In humans, 39 genes responsible for alcoholism

A team of scientists from the University of Iowa, USA, held a number of quite bizarre research. Experts managed to find out that in humans there are at least 39 genes that are responsible for the development of alcohol dependence.

alcoholism

This applies both to the male population and the female. The last of them, suffer from Alcoholism much more often than men, for the past several decades.

According to scientists, this discovery will help to create a truly effective drug in the treatment of alcoholism. In addition, the new drug will be effective not only in treatment but also in the constant prevention of addiction to alcohol.

It is worth noting that according to the only official statistics, more than 9 percent of US citizens deemed to have problems   alcohol. Another 12 percent were afraid that there will be similar problems in the future. According to data for 2012, while intoxicated committed about 29 percent of all crimes and 34 percent very serious.

The drug to cancer cells will be ingested into the nanocapsules

Scientists from India have developed a new, more secure way to treat cancer. Now, the drug will hit the target dot in the form of infected cells, for which he was placed in pre-programmed nanocapsules.

Cancer cells

Indian Institute of Science specialists modified the system drug delivery in the body, the affected cancer . With nanocapsules substance will fall directly to affected cells, bypassing healthy parts. For this used present in the patient physiological signals, namely for capsule and programmed them.

For the production of nanocapsules used biopolymers - special material which does not interact with body tissues. If you get into a human patient, the drug fully gets to the affected sites. This avoids premature release drug or damage.

The surface of the nanocapsules have added a molecule which It is used to identify cancer cells . The walls of the developed products very strong, capable of withstanding a large amount of drugs, but at the same time, permeable local signals. This was made possible thanks to their special structure.

Picking up close to the cancer cells, the capsule releases drug molecules. This is due to the influence of enzymes (Ever local signals). (READ MORE)

Painkillers can cause cancer

Long-term intake of painkillers triples the risk of developing kidney cancer. That is the conclusion drawn by researchers.

If you are taking such anti-inflammatory drugs   as ibuprofen for more than 10 consecutive years, the risk of cancer of kidney disease in this case, you have tripled. So say researchers at Harvard Medical School in Boston, who conducted a study with the participation of 125 thousand people.

It turned out that the risk of   Kidney Cancer It grows by 51% for all those who regularly took painkillers, freely sold at any pharmacy without a prescription. But those who are sitting on these drugs for longer than 10 years, almost three times more likely to develop renal cell carcinoma - the most frequent views Kidney Cancer . It's about non-steroidal

anti-inflammatory drugs, which is frequently taken as a preventive measure against cardiovascular diseases and Alzheimer's disease.

As it turned out, aspirin alone, belongs to this group of drugs is considered to be sufficiently safe. As reported in an article for the journal Archives of Internal medicine, Harvard researchers studied the medical records of 77,525 men and 49,403 women who used aspirin and other drugs of this group for 20 years. We observed 333 developed kidney cancer.

P atsienty, taking painkillers , 19% more risk of becoming a victim of renal cell carcinoma in the first 4 years after the use of drugs. Between 4 and 10 years, the risk grew by 36% and from 10 years or more actually tripled. In the calculations the scientists took into account other risk factors such as body weight, smoking, regular physical activity, and family history of hypertension.

Still, the risk of   Kidney Cancer   in comparison with other significant illnesses, and against whom are taking anti-inflammatory drugs, in general, insignificant. Of the 100 thousand people will develop this cancer from all six, while as Alzheimer expect 95 people.

Right Toothpaste

How not to get lost in front of shelves of toothpaste in a big store? What to choose? Which manufacturer to prefer? What problems can be solved with its help? Tips Israeli dentists .

The most important thing toothpaste   - Its composition. There should be some prerequisites. Fluoride   - It is used for many years for the prevention of dental   caries . Scientists are finding new chemical compounds containing fluoride in the active form, which is not able to destroy the cleaning agents or abrasives. This material not only keeps our teeth caries But also helps the gums to actively resist inflammatory diseases.

Triclosan previously used in the production of deodorants, it now a mandatory component of toothpastes. His positive property - for some time to reduce the number of germs in the mouth. Studies have shown that the use of triclosan significantly reduced the number of inflammatory diseases of the gum - up to 30% compared with Toothpaste and, as part of which provides fluoride and triclosan missing. Triclosan   It is not an antibacterial agent, but when combined with the copolymer binds it, and subsequently releases for 12 hours.

