Indian scientists managed to find a way without using needles to vaccinate at all.

Scientists at King's College London for the first time demonstrated their ability to provide life-dried vaccine into the skin without the traditional needle and found this technique is strong enough to activate specific immune cells in the skin.

The technical advancements offer a potential solution to the challenge of providing a live vaccine to some resource-limited countries globally, including India, without the need for refrigeration. A cheaper alternative to syringes, will also eliminate the risk of contamination of needles and pain-free.

"We have found that it is possible to maintain the effectiveness of live vaccines by means of drying the sugar and apply it on the skin by using a micro needle. We also discovered the role of certain cells in the skin that acts as a monitoring system," said Dr. Linda Klavinskis of King College told the Times of India.

This latest discovery involves a silicone mold to make micro needles made ​​of sugar that can be dissolved when inserted into the skin.

Recent studies have mentioned that bad weather, such as winter rainy season, can increase blood pressure and heart attack risk.

Researchers from Glasgow University also said that the high rainfall and a lack of sunlight can cause changes in blood pressure.

Although the findings of this sounds quite strange, the blood vessels near the surface of the skin will shrink in cold weather - to conserve heat - which then affect the blood pressure rising.

Changes in blood pressure, as reported by the Daily Mail (22/5), making the body is under stress and increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. The researchers say that doctors should know how the weather outside when measuring blood pressure patients.

This will help them determine which patients are sensitive or not, so that doctors can tailor the right treatment for the patient.

Recent study says that eating sweets on a regular basis can not trigger a heart attack or even weight gain.

The study was conducted on more than 5,000 Americans. The result did not find an association between poor health and eating candy on a regular basis.

People who eat sweets every day are not at risk of being overweight or developing cardiovascular disease than those who do it once a week or not at all. As reported by the Daily Mail (22/5), this research was supported by the National Confectioners Association.

"We did not find an association between the frequency of sweets consumption and increased body mass index or cardiovascular risk factors among adults," said Mary Murphy, a registered dietitian from the Centre for Chemical Regulation and Food Safety, in Washington DC, USA.

But researchers say that does not mean a person should not eat sweets as much as he wants.

Are you among those who use the right brain or left brain? Now there is an easy way to find out, just by the way you pick up the phone. A study showed that the left brain dominant people tend to wear the phone on the right ear, and vice versa.

A new study from Henry Ford Health System in West Bloomfield Michigan found that 70 percent of 700 people holding their phones on the same side as the dominant hand, as reported by the NY Daily News (21/05).

Approximately 95 percent of the human population has a dominant left brain, and they tend to be more active use of the right hand. These results can be used by experts to determine the language centers in the brain prior to brain surgery.

Of all the participants who took the survey, 90 percent more likely to use the right hand in which 68 percent use the right ear. About 25 people use the left ear and seven per cent of people use both ears alternately. For people who are left-handed, 72 percent used the left ear, 23 percent use the right ear, and five percent use both ears.

What about you, do you usually use your phone in the left or right ear?

Aspirin is commonly known as an antidote for heart disease can not seem to provide the same benefits for all patients. The study found that the effectiveness of aspirin may have different effects depending on the individual patient.

Even so, researchers have developed a way to determine the effectiveness of aspirin in each patient so that the physician can determine recommendations on their use of aspirin. Cardiologist from the University of Florida have discovered a series of questions that can be used to determine whether the patient should be taking aspirin every day to treat heart disease.

"Not all patients who have coronary heart alike.'s Is growing so we need to check the condition of the patient every few years to see any change," said Dr. Ki Park, an expert from Florida, as reported by the Third Age (21/05 ).

Most studies on the effects of aspirin have ever had a heart attack has always focused on men. Park and his colleagues Dr. Anthony A Bavry find their analysis of existing research on the effects of aspirin are mostly in men, not women.

"In this study we highlight the range of knowledge that we do not know whether aspirin should be used or not. Still a chance to improve and optimize the results of this study," said Bavry.

Most people take aspirin to treat or prevent heart disease. But even though most people think aspirin is a safe drug, aspirin can also cause bleeding in the digestive tract. So it is advised not to take aspirin at random before consulting with a healthcare provider.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition that occurs due to a reduction in the amount of cartilage in the joints. Severe injury and genetic background can lead to a reduction in bearing joints, especially the shoulder. Symptoms of osteoarthritis include pain, stiffness and inflammation in the joints. Here are some of the causes of pain in the shoulder, as reported dukehealth.org.

