what does /sci/ think of low dose Naltrexone?
>LDN is a promising treatment approach for chronic pain conditions thought to involve inflammatory processes
>Naltrexone could alleviate depression symptoms in patients who relapsed while taking antidepressants
>"Low Dose Naltrexone changed my life for the better. If I had not added that to my regimen, I would still be suffering from nerve pain and uncontrollable allergy symptoms, in addition to the problems I have from the Hashimoto’s [Disease].”
>While only 38% of those that tried Low Dose Naltrexone reported feeling better, the ones that saw benefit had some spectacular results. 48% were able to reduce thyroid antibodies, 61% saw an improvement in mood, 66% were able to have more energy, and 40% saw a reduction in pain.
>"LDN could change the lives of millions of patients"
>70% of Norwegian general practitioners (family doctors) have now prescribed LDN "the proportion of LDN users went from an insignificant number to 0.3% of the population"

hmm in terms of inflammation i think a rheumatoid doctor has to work with it. inflammation such as arthritis? in terms of arthritis apparently those with larger leg muscles can recover much easier than other who have frail legs (as in arthritis in the knee). at the same time people abuse the shit out of pain killers. pain is very relative too. someone could have some pain and say its an 8/10 on the pain scale. little do they know an 8/10 is amputation type pain...
Could this drug fall into such overuse?
>>9097170
Ketamine is much more effective for alleviating depression symptoms
so recently i have been taking up some maths in my spare time over the holidays to give me an advantage before going back for my course. I have been studying, or mores accurately just stared studying calculus. Im a bit confused on how to get an answer for:
Were are given a value for R, first = 5 then =4
I understand that (δ R) squared = 1 how i am confused what δ (R squared) would equal.
What's R?
What's R squared?
What's δ?
What is the ph of the world? If all the acid and all the bases in the world were mixed together, would they neutralize to 7?
>>9097040
-1/12
>>9097040
ph is not a conserved property so there is no reason to think they will balance out, on Earth or in the wider cosmos.
>>9097068
So what's the pH of the universe? There's only so many protons to go around, right?

How fucked am I?
Most of the stuff you're going to learn doesn't rely too heavily on the 1st semester. Don't sweat it.
Did you throw out all your notes? If you can find them, I've always noticed that a day of review can make most of the gears click for me.
>>9097006
just Google the shit and your memory will come back to you.
>Trying to solve some math problem
>Proof ends up requiring the problem to be true to work
Anyone else hate when this happens?
well why don't you stop being a faggot and prove the answer to pic related
>>9096946
Yeah i hate it when it happens when doing induction proofs, feels like circular logic
>>9097060
What's there to prove? Plus stop forcing this easy problem meme.
How exactly do a person's muscles allow them to do something like throw a punch when all they can do is contract?
I have a rough guess that muscles in the pec and shoulder lift the arm while a muscle on the back of the forearm tugs it back to extend it, but I don't know enough about biology to know if I'm retarded
>>9096883
if you get how you biceps and triceps work to flex and extend the arm, the same principle more or less applies.
>>9096890
so am I right then?
If the stars are twinkling with much faster and brighter does that mean my location on the earth is at the most forward point? For example on this ball, the point on the ball that would touch and follow the blue line.
No, it means the atmosphere is thinner or your eyes are bigger.
>>9096864
Makes sense but why the eyes part? In b4 basic anatomy.
>Brainstorming research topics in remote sensing and geology
>Come up with a cool idea
>Look into it on google scholar
>Topic has been explored extensively, there are tons of interesting and relevant titles
>All of them are from open access journals, or scientific journals from Pakistan, India, etc.
>Have an overwhelming gut-feeling that the topic is unimportant and the results are untrustworthy because it has not been explored by American researchers.
Is there something wrong with me?
>Is there something wrong with me?
yes it's called racism
>trusting info more because it came from your senpai/tribe
LOL
Always remember the (chan) anonymity motto, judge everything on it's own quality, on how much each bit appeals to your own intuitive senses.
>>9096723
I could but it but instead I'm just going to call you a nigger.
Nigger.
Fuck you.
>>9096741
Well, I tend to trust researches done by English speaking researchers instead of the ones done by the ones that speak my native language. But that is more related with the fact that it means they are probably from first world countries and might have taken it more seriously also that they could access a larger amount of information on the subject they researching.

