Implant of Silicon - Everything that to make before this cirugy

The silicon prosthesis, is a supplementation carried out with a strange material to the body with a certain feature. In the case of the mammas (implants of more usual silicon nowadays), padded prosthesis is used with silicona in gel to increase the volume of the breast tissue. The cirujía for which are carried out ésto, is named breast implant of silicona prosthesis. Currently the prostheses have different forms (previously they were only spherical): of drop, flat, of high profile. This is due to that each patient has a different necessity to increase your size.

You are about an ambulatory, but not hence smaller operation. One can make to any age and in any moment of the year. You should be made in a quirófano, with professional rigorous control and pre-surgical analysis. You are carried out with a general sedation more the crazy anaesthesia, and in some cases with general anesthesia. The allocation of the prosthesis is carried out through an incision in the mamma, existing three incicines classes: The submammary one that are carried out in the wrinkle below the mamma (you are that most used one); the periareolar, in the inferior semi circle of the mammary areola; and the axillary, only access channel that don't leave visible cicatríz, but and the one that bigger difficulty offers to assure the correct position of the implant.

As for the retrieval, the patient leaves to the house with a wrapped top. Not it should be hit neither to be given bathrooms deinmersión, and you should avoid the excessive movement. To the third day the first cure is made; then, he/she can already take a shower and to recapture your habitual tasks. The operation is not invalidating for the pain, for what to the fourth day lapersona can return to the work. The total retrieval is of around the sixty days. Then, handicaps don't exist to make sport, for example.

The surgical risks of this intervention, are the same ones that any other operation. In some cases, you are temporary loss of the sensibility in the scaring field. They can also be anomalous (keloids) scars, but ésto you depend of how you heal the patient's skin. Then the risks characteristic of the intervention type are: asymmetry of the mammas and later encapsulamiento.

You are important to also highlight that the implant of mammary prosthesis doesn't impede the nursing. With the current quality of this class of implants, you are difficult that you have silicona leak toward the milk.

Another point in which suit to make stress, is in the fact that borders exist as for the volume of the prosthesis. If a bigger volume is included the one that the skin can contain naturally, they increase the risks that the wound opens up and exist complications. In each case, beyond the patient's will, you are instructions and on borders for the physician.

The Nanotectology Promises to Multiply for 10 the Autonomy of the Batteries

You are a great problem that the law of Moore is not germane in the land of the batteries. If the number of transistors in the microprocessors, or the memory increases in a lineal way every few months, the technologies of the batteries go to too dilatory step.

In the University of Stanford, the professor Yi Cui and your team have developed a technology that can raise the autonomy of the batteries of mobile telephones, portable, video cameras, etc. an autonomy 10 times superior to the current one. Basically it is about modifying the anode of the rechargeable batteries of io-lithium.

The increase of the capacity is possible thanks to a new anode type that don't use graphite, but silicon nano-filaments. In the traditional batteries of io-lithium, the quantity of imposition, in lithium form that can store the graphite node is limited; that that in turn limits the operational lifetime of the battery. The silicon anode has the theoretical biggest charge capacity, but they expand and they contract when being loaded and to be downloaded, what affect to the performance of the battery.

The team of Stanford has paid this problem by means of a new silicon anode in that the lithium is stored in a tangle of nano-filaments. As you happen with those of silicon, these filaments "fill out" up to four times when absorven the lithium, but contrary to the first they don't fracture.

Although in the field of sensors and ubiquitous devices of reduced size don't usually use this type of batteries, swapping size for autonomy results could be procured more than interesting in the field of the ubiquitous computation.

Solar panels that work the 24 hours

The dream of environmentalist and users that search alternatives to cheapen costs and to guarantee electricity, still during the cuts, it can be a reality. And everything thanks to the development of a group of investigators from National Idaho Laboratory, in USA.

Since you began to use for the electricity generation, the solar energy has been an alternative font whose use has gone growing in an exponential way. And here we have already seen different alternatives, as the impelled one for Google.

The problem is that the production of solar facilities is still something expensive, what end up reducing your market to a niche for some few ones. For if you were little, your strength is quite reduced, what involve that they are not too many the devices that can be fed this way: in consequence the depreciation of this type of investments is more dilatory.

But that can be to change thanks to Steven's work Novack, of National Idaho Labortory that affirm book credit desarollado a new type of solar panels. Thanks to the nanotechnology, the surface of these panels is printed with minuscule nano antennas that can capture the infrared radiation that are plentiful during the day but that, still during the night, you are present.

This would allow to obtain solar energy the 24 hours, something that will surely contribute to make much more income-producing the facilities of this type. And not alone that, but rather the grade of energy absorption achieved this way climbs until 80%, against 40% that are the habitual one with the solar fabricated panels with silicon. If that wasn't enough, the method invented by Novack will allow the production of solar panels that you/they can bend, reverting them extremely practical for your transportation and easy installation.

The difficult only aspect up to now is the one of being able to transform the energy obtained in electricity, since the nano antennas has each a very little strength and your value is given on the whole by your work. Certainly that in this aspect they are working the scientists. When they have solved it finally we will be able to have solar really actual and economic panels.

The Women with Good Rubbers with Intelligent Children

Before beginning, rubbers natural good curves surrendered by the nature, the siliconas doesn't count...

EFE Washington
The women with curves can have more intelligent children due to the high content of acid of the fatty saturated poliin that they are in the hips and that they are of supreme importance for the development
of the brain in the fetus. He/she reveals this way it a study that will publish this week the official magazine of the Evolution and Human Behaviour Society (Society for the Evolution and the Human Behavior) that has been carried out by the universities of Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania) and of California.
In accordance with an extract of the study diffused today, in different you prove cognitivas carried out women's children with curved these they offered a coefficient of superior intelligence to that of the mothers with narrow hips.
The fact that the children children of mothers with wide hips and narrow waist offered high notes in the different intelligence tests to those that were subjected it took to that William Lassek, of the University of Pittsburgh
, and Steven Gaulin, of California, concluded that the fetuses benefit of a rich supply in acids of the fatty saturated poliin.
The study that was carried out between 16.000 women and girls, points out that, in consequence, those mothers with narrow hips
they lack this acids, and therefore, their children suffer the lack of those nutrients.
The analysis reveals that this it can be the reason for the one which, according to several studies, the men prefer the women with curved.
The report carried out by Lassek and Gaulin also reveals that this theory shows why the children of young mothers offer worse results in the different intelligence tests.
He/she owes it to that those adolescent mothers don't have enough acids coming from the fatty saturated poliin.
