A complicated summer can put the advances in recent months at risk

by

Experts tell us that we are faced with a new change in the weather tendency. After a first half of the extremely warm summer, the second half of June He gave us a respite based on a reduction in temperatures and several tormentous episodes concentrated in the north third and in the Mediterranean basin. Now this slight respite has the days counted: the heat will return strongly and the rainfall is expected below normal even for the summer. How is this affecting reservoirs? How are our reservoirs? The Last data of the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge indicate a slight decrease in the embalmed water in the Spanish swamps in the last week. The reservoirs have passed to be at 68.4% of its capacity to 67%. A fall is significant of more than one percentage point In a week it is significant even taking into account that we are in summer, more if we consider the fact that this has been a wet week in several areas of the Peninsula, such as the northern third, Catalonia or the Segura basin. The good news is that, despite this descent, the water reserve It is maintained Above the average in the last five and ten years, and also above its level now a year ago. Different trends. This does not mean that the rains have not been worth In hydrographic data: the internal basins of Catalonia and that of the Segura have been the only two that They have resisted the pull this week. The former have managed to maintain their level of filling at 77.5%; And the second has seen its swamps to increase in volume compared to the previous week, moving from an average filling of 28.7% to 28.8%. In contrast, the internal basins of the Basque Country went from being at 90.5% of its capacity at 85.4%. With regard to the big basins, they all lost water, but the decrease was more marked in the Ebro, whose swamps went from being at 77.5% of their capacity to being at 74.4%, below the Catalan basins. A complicated August. August does not seem aimed at bringing an improvement in the situation. Monthly predictions The State Meteorology Agency (AEMET) indicates that the weeks ahead will be warmer and drier than it would correspond to the first weeks of August. The anomaly in rainfall will be mild, but will affect most of the country over the next weeks. Regarding the anomaly at temperature this will be more irregular. While we can expect a thermal anomaly between three and five degrees in most of the country, next week it is possible that the East Peninsular will see temperatures even somewhat lower than normal for these dates.

For months Ukraine turned a strategic city into impregnable. Until Russia added a lethal partner to his drones

by

The Summer offensive From Russia in eastern Ukraine, launched in May, has been advancing on the battlefield On multiple frontsexploring and attacking with small and fast units as the fighting intensifies day by day. With his advance, Russia has changed The rhythm of warcapturing more and more square kilometers. However, for many months, one of the bloodiest battles has taken place in a single enclave. Prolonged defense. For months, the Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk became one of the most fierce epicenters of the war, where kyiv’s forces managed to stop a numerically superior enemy thanks to intensive use of armed drones and staggered defenses that worn thousands of Russian soldiers. This bastion, located on important reserves of coquizable coal and that worked as a key point of the supply lines to the east, has been subject to a constant siege since last year, first through frontal attacks and then through Fence attempts. Fiber as a disruptive. Although the Ukrainian resistance managed to stop these advances, Russia has gone adapting their tactics with greater deployment of drones, finally including the models than We have been talking In recent months: those Drones with optical fiber Impossible to block with electronic warfare systems, capable of achieving objectives up to 25 kilometers after the front line. Human and logistics cost. The price of this slow offensive has been devastating for Moscow: tens of thousands of casualties accumulate around Pokrovsk, with soldiers sent in Precarious conditionssome recruited in criminal colonies with just a week of training, other wounded or poorly equipped. Many were released in almost suicidal wavesadvancing on foot or motorcycles to avoid drone detection, in groups of just half a dozen, replaced again and again after each failure. Russian prisoners They reported that the greatest fear in the battlefield were not tanks or artillery, but Small Ukrainian quadricopters that bombarded from the air without rest, generating psychological terror and nightmares between the troops. kyiv, meanwhile, He suffered the pressure Of a hostile environment, with supply routes subjected to the fire of drones and artillery, which forced to cover roads with protection networks and to face increasing difficulties to supply food and food to the few civilians who remain in the city. Russian adaptation. Underlined a report Reuters that Ukrainian resistance, organized with the experience of units such as called “Da Vinci Wolves” And under the command of General Mykhaylo Drapatyi, he managed to maintain the line during more than a yearapplying counterattacks and hindering enemy logistics. However, Russian numerical superiority, key road control and the introduction of new technologies began to Tilt the balance. The calls “Kill Zone drones” They cover kilometers on each side of the front, making reinforcements and supplies on both sides. Russian advances, although limited in territory, accelerated in The spring of 2025with the greatest Ukrainian territorial losses of the year concentrated in this sector. Pokrovsk’s partial fall, although symbolically minimized by Zelenski, could release Russian military resources and open the door to greater progress in Donbás, approaching Putin to one of its fundamental objectives. Strategic implications. Background, Pokrovsk represents the paradigm of the wear war that today defines the conflict: minimum territorial advances achieved to a exorbitant human costwith drone technology as a decisive factor on the battlefield. For Ukraine, its resistance has been a crucial brake that prevented Russia from consolidating control, Especially Donetskbut the price has been the almost total destruction of the city and the loss of its logistics function. For Russia, the eventual conquest of Pokrovsk would serve to reinforce its control over the eastalthough he has succeeded by sacrificing thousands of soldiers, many of them poorly trained and equipped. If you want, the battle illustrates the transformation of modern combat, where the troops are trapped in a new war era defined by drone swarms, electronic war and mass attacks that make each meter live in a victory … with very little to celebrate.

