Four non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's

 　　 The core symptom of Parkinson's disease is bradykinesia, which is a slowing and inflexibility of movement in daily activities. Shaking, also known as tremor, is a well-known symptom of Parkinson's disease, but the tremor of Parkinson's disease has its characteristics, that is, it is manifested as resting tremor, which is obvious when still, aggravated by mental stress, relieved when doing voluntary movement, and relieved when sleeping. disappear.

　　 Most of the symptoms start from one upper extremity, which is manifested as shaking like "rubbing a pill". As the disease worsens, the legs, jaw and head may shake. It should be pointed out that not all shaking is Parkinson's disease, there are some conditions such as physiological tremor, essential tremor, etc., their incidence is much higher than Parkinson's disease.

　　 Another important motor symptom of Parkinson's disease patients is muscle stiffness, which not only affects the limbs but also the facial expression muscles, so patients with Parkinson's disease will have reduced facial expressions, often called "mask face".

　　 In addition, there are many motor symptoms, such as abnormal gait, patients with Parkinson's disease often show "small steps" when walking, leaning forward, lack of arm swinging back and forth, and difficulty in stopping. As the disease progresses, patients feel that their feet are stuck to the floor and have difficulty lifting, a condition known as "frozen gait," and often falls due to instability.

　　 Frequent insomnia or early awakening, urgency to urinate, frequent urination, and frequent urination may be non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Here are four non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease to be wary of, experts say.

　　 One is "the nose is not working". More than 90% of Parkinson's disease patients have symptoms of hyposmia, and many patients have been found to have hyposmia for many years at the time of consultation.

　　 The second is "not sleeping well". It is understood that many Parkinson's disease patients have difficulty falling asleep, wake up frequently or early, excessive sleepiness during the day, and may scream, make noise, kick people, and beat people in their sleep, which seriously affects the sleep quality of patients.

　　 The third is constipation. Patients often develop symptoms of constipation 10 or even 20 years before the onset of symptoms.

　　 Fourth, anxiety and depression. Anxiety is mainly manifested as generalized anxiety and panic disorder; the incidence of depression is the highest, which can run through the entire course of Parkinson's disease.

Zeigarnik effect

　　As a freelancer, you have to fight procrastination every day. "I've made up my mind many times, but I just can't change it. Is it because I'm slow or slow?". In fact, many procrastinations are irrational. Many obstructions are imagined by myself. So distract, postpone, avoid confrontation. It's cool to procrastinate, and it's cool to procrastinate all the time, so I can't do it. Concentration is also related to physical strength. When the physical strength is exhausted, it is even more difficult to concentrate. You’ll tell yourself: I’m too tired to do this—okay, another perfect procrastination. 　　In 1927, Bruma Zeigarnik's senior research found that people are more likely to care about unfinished and interrupted work than completed work. This is the Zeigarnik effect. For example, we often don't care much about what we have got, but we will especially cherish what we have worked hard but haven't got. Therefore, the TV series will tell you...

Moroccan football team: "The most familiar stranger"

 　　When I was still in college ten years ago, I led a sightseeing group of more than 30 Moroccan students.

They have religious beliefs, are used to worship, and are inextricably linked with France. 　　When I saw the real person, I realized that the North Africans in front of me were actually a group of children playing with each other and having fun in time. They were about the same age as me at the time. I have all kinds of nicknames and nicknames. During the process of taking them to Badaling, the Summer Palace and Houhai, two classmates and I, together with more than 30 Moroccan students, realized "cultural integration" and "world unity" in the small group to some extent. 　　During the World Cup in Qatar, I was surprised to find that the little-known Morocco team, which was eliminated in the group stage of the last World Cup, after miraculou...

How Gates and Jobs compete

 　　Competition is the norm in the business world. Many people even use war as a metaphor for business competition. As master leaders, Apple founder Steve Jobs and Microsoft founder Bill Gates, how do they handle business? What about competition issues? Let's take a look at the four strategies summarized by the author in the book "Strategic Thinking". 　　The first strategy is the "puppy tactic". The term “puppy tactics” comes from Jean Tirole, the 2014 Nobel Prize winner in economics, and Zhu Fudenberg, a master of economics. It means to make yourself as harmless as possible, to keep competitors completely unaware of your intentions, and even to make the market unclear about your true intentions through camouflage and misleading. 　　Being undervalued by the market and competitors will give you an edge when entering a new field. 　　Jobs was a tough entrepreneur. However, he is also a master at employing puppy tactics. For example, Jobs adopted this strategy when he w...