We are familiar with   table salt , We know about its application and useful properties. As it turned out, it contains dozens of minerals by which becomes effective and important component of many toothpastes. Properties sea ​​salt as a natural antibiotic is very important for preventing gum disease. It has long been used to rinse the teeth, but today it has found its use as a therapeutic drug in the composition of the toothpaste.

Hydrogen peroxide   - The main active ingredient in the compositions of bleaching tooth enamel. For active bleaching need a high concentration of hydrogen peroxide. The higher it is, the more work bleach. Low concentrations used for disinfection and microbial layer normalization in the oral cavity for prevention of gum disease . The composition of many drugs used in dentistry and cosmetology hydrogen peroxide may be present in the range 3-20%. The bleaching effect of toothpastes are not as noticeable, because the percentage of hydrogen peroxide there is minimal. If there is a need for a fast, albeit short bleaching applies a high concentration.

The most successful fighter against tooth decay found xylitol . But it is not necessary to use it with toothpaste with xylitol. Its effectiveness is based on daily use of small doses as part of the chewing gum. Recently, there was an attempt to make it in the form of syrup for internal use. The result was unexpected. How to deliver   xylitol   in the human body? It is very simple - by applying to the teeth a composition toothpaste . According to some forecasts, in the near future xylitol   It will become an indispensable component of toothpastes.

Purified Botox cures diseases

Scientists have found new ways to use Botox for the benefit of human health. This cosmetic filler may be used in cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease and chronic pain.

New ways to use Botox   developed by British scientists. They developed a method of joining and rebuilding molecules with which cleared a popular means for wrinkles. Enhanced Botox As it turned out, you can use without fear to help people with Parkinson's disease, chronic migraine, and cerebral palsy.

In the near future neurotoxin Clostridium botulinum (aka Botox ) May become a new long-term anesthetic . "Now it will be possible to produce drugs on the basis of Botox - Says Bazbek Davletov from the Laboratory of Molecular Biology at the Medical Research Council. - They will be safer and more efficient. "

Davletova colleagues managed to split the molecule Botox   two separate building blocks to make them more secure. Then the blocks were brought together. This was reported in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The new method produces a purified molecule Botox Which allow the use of cosmetic for broad clinical use, without fear of its toxic side effects. In previous years Botox   already it has been widely used in medicine, as doctors convinced him possibilities to relax the muscles and nerves, holding back spasms and tremors such as those that occur in patients with Parkinson's disease. Botox is also used as a anesthetic .

However, this is an extremely toxic substance, which can be used only very solution. It is until recently limited the use of Botox. But now scientists from the UK managed to clean it.

Educated and rich women their husbands often beat

Educated and highly paid women often face domestic violence. That is the conclusion reached by researchers at the Norwegian Police College.

domestic violence

They analyzed the statistics of visits to police teams reported cases domestic violence , Seized thousands of victims of both sexes, and then checking whether the level of education and income of women from her risk of becoming a victim of violence. It is believed that most of the hands of aggressive husbands and partners suffer just women undereducated, underpaid, and that is called a "score."

But it turned out that in reality it is the educated and well-paid ladies and exposed more frequently than others domestic violence . So, if a woman in the family earns 67% of total revenue, its risk of being subjected to mental and physical violence grows in 7 (!) Times compared with those women who contribute to the family budget is not more than 33%.

The study's authors believe that this is due to the desire less educated and receive less money men somehow compensate for their lower social status and weakness in front of his wife. Men women subjected to violence to restore the disturbed (as it seems) balance in which a woman is higher in the hierarchy.

Charitable organizations that help victims of domestic violence, statistics confirm this. No education and no income women is no guarantee that it will not be subjected to mental or physical violence by a man. This also applies to outbreaks of jealousy, and some rigid restrictions and the use of physical force. (READ MORE)

Lifestyle protect against Alzheimer's

The presence of excess weight may be the cause of dementia. Some features of our lifestyle can cause brain damage, not inferior to the level of destructiveness of Alzheimer's disease.

