¶ … graphs and tables, and their legends. Figures and tables are very important constituents of every well-researched and professionally written paper, and not an adjunct. The information in a paper is characteristically represented in tables. Most of the basic concepts, descriptions, key discoveries, key natural trends, and some conclusions are shown in figures. Figures, tables and texts, all play very important roles. It is not always easy to decide what to place where, but the effort is well appreciated by the readers. The readers typically study the figures and tables before reading the text. Therefore, each figure and table ought to be informative and complete on its own. The main goal in the creation of graphs, charts, or tables, is the presentation of data in a very clear and accurate format which is easy to interpret. The large number of available computer graphics programs has made the creation of such illustrations quite simple. However, any poorly designed figures or tables will confuse and mislead the reader.

Generally, they are used for showing the trends, rather than for the more detailed information contained in the table.

All elements that are used in figures, such as letters, symbols and numbers, must be readable at their smallest size (Chapter 5. Figures and Tales, n.d).
Discussion and conclusion

The study however, failed to adequately discuss its research questions. The main purpose of the discussion is to understand and give a description of the significance of all findings in light of an already known factor in the research problem. Another aim is to give an explanation of any new understanding or new insights about the research problem after the findings have been fully taken into consideration (Organizing Your Social Science Research Paper: 8. The Discussion, 2015). Most…

Nursing Theory The theory of nursing is built in a dynamic process that develops from practice and is normally reproduced through research, by development and analysis of concepts and theories. There is need to investigate further the phenomena seen in nurses' experience during practice in order to identify the attributes.

According to the work of Fulford (1994) in an Oxford Practice Skills Project Report "Three elements of practice (ethics, law and communication skills) are approached in an integrated teaching programme which aims to address everyday clinical practice. The role of a central value of patient-centered health care in guiding the teaching is described. Although the final aim of the teaching is to improve the actual practice, we have found three

As mentioned earlier, the desired outcome of nursing care is comfort and there are many articles in which the researchers have talked about the needs of the patients and the things that alter the comfort of the patients. Kolcaba suggested that the cancer patients who are terminally ill can benefit from comfort care as it pays attention to the perspective and needs of the patients. Through such kind of

Economics of Medical Errors Medical Error Economics The 1999 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System pulled the curtain back on the dark secret of medical errors (Institute of Medicine, 2000). The best estimates at the time suggested that between 44,000 and 98,000 people were dying each year due to medical errors. A more recent study discovered that the current system of relying on voluntary
