Learning 1. Higher education must address the personal and developmental needs of the student as a human being. Student affairs and services should take the lead in this regard, as well as appropriate advocacy of students in general.2. The mission for student affairs and services must complement the institutional mission, its educational purposes, the locale in which it is operating, and its student characteristics.nformation technology (IT) is essential to efficient and effective management of services and programmes for students. Therefore, IT must be made available to students and student affairs and services workers in order to achieve learning and success goals for students.
Some laboratories report total protein, albumin, and the calculated ratio of albumin to globulins, termed the A/G ratio. The A/G ratio is calculated from measured total protein, measured albumin, and calculated globulin (total protein - albumin). Because disease states affect the relative amounts of albumin and globulin, the A/G ratio may provide a clue as to the cause of the change in protein levels.
The delta ratio is sometimes used in the assessment of elevated anion gap metabolic acidosis to determine if a mixed acid base disorder is present. In order to understand this, let us re-examine the concept of the anion gap. If one molecule of metabolic acid (HA) is added to the ECF and dissociates, the one H+ released will react with one molecule of HCO3- to produce CO2 and H2O. This is the process of buffering.
