Fish Consumption May Reduce Risk of Brain Disorders

Consumption of tuna and other fish have been examined can reduce the number of events infark (cell death) subklinis brain and abnormalitas white substance from the brain. The researchers found that consumption of fish in the portion of the adults are associated with a decrease in the brain abnormalitas proven through examination Magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI). Consumption of fish is in this case is the processing of fish baked or boiled.

Type of fish that have an important role in containing health care is eicosapentanoic and docosahexanoid acid. The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends that eating fish at least 2 times a week. Recommendation that they give is like makarel fish, tuna, herring, and salmon with a fetus in the omega 3 content is high.

Research diketuai by Jyrki Virtanen, PhD from the University of Kuopio in Finland involving 3660 participants aged 65 years and over or are older. All participants are part of the Health Research Heart and blood vessel, and have a MRI examination as a basis. Five years later, only about 2300 patients who need MRI examination back.

After analyzing the multiple risk factors, researchers found that the risk of experiencing one or infark in some places, lower in those who consume tuna and other fish 3 times or more per week compared with those who consumed fish less than 1 time a month. They found that fish consumption is associated with a decrease in the number of events infark subklinis. And fish are also associated with a decrease in disruption in the white substance in the brain. The researchers also found that no relation was found between fried fish with abnormalitas of the brain.

This study has several strengths which are based on the recruitment polulasi, a large number of participants, and thorough examination of the other risk factors, including the basic features as MRI. However, this research also memiiliki weaknesses are there other factors that support health such as healthy living patterns. The researchers need further research on the consumption of fish or fish oil to reduce the number keterkaitannya incident iskemik.

China's Latest Unrest Related to the Internet

Even in tightly controlled China, relatively unfettered commentaries and images circulating on Web sites helped stir up tensions and rally people to join an initially peaceful protest in the Xinjiang region that spiraled into violence Sunday, leaving more than 150 people dead.

In China, as in Iran and other hotspots, the Internet, social networking and micro-blogging are playing a central role in mobilizing people power — and becoming contested ground as governments fight back.

In the Internet age, events in "places like Xinjiang or Tibet, which were always considered very remote," can suddenly become close and immediate for people around the world, said Xiao Qiang, director of the Berkeley China Internet Project at the University of California-Berkeley.

Since the outburst in the Xinjiang capital of Urumqi, the Chinese government has blocked Twitter and Facebook, scrubbed news sites, unplugged the Internet entirely in some places and slowed it and cell phone service to a crawl in others to stifle reports about the violence — and get its own message out that authorities are in control.

Key-word filters have been activated on search engines like Baidu and Google's Chinese version so that searches for "Xinjiang" or "Uighur" only turn up results that jibe with the official version of events.

That a fight in one part of China could impact a riot 10 days later thousands of miles away underscores how slippery fast-evolving communication technologies can be even for an authoritarian government with the world's most extensive Internet monitoring system.

State media reports said only two people died in the June 25 fight between Uighur and Han Chinese workers at a toy factory in southern Shaoguan city. In the days that followed, however, graphic photos spread on the Internet purportedly showing at least a half-dozen bodies of Uighurs, with Han Chinese — members of China's majority ethnic group — standing over them, arms raised in victory.

Expunged from some sites, the photos were posted and reposted, some on overseas servers beyond the reach of censors. Their impact was amplified by postings on bulletin boards and other sites.

Uighurbiz.cn, a site popular among Uighurs, carried an open letter over the weekend suggesting there would be revenge for the factory fight. "You've beaten Uighurs, killed Uighurs and perhaps never thought about the consequences," said the letter posted by someone using the Uighur alias Yadkar.

A flurry of postings on another popular site, Diyarim.com, began calling for action in Urumqi. Diyarim's founder, Dilixati, remembers one: "Gather at 5 p.m. at People's Square. Young people if you have time come to the square." The messages kept reappearing, and he called police to alert them and took the site off-line, said Dilixati, who would give only his first name for fear of reprisals.

Hours after Sunday's riot, when police were still trying to pacify Urumqi's streets, Xinjiang's leaders went on TV to denounce Uighur separatists living abroad for using Diyarim and Uighurbiz to organize the disturbance.

That the riot occurred in Urumqi may be testament to its being the most-wired place in Xinjiang, a remote region of vast deserts and towering mountains that juts into Central Asia.

Mobile phone coverage is typically stable in the city and people use handheld devices to go online, said Dru Gladney, a Uighur expert at the Pacific Basin Institute at Pomona College in California. In Urumqi, "people have these technologies literally at their fingertips," he said.

Elsewhere in Xinjiang, the best services are provided at closely monitored Internet cafes, where Uighurs may be less comfortable posting sensitive information, Gladney said.

Only a dozen years ago, when China was scarcely wired, details of the authorities' brutal quelling of a similar protest by Uighurs in the city of Yining leaked out slowly and even today remain obscure. An official death toll of nine is disputed by exiled Uighurs and rights groups who say fatalities may have been 10 times that or greater.

Unplugging Internet and cell phone service has become standard practice for dealing with civil unrest. The government did so in March over worries about renewed anti-Chinese demonstrations in Tibetan areas.

Though officials usually prefer to keep silent about such tactics, Urumqi's top Communist Party official, Li Zhi, told a news conference Tuesday that the Internet was deliberately cut off in parts of the city. He said it was done "in order to quench the riot quickly and prevent violence from spreading to other places."

Such censorship does not quiet unrest for long, but instead ends up giving rumors more credence than they deserve, said Berkeley's Xiao.