Vascular dementia   it is the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease (in Russia the first!). If scientists are not yet able to understand the exact causes of Alzheimer's disease, in the case of vascular dementia   all have been clear. It develops when the vascular system supplying blood to the brain, is damaged. If the cells of the brain do not receive blood, they eventually die, which becomes the cause of the onset of dementia.

She sometimes comes suddenly, as a result of stroke, and may develop over a long period with the aging process. Alzheimer's disease is still poorly known, incurable condition, and vascular dementia   It can be prevented in most cases. It's enough to adjust the way of life.

For example, to stop smoking, because of which the body is vasoconstriction. It is necessary to fight high cholesterol and hypertension, not to abandon regular exercise. People with high blood pressure the risk of vascular dementia is three times higher than average.

Experts advise to limit the use of alcohol and be sure to fight obesity. Many owners of superfluous kilograms know that the risk of heart attack or make type 2 diabetes, but that they do not particularly frightening. However, the prospect of becoming a victim of dementia may seem a much more challenging to quickly take weight loss.

Cardiac infected his patients with staphylococcus

The scandal erupted in the Cedars-Sinai - a prestigious medical center in Los Angeles, a few patients who are sick with bacterial endocarditis. This disease is found among five people undergoing surgery for valve replacement. Surgery they spent the same doctor.
The first three cases of bacterial endocarditis were registered at the clinic in June 2012. Epidemiologists working in the medical institution, found that the cause of the disease was the staphylococcus bacteria, a strain of which was the same in all infected. This suggested that the infected patients   the same source. Carrier of the skin disease appeared cardiac surgeon. He unwittingly infected patients during the operation - bacteria passed on to his patients through microcracks in medical gloves.
Once it became clear who was the infectious agent, the administration raised the entire base of the clinic patients doctor. Through customer surveys clinic revealed that bacterial endocarditis two more people sick.
As a result, the four victims had to spend a second operation, and the surgeon's medical center was removed from operations until, until he finally beat the disease.

For reference:
Every year, because of the health workers who do not observe the rules of personal hygiene, in developed countries, killed 7 people out of 100; in developing countries the figure is 10 out of 100 patients These figures were announced by representatives of the World Health Organization in May 2012.

The fact of the topic:
Medics,   infecting patients It can be divided into two categories: infecting patients with dangerous infections due to criminal negligence and causing harm to human health specifically. A second group is much smaller, but it is - the real monsters.
In 2007, the Spanish anesthetist Juan Maes gave in 1933 in prison and fined $ 1 million. Valencia prosecutors failed to prove that professionals working in four hospitals of the city, from 1988 to 1997 he was infected with hepatitis C is not less than 276 patients, of whom three at the time of issuance was no longer alive.
According to Western media reports, the head of the hospital intensive care unit La Fe was a drug addict. It is administered to the patient anesthesia used syringes. At trial doctor-killer He said he was not aware of his terrible diagnosis, so his actions were in good faith, but the prosecution broke his version to the nines, proving that their diagnosis Maes knew at least since 1993.

Female Orgasm: achieved by the power of thought!

Scientists have uncovered one of the most fascinating secrets of human physiology - the secret of the female orgasm. It turns out that all matter in the brains!

If the male orgasm has never been any difficulties, the nature female orgasm   It has always been the reason for the different theories. What kind of advice is not only published in women's magazines about how reach orgasm   (sometimes conflicting). I do not consider how much money is spent pharmaceutical companies to create "female Viagra." Alas, we wasted.

Nature female orgasm   It has always remained a mystery, since no one knows exactly how and why it is called. But scientists have long been intrigued by allegations that some women can bring themselves to orgasm, "the power of thought" even alone and without touching the body. Singer Lady Gaga said last week that can mentally reach orgasm   at any time, when she wants it. On the Internet there are even special forums in which women communicate, endowed with talent "contactless orgasm."