Starlink has made 144,000 maneuvers in six months to avoid collisions

by

Starlink satellites executed 144,404 collision evasion maneuvers between December and May, according to SPACEX DATA LOCATED BEFORE THE FCC. That is equivalent to a maneuver every two minutes. Why is it important. Each evasion is an opportunity for human or technical error that could trigger a destructive chain reaction. Kessler syndrome – COLLISCES WASHING THAT WOULD MAKE A COMPLETE ORBITE – STARTS TO STOP SUMMARY FOR SCIENCE. The figures. Starlink has tripled its evasion maneuvers with respect to the previous period. To contextualize: Isro, the Indian Space Agencyhe has only made 122 maneuvers in 14 years. Between 2022 and 2023 he had whether Pico: 23. The context. The low land orbit has become a kind of highway. A saturated highway. Spacex has launched more than 6,000 satellitesand plan to deploy up to 42,000. Amazon, Oneweb and several countries prepare their own constellations. The democratization of space brings obvious benefits: global Internet, land observation, emergency communications. The problem is the hidden cost of orbital congestion. Between the lines. Spacex has asked for “uniform report standards” for the entire industry. Translation: We need clear play rules before someone causes a catastrophe that affects everyone. The threat. A single error can be translated into thousands of spatial garbage fragments traveling 28,000 km/h. In addition, each fragment becomes a projectile capable of destroying other satellites, which would create more fragments in a chain reaction. And now what. The industry is developing autonomous evasion systems with which They promise to reduce maneuvers up to 50%. But the real solution and long term goes through international regulation and coordination between operators. The space is immense, but not infinite. Maybe it’s time to learn to share it.

a lizard that digests for months

by

It seems out of a horror movie: a poisonous, slow and scums, which passes most of his life hidden under the sand of the desert. But this reptile, far from being a threat has become one of the great protagonists of modern medicine. His name: Heloderma Suspectumbetter known as Gila’s monster, and his poison has inspired medications that lately resonate a tool to lose weight. An unexpected finding. In 1980, the gastroenterologist Jean-Pierre Raufman, intrigued by the therapeutic potential of natural substances, analyzed a series of animal poisons. In the most arid areas in the southern United States and northern Mexico, the specialist in the digestive system and other associated organs was fascinated by the Gila monster. According to BBCGila’s monster spends 98% of his life in underground burrows and can survive with just six meals a year, thanks to the fat accumulated in his tail, in the style of camels. As He has collected The National Geographic, the doctor wanted to study more thoroughly after receiving a sample facilitated by the chemist John Pisano, who was looking for new peptide type molecules. Later, the endocrinologist John Eng resumed that line of research and managed to isolate two molecules of the poison: Excendin-3 and Excendin-4. These behaved similar to a human hormone called LPG-1, essential to regulate insulin production. The finding opened the doors to a new kind of drugs. The science behind LPG-1. Because of course, how a poison has become the thinning star? Gila’s monster-4 monster imitated LPG-1, but had a crucial advantage: it remained longer in the human organism, prolonging its effects on metabolism. This allowed developing medications such as Byetta (exenatida) for type 2 diabetes. As has collected the BBClater, it gave rise to the famous drugs known as Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro. They not only regulate blood sugar, but also reduce appetite and cause weight loss, acting directly on brain receptors that control the feeling of hunger. The trick was to make a small change in the molecule: they added some chains of fat that make it a protein in the blood. That allows the medicine to last longer in the body, so it is not necessary to take it so often and its effect is more constant. Now a major problem faces. And it is not shortage The drugs to lose weight. According to an Ecology and Evolution studyGila’s monster is seeing how its habitat is drastically reduced in the coming decades. Climate change, together with the fragmentation of the desert, limits its ability to adapt. By 2070, it is estimated that it could have disappeared from much of its current rank, especially in regions such as Mojave, without the possibility of recalling other more temperate areas. The poison as a research route. The use of toxic compounds in medicine is not something new. The captopril, widely prescribed to treat hypertension, is based on the poison of a Brazilian snake, the JARARACA Bothrops. Today, that same logic is being applied to the genetic scale. Hungarian researcher Zoltan Takacs works in cataloging animal toxins of different species to create a database that serves as a starting point for new pharmacological treatments. Hidden underground. The history of the Gila monster is a reminder that the best saved secrets of science are sometimes hidden under the sand. Today, its survival depends on human action. While in laboratories they are extracting wisdom from their poison, their habitat is reduced and its presence in nature becomes increasingly vulnerable. We do not know where the next advance of science will be.

