Who do not want to be shot, but if you are unfortunate enough going to be shot, if you take off your clothes at this time, the situation is slightly more optimistic.
A new study in the "Journal of orthopedic surgery and research," published in the New Zealand researchers have made an interesting point of view.
The researchers conducted experiments with deer bones found jeans Ningbu single bullet will increase the chance of causing a fracture, because a single shot Ningbu increases the overall pressure of the moment by the organization, but also to a larger area of bullet holes.
In addition to fractures, the gun will make you subject to other types of injuries, but the researchers say this discovery is very useful, can help us better understand the specific process of bullet damage human tissue.
For the study, the researchers collected from a nearby factory deer bone, and ballistic gelatin - an analog of human organization gel, deer bones wrapped up.
Some of these deer bones wrapped in one or two single Ningbu, some do not, but the point is the same all wrapped ballistic gelatin, researchers shot two deer bone, while carefully measuring the bullet hit gelatin pressure on and the instantaneous velocity bullet enters and leaves "fake meat" is like. The researchers did not aim bones shot, but let the bullets pierced gelatin, just touching the bone.
The reason to do this because there are fractures before the study found that most shootings are indirect causes - the reason is that when the fracture bullet organization within the organization violently tearing a temporary gap, enormous pressure will spread to the bone , causing a fracture. Experiments show that if the bullet from the bones of a 10 mm distance, as described above will result in fractures.
Back in New Zealand scientists to experiment, they found that a single bullet Ningbu actually increases the pressure exerted on the bones. Provisional organization open a cavity three times larger than the single Ningbu holes, meaning the bullet in this case can be drilled deeper, and still capable of causing fractures indirect: The results showed that the fracture to be caused by it, if you only wear clothes the bullet entered from the bone needs to be 20mm organization, without clothes, it will increase the difficulty of the job --10 mm.
In addition, the researchers also compared the position of 10 mm from the bones to bones and clothes do not wear clothes and bones design results deeper fracture of the former, more complicated, but also more than one fracture.
So do not wear clothes to a safe point, huh?
It may not be the case. Although the study is interesting, but the damage is not just gunshot fractures. (However, the annual report of the American wounded by gunfire in the 45% relates to fracture)
The researchers also found that the clothes may cause adverse factors that shrapnel - Experiment hit parcel Ningbu deer bone bullets mostly broken into shrapnel - and their chosen specialty is precisely the bullet does not produce shrapnel Types of. Shrapnel body will cause more damage, which is why the United Nations and other international organizations have agreed that no shrapnel bullets in war more humane kind of bullets. Clothes make bullets increased risk of rupture.
In addition, clothing fibers will increase in the extent of tissue damage, increase the chance of infection after the shot, it seems that this opinion points, shot better than bare clothes shot better.
