The Neurogastroenterology, discipline that connects the brain to the stomach

emotional reactions affect the functioning of the digestive
studies of individual relationships experienced since childhood are essential to determine the causes of gastrointestinal diseases, caused by irritable bowel syndrome

emerged 15 years in medicine a science that establishes the relationship between emotions and the body as they can affect the human body, it is the Neurogastroenterology. It also explains the presence of neurons in the intestinal tract and in the brain that are capable of causing crisis, or any other syndrome that affects the individual, recognized as one of the main irritable bowel syndrome.

Thus, the gastroenterologist Carlos Paez said at a news conference with students of Social Communication of the Universidad de Los Andes-Táchira, there are two types of brains, "one considered the enteral nervous system, which characterized by the relationship of brain and digestive tract, and central nervous system, which would the emotional brain tions. "


Paez continued to explain that the enteral nervous system consists of larger amounts of neurons with respect to the central nervous system, and also is responsible for producing symmetrical movements in the intestines, however, when people have emotional problems these movements are out of control with "asymmetric intestinal contractions," he said.


This irregular functioning digestive system causes irritable bowel syndrome according Paez is one of the major diseases that occur in Neurogastroenterology, where there are diarrhea or constipation, pain and anxiety disorders, not necessarily only due to a stomach problem caused by poor food intake, but emotional behaviors that adversely affect this part of the body.

"The mind controls our emotions, react according to the environment, controlling our lives," said Paez. Thus, emotions are directly involved in the body of the person in crisis manifesting as fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, poor concentration or memory loss, and in turn ulcers, gastritis, hypertension, and gases.

These statements are regarded as psychosomatic illnesses, which recognizes Neurogastroenterology through communication with the patient. To do so, Paez said that to find an accurate diagnosis must be made "a story psychobiographers, referred to seek aspects of childhood that are reflected in adulthood, and can be considered emotional trauma as a victim of sexual abuse. "
emotional traumas generate anxiety disorders, cognitive and physiological and compulsive behavior of cigarette smokers and intake of certain kinds of foods, negative thoughts, tachycardias and constant sweating.

Similarly, the stress is emotional, alters the nerves and acts directly with the brain, by excess secretion of the hormone adrenaline does not produce antibodies or altering the immune defenses of the person, so it is weak and may suffer from any illness.
Paez said that doctors often do not determine the cause and the exact problem, since "they do not speak with patients, perform only an endoscopy, but to clarify one of the most common syndromes such as irritable bowel, there to have the art of communicating. "
People usually tend to deny their problems, "it is important to communicate to help you recognize and accept what ails them, be aware of the disorders," said Paez. The Neurogastroenterology can be considered a therapy that seeks to provide a response to patients of their ailments were determined by using doctor-patient communication diagnosis and appropriate treatment, either drugs or a change in eating habits.

How Often Do Nhl Players Get New Gear

involving 21 projects scientists at the UNET V

biodegradable plastic that avoids the danger of environmental sustainability

are incorporated in this edition Award of new ideas aimed at the music category and the environment, in addition to the existing and Technical Innovation, Social and Process Design and Improvement

"Learn Four in a 2x3" "Paths of Carabobo", "Tree Project: community and educational project of tree planting," "interactive Geography," "ECOTECH, educational tool," "educational program to encourage the recycling habit children in special education "and" Bioplastic, Biodegradable plastic " Are some of the 21 papers presented by students of various races on the premises of the University experimetal del Tachira (UNET) contestants for the prize ideas that seeks to promote research and reward innovation in the work of these students.

In one of the new categories such as the environment is the project of "Bioplastic, Biodegradable plastic, created by Manual Rendon, Gabriel Hernández Camps and students Dirley career Unet Environmental Engineering, in order generate a feasible measure to eradicate the environmental pollution from the accumulation of plastic waste in place risk the proper functioning of the ecosystem.

