In this regard, the WHO plans to declare this week that Nigeria and Senegal have been freed from Ebola positive after 42 days of no cases of infection. Limit of 42 days by the WHO were taken from the incubation period that can live up to 21 days. To be totally safe positive, drawn boundary two times longer than the lifetime of the virus. "In male patients convalescing, the virus can persist in semen for at least 70 days. One study even showed that the virus is still there for more than 90 days," wrote WHO in the notification letter, as quoted by Reuters on Thursday (9 / 10/2014). Professor Peter Piot of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical told a press conference in Geneva, if the rule is applied two times longer then it takes at least 180 days to a region virtually free of Ebola. "Of course his advice is for victims to use condoms and not having unprotected sex for 90 days," Piot said that the first discoverer of Ebola in 1976, the WHO says Ebola is spread through bodily fluids such as blood and saliva. But note also the virus present in breast milk (ASI), urine, and semen. WHO also said to sweat yet discovered the Ebola virus that lives out through that route.

In Turkey and Uruguay, Number of Smokers Down but High Tobacco Production
Assumption about the accession Framework on Tobacco Control (FCTC) will harm tobacco farmers often exhaled by industry players. Yet the reality is not like that. Abdillah Ahsan, Deputy Head of the Institute of Demography, University of Indonesia, said that the results of research done last year showed different results. Turkey and Uruguay for example, is able to reduce the prevalence of tobacco smokers, but production is still high. "The prevalence of smokers Turkey before the treaty was 34.6 percent down to 31.5 after the FCTC. While Uruguay fell 5.7 percent from 32.7 to 27 percent after the accession treaty," said Abdillah on meeting reporters at the Indonesian Doctors Association NT , Jl GSSY Sam Ratulangie, Menteng, Central Jakarta, Thursday (09/10/2014). Not only the prevalence is down. The number of smokers in both countries also declined. In Turkey, the number of smokers fell 2 percent after the accession treaty. While Uruguay fell more significantly, which is 16 percent. Abdillah confirms that these two did not have a direct impact on tobacco production in both countries. The growth of production in Uruguay even increased up to 131 percent! "In 2002 Uruguay's tobacco production is only 2,200 tons. Upon accession treaty in 10 years, the production of 4,247 tons, an increase of 131 percent. So it is not unreasonable that the accession treaty affect the farmers," he explained again. Abdillah explained that this research has been published in the journal Demography UI. The data presented in this study were taken from the data of international institutions such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Bank. Surely, this proves that the public health service can be done by acceding to the FCTC. At the same time, the protection of tobacco farmers can also be done simultaneously. "So this is a complementary nature, can in unison. Substitution aka not influence each other," he added. "Accession FCTC first, lower prevalence and number of smokers first, and at the same time for proper regulation of tobacco farmers to increase productivity while reducing tobacco imports and increase exports," he concluded.

Fear of needles? Relax, you are not alone. 10-20 percent of the population has what is called tipanofobia or fear in this syringe. Inspired by this, a team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) to develop a pill that contains a mini needle. It may sound a horror but researchers claim these pills contain at least the needle is much easier to use and less painful when injected directly should. "With these new findings, the patient may not need to use subcutaneous infusion or taking medications (medications that must be given by injection under the skin to the area)," said one of the researchers of the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research, MIT, as quoted by Giovanni Travesco Medical Daily, Thursday (09/10/2014). Furthermore Travesco say with this pill, the drug molecules that were previously difficult to digest will no longer experience these obstacles. Efficiency is said to be even higher than subcutaneous drugs or regular injections. Similarly, certain drugs that must be administered by injection, eg, a drug that is usually made of protein. So far, doctors have to give this drug to the method of microparticles and nanoparticles, but this method is fairly expensive. "Therefore, we designed a capsule that can deliver the drug, regardless of its form effectively, directly into the gastrointestinal tract of patients," said gastroenterology experts from the MGH. Prototype or prototype for a pill containing the micro needle has a length of 2 cm and a diameter of 1 cm. The capsule is also equipped with some sort of drug storage space, as well as coated needle of stainless steel round 5 millimeters. To prove the safety and effectiveness of these capsules, the researchers tested by incorporating insulin into the digestive tract of pigs. A week after the capsule was 'swallowed' by the pigs, the researchers found that the capsule can move to the corners of the pig digestive tract, without causing any damage. Even the capsule is successfully injecting insulin into the stomach, small intestine and large intestine of the pig, so the blood sugar decreases. No less surprising, the drop in blood sugar levels proved to be faster and more significantly than using regular injections.

