The neurophysiological reaction uncovers PTSD.



The Ukrainian conflict brought the horrors of war front of people's eyes. And one of the things, that tells if the person has been in a conflict area is PTSD. PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder),  or "hidden memories", are forming because of traumatic stress. Or suddenly starting traumatic stress like in cases where a grenade explodes near the person. 

PTSD is a disease where the person will not remember a thing about a stressful situation. Things like being in the combat zone. Or some other suddenly starting violent stress is causing PTSD. PTSD can form in accidents and normal street violence.

The normal PTSD case is this. The victim will suddenly face extremely bad violent situations like car accidents or powerful and violent attacks. That thing causes a situation, where the brain links memory to the wrong place, and it will not remember what happened. Things like stress hormones and other things like headaches, and simultaneously repeating nightmares are the marks that a person has some kind of PTSD. 

PTSD uncovers that person has faced traumatic stress sometimes. Things like images of similar things like combat helicopters in the cases where the soldier has PTSD cause a very strong neural reaction. Same way. If the person sees a similar car that caused an accident, the neural reaction uncovers the PTSD or attempts to hide the traumatic situation. 

The symptoms and the reactions in the brain are always similar. By collecting data from official PTSD cases. Researchers can make a matrix that they can use in the cases where they want to compile reactions. And that thing makes it possible to uncover hidden stress. There is, of course, the possibility that the person plays PTSD and just doesn't want to tell about the stressful situation. 

All PTSD cases are not caused because of being in the war zone. And the thing that forms this very interesting condition is the surprisingly fast starting stressful situation. Researchers used PTSD to research in the "Project Blue Book". In that research, they tried to find out was somebody tried to hide the UFO cases. The results of that study are classified because those medical files were confidential. 

Things like  CT, MEG and PET scanners are making brain research more effective than ever before. Those scanners can also make it possible to analyze the EEG and decode the signals that are traveling in the brain. That information can make it someday possible that researchers can project people's memories on the computer screen.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