1. Bone spurs

Bone spurs is a condition that indicates the extra bone growth in normal bone. In medical terms, this condition is known as osteophytes. Bone spurs usually occur in the joints of the spine, feet, shoulders, hips, hands and knees.

2. Cartilage and tendons soften

Tendons soften as you get older or when stressed, which softened cartilage can lead to a lack of bone resistance.

3. Muscle weakness

Weakness occurs mainly due to hormonal reasons. You no longer produce the amount of testosterone as when you are young, so the muscles are no longer as strong as before.

4. Softened bones

This condition is known as osteoporosis, and even though it did not hurt, this condition will make you vulnerable to bone damage.

This is the cause of the joint pain that you feel in the shoulder. Do not dismiss any complaint that you feel. Consult a doctor immediately to receive medical treatment.

Sport has long been known to have benefits to overcome depression or mental problems, when taken alone or in combination with other treatments. But recently researchers found that aerobic exercise is the most effective way to cope with depression.

It was discovered by researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. These findings suggest that aerobic exercise is the most effective for patients with depression. Meanwhile, a similar situation was found in other types of strenuous exercise.

Chairman of the study published in the Journal of Psychiatric Practice recommends that patients who are depressed do three to five sessions of aerobic exercise, with time 45-60 minutes each session, as reported by the Third Age (10/05).

The data showed that patients had increased and showed fewer signs of depression after four weeks of aerobic exercise. Even so researchers recommend that patients remain to exercise at least 10 to 12 weeks to be able to get the optimum effect in the treatment of depression.

Researchers found the number of patients who stopped exercising, but it is beneficial to their mental health. Even so, the exercise undertaken still be useful. To that end, the researchers should support patients who are depressed to do aerobic exercise, although not too routine.

Most people eat too much sugar or more than the recommended daily amount, which is 100 calories of sugar for women and 150 calories for men per day. Reducing sugar intake can prevent some serious health problems. Well, here are some bad effects of too much sugar, as reported by Livestrong.

Dental problems
Bacteria in the mouth can break down sweet foods and carbohydrates into acids that can cause cavities and tooth decay. Bacteria can eat whatever tucked in the crevices of the teeth, so the sticky foods such as raisins, soft candy or bread can cause damage to the teeth after eating. Reduce your daily sugar intake to prevent tooth decay.

Weight problems
People who drink sodas and fruit juices, the main source of sugar, are more likely to consume more calories than those who did not. They also tend to eat less nutritious foods that increase the risk of obesity. Reduce consumption of carbonated soda can reduce the intake of calories by 132 calories per can.

Heart problems
Too much sugar can cause high blood pressure, triglycerides and bad cholesterol, thereby increasing heart disease risk. Diabetes is also a health concern for people who love to eat too much sugar. To have a healthy heart, change your sweets with healthy carbohydrates such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains, coupled with low-fat foods and plenty of exercise.

It is better to prevent than cure, right? So from now on, limit your daily intake of sugar intake.

Stressful job can change the way the body handles fat leads to an increased risk of heart disease.

Spanish researchers found that stress affects how the body metabolizes fat, which in turn increases the level of bad cholesterol. They also say that the emotional stress associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease as a result of unhealthy habits such as smoking, unhealthy diet, and several other factors.

But new research shows that stress can lead to dyslipidemia, a disorder that alter lipid levels and lipoproteins in the blood. Researchers at the Hospital Virgen de la Victoria in Malaga and Santiago de Compostela University analyzed the relationship between job stress and different parameters related to how fatty acids are metabolized in the body.

The study, published in the Scandinavian Journal of Public Health was conducted with more than 90,000 workers who undergo medical check-ups.

"The workers who stated that they had experienced difficulties in dealing with work during the previous 12 months (8.7 percent of the sample) had a higher risk of suffering from dyslipidemia," said Carlos Catalina, a clinical psychologist and expert, told the Daily Mail.

Dyslipidemia resulted in an increase in the amount of bad cholesterol and lowers good cholesterol. In particular, people who suffer from workplace stress more likely to have high levels of bad cholesterol, good cholesterol levels are too low and are more likely to develop deep vein thrombosis.

You would have to know the negative effects of smoking marijuana. But it turns out marijuana also has benefits. Recent research has shown that people who regularly smoke marijuana have a lower risk of developing diabetes.

