CAN KILL THE “KYAI” ?
Reviews of Progress, (October 2013)
Abstract
Is usually the belief that a powerful cry emerged from the abdomen,
practitioners of martial arts, called Kyai, you can kill someone and, of course, to lose
consciousness or even cause general paralysis. All these feats are usually collected in
episodes of Oriental books but what is there in all this?
This demonstrated that people who have a heart disorder known as long QT
syndrome can die from a powerful hearing noise that comes on suddenly.
This anomaly may justify some of the legendary episodes recounted in
Oriental texts. Pathology is silent. Sudden death after physical exertion and / or
intense auditory stimulation.
In the 19th century and in the East many cardiocirculatory pathologies such
as hypertension, heart rhythm disturbances or valvular diseases are not diagnosed.
Nor were evident unless mediases intense efforts stres or intense situations. It is
possible that a Kyiai, of someone who had a reputation for great warrior, could trigger
the disease with fatal consequences, although their share I did not have to be high
since the stories are anecdotal and not given as usual facts.
Death by noise, in this case by the Kyai, is impossible if the heart is healthy. If
that can cause sudden loss of consciousness following the issuance of a Kyai. The
cause is due to the so-called "vasovagal syncope"
In this study we will evaluate the possibility of producing a loss of
consciousness after a Kyai. We will cherish electrocardiographically what happens in
different circumstances. We choose 12 people without cardiac problems divided into
four groups with different circumstances.
We will show that, if any, is the "glass vagal syncope" the cause of the loss of
consciousness. Death is impossible for cardiocirculatory rescue mechanisms
