Filtering Effect for Small Droplets

Filtering effect for small droplets (aerosols) by various masks; home made of tea cloth, surgical mask (3M "Tie-On") and a FFp2 (N95) respirator mask. The numbers are scaled to the reference of 100 (Source of droplets) for illustrative purposes, calculated from the PF (Protection Factor) values in table 2. Measurement was performed with a portacount counter that registers particles in the air with sizes in the range between 0.02 and 1 micrometer at the end of a 3-hour wearing period with no physical activity. The number for the protection are medians of 7 (or 8) adult volunteers per group. Protection at the beginning of the test was similar for the Tea Cloth and Surgical Mask, but for FFP2 the protection was double. Children experienced substantially less protection.

Walking Prevents Heart Disease

According to the American Heart Association, Walking is no less effective than running when it comes to the prevention of heart-related disease or stroke. This activity helps avoid heart problems by lowering high blood pressure and cholesterol levels and improving blood circulation. #drsaisudarsan #neurosurgeron #topneurologist #neurosurgerynow #neurology #indiandoctors #MS #DNB #MRCS #MCh #DNB #MNAMS #FRCS #pulsehospitalranchi #neurologist #indiabestneurosurgeon #walkingeffects #preventsheartdisease #bloodpressure #bloodcirculation #heartstroke

Alcoholic Polyneuropathy

Alcohol abuse affects systems throughout the body, including the motor and sensory nerves. These nerves communicate with the central nervous system (CNS) and autonomic nervous system (ANS), impacting movement and other functions throughout the body such as physical sensations, heart rate, and muscle strength. Alcoholic polyneuropathy is not reversible, but it is treatable. There are several signs and symptoms that can indicate whether someone has developed alcohol-related nerve damage. Seeking professional help is the best way to determine an appropriate treatment plan for both the nerve damage and alcohol abuse. # alcoholism # alcoholaddiction # alcoholawareness # alcoholabuse # alcoholfree # alcoholicpolyneuropathy # drsaisudarsan # brain # brainsurgery # topneurologist # indiandoctors # chronicalcohololism