Marijuana users had lower insulin levels. This indicates control blood sugar better. If the link between cannabis and prevention of diabetes clarified, then it is likely researchers will develop diabetes treatments using the substance in cannabis, namely THC (tetrahydrocannabinol).

The study, published in The American Journal of Medicine found that people who smoke marijuana regularly have insulin levels 16 percent lower compared with those who never smoked marijuana.

Those who used marijuana also known to have a smaller waist, while a large waist circumference can increase a person's risk of developing diabetes.

Currently marijuana is generally used in patients with cancer or experiencing severe pain. The use of marijuana as medicine is allowed in 18 states, as reported by the Daily Mail.

The study looked at 4,657 patients. Approximately 579 people use marijuana, 1,975 marijuana use in the past but had stopped, and 2,013 people have never used marijuana. Insulin and glucose were then measured through participants' blood samples after fasting for nine hours.

As a result, users of cannabis had insulin levels 16 percent lower than those who had never used marijuana at all. Murray Mittleman of the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Research Unit at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center also explained that in previous studies researchers found that rates of obesity and diabetes is lower in cannabis users.

Although the substance in the cannabis plant is known to control and prevent diabetes insulin, Indonesia would allow the use of marijuana for treatment?

A recent study says that most women bag contains more bacteria than a toilet.

The study also reveals that one in five women's handbags contain bacteria harmful to health. While the dirtiest item in a woman's handbag is a cream bottle far more bacteria than the toilet seat.

The good news, lipstick and mascara were found to contain bacteria as well but not as much cream bottle in her handbag.

According to researchers from the Initial Washroom Hygiene, handbags made ​​of leather is the best place for bacteria to grow and thrive.

"Handbags most frequently touched by women. So should a woman have to be diligent in cleaning hands and bag to minimize health risks from contamination," suggested Peter Barratt researcher, as quoted by the Daily Mail.

Previously, a study has also been mentioned that some point in the kitchen workplace is more dirty than toilet.

The easiest way to prevent a bacterial disease is more frequent hand washing and avoiding touching the face with hands habits directly.

Researchers from the American Chemical Society finally managed to do the test without stitches to close the wound. They precisely using laser-based solder gold.

Solder containing gold particles are able to form a kind of cover the wound so painful suture method does not need to be done.

Researchers believe that this method can replace close wounds with how to sew leather. The proof they successfully closed the wound in pig intestine area with the gold-based laser soldering.

Technique called Laser Tissue Welding (LTW) is also more dense in closing wounds and leave scars that are not too obvious.

As reported by the Daily Mail, Kaushal Rege and his team of researchers used a network called plasmonic nanocomposite solder - material containing gold nanorod. Nature was elastic so as to close the wound tightly and effectively.

Researchers then plan to investigate the matter in depth to determine whether similar methods can be used in the case of certain other injuries.

Using a pacifiers may protect infants from sudden death syndrome, according to new research.

In detail, the newborn is given a pacifiers has a small risk of dying from sudden death syndrome. Because the presence of cardiac pacifiers to control infants.

In addition, researchers from the Monash Institute of Medical Research, Clayton found that the protection of the pacifiers will still be felt baby pacifiers fell out of his mouth even when he sleeps.

"Sudden death syndrome may be caused by the failure of the baby to wake up from sleep when breathing stops or drastically reduced blood pressure," said Professor Rosemary Horne, as quoted by the Daily Mail.

Meanwhile, the baby sucking on a pacifier can make it easier waking from sleep or improve cardiac control - the ability to regulate the heartbeat.

Researchers then included 37 healthy infants to be analyzed when they are napping. Researchers found that babies who suck pacifiers does have a diverse variety of heart rate. It is a sign of cardiac system responds to blood pressure in infants.

The condition persists even though the baby is not really suck pacifier.

Researchers actually do not quite understand why the pacifiers can control cardiac baby. In addition, there is a lot of positive evidence about the use of baby pacifiers. For example, infants should not be given a pacifiers before breastfeeding is completely stable - when the baby is one month old. Then the use of pacifiers should be stopped when the baby is between the ages of 6-12 months.

Sudden death syndrome usually occurs in infants, even though a healthy condition. Premature babies or low birth weight infants most at risk of developing the syndrome. Most occur at night and are rarely exact cause is unknown.

Cleaning pacifier sucking ways might be considered dirty. Most parents will clean pacifier by washing with tap water. But the researchers found that older people who clean pacifier to suck can keep children from the risk of asthma and hives.

