1) YAWNING-A CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE.
FROM FOETUS TO FATHER,ALL OF US YAWN MANY TIMES DURING OUR LIFE TIME .VARIOUS POSTULATIONS MADE .SOME ARE:1) OXYGEN LACK, 2) CARBONDIOXIDE ACCUMILATION IN THE BLOOD. 3)AN INVOLUNTARY ACT. 4)NEUROCHEMICAL TRANSMITTERS AFFECTING THE BRAIN TISSUE.5)ASSOCIATED WITH SEIZURE DISORDER LIKE EPILEPSY.6)AN EXPRESSION OF BOREDOM DUE TO PSYCHOLOGICAL DECOMPRESSION.7) A WAY TO REGULATE THE TEMPERATURE OF BLOOD CIRCULATING IN THE BRAIN8)EVEN COMPARED TO AN AIR COOLED ENGINE RADIATER AS IF AN YAWN IS ATHERMOREGULATER.

A U T H E R 'S C O N C E P T:

THOUGH THIS IS ALSO A CONCEPT, THIS CAN NOT BE DISMISSED UNLESS DISPROOVED
BY CERTAIN LAB STUDIES, SPECIALLY BACKED BY E.E.G. STUDIES, DURING WAKEFULNESS,DURING SLEEP, DURING YAWNING.FOLLOWING SCIENTIFICALLY PROOVEN FACTS CAN BE CONSIDERED TO UPHOLD THIS CONCEPT.
A) THIS IS A SLEEP RELATED PHYSICAL SIGN.B)A SIGN RELATED TO BRAIN STIMULATION BY VISION,HEARING,OR BOTH.C)A PREMONITARY SIGN PRIOR TO SEISURE DISORDER . IN ALL THE ABOVE,THERE IS DEFINITE CHANGE OF PATTERN OF E.E.G.,SPECIALLY THEETA WEAVES.

REFERENCES AVAILABLE TO THE EFFECT THAT THERE IS A 30% INCREASE IN THE HEART RATE AFTER YAWNING. BUT BEFORE &DURING YAWNING IT IS MOST LIKELY TO BE 30%LESS CONFIRMING,THAT THE ACT OF YAWNING ITSELF, IS NOTHING BUT A NEURALOGICAL MECHANISM THAT ARRESTS CIRCULATION FOR FEW SECONDS THEREBY PROOVING THAT THERE IS AN ELEMENT OF ELECTRICAL DYSRHYTHMIA
WHICH CAUSES YAWNING & IS AKIN TO A SEISURE DISORDER MOST OFTEN FOLLOWED OR PRECEDED BY SLEEP &CAN BE CONFIRME BY 24 HOUR E,E,G. YAWNING ITSELF IS CONSIDERED BY MANY CLINICIANS AS A VARAENT OF AN EPILEPTIC EQUIVALANT.YAWNING AS A PREMONITARY SIGN OF EPILESY IS WELL DOCUMENTED.