Author of the book "The Science of orgasm," Dr. Barry Komisaruk conducted studies in which scanned the brains of women receiving mental pleasure. "Pleasure centers in the brain that are responsible for orgasm in the course of these studies responded just as they react when a woman experiences pleasure in the ordinary physical contact - says Dr. Komisaruk. - However, these centers do not respond when the lady simulate orgasm. So there can be no mistake. "

But how can women do this? "Some people use a combination of breathing exercises and a variety of sexual fantasies - said the researcher. - Others also use imagination while performing on the floor exercise for the pelvis. Someone is in the head of the scene of hot sex, and someone quite romantic scenes in whose loved one whispers something in your ear gentle. But there are also those who have experienced an orgasm, just seeing yourself on a tropical white sandy beach, or imagining how energy waves pass through the body. "

Genetic analysis instead of chemotherapy.

Genetic analysis can relieve breast cancer patients on chemotherapy severe if this procedure is not required for curing. Unfortunately, this revolutionary discovery deter wide implementation in practice of the high price.
38-year-old American Sarah Jackson was sick   breast cancer Has gone through a mastectomy, doctors removed a cancerous tumor from her breast. And now the woman was going to have to make a choice. Oncologists offered her chemotherapy   in order to reduce the chance of recurrence of the deadly disease.

This procedure is not strictly necessary. In addition, many of us know, to some severe side effects it causes - from general weakness and nausea to hair loss. However, according to statistics, women aged Sarah has 40% chances to suffer a relapse breast cancer Which can result in death. That's why most of her peers, patients opt Chemotherapy .

But then Sarah found out that in some medical clinics in the US is used in full genetic test to determine the prognosis of breast cancer . Test Onkotip DX   designed specifically for patients with breast cancer With its help, doctors can check the activity of 11 genes in the tumor. These genes are directly linked to the spread of cancer. Froze their activities, experts may with a high degree of accuracy to determine what are the chances of recurrence of the tumor. So, is it worth to go through chemotherapy.

Sarah went through DX test Onkotip   and I saw that chemotherapy   it does not need. In any case, the woman also took a genetic test MammaPrint, which assesses the chances of tumor metastasis. Already, both tests used in clinical practice. However, it is quite expensive - the cost DX test Onkotip For example, in terms of our money it is about 100 thousand rubles.
However, we can hope that with the development of genetic medicine, this figure will be significantly reduced.

New chemotherapy is 1000 times more powerful

Can the new "super-chemotherapy" beat ovarian cancer? Doctors have developed a revolutionary way of chemotherapy, which in 1000 (!) Times more powerful than usual. He promises hope for women battling with severe forms of cancer.

Usually the drug with which conducted chemotherapy , Enter the blood through the IV patients. Experts from the London School of Medicine proposed a new radical way of drug delivery - directly through the abdominal cavity through a catheter. This technique is called intraperitoneal chemotherapy And now it begins to be tested in numerous medical centers around the country.

Ovarian Cancer   It refers to one of the deadliest in oncology. Even in a developed from a medical point of view of the country, like the UK, statistics on it looks bleak - 6 600 new cases each year and 4300 deaths. Authors intraperitoneal chemotherapy techniques are very optimistic. They believe that they can increase the survival of at least 20%.

Head of the research program of this technique in the UK is Dr Chris Gallagher. " Ovarian Cancer Typically extends, as shown, or recurrence only within the abdominal cavity, - he says. - Atypically for him to move to other organs of the body are located outside this area. This is in contrast to many of the other cancers. We give the drug directly into the affected area, a place of concentration of the tumor. Thus, in our hands to expose the cancer is hundreds of times more powerful concentrated shock chemistry. "

Dr. Gallagher stresses that physicians need to increase efficiency Chemotherapy But not to increase its dosage. Only in this case we can speak about positive results. In addition, the impact on cancer directly reduces the ability of tumors to develop resistance to the drugs used in chemotherapy.

Pepper - for hair growth

Hair after winters became brittle and started to fall rapidly

This to me, unfortunately, occurs annually. So I have a lot of years I use a universal drug. Ambulance affected hair - tincture red hot peppers. It can be bought at a pharmacy or make your own. Moisten this tincture fingertips and rub 2-3 times a week in the hair roots. Hair on the eyes come alive and begin to grow better.