Windows 11 has finally surpassed his predecessor in what cost him the most. Has needed 46 months and a deadline

by

After almost four years of struggle, Windows 11 has achieved for the first time Overcome the Windows 10 market share. July data Statcounter They show, at the time of writing the article, that the current Microsoft operating system reaches 50.88%, while its predecessor drops to 46.2%. Somewhat for the company that reaches just three months from the end of the Windows 10 security updates support, yes, the achievement has been accompanied by desperate measures. The context. Microsoft launched Windows 11 in October 2021 with the promise of being “The best Windows in history“, But its initial adoption ended up being extraordinarily slow. Just a year ago, Windows 10 maintained an overwhelming advantage with 66.04% of the market compared to 29.75% of Windows 11. The change of litmus has been so late that it has forced Microsoft to take exceptional measures. Market share of the different Windows versions globally. Image: Statcounter Millions of users will run out of support soon. With 1,400 million Windows devices worldwide, according to the company, Statcounter figures would suggest that approximately 728 million execute Windows 11 and 655 million continue with Windows 10, despising the rest of versions. This figure is problematic especially because it means that hundreds of millions of users will run out of updates Safety when Microsoft withdraw the support on October 14, 2025. Of course, users They still have alternatives. To great evils … The situation has forced Microsoft to break its tradition and offer for the first time extended security support (ESU) to domestic users, something that was previously only available for companies. In addition, he has announced that will provide this free support to those who use Windows Backup with a Microsoft account, something that for many is a privacy toll in exchange for security. The push of companies. As they warn from The Registerthe sudden growth of Windows 11 is not due to a massive adoption of consumers, but mainly to business migrations. Keiren Jessop, analyst at Cábalys, points that administrators would be executing planned updates before the closing of the support, especially with the start of new fiscal years in July and October. From the middle they ensure that hardware sales, including THE NEW PCS WITH IAThey remain limited due to the lack of applications that justify their high prices. Better late than never. Windows 11 has needed 46 months to overcome his predecessor, a record time in the history of Microsoft. The strict system requirements, which exclude computers Without TPM 2.0 and old processorsThey have stopped their adoption. Meanwhile, Microsoft has been putting pressure to its users through annoying banners In Windows 10 to make the change, recommend the purchase of a new PC that is compatible with the requirements, months before its official support. On the horn. With only three months until the end of the support, Microsoft has finally achieved that Windows 11 took the lead. The question is how many users will make the transfer to Windows 11 before the end of their support and how much the difference ends in these three months.

The US tried to the desperate strangular the Chinese chip industry. It has taken two months to back down

