Exercise helps in the treatment of chronic fatigue

Exercise and behavioral therapies are most effective treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome, according to research published in the journal PLoS ONE .

In the British study participated 640 patients and found that these two therapeutic regimens were effective and efficient.

Chronic fatigue syndrome of unknown etiology. In symptoms include severe fatigue, poor concentration and memory as well as muscular aches and arthralgia, and sleep disorder.

Research published earlier this year had shown that cognitive behavioral therapy (ie change of mind of patients) and graded exercise (ie gradual increase in exercise time) were the most effective treatments.

However, research has caused the anger of patients disagreed with the results, arguing that learning to live with restrictions feel better and safer.

Using other data from the same group of patients, the researchers compared how the improvements to the fatigue and activity, the costs were the treatments for the National Health Service of Great Britain.

They concluded that only cognitive behavioral therapy and graded exercise are cost effective.When the researchers looked at the broader cost to society, such as job loss or the cost of care, both treatments were effective.

Bilingual babies distinguish grammatical differences!

From the age of seven months can distinguish, bilingual children, grammatical differences between the two parent languages, according to Canadian research published in Nature.

Specifically, research shows that children who grow up in a bilingual environment use the tone and length of words to identify the differences between the two languages.

"From the age of seven months, infants are sensitive to the differences between the two languages ​​and use these differences as a point of reference to distinguish the languages," explains Dr. Janet Gouerker psychologist at the University of British Columbia, Canada.

Previous research conducted by Dr. Gouerker in collaboration with linguist Zyntit Zerven had shown that infants and very young children use the repetition frequency of a word to determine if it is significant or not.

"In essence, children learn a language by measuring" he says the French linguist.

"But the children are bilingual need something more than that and use other strategies," adds Dr. Goueker.

"If you speak two languages ​​at home, do not worry, your child has the charisma to stand out and do it in a great way," states the Canadian researcher.

According to the study, unfortunately often patients do not think to associate these symptoms with the neurodegenerative disease so they do not report to their physician promptly, thereby delaying the initiation of therapy for Parkinson's disease.
