What football player once played in the FA Cup final with a broken neck?

In the 1956 FA Cup Final, Manchester City goalkeeper Bert Trautmann was injured 15 minutes before the end of the match after a Birmingham striker kneed him in the neck. However, Trautmann decided to continue the game and helped his team to defend the winning score. After continuing to be in pain for several days, he was x-rayed, and it turned out that he played out that match with a broken neck.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

People with myopia sleep worse than people with normal vision 02.06.2021

Researchers from Flinders University (Adelaide, Australia) found that people with myopia (the medical term for nearsightedness) have worse sleep quality than people with normal vision due to delayed circadian rhythms and relatively low production of melatonin, a hormone responsible for regulating sleep. in nighttime.

The team analyzed circadian rhythms - 24-hour cycles that are part of the body's internal clock - and melatonin production in university students in their 20s, some of whom had myopia and others with normal vision. An analysis of the results showed that participants with myopia had significantly slowed circadian rhythms and low levels of melatonin in saliva and urine compared to participants with normal vision. At the same time, the question of what is the effect and what is the cause remains open. It is possible that it is the disruption of circadian sleep rhythms that causes a decrease in melatonin levels, and this, in turn, can trigger the mechanism of progressive myopia.

Circadian rhythm and sleep disturbances due to the advent of artificial light and the use of light-emitting electronic devices for reading and entertainment have become a recognized health problem in many parts of the world. However, their effects on eye health are still poorly understood.

The team now plans to follow up by further evaluating circadian timing and the consequences of disruption in young children, the main target group for myopia prevention. Such research will provide new insights into the biological and environmental factors that underlie myopia and help in its early diagnosis and treatment in children.