Savchenko, Kolomna

Commented Kostyukova Tatiana, PhD, cosmetologist, triholog:
- The tincture of red pepper contains capsaicin - the burning substance that is irritating to the peripheral nerves, increasing blood flow to the affected area. Due to stimulation of hair follicles hair really begins to grow rapidly, but the health of the hair infusion did not improve. To enhance the effect, after rubbing tincture cover your head with foil and put a warm hat. By the way, you need to use the tincture with caution. Firstly, it is necessary to put it on the roots, not the hair itself - otherwise they are dry and have a long time to recover. Secondly, the tincture can be used 1-2 times a week, a small amount of rubbing, otherwise can be burned scalp. And thirdly, dyed hair after using tincture start to "fade."

Who has not envied the students who have the right to rest for almost three months in a row? It turns out that a long vacation for the body are almost as stressful as no vacation at all.

People who have a lot of work or study, entertain the idea of ​​duty holiday , As unearthly pleasure. It turns out that for a long inactivity can be harmful to health. 1329 adolescents were interviewed some time ago by researchers from Baylor University in Texas.

The researchers were interested in adolescents on how many free time   They have, as it is conducted and how happy yourself with the feel. It was found that the degree free time   the level of happiness of young people do not grow.

In general, those who had a few free hours, devoting all time to studying, and those who are most of the day loafing, felt almost equally unhappy. "So for a person more pleasant - a lot free time   or a little? - Asks one of the study authors. - We found the answer to this question. Happiness is in the balance, the perfect combination of loads and free time. It is also the fact that a properly selected balance helps to overcome the negative side effects of the consumer society, which is very important for young people, materialistically-minded. "

Incidentally, scientists have long proved that by itself   recreation   A man can tire if it will be to lying on the couch and watching of TV. The more active and diverse leisure time activities, the more refreshed himself afterwards feels people.

Winter problem - a bad dream

- Nearly half (45 percent) of people on the planet, including the Russians from time to time suffer from insomnia and 20 percent generally can not cope with it - says MD, professor Tatyana Pilate. - This is especially evident in the autumn-winter period.

At this time the shortest daylight hours simply makes us spend a significant portion of the day in artificial light, thereby prolonging the period of wakefulness. This violates the biorhythms, formed over thousands of years, "biological clock" of the body in conflict with bright artificial light.

According to the research scientists at the University of Haifa and Ohio it is clear that due to artificial light, our body synthesizes melatonin less than he needs. And from this hormone it depends on the work of "clock" genes that help determine the time of activity and rest, as well as the time of supply. And it inevitably leads to sleep disturbances.
- Artificial light, fast moving long distances, work at different times of the day is likely to disrupt the sleep cycle, and payment for all these "benefits of civilization" is insomnia, - he says
MD, chief specialist of the medical management of the company "LEOVIT nutrio" Maria Ovsyannikov. - It inhibits our psychomotor function - the ability to perceive, process and respond to information the world. The body lacks the necessary resources and tries to slow the natural metabolism to stretch the available reserves in the largest possible amount of time. And the consequences of insomnia can build - and then one day by day is becoming less and less workable.

ONLY NUMBERS
- According to the National Commission for the study of sleep disorders in the United States 36 percent of adults have problems with sleep disorders.
- About 40 million. Suffer from chronic sleep disorders, while 30 million. Insomnia occurs frequently, posing a threat of various diseases.
- As a result of sleep disorders around 40,000 people a year die, 250,000 are injured falling asleep at the wheel! A ten-year study in California found that the death rate among people who sleep less than 6 hours per day, 70% higher than among those whose nights sleep is 7-8 hours.

Chronic fatigue swept the world

The age of high technology and technological progress has brought to humanity the next attack. British scientists have started talking about the new disease, which ended up being about half of the working population of the planet. We are talking about chronic fatigue, which, oddly enough, diagnose themselves "sick", as in medical reference books such disease is not mentioned.

Researchers from the United Kingdom noted that in today's society is rapidly progressing disease. And only one in five cases, patients have certain health problems, because they are really susceptible to chronic fatigue. In other cases, the problem arises as to "nowhere."

Chronic fatigue is characterized by insomnia, headaches, poor concentration, digestive problems, weakness, swollen lymph nodes, muscle pain and joint pain. More and more doctors are inclined to call chronic fatigue "email fatigue". They believe that modern man relax hinder communication means by which we are constantly in the public domain (mobile phones, computers) and appliances, creating a sound effect (MP3-players, televisions, stereos). Because of the inability to be alone with yourself in accumulated irritation, which leads to stress, and they, in turn, are the cause of nervous diseases.

