Google is converted into the means of medical diagnostics

Doctors increasingly more actively they call to be turned to the search system Google, capable soak by them with the diagnosis of the most complex diseases.

In the course of experiment search machine found in the Internet correct diagnosis in 58 % difficult cases.

Researchers from the hospital of the princess of Alexandra in Brisbene, Australia, selected 26 difficult for the doctors cases from periodical Journal of Medicine, which emerges in new England, and conducted search in Google on the keywords.

Then they arbitrarily selected the diagnoses, found in the Internet, and compared them with the correct diagnoses, represented in the periodical. Of 26 cases of Google gave the correct answer into 15 of them.
In this case the experts assert that, if search with the aid of Google conduct doctors, they obtain the best result, than patients, for which with more difficulty to select correct diagnosis.

The detailed results of a study were published in the British medical periodical (BMJ). It is indicated at conclusion of article that doctor and the patients ever more and more effectively work with the Internet and frequently they use Google for retrieval for medical information.

in the course of our study we came to the conclusion that in complex, from the point of view of diagnosis the cases, it is often useful to compare diagnosis with Google.

net search machines of the type Google become important tool in clinical medicine, and to doctors it is necessary to give the habits of the use of these systems, note the authors.

The press- secretary of the association of the protection of the rights of patients has on this score another opinion: if doctors with the diagnosis of diseases begin to widely use Web sites, this cannot but cause serious uneasiness. But which will be, if they give to patient false information?

Robot said to the man: you are the pig

The Japanese irrepressible continue to create the robots, which are called to help us in the daily life. Besides the robot- housewives, the robot- guards, the robot- waiters, the robot- triggers, the robot- librarians, was created the robot -somel6e, about which site MIGnews it reported earlier.

For the identification of the gustatory variety of products and beverages the robot uses analysis on basis of infrared radiation. For the analysis it is necessary to pour out 5 milliliters of wine to the tray before the robot. After this, the light-emitting diodes of device direct infrared light to the liquid, and the light reflected from it is fixed with light-emitting diodes.

Depending on that, of what components consists by fault, the wavelength of the infrared light, which was absorbed by wine, it will differ. The prototype of robot can during thirty seconds give estimation to organic components more than 30 it is quality the fault, and also isolate into the separate categories of the type of the grapevine, which went to the preparation of each concrete wine.

Since these components are unique for the different regions, in which it is produced by fault, robot can also error-free determine, in what part of the light the beverage is produced.

However, with the Japanese robot -somel6e it were connected incident. It randomly entangled man with the hors d oeuvre, about which it gaily reported to that surrounding.

Journalist, moved with curiosity, made reporting about electronic somele slipped to robot under the nose his own hand - and it was described as the bacon.

The operator removed episode made an analogous attempt - and it was acknowledged as sharp smoked ham.

Amusing error was committed by 60- centimeter taster and to somele at the current presentation.

The Japanese are not thus far intended to let out this robot for the market, but in the following year, possibly, in sale will appear its product sensor. Price is not thus far known, but developers attempt to decrease it to 1 thousand dollars (robot itself it stands as automobile).

Hobbies - this is serious

Hobbies - this and entertainment, and the method to kill free time. Sometimes hobby is converted into the sense of life. Hobbies are different, now and then so, that it is not plotted in the head, as men it hit upon to a similar pasttime.

Barcelona decided to prove to be in front of the planet of entire after opening exhibition dedicated to the different methods of conducting the free time - salon of hobbies -2006.

The total area of exposure composed twenty six thousand square it was meter. On them are placed the stands with the proposals from more than two hundred organizations and public motions on conducting of leisure.

Interesting exhibits will be represented as for the children, so also for the adult. During the visit of the elephant of hobbies -2006 it will be possible to arrange the pickers of the radio-controlled machines, study aviamodelirovaniyem and porisovat on the enormous fabrics.

Sequential mode to the old times whipped recently the inhabitants of Spain. They gradually revive the hobby of our great-grandmothers - embroidering by small cross on the canvas. Several stands of salon are dedicated to this enthusiasm.

Drinking water will convert men into women

Hormone estrogen, which is contained in the urine of women, who assume contraceptive means, that falls into water of natural reservoirs with the sewerage drains, can lead to serious changes in the reproductive organs of fishes ob this it is spoken in the report of British agency on the environment.

For five years the scientists conducted the studies, in course of which they controlled fishes in ten rivers. In half of males they almost found roe, and many of them had female reproductive organs. The tenth part of the males could not manufacture sperm, but one fourth - produced the rejected sperm. Scientists sound the alarm, since from the river water estrogen can fall, also, into drinking water.

Fortunately, the researchers did not thus far find estrogen in the drinking water; however, this does not calm specialists. They assert that even the contemporary technologies do not make it possible to reveal the smallest particles of this hormone in the drinking water.

As asserts doctor syuzan Dzhobling, everything that we eat, that we bring to the skin, that we get down into the canalization, it occurs, in the final analysis, in the river. So that it is possible to assert that we live in the chemical cocktail, and I I think what to eat the serious foundations for worry about that, it will not happen the same, which occurs with the reproductive qualities of fish- males, with the reproductive functions of men .

Night shifts shorten the life

Work in night hours of twenty-four hours and disruption of the work of internal biological it is hour they lead to the essential reduction of life. To this conclusion came the scientists from the university Of virzhinii, after conducting experiment on the mice.

They divided downy little beasts into three groups. For one sleep periods it was displaced to six it was hour forward, for the second on so many back. The biological clock of the third group left without any changes.

