People with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or the most common type of sleep disorder, caused by obstruction of the upper airway, often waking in the middle of the night that caused problems in the daytime, such as excessive drowsiness.
OSA is common in middle-aged people and people who have excess weight. Typically, characterized by snoring, and even harder breathing during sleep. When this happens, the muscles in the airways thereby inhibiting respiration deflating at least 10 seconds before the brain signals that cause contraction of the muscle to open the airways.
Not only interfere with sleep, OSA can cause fatigue, increase blood pressure and heart problems. It can be treated using continuous positive airway pressure machine (CPAP).However, this means that people with OSA should use a mask all night. For many people, this is very uncomfortable.
In research led by Dr. Stefania Redolfi, scientists are trying to use Sepaha tight stockings. This is done to prevent the buildup of fluid pressure pernapasa channels by regulating the flow of blood from the legs.
They included 12 patients with problems in the veins that cause blood to accumulate in the lower leg when the day and accumulate in the neck when the night.
"We found that tight stockings can reduce the impact of fluid in the legs during the day who were then able to reduce the pile of fluid that flows into the neck at night. So to cut a third of sleep disorders," said Dr. Stefania Redolfi, quoted by the Daily Mail.
Patients using the stockings from waking to sleep for a week. The results, published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, showed a decrease in volume of fluid in the legs as much as 62 percent overnight and 36 percent reduction in incidence of difficulty breathing during sleep per hour sleep.
The research was done because many patients who feel uncomfortable using a face mask when sleeping. Although, a face mask allows air is pumped into the nose and keeping the airway open.
Do not hesitate to get together with work friends after work. Create an intimate relationship with colleagues, it can make you live longer. This according to research conducted over the past 20 years by a team from the University of Tel Aviv, Israel.
Researchers found that workers who have low social support, or it could be said to be less sociable, a greater death risk 2.4 times compared with workers who many associate.
Research carried out by looking at the health records 820 working adults, aged 25-65 years. They worked an average of 8.8 hours per day with various risk factors of psychological and physical condition. Their work also varies, some of the corporate finance, healthcare, and manufacturing.
They were asked about relationships with superiors and colleagues in the office kerjan.Are co-workers or superiors friendly, fun, or vice versa. During the study, there are respondents who died, most of them proved to have less intimate relationships with superiors and colleagues.
According to research, lack of emotional support in the office, prompting workers to increase the risk of death by 140 percent, within the next 20 years. This compares with the workers who get a lot of social support at work.
"We spent most of his time in office and did not have much time to meet friends at the weekend. Therefore, the office involved is very important in terms of emotional and social support," said Dr. Sharon Toker from the Department of Organizational Behavior, University of Tel Aviv, which also head of research, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
He added, this study also revealed that emotional support becomes an important indicator in terms of health conditions in the future.
Another suggestion, the importance of coffee corner, where workers can sit back while chatting. This could be a space to build a close relationship or at least know each other.Or, made informal social outings and family gathering on a regular basis.
The discovery, published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology revealed that one's willingness to take risks in depending on it to wash hands before or not.
The researchers found that those who clean your hands with soap after contemplating the unpleasant events are more likely to make a bold move than those who do not wash their hands.
As reported by Science Daily, the research was conducted by Rami Zwick University of California in collaboration with Alison Jing Xu of the University of Toronto, and Norbert Schwarz of the University of Michigan.They mention that it is influenced by the 'magical beliefs' (magical beliefs) that is the feeling that you can predict and influence a decision with a measure of control that is not appropriate in a situation.
This study included 59 business students at a university in North America. Half of the respondents were asked to recall events that benefit financially and the other half were asked to recall events that are financially detrimental.
Furthermore, they were asked to evaluate a hand cleaning products that are not associated with the events that befall them. All respondents evaluate the product. Half of the respondents were asked to use the product, while half were only asked to analyze the shape and impression of the product without trying it.
Then, they tested to make a decision as a chief executive. They must decide whether to adopt or reject the recommendations for improvement of products.
The choice, if they maintain the existing product, they will receive the same benefits. If they adopt the recommendations for improvement, clappers received tergantu consumer response is not yet clear. His research, 75 percent chance of acceptable, and 25 percent disapproved.
The researchers found that those who remember the incident unfortunate and clean their hands, as well as those who recalled the benefit and do not clean their hands are more likely to choose the risky option.
Of those who remember the incident unfortunate and clean their hands, 73 percent choose the risky option, while only 36 percent who recalled the incident unfortunate and do not clean their hands took the risky option.Of those who remember the incident lucky 77 percent who do not wash their hands to take risky choice, while only 35 percent wash their hands to choose a risky option.
This may sound absurd. However, rubbing the hands alone can help you more confident.So, there's nothing wrong if you wash your hands before taking a decision.
