Many of the criticisms being launched about everything that surrounds the world of health 2.0, eHealth or as you call it, is the lack of serious research about their effectiveness. In other words, serves as something all this or is simply a new channel of communication and point? For many, the improvement that involves the use of internet as a communication tool is already in itself one element sufficient to continue innovating and discovering new uses. But, besides the obvious improvements in processes (cost savings, greater professional productivity), must be observed if there is some benefit in health for the patient and for the population in general. Today we will not speak of all the studies and existing reviews, but let’s remember some of the most important. Filed under: Details. Your reading with both the review of the literature House, you can learn much of everything to do with the ehealth and the use of ICTs in health. Oh, and of course we recommend the magnificent site of – Systematic review: impact of health information technology on quality, efficiency, and costs of medical care.

Review published in Annals of Internal Medicine in 2006. His conclusion, that recognizes the existence of several studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of the use of ICT to improve the quality and efficiency, is striking but alerting while no one explains how to achieve such improvements and nor explain the cost of putting up. Official site: Chimes Terry Allen Perl. -A classic article on this topic, published in PLOS in January 2011, is The Impact of eHealth on the Quality and Safety of Health Care: A Systematic Overview. In this case, the conclusion is quite desesperanzadora: little evidence, low robustness of existing studies, etc. are reported from salud.es and a final to finish question: does investigated much in Spain about ehealth? Is the use of internet useful to improve the patient’s health? To respond, we have an anecdote that we have lived in first person: in the call FIS 2011, a research group in which we participate, presented a project on the effect of virtual communities of patients in the State of health of the same. The rejection of the FIS included a paragraph that left us with an open mouth: given the rapid pace that evolving technology and social networks, the results risk be obsolete from the moment of its production, so the risk of the proposal is very high. In short: impossible to investigate on the effect of the internet on health, that this happens very quickly, and measure it is nonsense. He spends his life, who sang Pata Negra

Without hesitation Website explained all about the problem.

Sport has become a global phenomenon, seen by all mankind, and that moves vast amounts of money.

Success representing professional athletes it has become a lure for many young people with desire to succeed and achieve popularity and money quickly. Here, terry allen perl expresses very clear opinions on the subject. Parents are often accomplices, when not tyrants who want at all costs to see their hopes and failures made in their children. Also the public authorities, who have encouraged unhealthy practices in adolescents in order obtain sporting triumphs that support his political ambitions.

But if another child of the same age, spends ten hours a day in a gym acquiring muscles and improving your sport technique, it would cause general admiration. The organization Save the Children has been revealed in its latest report that this situation tends to give increasingly more frequently in all countries. The host of this year’s Olympic Games is one of the States that most violate Olympic philosophy and spirit. China has prepared with Spartan methods to an army of athletes whose only vital purpose is the achievement of a metal that hung from the neck.

Teflon is a material discovered in the early 1930s by Roy J. Plunkett. Its non-commercial name is polytetrafluoroethylene. The only company that sells this material is DuPont, the company where he worked his entire life Roy J. Plunkett since he finished his PhD in chemistry the 1936 in United States. Since its discovery, the teflon has been applied in many aspects of daily life for its special properties, and is that teflon is inert, non-toxic, waterproof, flexible, electric insulation, is not altered by the action of light, non-stick and supports high and low temperatures (does – 270?C 300?(C).

its areas of application are very disparate: aviation, spacecraft, medicine, electronics, etc. However are there any scientific studies that say that the properties of teflon that is inert and is not toxic are lost when the temperature of the material reaches about 260?C, and which follows about 15 toxic gases. This degradation can be lethal for birds and can cause some symptoms in human. In early 2005 the United States Environment Protection Agency (EPA) said that according to various scientific studies a component of teflon (the perflourooctano acid – PFOA-, insulating and resistant material to heat used e.g. in cookware) is highly toxic and hazardous to health. We must clarify that the studies have been conducted on animals and not humans, but that they conclude that this substance has caused cancer in laboratory rats, has boosted the elevation of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood causes damage to the liver and is also present in the breast milk of rats.

Although on the other hand the EPA also clarified that these experiments are inconclusive and that the acid perflourooctano is not present in teflon products such as clothes, or kitchen utensils, but that is an element that is used in its manufacturing process. However, the final product is a remnant of this product. In January 2006 the DuPont company committed to Remove PFOA residues remaining in the material and try to find a substitute material for the manufacturing process.