This study does not prove that the technique may protect children from asthma or allergies. However, researchers believe that the possibility of transfer of oral bacteria and microbes of parents in children can boost the immune system and the digestive system which in turn makes the child they are exposed to a small risk of allergy or asthma.

"We know that bacteria are also important for growing children," said Dr. Wilfried Karmaus from the University of Memphis, as reported by Reuters.

In this research, scientists recruited pregnant women in one of the Swedish hospitals and followed them for three years. Of the 184 infants who were observed, 80 percent have parents with allergies. After the babies were tested at the age of 18 and 36 months.

In the first test 46 infants have eczema and 10 had symptoms of asthma. Children who use the usual dot cleaned by his mother smoked by 63 percent less likely to have eczema and 88 percent less affected by asthma.

While in the second test, when the baby was 36 months, the difference for asthma began to disappear, while babies with pacifiers are cleaned by his mother smoked still have a 49 percent lower risk of developing eczema.

Researchers believe that more research must be done to demonstrate clearly the benefits of cleaning with megisapnya dot. Before clear, researchers would not recommend this technique for the parents.

Compared to fiber, water is more potent prevent constipation

Everyone would already know that fiber needs is the best way to prevent constipation and keep the bowel movements remained smooth every day. However, a recent study showed that eating large amounts of water more potent than fiber to prevent constipation.

Results of this study emphasize the importance of water for health eating. But that does not mean a person should eat less fiber or other healthy lifestyle, said lead researcher Alayne Markland, of the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Birmingham, Alabama.

"I think that diet, fiber rich foods, and exercise, along with adequate fluid intake is still recommended," said Markland Reuters Health.

Based on data from the researchers, about 14 percent of the world's population suffer from constipation. Even so, the definition of constipation for each different experts. Constipation is often seen as a lack of bowel movements, less than three times a week. However, some researchers have found that this could be caused by the movement of the intestines and digestive tract slow. Other researchers argue that constipation is characterized by hard bowel movements experienced continuous.

Markland and her colleagues then analyzed the responses of 8,000 men and women who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2006 and 2008.

Based on the consistency of bowel movements, exercise, and eating habits, researchers found that more constipation problems experienced by women and men who are less educated. This disease does not get worse with age.

Interestingly, researchers found that regular exercise and eating fibrous foods is not related to the likelihood that a person is constipated. Constipation is precisely related to the amount of fluid consumed by someone. Approximately three percent of men and eight percent of women who consume more fluid experience constipation. While about eight percent of men and 13 percent of women who drank less constipated.

Previous research suggests that drinking water can indeed prevent constipation. However, this only applies to people who are dehydrated. When the body is sufficiently hydrated, consume more water will only make people urinate more.

Markland believes that more research is needed to determine more clearly the effect of fiber on the prevention of constipation, which is not shown in this study. In the meantime, the recommendation remains the same to fight constipation, which eat fibrous foods, exercise, and lots of drinking.

Gastric bypass is a type of surgery that is done by cutting the intestine or stomach shrink. This procedure is usually done to overcome weight problems. Researchers recently found that this operation not only helps reduce weight but also controls blood sugar.

Researchers found that gastric bypass surgery procedure changing hormones and amino acids that are produced during the digestion process. This surgery can eliminate the symptoms of type two diabetes in patients, researchers said.

In gastric bypass surgery, the stomach is separated into two parts. Food will be distributed on a smaller part so that people will be already feel full and eat less food. The study looked at four women who underwent gastric bypass surgery. During surgery, a catheter is inserted in a larger part of the stomach in patients.

After surgery, the researchers distributed food through a catheter in the stomach of the hormones produced and analyzed. The results were then compared with the activity of the hormone when food is included in the smaller part of the stomach.

The results revealed that the level of insulin and other hormones produced higher when food is digested in the stomach smaller. Amino acid levels were also higher in the small stomach, while the lower fatty acid levels.

Increased hormones, especially insulin, when the digestive process causes the patient to more easily control their blood sugar, researchers said. although this study found that gastric bypass surgery can alter the production of hormones and relieve symptoms of diabetes, but researchers found no causal link.

"This operation is an effective weapon against obesity, as a side effect of this operation can also relieve the symptoms of type 2 diabetes," said Nils Wierup, professor at Lund University Diabetes Centre in Sweden, as reported by U.S. News.

Yet researchers do not advise diabetic patients to perform gastric bypass. Researchers hope that this discovery could help them find new ways to handle the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
