35. ASTHENIC AND PICNIC TYPE

To date, a large amount of information has been accumulated on the frequency morbidity of people with different morphological, functional and psychological the constitution.

Thus, people of asthenic build have a tendency to respiratory diseases. systems - asthma, tuberculosis, acute respiratory diseases. Usually this explained by a “low reserve of physical strength,” but most likely this is due simply with less thermal insulation of the body due to the lack of a fatty component. In addition, asthenics are more susceptible to digestive system disorders - gastritis, stomach and duodenal ulcers. This, in turn, due to the greater nervousness of asthenics, a greater risk of neuroses and, according to E. Kretschmer, a tendency to schizophrenia. Characteristic for asthenics hypotension and vegetative dystonia.

The picnic type, being in many ways the opposite of the asthenic one, has its own risks of diseases. First of all, these are diseases associated with increased pressure, hypertension, as well as the risk of coronary artery disease, strokes, and myocardial infarction. Associated diseases are diabetes mellitus and atherosclerosis. Picnics more often others suffer from gout, inflammatory skin diseases and allergies diseases. They may have a greater risk of cancer.

The association of muscular type with pathologies has been much less studied. It is possible that muscular people are more susceptible to stress and related them diseases.

A significant conclusion from constitutional studies is that talking about “bad” or “good” variants of it are incorrect. In practice there is practically the global scale of variability is not applicable. Positive or negative qualities (risks) of certain constitutional types appear only in certain environmental conditions. So, the likelihood of getting pneumonia in there are much more athletic people in Russia than asthenic people in New Guinea. And an asthenic person, working in a flower shop or archive, is much more likely to will get an allergy than a picnic working as a school teacher. Will be asthenic it feels much better at the furnace of a steel mill or in a greenhouse, than a picnic or an athlete; a picnic will feel better than an asthenic and an athlete - in some office, in a sedentary job, in a building with an elevator. Athlete will show better results in sports or working as a loader.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Wireless mouse building kit from TI and Cypress 21.03.2007

Texas Instruments and Cypress Semiconductor have unveiled an initial design for a wireless mouse with a dual-channel 27 MHz receiver and reduced power consumption.

Using easy-to-use, highly integrated, low-power ICs, this kit will allow designers to quickly develop and bring to market a wireless mouse and receiver combination. This reduces the number of elements, system power consumption and cost.

TI's new TRF7900 dual-channel receiver integrates more than 20 discrete elements in a small footprint, reducing cost and simplifying receiver design, while giving designers the ability to select different frequencies than previous single-channel receivers could.

The receiver system, designed to receive information transmitted by the mouse, decode it, transmit mouse movements and button presses to a personal computer via USB, includes a two-channel TRF7900 receiver from TI and a CY7C63743 microcontroller with enCoRe (enhanced Component Reduction) technology from the company Cypress.

The mouse design optimizes power consumption and maximizes battery life by utilizing Agilent Technologies' ADNS3040 optical mouse sensor and ultra-low power MS P43OF1222 microcontroller.
