【医療保健】【智慧繃帶取代傳統繃帶】

【医療保健】【智慧繃帶取代傳統繃帶】
【智慧繃帶取代傳統繃帶】
哈佛醫學院與麻州綜合醫院的化學家艾萬斯(Conor Evans)在2010年拜訪了聖安東尼軍事醫療中心,他檢查在戰場上的受傷士兵,發現傳統技術無法妥善控制傷口的含氧量,當傷口復原狀況不良時,也無法提供警告。他說:「這些外科醫生的能力令人讚歎,但是他們所用的感測器就沒那麼聰明了。」
因此,艾萬斯嘗試研發智慧繃帶,他和同事首先研究會和不同含氧量起反應的染料,並添加奈米分子控制染料的活性,接著設計出能顯示傷口復原狀態的液態繃帶。艾萬斯表示:「繃帶會根據含氧量改變顏色,就像交通號誌一樣,從綠色變為黃色、橙色或紅色。」這項技術在2014年成功通過動物實驗,預計今年進行人體試驗。

【來長點學問】 未來廾年的台灣健保制度

【假如.....】Per la gloria d'adorarvi <美麗的眼睛> (續)

【假如.....】Per la gloria d'adorarvi <美麗的眼睛> (續)   

今日出外等公車, 公車老爺們脫班, 反正, 閒著也是閒著,
但腦袋瓜兒歇不下來, 就神遊起來了; 想到當年高中歷史老師,
出了個歷史系博士班的問題, 問, 【假如.....】那埃及女王
的鼻子生來就低了兩寸, 那西洋史會如何演變呢? 這種神仙
級的題目, 誰也答不上來; 接著, 利用這引子, 那位對中外
歷史及地理都己貫通的老先生, 就開講東西羅馬帝國是如何
分裂, 加上基督教分裂, 東方正教, 從 Contantinpole 向東
發展,等等, 聽得同學們如醉如癡 (我想阿光的第一志願,
為何是歷史系, 是打從這兒來的吧!) (註: 那老師並沒說,
即使女王 Cleopatra 沒鼻子, Julius Ceasar 為了權力,
還是會聯婚的, 天要下雨, 娘要嫁人, 這歷史都是註定好的,
想改? 沒門兒!)

接著, 公車還沒來, 再繼續神遊, 【假如.....】當初那兩顆
子彈, 一顆正中那主兒的腦門心, 第二顆也順便, 把旁邊的
呂大嘴也一併料理了, 那我們的歷史又不知何如了; 再下來,
一年多前, 【假如.....】那個連老爺子, 腦子不犯糊塗, 不堅持
他那跟白癡沒兩樣的笨兒子出來選 (當時, 我的法國外甥
女婿正在台灣,問我, 我非常非常地有信心告訴他,藍營那邊,  
即使弄個西瓜出來, 也能當選, 他笑到摔跌到椅子下面);

下面,要切到今天的正題了; 昨日, 貼文了標題的音樂, 那旋律
在腦中縈繞不已, 連想到, 幾年前,  Vangelis 樂團中的一天才,
把流傳近千年的 Canon 樂譜改寫, 找人配詞, 交給一原團員,
自組新團 (Aphrodite's Child) 的 Demis Roussos

Rain and Tears -   (Collection 可一直聽,支支悅耳動聽)
Vangelis - Amazing Grace - Bagpipes instrumental

(註 : Canon 這古曲, 一直以來,有人在用不同方式表達, 有用變調的
五花八門, 目不暇及, 多用在福音頌唱; 不過, 改過的曲名各具千秋, 
韻味無窮;) 下面找了些, 喜歡的, 去試聽一下; 

Katherine Jenkins - Pachelbel's Canon
https://goo.gl/WfmK28

Pachelbel's Canon in D Major - Los Pop Tops
 "Transformation of Pachelbel's Canon" by Nanae Mimura