Vitamin B3 supplements can prevent miscarriages, birth defects: study
Thoughts? Great, more people that will survive that shouldn't have! What can possibly go wrong.
>>9096703
Well, even though what you said is true, if I ever have children I'm going to try to abuse shit like that. If it depends on me, my children are at least going to start off well.
T. didn't get much breast milk, went unconscious twice from beating his head again just a rock twice before becoming seven where I had to do some surgeries and had many 42c fevers before becoming 10
>>9096703
You think it's a bad thing that we can prevent these things? How retarded are you?
>>9096720
Genetic weakness shouldn't be praised like it has been for so long. Unless you want to eventually go full manipulation mode with genetics it's detrimental to the whole of our species. Also th selfishness of men and women waiting until their late 30/ and early 40s and then being shocked they have trouble or a retarded baby is hilarious. Bad eggs are bad eggs. Bad sperm is bad sperm.
What are the best skills to learn during your PhD to get into pharma/biotech industry?

If a clocks second hand is stuck at 47 seconds and the minute hand is move by the rate of the second hang and the hour hand is moving according to the minute hand, when would the real world clock match with the clock next. Real world time: 6:30:25(pm); Clock: 9:00:47(assume always is am)
looks like a grade school homework problem
Has anyone ever considered using the energy density and weight of heavy materials like Uranium in engines of controlled fusion. It seems like with the kinds of energy states in fissile reactions you ought to be able to get some fusion happening.
We do it with bombs at the very least.
>>9096634
How do you expect us to contain a thermonuclear explosion.
They already do that, its called ICF
>>9096634
Actually it's the opposite. Fusion reactors theoretically allow you to use fissile materials more efficiently.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fusion%E2%80%93fission_hybrid
A big issue with nuclear reactors is the huge amount of energy that goes into the fuel as well as the problem of nuclear waste. Spent nuclear fuel can be used in hybrid reactors until completely depleted, so it would simultaneously increase the return on refining isotopes and be a nuclear waste disposal method.
How far are we from creating self-sustainable energy in space? I'm talking things that would help us carry missions farther than the budget and send ships and probes into space farther than the on-board fuel allows them to? Can a ship/probe gather and harvest materials from asteroids to convert to burnable fuel? We've got a lot of metals we could burn to conduct energy. yes? Logically, once the momentum starts, the only energy we would need is to continue broadcasting data as well as turning, correct?
>>9096622
we'll be able to do all of that the second we can build probes and scientific instruments in space itself
once we get that, weight will no longer be an issue, and we can make them into full blown science ships with every instrument imaginable for what ever mission is desired
considering there's no less than five different companies working on extracting and refining space resources right now, as well as multiple governments, 10 years tops
>>9096622
You have some basic terminology errors.
We have had "self-sustainable energy" since the first spacecraft: solar energy. Once the solar panels unfurl, every space mission has as much energy as it could ever want.
>Can a ship/probe gather and harvest materials from asteroids to convert to burnable fuel?
No. Fuels are typically volatile, so they have not remained on the tiny asteroids. Planets like Mars are a better place to make fuel.
>We've got a lot of metals we could burn.
False. You don't burn metals.
Basically, you are conflating "energy", "fuel", and "propellant". Energy is space is free (solar power), but propellant (reaction mass) is scarce. Fuel is basically propellant which contains chemical energy.
>>9097577
If we sent a shuttle/probe beyond our solar system, would it still be able to get enough solar energy to continue, or at least continue broadcast? I know that's a long shot, and signals would take ages to transmit back to us, but it's like asking is the ship is dead or just in a coma and going to wake eventually?