For one of its creators, Manuel Rendon said, "This idea combines durability with versatility, since it must be borne in mind that plastic is a material harmful to nature because it takes about 1200 years to decompose into small particles, causing pollution in the environment. "For this reason, the accumulation of plastic will be in an unbalanced way in the future as in some 100 years according to international experts will be launched at sea or in space.

time research for the project was completed in two years dealing with both the theoretical and practice, using various scientific tests to determine the viability of the product created. So Rendón said "mixed plastic biodegradable polymers with synthetic polymers derived from the crude, capturing the property of the first biodegradable polymer and the strength of the second synthetic polymer. The idea was to synthesize these features to create the proposed plastic. "

Similarly, members of the project was coordinated by specialist teachers in chemistry from UNET subjecting them to laboratory tests, so Rendón said "we worked with high temperatures polymerisation process, scientific experiments that after we check our main objective, classifying it as a thermoplastic material. " It can replace 95% of commercial plastic applications, the commonly used in all parts of general use as domestic, for a biodegradable plastic that can contribute to the environment.

The biodegradation period of this plastic is 10 to 25 years in nature, allowing the disposal of these wastes in a smaller range of time the commercial plastic, which takes 1200 years. Also, after testing these students found that biodegradable is able to resist the action of substances such as gasoline, alcohol, chlorine, diesel and tinner, making it more resistant than others.


On the other hand, according to Ángel Gil, a member of the organizing committee Ideas Award "The goal is for students to participate and go Unet each edition incorporating new students in careers, as this is an award provides a platform for national awards including the Eureka Prize, which in 2007 succeeded in obtaining five awards of the seven projects registered . "Any project can be presented to participate, just have a requirement for feasibility and relevant to the been providing benefits.

evaluation performed by a jury of 15 teachers of different races UNET which take into account creativity, innovation, idea, and the viability of the project, awarding the top three spots with the delivery of money, as well delivery of two special mentions, and Art and Environment Initiative.

Also, students of the "Bioplastic, Biodegradable plastic, expected to provide the advantages of the product to society, because it is composed of readily available materials that are economically low," that future marketing would viable because the costs not represent a disadvantage from the point of view, which favors the replacement of the plastic by other employees at present, "said Rendón.

"In the near future we will do a test to determine the polymers used in more specific applications and daily use and so needed to sell the intellectual property of plastic, and market," said Rendón. Therefore, research efforts are supported daily national and regional level, because they are created to meet needs not only in Táchira, but also internationally, providing solutions for both environmental, economic and social.

Prize Ideas The V edition of the Addiction

Geography interactive, fun tool for children

the days 02.03 and 04 July in the library of the University N ational Experimental del Tachira (UNET) will be taking out the V edition Contest Prize Ideas ", which is a initiative that seeks to create a culture of innovation in the population.


21 projects and 32 participants form the template for this year, all of these, except one, are students of this house of study, the various races, while only a young man comes UNEFA of Carabobo, and since it is pursuing a free chair UNET has the right to participate in this contest.


The award is based on 3 main categories, social innovation, technical innovation and process improvement, this year special feature 2, which are for art and environment initiative, and 3 honorable mentions, which can be distributed in any major category. The awards are for major 2.000Bsf, 1.000Bsf for special categories and 750Bsf for honors, as reported by Angel Gil, a member of the organizing committee of the competition.


Gil went on to explain that the winners will be chosen by a jury of 15 teachers of the UNET, of different races, which will have to assess aspects such as creativity, The report, presentation and above all, the feasibility of projects. The organizing committee consists of seven professors from the same university. After this event, the best projects, which will not necessarily be the winners-only will be nominated by the UNET the national competition "Eureka."


Among the projects presented, is that presented by Andreina Uzcategui and Luis Contreras, students of Computer Engineering, "Geography Interactive, dare to know Venezuela" which consists a multimedia tool that is aimed at children between 8 and 12 years (4th, 5th and 6th grade) to learn Venezuela.


"Children do not know the country and they want to know," said one of its creators, this is the reason that drives them to create this project. The idea is to use the constructivist pedagogy, children to create their own knowledge and break a little with the Venezuelan education scheme, which is conductive, that all information is mediated by the teacher and students must learn by rote, repeating over and over states and capitals, or the flora and fauna.


The tool is designed in adobe flash, and is divided into four sections, the first and foremost, is an overview of the states with their capitals , its flora, fauna, its major national parks, his shield and anthem, this section is very interesting, because in internet there is no page where you get all these data, we must investigate different, whereas with this tool concentrated in one place.