特別插播一下, 五, 六年, 我就把曲出色的版本都聽了, 發覺,
在很多結婚典禮上, 多採用這首曲子, 一時不解其理, 立即發揮
一番科學辦案的功夫, 經多方察証, 答案水落石出, 特此分享之;
原來此曲令人感動, 賺人熱淚能力指數破表, 女娃兒聽了後,
對站在面前的臭男生的所有缺點, 像挖鼻孔, 上完馬桶不沖水
的惡行惡狀, 聽了這曲後, 全拋到九霄雲外去了, 因為她是昏了
頭了, 你大可斷言, 女人不昏, 男人就結不了婚; 古人真是神了,
這個  "婚" 不就是說得太白了; 而新娘的爹, 也堅持選這首曲子,
為何? 因為, 這婚禮所有費用, 全是他付的, 你想一想, 自己心
疼得不得了的寶貝女兒, 好不容易拉拔大, 就這麼被這混帳小子,
不花任何點本錢, 活生生給拐走了, 這就不提了, 但辦喜事的
酒水錢, 也要我出; 皇天后土, 我就能不放聲大哭嗎? 但這一哭,
不就別人會笑我捨不得銀子嘛! 所以, 有了這曲子伴著, 即使我放聲
大哭, 別人也會說, 好感動呵! 連女方主婚人都被感動到流淚了;
懂了嗎?

寫到這兒, 就來了個【假如.....】由來儀娘娘, 以她原天生的
高吭, 稍帶沙啞的尾音, 再以她最近拜師學到的正統 Canto
唱法, 將這首 Per la gloria d'adorarvi 改用 soft rock and roll
的 rhythm 來唱, 保証一炮而紅; 

保証比這娃娃高明

https://goo.gl/JYmuvK

 
如果這種吉典新唱法反應不錯, 明後天, 再找些, 共享之

james

自評 : 可真扯到沒邊了! Hehe! 這【假如.....】是個好標題,
今後要多用;

的貼文 (持再錄於后, 並將文中提及的那位在 UCLA 主持治療的那位

含麩皮的食物; 

他在試了好多位醫生後
​, 
終於找
​
對了
​

​
​; 
這位免疫風濕科

​, 
目前臺灣

其中最出名的,
​
就是將印度南部找到的一種矮种小麥
​,

(dwarf wheat), 
加以改良後
​, 
其產量是原種的兩倍
​, 
對印度
及巴基斯坦的稻米生產
​, 
有極大貢獻
​; 
但事情凡有利
​,
則必有弊
​;
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​這缺憾就出在這
​
改良交配過程中
​, 
成份中的麩皮增加
​, 
而缺少了
一染色体
​
​; 而這缺憾
​, ​
與
若干人体質

犯沖​​, 會對其免疫系統產生
干擾
​, 
一些症狀
​, 
如免疫系統功能降低
​, 
如全身發癢等

不踫小麥製成的麵食, 及黃豆製食品, 
另外
​, ​
不沾

​
如此
​, 
不出一月
​,

維持了兩年
​, 
某日

Experiences and Prospects of Genetically Engineered Crops 
Gluten Allergy Linked to Modern Wheat?
What's wrong with modern wheat?
Three Hidden Ways Wheat Makes You Fat
The Problems with Modern Wheat
What’s Wrong with Our Wheat?
Dwarf Wheat, Another Arrow in the Backs of Americans

  1. It contains a Super Starch — amylopectin A that is super fattening.
  2. It contains a form of Super Gluten that is super-inflammatory.
  3. It contains forms of a Super Drug that is super-addictive and makes you crave and eat more.
Gluten can trigger inflammation, obesity and chronic disease in five major ways.
  1. Full-blown celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that triggers body-wide inflammation triggering insulin resistance, which causes weight gain and diabetes, as well as over 55 conditions including autoimmune diseases, irritable bowel, reflux, cancer, depression, osteoporosis and more.
  2. Low-level inflammation reactions to gluten trigger the same problems even if you don’t have full-blown celiac disease but just have elevated antibodies (7 percent of the population, or 21 million Americans).
  3. There is also striking new research showing that adverse immune reactions to gluten may result from problems in very different parts of the immune system than those implicated in celiac disease. Most doctors dismiss gluten sensitivity if you don’t have a diagnosis of celiac disease, but this new research proves them wrong. Celiac disease results when the body creates antibodies against the wheat (adaptive immunity), but another kind of gluten sensitivity results from a generalized activated immune system (innate immunity). This means that people can be gluten-sensitive without having celiac disease or gluten antibodies and still have inflammation and many other symptoms.
  4. A NON-gluten glycoprotein or lectin (combination of sugar and protein) in wheat called wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)[1] found in highest concentrations in whole wheat increases whole body inflammation as well. This is not an autoimmune reaction, but can be just as dangerous and cause heart attacks.[2]
  5. Eating too much gluten-free food (what I call gluten-free junk food) like gluten-free cookies, cakes and processed food. Processed food has a high glycemic load. Just because it is gluten-free, doesn’t mean it is healthy. Gluten-free cakes and cookies are still cakes and cookies! Vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts and seeds and lean animal protein are all gluten free — stick with those.

