Risk, Death, and Well-Being: The Ethical Foundations of Fatality Risk Regulation

6 days ago | academic.oup.com | Matthew Adler

A wide range of governmental policies seek to reduce individuals’ fatality risks—risks that arise from air and water pollution, pathogens, food ingredients and contaminants, motor vehicles, infrastructure, radiation, workplace accidents, alcohol and recreational drugs, firearms, consumer products, tobacco, natural disasters, and other sources. This book provides a rigorous treatment of the ethics of fatality risk regulation.
Shaping the future of marine socio-ecological systems science: combining interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches and knowledge co-creation with diverse stakeholders

1 week ago | academic.oup.com | L Vivian Richard |Alondra Rodríguez

Following the first symposium held in Brest, France, in 2016, the second Marine Socio-Ecological Systems Symposium (MSEAS) was held in Yokohama, Japan, in 2024, after 4 years of postponement due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2016, interdisciplinary efforts to inform ocean governance using the Social-Ecological System (SES) approach was highlighted as highly necessary.
Biocide exposure in extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-Kp): effect on increased biocide and antibiotic MICs, genetic changes and fitness cost

1 week ago | academic.oup.com | Francisco Javier

To test whether biocide exposure in ESBL-Kp isolates is associated with i) decreased susceptibility to biocides and antibiotics (co-resistance), ii) emergence of mutations, iii) changes in expression of efflux pump and porin genes, and iv) fitness cost. The MICs of chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX), benzalkonium chloride (BZK), sodium hypochlorite (SOD), propanol-based solution (PRO), povidone-iodine (POV), ethanol (ET) and triclosan (TRI) were determined against 57 isolates.
Alterations in the abundance of protamine proteoforms related to sperm chromatin packaging, obesity and age in normozoospermic men

2 weeks ago | academic.oup.com | Universitat de Barcelona |de la Iglesia |Juan Manuel |Andrology Unit

Protamines are considered among the most relevant sperm proteins because of their functional implications on paternal genome packaging and protection. Although the proteomic evaluation of protamines is technically challenging, mass spectrometry-based studies have shown a complex population of protamine proteoforms in the human sperm. This included intact, truncated and modified forms for protamine 1 (P1) and mature and immature components of protamine 2 family (P2).
The Purple One: Prince, Race, Gender, and Everything in Between

2 weeks ago | academic.oup.com | Shannon M. Cochran |Molly Reinhoudt

Prince (1958–2016) looms large in contemporary music history. Despite universal acclaim for his artistry, few scholars and writers have thoroughly treated the underlying ideas expressed in his work or examined his profound impact on popular culture. This book positions Prince in his proper cultural, political, and social place in history.
Mindprints: Thoreau's Material Worlds

2 weeks ago | academic.oup.com | Ivan Gaskell

Thoreau did not simply theorize his philosophy, he lived it. Although initially inspired by classical antiquity and the generalizing and deductive principles of transcendentalism, he came to respect the incoherence of multiple phenomena and viewpoints, speaking not of one world but of worlds.
Digital Technologies, Smart Cities, and the Environment: In the Ruins of Broken Promises

2 weeks ago | academic.oup.com | Liu Xin

At the heart of this book lies a troubling, yet crucial question: how to reconcile the rapid and expansive adoption of various smart technologies that are envisioned as environmentally beneficial, with the extensive environmental harms brought on by digitisation itself? Taking smart cities as one example of such complex relations between digital technologies and the environment, Adi Kuntsman and Liu Xin offer a paradigm-shifting approach to this conundrum.
The role of computed tomography and endoscopy in caustic esophageal injury in adults: a systematic review

3 weeks ago | academic.oup.com | Mayo Clinic Arizona |John Asher

Caustic esophageal injury can cause severe morbidity and mortality. Despite the need for emergent treatment, individual experience in diagnosis and management can be limited. Computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a promising non-invasive modality for assessing injury severity, but the clinical utility of both CT and endoscopy should be investigated. A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines.
Otto Rank and the Creation of Modern Psychotherapy

3 weeks ago | academic.oup.com | Robert Kramer

Robert Kramer argues that Otto Rank created the principles of modern psychotherapy. Drawing on Sigmund Freud’s invention of the analytic hour, Rank proposed that an authentic relationship heals emotional suffering, with self-empowerment of clients the goal. Today, the quality of the relationship is at the heart of all social work, counseling, and psychotherapy.
