Tahukah Kamu Dimana Pusat Pengatur Humor di Otak?

Para peneliti meyakini bahwa mereka sudah mengetahui lokasi pengatur rasa humor di otak manusia. Pada presentasi di 86th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) mereka mengatakan bahwa bagian bawah Lobus Frontalis di otak kita mempunyai asosiasi dengan rasa humor kita. Hal ini mungkin juga menjawab mengapa pada pasien yang terserang stroke pada daerah tersebut sering kali kehilangan rasa humornya. Kasihan juga ya....
Namun perlu disadari juga bahwa kerja otak kita sangatlah kompleks, satu bagian juga sangat dipengaruhi oleh bagian lain dari otak. Selain itu juga masih sangat banyak misteri yang belum terpecahkan mengenai otak manusia.

Penyakit Terakhir Hitler

Sebelum akhir hayatnya ternyata Hitler menderita suatu penyakit yang berusaha ditutupinya dari pengikut-pengikutnya. Penyakit ini bisa membuat ia menjadi terlihat tidak gagah dan kurang berwibawa. Ternyata Hitler menderita Parkinson sebelum kematiannya. Menurut dokter pribadi Hitler, penyakit itu mulai dideritanya pada bulan-bulan terakhir perang dunia kedua. Hitler sempat diberikan terapi dengan menggunakan preparat Belladona. Selain itu Hitler juga memperlihatkan perubahan fisik pada wajahnya, kumisnya terlihat menjadi lebih abu-abu, matanya kemerahan, padahal sebelumnya mata Biru Sang Third Reich ini selalu memancarkan kewibawaan di depan pengikut setianya

Tahukah Anda Rahasia Manusia Tertua di Dunia?

Berita yang pernah dilansir oleh Majalah Time, seorang warga China tepatnya di provinsi szechwan bernama Li Ching-yun adalah manusia terlama hidup yang pernah dicatat sepanjang sejarah.

Menurut berita yang disiarkan oleh Majalah Time, Li Ching-yun meninggal pada usia 256 tahun. Ketika ditanya apa rahasia umur panjang, maka Li Ching-yun mempunyai beberapa resep, yaitu: (nggak usah ditiru semuanya ya he..he..)

- Mengutamakan Mengkonsumsi tumbuh-tumbuhan (Sayur-Mayur)
- Meminum Sake Secukupnya ( yang ini jangan ditiru ya )
- Biarkan hati tetap tenang
- Duduk seperti kura-kura
- Sigap Berjalan Seperti Punai, dan
- Tidur seperti anjing

Li Ching-yun selama masa hidup memiliki 23 orang istri, dengan jumlah anak 60 orang. Ching-yun meninggal setelah memiliki keturunan pada generasi ke-12.

FEVER

FEVER

Fever is an elevation of body temperature that exceeds the normal daily variation and occurs in conjunction with an increase in the hypothalamic set pointfor example, from 37C to 39C. This shift of the set point from "normothermic" to febrile levels very much resembles the resetting of the home thermostat to a higher level in order to raise the ambient temperature in a room. Once the hypothalamic set point is raised, neurons in the vasomotor center are activated and vasoconstriction commences. The individual first notices vasoconstriction in the hands and feet. Shunting of blood away from the periphery to the internal organs essentially decreases heat loss from the skin, and the person feels cold. For most fevers, body temperature increases by 1 to 2C. Shivering, which increases heat production from the muscles, may begin at this time; however, shivering is not required if heat conservation mechanisms raise blood temperature sufficiently. Heat production from the liver also increases. In humans, behavioral instincts (e.g., putting on more clothing or bedding) lead to a reduction of exposed surfaces, which helps raise body temperature.

The processes of heat conservation (vasoconstriction) and heat production (shivering and increased metabolic activity) continue until the temperature of the blood bathing the hypothalamic neurons matches the new thermostat setting. Once that point is reached, the hypothalamus maintains the temperature at the febrile level by the same mechanisms of heat balance that are operative in the afebrile state. When the hypothalamic set point is again reset downward (due to either a reduction in the concentration of pyrogens or the use of antipyretics), the processes of heat loss through vasodilation and sweating are initiated. Behavioral changes triggered at this time include the removal of insulating clothing or bedding. Loss of heat by sweating and vasodilation continues until the blood temperature at the hypothalamic level matches the lower setting.

A fever of 41.5C (106.7F) is called hyperpyrexia. This extraordinarily high fever can develop in patients with severe infections but most commonly occurs in patients with central nervous system hemorrhages. In the preantibiotic era, fever due to a variety of infectious diseases rarely exceeded 106F, and there has been speculation that this natural "thermal ceiling" is mediated by neuropeptides functioning as central antipyretics.

In some rare cases, the hypothalamic set point is elevated as a result of local trauma, hemorrhage, tumor, or intrinsic hypothalamic malfunction. The term hypothalamic fever is sometimes used to describe elevated temperature caused by abnormal hypothalamic function. However, most patients with hypothalamic damage have subnormal, not supranormal, body temperatures. These patients do not respond properly to mild environmental temperature changes. For example, when exposed to only mildly cold conditions, their core temperature falls quickly rather than over the normal period of a few hours. In the very few patients in whom elevated core temperature is suspected to be due to hypothalamic damage, diagnosis depends on the demonstration of other abnormalities in hypothalamic function, such as the production of hypothalamic releasing factors, abnormal response to cold, and absence of circadian temperature and hormonal rhythms.