The majority of chronic fatigue stress arises from the constant anxiety. Its causes are clear to everyone: fear not repay the loan on time, the fear of being laid off, can not cope with their duties, etc. It is these ideas, visit us almost every day, create a special, panic mood, which is also one of the causes of chronic fatigue.

British doctors warn: to cope with this disease, it is not necessary to drink fashionable nowadays steroids. Best of all - a couple of days to turn off your mobile, book a cottage, located in the edge of the forest, to try to thoroughly breathe fresh air and sleep.

Lack of sleep is sometimes useful

Tokyo neurologists and psychiatrists have found that lack of sleep can have a positive effect on the human psyche. The fact that we dream not only restored, but the resulting digest for the day (or several days - depending on stress) information. Lack of sleep interferes with its deep penetration into the subconscious, and so we protect ourselves from excessive stress and fear.

Scientifically proven: at long dream short-term memory into long-term moves. Our body is designed so that after the emergency situation he needs rehabilitation, the best remedy is - healthy sleep. While the human body "turned off", the adrenaline and the stress hormone cortisol absorbed in the hippocampus (part of the brain responsible for the assimilation of information). But if you interfere with natural sleep, harmful information quickly will fly out of my head.
Each of us has his own past, some moments that you want to forget forever. Tokyo doctors decided to see how long a person will remember the state of emergency, if you do not give him enough sleep.
For their experiment, the researchers attracted volunteers who have a driver's license. For a certain length of time they were shown videos about the terrible accident on the road. Then half of the test went to bed, while others stay awake all the time.
After all the participants in the experiment sat behind the wheel, the researchers noted that sleep drivers feel less confident on the road. Seen bedtime events strongly etched in their memory, while at the   lack of sleep   the subjects were driving smoothly without fear of being in an accident.

What kind of women do not understand jokes

In fact, many of the fairer sex have an enviable sense of humor. Another issue is that it is women as inspiration - appears and disappears unpredictably.

Sooner or later, the women come to power. They have such ambitions and so much testosterone that is bound to happen. Men will go into the shadows. At least I would not be surprised if in the future, their rights will be severely limited. Anyway, these are the rights of men at random.

For example, men may prohibit jokes in their usual manner, which is so annoying for some reason women. We are told that this is not a joke, but a torture. And indeed, there is such a ridiculous "blind spot" where male and female associates only one thing - a lack of understanding. It is, for example, tell an anecdote or a joke, suddenly begins a Greek tragedy: Women cry and send the curse, and around impossibly tense atmosphere.

Let's say you're sitting in a restaurant with the girl, looking forward to a banquet worthy end, because everything is going to. Well, how could it be otherwise, if it shining eyes, and she laughs at your every witty word? Alas, the woman who laughs at a table in the restaurant and in the taxi and the woman with whom you were in the bedroom - two different people. And if you go on by inertia gush humor in bed, this is what can spoil everything. All that may be - a little self-irony. Leaving for homeopathic limiter in bed is dangerous. Guess what the joke will make your partner smile and how - will plunge into the abyss of depression, it is as difficult as to receive the Nobel Prize. Therefore it is better not to start.

Another situation where a woman is better not to joke - is a moment of grief. The reason for the disappointment can be anything: deprived of the premium or the nail broke. But no matter how weak he was, trying to humor in this situation may be just as well as dancing in a minefield. No chance. The men considered to be the cheer of a sufferer's daring and silly jokes. Laughter allows you to relax and realize that all is not lost, and twist the rope too soon. But God forbid do the same with a woman! Joking bitter moment of its problems do not reduce tension, but on the contrary, to heat it so that you are the first and burn. You will certainly understand what you're unfeeling brute. And it will be the smaller of the trouble.

Another "sacred cow" for which it is better not to infringe, is pregnancy. Whatever overruns do not occur with future mother, all that a man can do - look reverently, touched and read. Dig, why so useless. The woman, in principle, difficult to grasp the essence, and the pregnant woman is so contradictory that if you try to understand it, you can easily go mad. And if you hear as she calls herself, "Hippo" or "elephant", for you it does not mean anything. Does not mean that is what you can somehow gag in her regard. Especially in public.