by

There is a key to be able to manufacture the best processors in the world: have access to software that allows you to design them. And there, at least currently, the leadership still has the United States through three companies: Siemens, Synopsys and Cadence. The Trump administration has been since May trying to pull the rope with China To use this software as a throwing weapon. And the play has not finished doing well. The context. On May 29, the Office of Industry and Security of the US Department of Commerce He gave the order: EDA software is ended up to Chinese groups. A movement that sought to stop China’s incessant advance in semiconductors, at a key moment in which the country led by Xi Jiping is achieving milestones in its lithographic, current and future processes. The answer. China, which has been looking for technological self -sufficiency for decades and reduce its dependence with the United States, saw in these new restrictions “the greatest opportunity for history growth”, according to some of the main figures after Chinese EDA software companies. Triggered action, national commitment to a product that has been refining years, and even publication in Github of some of the advances they were achieving in this matter. What happened. The restrictions imposed on the sale of software by Siemens, Cadence and Synopsys have been terminated with immediate effect, According to SCMP. The three giants of this industry can resume their commercial ties with China, so their supply chain can resume the use of these crucial tools. What will happen now. That the United States has unlocked (at least, for now) the use of EDA software is an oxygen ball for the Chinese semiconductor industry. The country is close to achieving capacity to make 5nm chipsalthough It is still choking progress in this lithographic process Before the prohibitions of the US and the Netherlands that prevent Asml extreme ultraviolet photolithography (UVE). Access to American Eda will be key, but not the key to the future of the country. Empyrean Technology, Primarius Technologies and Semitronix are the names to remember. Three Chinese giants who want to stand up to the three American giants, a task that will not be easy. The American Eda Empire. Together, Siemens, Synopsys and Cadence are around 80% of the global in this industry. They monopolize almost all of the EDA market and are one of the main strategic pillars in the semiconductor design industry. Figures that will not allow China to approach in the short term, but that will not move her away from her inevitable destiny: Lead the semiconductor industry, sooner or later.

has been charging without working seven months

by

Imagine being hired by an important company in which you are going to collect a good salary but, when it is time to incorporate and assign your tasks, nobody does. They pay you for Do nothing Throughout your day. Would you give up such a job? Although the argument of a sitcom may seem, that is exactly what happened to a Reddit user who He told his experience in a job in which I had “working” seven months without doing anything. In spite of everything, the employee was satisfied with his work: “I will not get a second job while I do this. I am a vague auction and I do not even want to do this job, nor talk about a second.” Schrödinger’s employee: he is, but he doesn’t work The user resident on the east coast of the USA, counted in his publication that he was hired in one of the world’s largest real estate companies for an administrative position with a salary that almost reached the six figures. However, a week before joining the office, the person who hired him was fired. In fact, on his first day, someone from another department had to show him what his table was. “I’ve been sitting in an office behind the office that occupied the woman who hired me, completely alone.” This unexpected situation left the new worker without a direct superior to supervise him, and Without clearly defined tasks From the first day. Faced with such an unusual situation, the employee tried to contact other managers and department leaders warning them that he has no assigned tasks. However, their requests have not obtained an answer, and continues to perform minimum tasks that it has assumed on its own. Its only official activity is to develop spreadsheets on the list of the equipment, something that does not use more than 15 minutes a week. Then, send the files to the department head and attach a hidden copy to the office coordinator, only to save appearances. An exemplary employee Despite the total absence of tasks and supervision, the employee has chosen to religiously fulfill his working hours. He explains that, to leave registration of his assistance, he goes to the office three days per week to validate his credential and meets the agreed schedule. Even so, the employee confesses that some days leave early. We assume that it will do it without leaving pending tasks. Your company applies a Hybrid Day Modelso the other two remaining days does “his work” from home. The employee says that during the seven months he has been in the company, he has always received his salary promptly, despite not having real responsibilities. “They pay me every month, although I barely have a job. No one seems to realize that I exist,” he says in his publication. According to other users, when you need one day free, send a request by an application and someone approves it without major problems. But “I have not talked to anyone in months,” he confirms. Some users tell you the possibility of searching A second job remotely with which to entertain During “your work day” and, incidentally, get an extra income without having to spend more time. However, the employee has refused full assuming that his goal is to maintain the minimum effort. He really found work of his. Although the case of this employee may seem isolated and unusual, in reality work audits discover similar cases quite often, even in Spain We have had some cases. Meta, for example, hired engineers during the pandemic to prevent their competition from signing but, like later confessed, He really had no assigned tasks and They charged for doing nothing.

