Blue Lamp, repellent Sleepiness Coffee Substitute Not Wear Beser
Jakarta, proved to be the most potent coffee to ward off drowsiness. But the side effects of coffee are less favored because it makes the car drivers
beser and must often stop looking for the toilet. Alternatively,
pair blue lights in the cabin.
Scientists
at Universite Bordeaux
Segalen recently proven blue lights as potent as the effects of caffeine in coffee
in ousting sleepiness.
Obviously without beser or frequent
urination as happened
after drinking coffee.
The findings are expected to inspire the design of the car or vehicle
safer in the future.
By entering the blue light
as part of the interior design of modern cars, the number of accidents caused by drowsy drivers are expected to be reduced.
Experiments
on 48 drivers who cover a distance of 400 km shows, the error rate
is reduced thanks to the driver who made the blue light.
Violation of road markings
done 15 times by drivers who are exposed to
blue light,
13 times the driver who
drink coffee and 26 times on drivers who do not
get anything.
Research published in the journal
PLoS ONE this proves that the color blue can improve alertness by stimulating the
ganglion cells of the retina. Quoted from the Daily Mail,
Thursday (11/29/2012),
the cells are found
in the layers of
the retina located at
the back of the eyeball.
Retinal ganglion cells are also
connected with the
nerves of consciousness. Therefore, it can induce the
secretion or release menungkatkan melatonin, a hormone that
makes people be awake
and stay alert all night.
Various
previous studies showed
that a third of the victims
of road accidents related to
drowsiness. Because of
drowsiness, the
driver could lose alertness,
reflexes and the ability of visual perception
in the sense of vision
decreases.
Jakarta, this
time high blood pressure can be treated with changes in diet or
consumption of drugs that lower blood pressure. But has now found a new procedure uses radio waves to
destroy overactive nerves around the kidneys to help relieve high blood
pressure, aka hypertension.
Minimally invasive procedure called
catheter-based renal denervation (catheter-based renal denervation)
using a probe or some sort of wire that is inserted through the femoral
artery (major artery in the thigh) which will be issued a 'shot' of
intense radio waves to destroy nerves in about kidney acting
overly active in hypertensive patients, especially those that are
susceptible to certain drugs.
The team of researchers from Australia who created this
technique believe that the procedure lasted for 30 minutes is going to
revolutionize the treatment of high blood pressure to end the use of
certain pills to normalize blood pressure.
"Because
achieving a significant reduction in blood pressure, reduction in levels
of heart attack and stroke in patients can reach more than 40 percent,"
said lead researcher Professor Murray Esler of Baker IDI Heart and
Diabetes Institute in Melbourne, Australia, reports the Daily Mail, Thursday (12/20/2012).
"Kidney
participants had suffered no damage and functional disability. Means
there is no negative effect on the long-term health of patients affected
by this procedure," he continued.
The
findings, published in the journal Circulation also shows that six
months after treatment with this procedure, 83 percent of patients
reported a decrease in systolic blood pressure of at least 10
milliliters of mercury, while 79 percent of patients in the same group
known to be able to maintain it until the year-long decline.
Responding to the study, Professor Gareth Beevers of Blood
preasure UK stated, "The procedure is very attractive because it can
treat so many patients with hypertension and blood pressure returns to
normal levels. Even so the procedure will lead to the use of drugs
control blood pressure becomes obsolete .