The second section of this interactive program is Venezuela in the world, in c ual children can learn about the countries bordering the Our well as the latitude where we stand. The third part is the most visited children, as is that of interactive games that will be varied and contain, for example, puzzle map of Venezuela, where the children should assemble the map sheets of the states, and will finalize the names, as well as the association of images, especially national parks, so that upon seeing a photograph associated know how and where park is located.


The last section is the test of knowledge, which will not be evaluated quantitatively, but will help the parent, teacher or the students themselves know what aspects are failing. With this tool does not aim to remove or replace the classes, but seek to complement them in a didactic way, to reinforce the skills being taught in the classroom.


software is not yet complete, its creators are working on it and hope to finish it and find ways to bring the schools to be implemented.

How Should My Cervix Feel Just Before My Period

ideas ... technology: a new disease

Melissa Gomez Di Tomaso

There are all kinds of addictions and dependencies, from drugs and alcohol to cleanliness and order, and in a changing world, in terms of technology expertise, to be informed and have the newest equipment or appliances, can cause Rather than a mere curiosity or whim, vulva is an addiction.


According to the Royal English Academy, an addiction is defined as: "The habit of who lets himself be dominated by the use of one or more toxic drugs, or the inordinate affection to certain games or behavior ( www.rae.es ). And in many cases, this obsessive attitude can be seen in friends, relatives or acquaintances, so it is important to know the topic to determine if you are in the presence a technology addict or if you yourself fall into this group.


Computers, cell phones, music players, kitchen utensils, home alarms, cameras and video recorders, televisions, video players, embedded systems of sound and nonsense like beverage coolers USB cable are now in stores, whether physical or virtual, and are artifacts by which addicted to technology they crave to the point of investing all their pay on them.


In the specific case of Tachira, Venezuela, being addicted to technology becomes an even more complicated, since the new technological inventions takes to get to local shops, and when these do, are no longer the latest or the most modern, therefore, these addicts are turning to Internet shopping or traveling to countries like U.S., Europe or some of the most innovative in technology, Asian countries like Japan .


Otto Rosales, a sociologist and professor at the Universidad de Los Andes (ULA), is the problem of addiction as "a new language that society has" and makes reference as any new language, you have to know and know how to handle it. The theme of technology you can not escape, since it is the future for all, but you have to know what the most appropriate way to treat it so I would not fall into total dependency.


In countries such as Venezuela, have to be extra careful when it comes to cutting edge technology, as it is believed that something is very new when it really is old in other countries, continues to explain Rosales. And sometimes, the perception of the use of these new techniques do not change with the speed of the media and use new technologies with old technology.


Táchira seen in the lot is the fascination with technology, says Rosales, there is a seduction for all that is new, the latest, who owns the latest technology will admired by those who can not buy, people are paralyzed and was surprised with this news.


In his opinion, we must be alert to all these new languages, because people still have not finished digesting them, and believe that we are not ready for such technology.


contrary position of Victor Riascos, who has devoted much of his life to be immersed in new technologies, working for many years in service, going to create their own digital media company, which currently is responsible for installing and maintaining computer equipment, home or business alarms, among other things, a certain part of the population of San Cristóbal.


admit an addiction is not easy, however, Riascos agree that I love being at the forefront of technology, know the newer laptops or home computers, cell phones that have not yet come to Venezuela, alarms that become new in a city like San Cristobal, including other things.


"I try to stay informed, it helps me make more sales to my clients, I have to show the last thing you bought in order to continue selling as new "Riascos said. In your business sells technology to those who are not as informed on their own, and the only way to bring these artifacts is Their possession, and can display the live action and not just images or video.


Every time you sell a new laptop before, which does not have a life greater than 2 or 3 months, but with the sale and a little more, he manages to buy the latest, the same goes with video cameras or photo. Since being an addict to technology is not economical.


This addiction, which years ago was not as strong as now, is growing at incalculable, since every day there are more facilities for equipment, and more companies take more products to the street. Our future is full of technological advances, can not escape, however, must be controlled at the time of the purchases, to avoid falling into addiction.