The Iranian nuclear program has only delayed a few months

by

If the images do not lie, and everything indicates that They do notin the days before the American air operation against Iran’s nuclear facilities, the satellite captured and revealed unusual movements in the Fordow uranium enrichment complex, one of the three objectives of The hammer operation. Not just that. The United States has just been part of the victorious proclamation with A report which puts the result of the mission in serious. Anticipation. According to him Visual analysis Of the photographs taken by Maxar Technologies between June 19 and 20, a series of cargo trucks, bulldozers and heavy machinery were positioned in accesses to the main tunnel of the underground complex. The registered activity suggests deliberate work in the entrances with land. In other words, snapshots indicate that they will go He sealted clearly The accesses to its underground nuclear installation of Fordow days before US bombings, suggesting that I was looking to protect her of possible Israeli terrestrial incursions. Implications Although the United States claims to have destroyed key capabilities, Analysts held until yesterday that the previous seal, together with the possibility that nuclear material has been dispersed, raised doubts about the real impact of the attack. In addition, the Blocked inputs They hinder the evaluation of damage, and there are indications of other non -inspected nuclear facilities, which feed the uncertainty about the future of the Iranian atomic program. The report. Plus: In the last hours triumphalism in the White House has given way to silence. The attack labeled as a devastating military operation that “volatilized” Tehran’s nuclear capacity has encountered A report of the defense intelligence agency (day) that directly contradicts that narrative, estimating that the bombings have barely delayed the Iranian nuclear program by less than six months. This preliminary evaluation, released by means Like CNN or the New York Timeshas triggered a hard cross between intelligence agencies, the Pentagon, the presidency of the United States and both national and international political leaders, opening a new front of dispute over the veracity, utility and legitimacy of the aerial offensive. Foreground of a June 20 image where additional vehicles and coatings are appreciated Narrative in front of evaluation. According to the daymultiple bombardment with B-2 and missile He failed to destroy Iranian nuclear infrastructure definitively. This conclusion reinforces the Previous statement of American intelligence agencies, which argued that Iran were not at that time building a nuclear bomb. However, Trump has rejected both valuations and the new leaks, qualifying them of “fake news” disseminated by the media and reaffirming that the whites were “completely destroyed.” The President published in Truth Social that the operation was “one of the most successful in military history” and that any dissonant voice was nothing more than a maneuver to “undermine” its leadership. Rows closure. The Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, back The presidential position. Alleged that fourteen 13,000 kg pumps Employees impacted with surgical precision on all objectives and that the effects were “buried under mountains of debris.” He also described as malicious The leaks of the Dia Report and defended that the attack “annihilated Iran’s ability to create nuclear weapons.” In line, the White House spokeswoman, Karoline Leavitt, He dismissed validity From the filtered report, he attacked his alleged author as “a low -level loser within the intelligence community” and emphasized that the bombing results were “a total obliteration.” Despite these statements, the government postponed without explanation Detailed the informative session classified in Congress that had to analyze the results of the attack, which further ignited criticism. International reactions. From Tehran, Iranian President Masoud fishshkian minimized the impact Of the bombings, ensuring that “the aggressor enemy failed in his goal of destroying facilities, reducing nuclear knowledge or causing social instability.” Also He affirmed thatdespite the human losses suffered during the twelve days of war with Israel, the damage caused to the counterpart was “beyond the imaginable.” This statement challenges frontally Trump’s statements and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who backed the US version without reservations. Netanyahu said that joint bombing campaigns had taken the Iranian nuclear program “to ruin” and warned that they would replicate the offensive if Tehran tries to rebuild it. Perception vs real scope. The Financial Times counted That, in strategic terms, the operation does not seem to have reached the structural deterrent effect proclaimed by the Trump administration. The intelligence report suggests that damaged infrastructure may be repaired or replacedand that the offensive has only produced a limited tactical interruption over time. In addition, the American political reaction reflects deep divisions among those who see in the attack a act of firmness in front of Tehran and those who fear that more than one propaganda maneuver has been treated than of military action with lasting effects. Plus: The fact that Iran’s scientific and technical complexes have not been permanently neutralized by doubt the Effectiveness of bombing As a deterrent mechanism and leaves the door open to a new phase of the nuclear conflict. Limited impact. So things, so much Satellite images like him Intelligence report They suppose a jug of cold water for the rhetoric of the operation, conceived as a demonstration of strength and resolution, but that over the days has become a marked episode by internal tensionsstrategic and narrative doubts. While the bombing evidenced the American capacity To hit deeply protected facilities, it doesn’t seem like there eradicated the threat Potential represented by the Iranian nuclear program. The controversy generated not only weakens the communicative position of the Trump administration, but also reveals the growing distance between political rhetoric and Technical valuations In international security issues. If you want also, the story of the Hammer operation It is a faithful reflection of a conflict that, far from having resolved, could now enter an even more complex and volatile phase.

