Eye Examinations May Be Able To Detect Whether Your Doctor Is Too Tired To Work
73810 Doctors get a lot out of their profession: They save a life, help manage patients’ physical and mental needs, and make discoveries on how to cure or treat various illnesses. But these benefits also have drawbacks, with doctors enduring day-long shifts and high amounts of pressure to get the job done right, making it easy for medical errors and slip-ups to take place.
One of the factors behind many of these errors is fatigue, which is reported to be a common cause of many medical accidents. The cost of these mistakes is estimated around $31.1 billion in the United States. Now, an international team at the University of Grenada in Spain has created a test, which it claims accurately and objectively can measure the levels of fatigue that a doctor feels simply by examining the movement of his or her eyes.
The team, which published its results in the journal Annals of Surgery, tested doctors in the Traumatology Service at St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center, Phoenix before and after their 24-hour shifts in which each one went with no sleep. The test examined saccadic eye movement, also known as fast eye motion, and required each doctor to perform simulated laparoscopic tests, a common surgical technique, according to a press release.
The results found that while levels of fatigue increased with slower saccadic eye motion, no noticeable decrease was found in the ability to perform the simulated surgical procedure, an assessment which supports the belief that there are other errors besides fatigue that impact a medical professional’s ability to work.
«It is also true that those other professional competence resources can do little when there is an excess of working hours, and consequently those results are fundamental to contribute to the regulation of shifts and schedules, based on objective data on fatigue and performance,» Leandro Luigi Di Stasi, a Fulbright researcher at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, and Director Andrés Catena from the Centre for Research on Mind, Brain and Behavior at the University of Granada both suggested.
The test, though, does not eliminate the fact that medical mishaps do occur frequently and can create steep financial woes for doctors and hospitals, landing them in court over medical lawsuits along with stigmas that may hurt their reputation among potential patients and colleagues. Fatigue has been identified as the most significant influencer behind accidents in the workplace among doctors, and the test also calls in to question how long doctors can work before putting the safety of their patients at risk. Residents in America, for example, work up to 80 hours a week compared to French and Spanish residents who work 40. Long work hours and overtime has become a common trend among residents, according to the press release.
«The study of fatigue as a factor that contributes to the prevention of errors in the health system has become one of the main topics in risk management within this context,» Di Stasi and Catena said.
The research and outcomes in the study can also be used to assess other professions that experience long work hours, especially those that are highly tech savvy and complicated.

Seed Dormancy Existed 360 Million Years Ago
73677 Scientists have found that seed dormancy, a property that prevents germination when conditions are not right, was present in the first seeds 360 million years ago.
Seed dormancy is a phenomenon that has intrigued naturalists for decades, since it conditions the dynamics of natural vegetation and agricultural cycles. There are several types of dormancy, and some of them are modulated by environmental conditions in more subtle ways than others.
In an article published in the New Phytologist journal, the scientists studied the evolution of dormancy in seeds using more than 14.000 species.
The analyses conducted by this team of researchers have established that dormancy is as old as seeds themselves. In other words, the oldest among all seeds already had dormancy.

«Of all possible types of dormancy, the oldest one already featured very sophisticated adjustments to environmental conditions,» according to project coordinator Rafael Rubio de Casas, a researcher from the Environment Department at the University of Granada.
Producing new species
The results of this project indicate that plants without dormancy tend to be less capable of diversification, i.e. to produce new species.
«This can be due to the fact that dormancy facilitates that germination only takes place at the optimal moment, in spite of changes in the environment, due either to weather phenomena, or whether due to the fact that the seeds reach a new location after dispersal. This adjustment of the plant cycle to the new environment can reduce the probability of a particular species to become extinct,» Rubio de Casas pointed out.
Dormancy does not simply involve that seeds do not germinate when it is too hot or too cold, since under those conditions it is the environment itself which precludes germination.
«What dormancy does is make sure that the seeds do not germinate even when conditions are favorable, which precludes germination after a summer storm, or during a few warm days in winter,» the researcher added.
However, not all plants have dormant seeds. Actually, many species of plants simply germinate at the moment when their seeds are exposed to favorable conditions. Besides, it appears that plants can acquire and lose the dormancy of their seeds in a relatively fast way as a result of natural selection.
«For instance, in the case of cultivated plants, dormancy is one of the first features that appear to have been lost over the domestication process, and for this reason the date for sowing is such an important parameter in farming,» according to Rubio de Casas.