CAN A CONTROVERSIAL NEW TREATMENT REVERSE MEMORY LOSS?


她67歲這樣吃,成功逆轉失智症!
前陣子史考特在粉絲團上提到,阿茲海默症(或是我們常說的老人失智)很有可能是一種代謝疾病,有學者甚至稱它為「第三型糖尿病」。 
儘管每年學界投下驚人的資源研究,目前為止我們對阿茲海默症尚沒有有效的療法。藥物儘管能改善相關症狀,卻無法治療失智症本身。 
但是在2014年,有一位加州大學的學者Bredesen,竟然宣稱失智症可以被逆轉... 
案例分享 
這篇發表在【Aging】(老化)期刊上的文章,分享了幾位接受治療計畫患者的故事,以下是其中一位婦人成功戰勝失智的勵志故事: 
一位67歲婦人在過去兩年發現自己的記憶力越來越糟。她平時的全職工作需要進行大量分析,非常耗費腦力。但因為失智症,她現在被迫考慮辭去這份工作。 
她發現自己念到一份文章的結尾時,竟然已經不記得開頭在說什麼,因此她時常必須反覆地念同一段文字。她的情況惡化到記不得四位數字,如果超過四位,她就一定得把它們寫在紙上。 
她甚至會在公司回家的路上迷路、搞混家裡寵物的名字、忘記家裡電燈開關在哪。 
這位婦人的母親在60歲時也出現一樣的症狀,因為失智症越來越嚴重,她被送進了安養中心,最後在80歲那年往生。 
婦人的醫師告訴她,她將會重複她母親的命運,漸漸退化到誰都認不得,並且失去所有生活自理的能力。 
婦人知道目前並沒有好的療法,而且她也無力負擔長照費用,於是她決定結束自己的生命。還好她有一位朋友知道了這個情況,建議她轉診去接受試驗性的療法。 
在接受治療後的三個月,婦人注意到失智的症狀明顯消退。她現在可以開車不迷路、記住電話號碼、而且輕鬆做好她的工作。 
接受治療後的兩年半,她滿70歲了,仍然在原本的工作崗位上奮鬥。 
治療內容 
所以,故事中的婦人究竟是接受了什麼樣的仙丹妙藥,竟然能戰勝讓醫生束手無策的失智症? 
以下是婦人的治療內容:
01.    去除飲食中的精製碳水化合物,這讓婦人減去了9公斤之多。02.    禁吃加工食品與麩質(gluten),多吃蔬菜水果以及野生魚類。03.    開始學習瑜珈。04.    冥想,一天兩次,一次20分鐘。05.    每晚服用褪黑激素(melatonin)。06.    每晚睡滿7-8小時。07.    補充維他命B12。08.    補充維他命D。09.    服用魚油。10.    補充CoQ10。11.    加強口腔衛生,使用電動牙刷、牙線。12.    與醫師討論後,她重新開始了荷爾蒙補充療法(HRT)。13.    每天禁食至少12小時(晚餐與隔日早餐之間空腹至少12小時)。14.    運動,每週四到六天,每次30-60分鐘。
沒有尖端科技開發的神奇新藥,僅僅靠著多重生活形態改變、營養補充,婦人竟然成功擊敗了失智症。 
結語 
原文作者Bredesen與史考特都要提醒大家,這是一個規模極小(10人),且沒有對照組的臨床試驗。它的證據能力極為有限,我們還需要更大型更嚴謹的研究,才能證實這種療法的效用。 
無論如何,Bredesen召募的10位受試者中,除了一位已經嚴重失智的患者,其他九位都有主觀或客觀上的改善。其中六位已經或正在考慮辭職的患者,在接受治療後全部都重返工作崗位。 
從任何標準來看,這樣的成果都是令人振奮的。 
Bredesen提到,阿茲海默症的成因極其複雜,就像一個浴缸裡面有30個漏洞,僅僅用一個橡皮塞就想要防堵漏水,是不可能的。這也是為什麼過去的單一藥物治療,往往遭遇失敗的命運。 
但史考特想指出一點:Bredesen的治療手段,幾乎每一項都能直接或間接地改善胰島素阻抗的問題,這點相當符合之前提過的「失智症是第三型糖尿病」的概念。
