American researchers find that may delay brain's wearing out to surf the Internet

American researchers find, the brain enliven the area to increase after the elderly use Internet appropriately, surf the Internet or delay a good recipe with aging brain.
Experiment of surfing the Internet
University of California, Los Angeles has filled in Mayor's nerve science and human behavior professor of research institute Garis and Moll and colleague and carried on an experiment of surfing the Internet. They choose old person between the 55th years old to 78 years old of 24 ages, the people of half of them contact Internet every day, remaining half hardly surf the Net .
Researchers carry on magnetic resonance imaging (M R I) to these old men first Scanning, confirm the degree of being active of different areas of brain by observing the situation of blood flow of their brain.
Researchers require subsequently, during two following weeks, these old men must have 7 days every day to surf the web for an hour. Later, scanned the brain M R me to them again.
Impel the brain activeness
Researcher nerve learn, announce the research results at the annual meeting scientifically in Chicago 19.
American healthy life news net quotes the words of Small on the same day " Those have brains of person who surfs the Net experience to enliven the circumscription much wider " ,And after some time, the old man who has just contacted Internet has caught up with those " L The veteran " .
Researchers find, those networks " L The new hand " R First M R I scans midbrains department and presents the active area and mainly controls the language, reads, the memory and vision; Scan the discovery for the second time, enliven the area to expand to forehead last time and volume next time, this is two main areas to responsible for memory dealing with and decision.
Small says : " We find, only after practising in 7 days, the brain enlivens the circumscription to widen notably, expand to the area of decision, that needs to make much decision because when you search for on the net. "
Researchers think, the network searches for and stimulates the mutual connection between brain cell and them, enable the brain cell more actively. One of the researchers Tina Moody says : " It may be a plain mode which temper the brain that the network searches for, can improve cognitive levels of the elderly. "
Delay brain's wearing out
This research results get some experts to approve . Paul of south University of Florida holy Burger says, this research reveals ocularly, it is helpful to the elderly to surf the Net, probe into, obtain new information and study.
The New York Einstein medical college neurological professor Richard and Lipton says, researchers found many years ago, compared with those persons not engaged in the cognitive activity, the brain machine of the person who engaged ins cognitive activity can be better, the insight is stronger.
He says, ne and dull-witted that bring, the cognitive activity of doing the cross-word puzzle, making the writing joyful, playing chess etc. can resist the aged cognitive ability decline and dull-witted that bring,s; And this research proves, in a relatively shorter period, it enlivens the area and changes when the brain is engaged in the cognitive activity " It influences the first step in the brain function how this at least insights the cognitive activity " .
But not all network activities can be produced and delayed the aging positive role of brain.
" L Can through using Internet to temper the brain, but depend on how to use, " R Small says, " L If you just participate in the online gambling or shopping, that may be unable to play a positive role. "
