Scientist created an algorithm for the perfect amount of coffeeScientist created an algorithm for the perfect amount of coffeeHow much coffee should you have in one day to stay energized without getting the jitters? Discovering this answer can be a process of trial and error for our bodies. For some of us, one cup is enough to energize us, while for others, one cup does not even register as a caffeinated drink.And now, the U.S. Army has an answer. Senior research scientist Jaques Reifman, who works on biotechnology software for the U.S. Army, has discovered the perfect amount of coffee an individual should drink to stay alert based on an algorithm. His research was recently published in theJournal of Sleep Research.The U.S. Army has found the best caffeine dose to maximize alertnessWhen you are sleep deprived, caffeine can provide a much-needed jolt of energy. Reifman and his collaborators wanted to find out how much caffeine we could safely consume to maximize our performance when w e are tired. To find the perfect amount of coffee, the researchers tailored caffeine dosages based on the algorithm which took factors, such as the participants sleeping schedule, into account. The result was a highly effective performance enhancer. Through the algorithm, participants could improve their alertness by up to 64%.ur algorithm is the first quantitative tool that provides automated, customized guidance for safe and effective caffeine dosing to maximize alertness at the most needed times during any sleep-loss condition, Reifman told Science Daily.Reifman said that the software is being tested on soldiers in training. Unfortunately, the caffeine-dosage algorithm is not yet publicly available for us civilians to try out. Until then, we will have to play chemist ourselves.

Fact or Fiction Nursing Jobs According to Hollywood

Fact or Fiction Nursing Jobs According to HollywoodFact or Fiction Nursing Jobs According to HollywoodIf you hearken back to that inevitable conversation 10-year old you once had with your parent, teacher, or other role model figure, you can likely recall the first time you identified what you wanted to be when you grew up. Chances are little wide-eyed you had a host of fictional figures in mind when you rattled off job titles such as Astronaut, Police Officer, or perhaps President of the world. This future writers career of choice leaned more towards maniacal supervillain who steals Supermans ice castle, but thats a story for another article (and probably some therapy sessions).As an easily influenced youngster, your future career choices were most likely influenced by pop culture or television portrayals of these iconic jobs. I mean, lets face it, how many of us knew a real-life astronaut, or bald headed anti-hero for that matter, in our mundane daily lives. It more than makes sens e, then, that if you chose nursing as a career path you were probably swayed by some of your favorite television shows and movies devoted to the field.We hate to burst your idealistic bubble, but chances are Hollywood didnt quite get the roles of the nursing profession right in their newest summer blockbuster. Ready to be educated? Read on as we delve into the fact and fiction of nursing jobs, according to Hollywood.Nurse Knows BestOne of the most common nurse archetypes in some of our favorite modern television shows involves the young, or maybe the high-in-the-instep doctor who is too busy to pay attention to their own patients. You know the drill. An experienced, hard-edged Nurse Jackie will storm into the doctors arbeitszimmer demanding that they test their patient for the newest version of Lymes disease. Or maybe Carol from the long-running ER bursts into the doctors office and demands equal treatment and pay because its really the nurses that make this place and not you.Sadly, theres far more fiction than fact to that scenario. In a well-run hospital, nurses work hand in hand with their medical degree enhanced doctor counterparts. Sure, nurses administer medicine and tend to patients daily needs, but its often at the strict orders of the doctor in charge.Doctors rely on great working relationships with their nurse and nurse practitioner counterparts to help facilitate medical treatment. In short, nurses are a doctors eyes and ears on the ground and great ones are revered and respected, regardless of the difference in titles. In short, if you were looking to nursing as a way to experience daily hierarchical drama, chances are real life is going to leave you sorely disappointed.Male NursesOne of the ways that Hollywood manages to be slightly more true to life is in the breakdown of nursing across the sexes. As of 2018, less than 10% of nurses were male. For those that neglected Ms. Coopers 4th-grade math class in lieu of superhero comic books (ahem), that means that 90% of the profession is likely to be lacking a Y chromosome. Remember Yosh from the above-mentioned ER? He was often depicted as the sole male nurse, gossiping amongst his female cohorts.While there are numerous theories surrounding the reasons for this differential, the truth of the matter is that neither males nor females are any better suited for the profession based on physical or mental traits. Unlike the Hollywood portrayal of Greg Focker in Meet the Parents, qualified nurses of all sexes are respected and highly sought after. Nursing is a profession that is currently in high demand and anyone looking for a steady dose of career stability and opportunity for growth and advancement should feel free to pursue the necessary education needed to launch their career.Romantic Liaisons with DoctorsAh, nursing life. If youve ever felt just a tad bit annoyed with the way pop-culture portrays your day in, day out job responsibilities, your frustration likely stems from the de piction of the romantic interludes that seem to permeate film and television. Whether its Nurse Jackie getting it on with the pharmacist or the feels inducing marriage between Turk and Carla on Scrubs, Hollywood loves to overuse the classic trope of co-worker or supervisor/apprentice romance in the workplace.If youre looking for an in real life explanation of why this is far from the case in the nursing profession, let us break it down for you. First off, hospitals arent exactly the most ideal settings for building romance. Nursing can be a demanding profession filled with plenty of physically induced exhaustion and sweating (BO anyone). And the last time we checked, mucous, blood, urine and other frequently-encountered bodily fluids arent exactly the sexiest substances to induce that loving feeling.The reality of the nursing world is that you are more likely than not to go home at the end of the day feeling tired, emotionally and mentally worn down, and needing a hot bath and take out more than a quick fling with that young, hot doctor. Speaking of McDreamy, the demanding nature of most doctors careers is more likely to breed a middle-aged paunch than a stellar six-pack of antiblockiersystem hiding under those oh-so-not-sexy stain resistant, cotton scrubs. In short, Hollywood fiction doesnt quite match up to the reality of this rewarding career field.The Nursing Bottom LineSure, our depictions of the stark realities of Hollywood versus real life may seem a bitoffputting. In short, a nursing career is typically pursued due to a desire to help usher patients into better health and the need for a steady but emotionally fulfilling paycheck.Have we helped dispell rumors regarding your desired or current profession?
