February 4 - World Cancer Day

February 4 - World Cancer Day. By this date, scientists have prepared the good news: in the first MGMU them. Sechenov developed a vaccine against cancer.

The vaccine is designed to treat already infected, rather than preventive health care. But first things first. No wonder they say: people with cancer die not from disease but from the treatment. Strong antitumor drugs often kill not only cancer but also healthy cells. But there is a safer approach - do not veer rights "poison", and make the immune system to fight the disease. As her whip and incite a tumor? On this question the scientists until recently had no answer. For example, when the virus enters the cell, it finally collapses, go out proteins that contain information about him, and, as on a silver platter, presented with this information the immune system.

She thought: "Aha, here the virus. We must kill him. " Treachery of tumor cells that information about it or do not leak out or pops up in part. Therefore, the immune system may miss the enemy, not even trying to compete with him. Hence, scientists have decided you need this information to convey to the immune system. From the tumor have been providing proteins that contain information about it, and enter back person.

Such developments in the U.S. began back in the 80's. Twentieth century. A recently published the results of tests on patients. Vaccine to cope with the tumor better than chemotherapy, did not cause severe disorders in other organs, but ... There were two problems. First: the vaccine were able to cook for only 50% of patients who participated in the study. If the tumor is small, then the right amount of drugs out of it can be done.

Second: the reason for the same cancer, say, a kidney, a severe vaccine works great, with average does not help at all, and when the lungs again effective. Russian scientists were able to circumvent these restrictions. They suggested: the vaccine does not always work, because information on the tumor is removed, not all. Proteins that hoarding "dirt" on her and that Americans are isolated from the tumor, made artificially. Thus decided to both problems.

According to the Russian method to get the same amount of vaccine required is 4 times smaller amount of tumor tissue. The experiments showed that: a new drug significantly reduces the growth of melanoma, prostate cancer and breast cancer. And there is real hope that very soon it can be applied to patients.

Scientists were able to discover the secret of health

Not so long ago a group of scientists from Leipzig under the leadership of Professor Howard's background Bahhema made a sensational discovery in the field of subconscious and aspects of its operation.

As stated on the pages of well-known magazine «Science», scientists were able to spend a lot of unique experiences, possible to prove the existence of a biochemical link between the nervous system and immune response. Professor von Bahhem Howard and his colleagues found that patients who experience stress not only reduces the level of leukocytes, but also changed the composition of blood.

According to scientists, the human subconscious mind is able to coordinate internal processes and influence the whole metabolism. In the event of injuries or disorders of the brain causes a chemical alteration of neural networks, storage new functional state of the brain, which, in turn, forms the so-called memory to pathology. A person becomes dependent on himself.

Group Howard von Bahhema also identified the chemicals - oligopeptides are short stretches of protein compounds. Working his way up the brain, they are used to record the subconscious interpreted the information. These results hold promise for the therapeutic effects on the human body.

According to Professor von Bahhem, our brain is inherent self-healing mechanism, capable of erasing the memory of the disability and to restore normal functioning of all organs. Changing the negative experience to positive, we influence the complex mechanism of neuronal processes and raise the level of immunity.

Unfortunately, many staff tests revealed that the impact of positive emotions on the state of the organism in humans is different. The presence of complex, psychological disorders, poor imagery and many other factors significantly reduce the susceptibility of the nervous system to the mechanisms of mental control.

Professor Howard von Bahhem for decades engaged in such research. From his hands into the light went out hundreds of articles, reports, monographs, and a dozen scientific books, where each of the lines makes us remember once again that a healthy mind - is a healthy body.

Ukrainians are treated from the internet for 500 hryvnia per hour

In the Internet there were ads on the treatment of Internet addiction. Get rid of the web offer psychologists who are developing special techniques. They say, "hovering" in the World Wide Web becomes more and more. And therefore treatment services are not cheap - about 500 USD. per hour. And, as a rule, requires dozens of sessions to resolve the issue.

SYMPTOMS. Told us a psychiatrist, director of the Center of Applied Psychology, psychotherapy and psychiatry Eugene Voronkov, called The Internet can be anyone who begins to talk less (or no longer) with family and friends, immersed in the virtual world. Basically, it concerns young people, especially those who have to spend much time at home.

"Sometimes a man does not eat, little sleep, replacing these needs time spent in the network - says psychologist addiktolog (born addiction - dependence. - Auth.) Ruslan Ilchenko. - The person begins to lie about what not to do something because of the Internet. "

According Ilchenko is subspecies of Internet addiction: "Sex, when the patient sits on a porn site, watching erotic videos. Gambling and just dive in sotsseti that knocks a person out of a real society. These people are usually not enough "real" friends. "

HOW TO TREAT. Experts say - to treat Internet addiction is more complicated than, for example, alcohol and drug: "Its main danger - zavualirovannost when it seems that there is no harm to man, his family, it does not work - says Voronkov. - To treat Internet addiction need only psychotherapy, pills will not help. Sometimes, of course, when the lack of 5-10 hours of therapy, but it is very rare. In one case, it took 80 hours to rescue 19-year old boy. He sat at night in online games, afternoon sleep, because of this it had been thrown out of high school, where he studied for 2 years. Slowly but surely, within a few months, we managed to redirect his passion for a useful direction - he took a job at a company associated with the programming. "

His colleague Ilchenko sure that will help group therapy: "We must teach people to communicate with real people. We also teach how to properly use the Internet, not to become addicted. For example, configure antivirus software to block porn, block social networks. At work should deploy the monitor so that all saw it. It is psychologically will deter people in the desire to "divide" on the web. Or you may ask colleagues, that they followed you and warned, if you are too long for the Charite unnecessary sites.
