobs are labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 based on the order they entered the shop. Your manager has asked you to compare two different job sequences to determine the best order for processing the jobs – First-In, First-Out (FIFO) and Shortest Processing Time (SPT). Compare the two sequences. Which sequence would you recommend and why? Be sure to include a variety of measures (average completion time, lateness, etc.) to compare the two sequencing rules. Include all calculations in your response.