Scientists were several astonished, when in the course of several months died 32% of mice, that entered into the first group. However, an even larger surprise awaited biologists, when they revealed that for the same interval of time the second group was reduced by 53%. In this case among the mice, that slept and worked in the common for them time, perished only 17% of animals.

Scientists say that they cannot accurately determine the reason for this influence of the disturbance of biological time on the lifetime; however, the results of a study speak they themselves for itself. possibly, reason consists in deficiency in the sleep or nekoyem defeat of immune system, are assumed specialists.

Nuclear energy will free the world from the dirty future

The reduction of the ejection of the gas, which produces greenhouse effect, unavoidably will lead to an increase in the price of the electricity, and this will in turn become the reason for the fact that the atomic power plants will become economically more viable. This statement made today the prime minister of Australia John Howard.

According to Howard, the cost of cleaning coal makes WITH AES, undoubtedly, more viable after the report TO UNITED NATIONS supported the use of a fuel for the nuclear fission chain reaction.

The International Atomic Energy Agency, which comes out as the political of the advisers of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD - ORGANIZATION FOR ECONOMIC COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT), warned that without the nuclear energy of the country of peace it awaits "dirty, dangerous and expensive" future, especially because the prices of the oil steadily grow.

In the report TO OECD - ORGANIZATION FOR ECONOMIC COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT is contained the forecast about the fact that the demand in the world for the electric power will be grow, in the subsequent 25 years it will increase more than by 50 percent. As far as AES is concerned, they can soak reduce the emission of carbon dioxide and become the reliable source of electricity.

This forecast appeared the week after Stern's report, who contains warning about the fact that global warming can cost the peace of the same expenditures as both world wars and the Great Depression.

Phenomenon of the human communication

A joint study of Harvard and Stanford University showed that the children 5-7- mi of years prefer to associate with the lucky and happy people, but not with the unlucky wretches. This phenomenon makes it possible to explain the special feature of human contact and the laws of the formation of social groups.

On one of the stages of experience to children they proposed to participate in the "drawing" of ten scenarios of contact with the adult. Child evaluated the adult actors, who developed their role - both positive and negative. As it proved to be, adult, which not through your fault burn into the heavy situation (for example, on the scenario, they became victims of the natural disaster) caused less sympathy than those, who "voluntarily" acted badly (for example, it rejected to entrust to child candy). Thus, experimental children demonstrated their ability to distinguish lucky people from the unlucky wretches and showed that the unlucky wretches cause in them the smallest sympathy.

Data of study are published in periodical Psychological Science.

Proof of two miracles, perfected after death, this necessary condition for the canonization.

Fire in the house? Sit down on donkey

Specifically, this recommendation was contained in the advertising leaf of the service of fire-prevention safety of Great Britain.

The fact is that within the framework of campaign on the propagation of information about the rules of fire safety, the British fire services transferred their proclamations about the methods of fight with the fire to the arrival of calculations to the different languages, including to the language of urdu, which relates to the Indian group of the Indo-European family of languages.

Specifically, this language is native for many descendants from Pakistan and India of those living in misty Al'bione.

In the original in the advertising leaf it is written, that "never jump from the windows, without having placed pillow in order although to any secure itself from the injuries", in the text on urdu picture is somewhat different: "never jump from the windows, without having preliminarily placed itself into the donkey". Error most probably lies in the similar writing of words.
Gadda - pillow and gadha - donkey.

Russian doctor invented condoms with pictures

You want to remain thin - eat at home

If you follow your weight, you one should more often have dinner house. A new study of American scientists showed that feeding in the restaurants and the cafe of woman they consume 300 additional calories during the day.

In a study participated two groups of women - sitting on the diet and not tracking after their nourishment. It is interesting that, feeding in the restaurants, women of both groups collected to 300 calories during the day more than usually.

The leader of experiment doctor timerman explains these results to those that in the restaurants the women undergo larger temptation, and as consequence, they eat more. Furthermore cooks use more than fat and other high-calorie products, than with the preparation of domestic dishes.

Specialists have long ago asserted that one of the reasons for growing obesity among the citizens OF THE USA appears the habit to feed out of the house. Now this fact is confirmed by an official study.

British scientists are intended to scrape man with the cow

British scientists request in the authorities permission to the creation of embryo from the egg cell of cow, into which will be placed human DNA.

Researchers from the university of Newcastle and royal college to London turned themselves into control according to fertilization and embryologies of Great Britain with the request to grant license for conducting of experiments and storage of cells to them.

Scientists would want to use the obtained hybrids for studying stem cells, they are not collected to give to embryo to be developed more several days.

But many political and public workers consider similar experiments as those contradicting ethics and potentially dangerous for the society.

The basic problem of geneticists remains the shortage of the human egg cells, for obtaining which is necessary the agreement of woman- donors to the surgical intervention. Stem cells necessary for the experiment can to extract on the sixth day of the development of embryo, after which genetic material is destroyed. This reason impelled scientists to turn for the permission.

Embryo must be created on the same principle as the cloned sheep of dollies, it to 99.9% is only human. From the egg cell of burenki is moved away entire genetic material, after which into it it is placed BY DNA of man.

The study of stem cells is one of the most urgent and promising trends in the contemporary science. The cells, on basis of which it is possible to grow any tissue of organisms, in the opinion of scientists, will be able soak in the treatment of such illnesses as Alzheimer and Parkinson.
