<div>A '''public hospital''' or '''government hospital''' is a [[hospital]] which is owned by a government and receives government funding. This type of hospital provides medical care free of charge, the cost of which is covered by the funding the hospital receives. <br />
<br />
In the United States, two thirds of all urban hospitals are [[non-profit hospitals]]. The remaining third is split between [[for-profit hospitals|for-profit]] and public. The largest public hospital system in America is the [[New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation]], which is associated with the [[New York University School of Medicine]].<br />
<br />
In the U.S., public hospitals receive significant funding from local, state, and/or federal governments. In addition, they may charge [[Medicaid]], [[Medicare]], and private insurers for the care of patients.<br />
<br />
The number of public hospitals in major suburbs declined 27% (134 to 98) from 1996 to 2002. It is thought that the increase in uninsured has drained public hospitals to near bankruptcy.<br />

<div>In medicine, '''gallstones''' ('''choleliths''') are [[crystalline]] bodies formed within the body by accretion or concretion of normal or abnormal [[bile]] components.<br />
<br />
Gallstones can occur anywhere within the [[biliary tree]], including the [[gallbladder]] and the common [[bile duct]]. Obstruction of the common bile duct is [[choledocholithiasis]]; obstruction of the biliary tree can cause [[jaundice]]; obstruction of the outlet of the pancreatic exocrine system can cause [[pancreatitis]]. '''Cholelithiasis''' is the presence of stones in the gallbladder or bile ducts.<br />
<br />
Researchers believe that gallstones may be caused by a combination of factors, including inherited body chemistry, body weight, gallbladder motility (movement), and perhaps diet.<br />

<div>The '''pancreas''' is a [[gland organ]] in the [[digestive system|digestive]] and [[endocrine system]] of [[vertebrates]]. It is both an [[endocrine gland]] producing several important [[hormones]], including [[insulin]], [[glucagon]], and [[somatostatin]], as well as an [[exocrine gland]], secreting [[pancreatic juice]] containing [[digestive enzymes]] that pass to the [[small intestine]]. These enzymes help to further break down the [[carbohydrates]], [[proteins]], and [[fats]] in the [[chyme]].<br />

<hr />
<div>In [[human anatomy]], the '''appendix''' (or '''vermiform appendix'''; also '''cecal (or caecal) appendix'''; also '''vermix''') is a blind-ended tube connected to the [[cecum]] (or caecum), from which it develops [[embryologically]]. The cecum is a pouchlike structure of the [[colon]]. The appendix is located near the junction of the [[small intestine]] and the [[large intestine]].<br />
<br />
The appendix averages 10 cm in length, but can range from 2 to 20 cm. <br />
<br />
The most common explanation for the appendix's existence in humans is that it's a vestigial structure which has lost its original function.New studies propose that the appendix may harbor and protect [[bacteria]] that are beneficial in the function of the human colon.<br />
<br />
The most common diseases of the appendix (in humans) are [[appendicitis]] and [[carcinoid]] tumors (appendiceal carcinoid). [[Appendix cancer]] accounts for about 1 in 200 of all gastrointestinal malignancies. In rare cases, [[adenomas]] are also present.<br />

It plays an important role in the traditional medical systems of China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Tibet, and Mongolia. Suppliers usually age the mugwort and grind it up to a fluff; practitioners burn the fluff or process it further into a stick that resembles a (non-smokable) cigar. They can use it indirectly, with [[acupuncture]] needles, or sometimes burn it on a patient's skin.<br />