An AI startup with six months of life and six employees has sold for 80 million dollars. Vibe-Coding, of course

by

Maor Shlomo is 31 years old, is Israeli and six months ago created a small platform of Vibe Coding. He did it almost like a secondary project, but the growth of the project has been vertiginous. So much that after that time the company has just sold for 80 million dollars. We are facing a sign of the times that come to us. AI as a unicorn promoter. There are more “unicorns” than ever. None has become a true giant, but reaching an assessment of 1,000 million dollars has become something relatively normal. Achieving something like that seems very complicated, but there is already talk of how the irruption of AI will make many entrepreneurs convert their startups into unicorns. Uniquersonal unicorns. The difference With the current unicorns It is that these future business successes may be created and managed by a single person. It is at least what it promises according to some AI, which will multiply productivity and avoid having to depend on other people to generate spectacular value. It is already spoken of “Only Unicorns” either “One-Person Unicorns“And the impact that AI agents can have in this type of startups. An example that brings us closer to that future. Shlomo created his little startup, called Base44just six months ago, but at that time the growth of it was such that it ended up hiring six employees According to Ctech. This week he announced that he had sold his company to Wix – a Platform to create blogs and websites – for 80 million dollars. 25 of them which will go to Shlomo and their team as “bonus” to retain them and continue working in Wix – also Israeli – although there are no data for how long they will have to stay in the company to collect said bonus. Vibe Coding. The platform created by Shlomo Perimte users create applications or games without having programming experience. It is an example of That fever for Vibe Coding that we are seeing in the world of programming. In just a few months Base44 managed to attract 100,000 users, in addition to signing various agreements with several Israeli companies known as Etoro or Similarweb. A singular entrepreneur. Shlomo had already co -founded Explorium, a predictive analysis company of Big Data, at age 24. He also made her In a successbut he had to comply with Israeli military service. After completing the service at the end of 2024, he preferred not to return to Explorium and work on another project. He counting The origin and its progress when creating base44 through Your X account. In less than 60 days I already had 100,000 users and two weeks ago indicated that he had generated a benefit of $ 189,000. Far from being a unicorn. Shlomo’s success is remarkable, but of course it is far from being considered a unicorn and much less One of those “only unicorns” “It has several employees in your team,” that is spoken so much and that the theoretically promotes. And yet, it is a good example that artificial intelligence raises the future. The AI ​​agents are in diapers, but the promise is that they will automate a lot of processes for those who use them. That could impact significantly on the template that these future startups will need, but for now everything is, we insist, a promise. One that Shlomo has become a reality.

Ozempic and blindness, we have been on the track of an extremely rare adverse effect for months. Now the AEMPS has taken a step forward

by

A few days ago the The United Kingdom warned on an unexpected effect associated with the use of Ozempic and treatments based on the same principle, the phenomenon of Ozempic Babies. Now the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products (AEMPS) has also issued a statement but this time as a consequence of a very different effect. Adverse reaction. This week the AEMPS, the agency in charge of ensuring that the drugs meet the required standards, has issued A statement To warn of a very uncommon ocular adverse reaction “associated with treatments based on the semaglutida, the active compound of drugs such as Ozempic, Rybelsus or Wegovy. The notice occurs after the Committee for the Risk Assessment in Pharmacovigilance (PRAC) of the European Medication Agency (EMA) reviewed the risk of developing an ocular condition called Niana, which can cause loss of sudden vision. While the agency affects that the frequency of appearance of this type of eye problems is “very low”, it recommends that a sudden loss of vision is carried out an ophthanmological examination for Evaluate the possibility to interrupt the treatment. Noiana. Noiana is an acronym that refers to calls Previous ischemic optical neuropathiesNaion in English. These ailments are caused For the infarction of the optic nerve head. In other words, blood does not reach this eye region and a loss of vision occurs, which is typically fast but painless. It is an unknown and infrequent disease, not only in the context of those who follow a trailer treatment: its prevalence in the general population is approximately 10 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. A year on track. A year agoa study I found indications of the relationship between the treatments of Semaglutida and Niana. Indications such as those that gave rise to the evaluation by the Pract. The Committee reviewed clinical and preclinical essay data together with suspicion of adverse reactions, explains the AEMPS. This work resulted in the conclusion that trailer treatment can be associated with a risk of developing this disorder but indicate that with a very low frequency. The AEMPS speaks of “an increase in the risk of developing Niana of approximately double compared to people not exposed to this treatment. This corresponds to an additional case of NOIANA for every 10,000 patients treated with semagglutida for a year.” And what about the “other ozempic”? The AEMPS statement focuses on the drug -based drugs such as Ozempic, Rybelsus and Wegovy but does not indicate whether similar effects have been detected on similar treatments such as those based on the tirzepatida, such as Zepbound and Mounjaro. A medication with side effects. Like any drug, the semaglutida has a series of Contraindications and side effects. It should be remembered in this sense that the success of drugs such as Ozempic began when it was observed that this treatment against diabetes made those who followed it lost weight.