Find Navigation System Brain, Researchers Couple's getting the Nobel Health
The pair of researchers from Norway and a professor of English descent-Americans were awarded the Nobel health. The award was given for services they were doing research on the brain and led to the discovery of the navigation system of the brain. The award was presented to Prof. John O'Keefe, Edvard and May-Britt Moster Moster for his services to do research to find an explanation of how the brain makes a map or maps in a very complex environment. The award was made on Monday (6/10) yesterday evening, and held at the Karolinska Institute, Sweden. "The discovery made by a third researcher makes us understand that in the brain, there are certain parts that become our navigation system. So we know where we are and where we are going," said Professor Ole Kiehn, Nobel committee member of Health as well Professor at Karolinska University. Prof John O'Keefe, Director, Center for Neural Circuits and Behavior in the University College London, was first discovered brain navigation system in 1971 if it, part of the brain called the hippocampus is always active when rats were used as experimental materials are in place certain familiar. Meanwhile, Edvard and May-Britt is a pair of researchers from Trondheim, Norway. They work closely with Prof O'Keefe to record any activity that occurs in the brain's hippocampus. Their research also led to the discovery of part of the brain that regulates the navigation system. The section called Grid Cells, located in the entorhinal cortex of the brain and continually work to create a map based on what we see around. These same parts of the brain to tell where we are, have ever been to where and to where we are going. May-Britt admitted directly to dance and drink champagne when given the news that he will win the Nobel prize of Health. Even in the Norwegian television show, seen co-workers dancing and singing "Happy Nobel For You" with a rhythm like "Happy Birthday."

A study led by Sean Curran of the USC Davis School of Gerontology and the Keck School of Medicine of USC finding that secret in an experiment. Worm Caenorhabditis elegans that have been genetically modified to be involved in the experiment. These worms are not overweight even given a diet that contains a lot of sugar. For comparison, the normal worms are also given the same diet and was predictable, normal worms are becoming obese due to excess calories. "A diet high in sugar is eaten worm is similar to the Western diet that in humans," said Curran, quoted from EurekAlert, Tuesday (10/07/2014). Western diet is a kind of high-calorie foods include burgers, fries, and soda. These findings reveal that the presence of a mutation in a gene called 'hyperactive SKN-1 gene' could inhibit the formation of fat in the body. That is, foods with high calories do not make any of this worm fat. The good news, a similar genetic pathways are also possessed by humans. In humans, gene SKN-1 protein known as Nrf2.

Thanks to Crystal It, Breathing Under Water Now Not Imaginary Again
Someone who can breathe underwater without the aid of oxygen tanks and face masks may sound like a fictional comic events. But now it is no longer impossible thanks to the latest invention by Danish scientists. Called by the name 'Crystal Aquaman', scientists from the University of Southern Denmark managed to create crystalline materials are able to absorb oxygen and release it again when needed. A bucket of crystal material capable of sucking all of the oxygen in the room. Crystal capable of storing oxygen with a higher concentration of oxygen tanks thus making it more effective and efficient to carry around. One of the researchers who created the crystals, Professor Christine McKenzie said cobalt-based crystals can later be useful for patients who must always carry an oxygen tank as well as divers. "Divers may one day be able to leave his oxygen tank at home and rely on these materials for oxygen. Few grains of this material contains enough oxygen for one breath, and because the material can suck oxygen from the water around the divers do not have to carry more of the grain," MckKenzie said as quoted from the press release the University of Southern Denmark, Tuesday (07/10/2014). Mckenzie said interest is the ability of crystals to absorb oxygen and release many times. Like a sponge soaking up water, the crystals do not lose their ability to absorb and release oxygen after. Depending on the content of oxygen in the atmosphere, temperature, and air pressure. Crystal takes a few seconds, minutes, hours, or even days to absorb oxygen. Time is saved, oxygen can be removed by heating the crystal. "We saw the release of oxygen when the material is heated and vacuum. We are now wondered whether oxygen can also be removed with light as a trigger. This can have a prospect in the field of artificial photosynthesis," said McKenzie.

Short high research body regulated by DNA
Until now no one knows for sure why a person's height can vary. However, a recent study conducted in the UK found the genetic makeup plays a major role behind this. The discovery was made after a team of researchers at the University of Exeter Medical School looked at more than 250,000 people from all over Europe. Scientists from 300 institutions were included to examine their genetic makeup or DNA. From there then discovered there are 400 genes that contribute to a person's height. If there is little variation of the genetic material, will significantly influence the future of their height. "As far as we are people who were born from parents who are high will tend to be high as well. Vice versa., But we were surprised there was a more complex explanation behind it," said researcher Professor Tim Frayling as quoted by the BBC, Tuesday (7/10 / 2014). There are several genes that are known so far is anything to do with height, Prof Frayling. But it turns out there are other genes which have not been considered to be related to the formation height, it also played a role. Just as stated Prof. Joel Hirschhorn of Children's Hospital Boston. "For example, genes that turned out to play an important role in regulating bone growth. Previous scholars have never known usefulness, until finally this study appeared," said Prof. Hirschhorn who was not involved in the study. He added that some of the genes found this study also was associated with syndromes that are behind the abnormal growth in children. "Who knows this can later be used as a reference for the treatment of diseases that can be affected height, such as osteoporosis or cancer," he added.
