Más vegetales, menos animales: Una alimentación más saludable y sostenible
by Julio Basulto Juanjo CáceresMás vegetales, menos animales aborda el tema de la alimentación vegetal, desmontando falsas creencias y proporcionando argumentos científicos que la avalan. La adopción de pautas alimentarias que dejan total o parcialmente de lado los productos de origen animal es considerada por la población, en ocasiones, una mera opción ideológica, carente de fundamento científico y hasta perniciosa para la salud. De entre dichas pautas, conocidas como «dietas basadas en plantas» (plant-based diets), destacan el vegetarianismo y el veganismo. Frente a ello, Julio Basulto y Juanjo Cáceres muestran por qué, de acuerdo con el conocimiento científico disponible, el patrón dietético que se relaciona con una mejor calidad de vida y, también, con una mayor esperanza de vida puede sintetizarse en la siguiente máxima: «Más vegetales, menos animales y nada o casi nada de carnes procesadas y alimentos superfluos». Los autores revisan también en esta obra aspectos históricos de la alimentación y de la hominización, desmintiendo que la alimentación basada en vegetales sea una moda reciente, así como las cuestiones ambientales, éticas e incluso económicas que avalan también optar por esta pauta dietética.

Männerschnupfen: Warum Männer immer mehr leiden als Frauen, wenn sie krank sind
by Peter Buchenau Ina Lackerbauer Urs Peter Janetz Marina TinzIn diesem Buch finden Sie alle Antworten darauf, warum bei Männern eine Erkältung nicht einfach nur eine Erkältung ist und sie stets denken, todsterbenskrank zu sein, auch wenn es ein einfacher Schnupfen ist. Haben Sie sich schon einmal gefragt, warum das so ist? Wir erklären es Ihnen: wie sich das Verhalten von Männern und Frauen generell unterscheidet, ob die Rollenbilder einen Einfluss auf das Phänomen des Männerschnupfens haben, warum Erkältungen von Männern und Frauen unterschiedlich wahrgenommen werden, warum Männer extrem und irrational besorgt sind, wenn sie krank werden, wie Frauen Schmerzen wahrnehmen. Augenzwinkernd und charmant formuliert - eine Ode an die neue Männlichkeit: der Schrei nach Aufmerksamkeit. Leidensszenario, Hausmittel und Therapievorschläge inklusive. Als besonderes Extra enthält die 2. Auflage Ausschnitte aus dem Männerschnupfen-Bühnenprogramm sowie ein Koch-Video.
Männerthemen und psychische Gesundheit von Männern: Eine Einführung
by Rob WhitleyTraditionell wurden die psychischen Probleme von Männern auf männlichen Starrsinn und starre Vorstellungen von Männlichkeit zurückgeführt. Es setzt sich jedoch zunehmend die Erkenntnis durch, dass die psychische Gesundheit von Männern durch eine Reihe von Faktoren wie familiäre, erzieherische, berufliche und rechtliche Probleme sozial bedingt ist. Diese und eine Vielzahl anderer sozialer Probleme wurden unter dem Begriff "Männerprobleme" zusammengefasst und werden zunehmend mit negativen Auswirkungen auf die psychische Gesundheit von Männern in Verbindung gebracht. Dieses Buch gibt einen Überblick über die psychische Gesundheit von Männern und damit zusammenhängende Männerthemen, wobei ein von der öffentlichen Gesundheit inspirierter Ansatz verfolgt wird, der die Forschung über den Zusammenhang zwischen sozialen Belastungen und psychischen Gesundheitsergebnissen untersucht. Das Buch ist insofern einzigartig, als es durch die Auswertung der sozialwissenschaftlichen und psychiatrischen Literatur Männerprobleme, die psychische Gesundheit von Männern und soziale Determinanten in einer ganzheitlichen und integrierten Weise zusammenfasst und untersucht.In diesem Buch erörtert der Autor die sozialen Determinanten der psychischen Gesundheit von Männern sowie begleitende psychosoziale Interventionen und geht dabei über eindimensionale Diskussionen über Männlichkeit hinaus. Zu den behandelten Themen gehören:Die sozialen Determinanten des männlichen SuizidsAufmerksamkeitsdefizit-/Hyperaktivitätsstörung bei jungen Männern: Die Medikalisierung der Jungenschaft?Warum nehmen Männer nur selten formelle psychiatrische Dienste in Anspruch? Eine Analyse sozialer und systemischer Hindernisse für die Versorgung und Diskussion vielversprechender männerfreundlicher PraktikenDas Geschlechtergefälle in der Bildung: Zum Verständnis der mangelnden schulischen Leistungen junger Männer und ihres Zusammenhangs mit negativer psychischer GesundheitBeschäftigung, Arbeitslosigkeit und Fragen des Arbeitsplatzes im Zusammenhang mit der psychischen Gesundheit von MännernMen's Issues and Men's Mental Health: An Introductory Primer ist eine unverzichtbare Lektüre für Angehörige der Gesundheitsberufe und Anbieter sozialer Dienste wie Psychiater, Psychologen, Sozialarbeiter, Ergotherapeuten, Berater, Lehrer, Mitarbeiter von Wohlfahrtsverbänden, Fachleute für Gesundheitsförderung und Beamte des öffentlichen Gesundheitswesens. Es ist auch ein nützlicher Text für Studenten im Grundstudium und im Hauptstudium in den Bereichen Gesundheitswesen, soziale Dienste, öffentliche Gesundheit, Epidemiologie und Sozialwissenschaften, insbesondere Soziologie, Psychologie und Geschlechterstudien. Schließlich kann das Buch auch von einem intelligenten Laien gelesen und verstanden werden, so dass es für die breite Öffentlichkeit zugänglich ist.

Müller Cells in the Healthy and Diseased Retina
by Andreas Reichenbach Andreas BringmannMüller cells may be used in the future for novel therapeutic strategies to protect neurons against apoptosis (for example, somatic gene therapy), or to differentiate retinal neurons from Müller/stem cells. Meanwhile, a proper understanding of the gliotic responses of Müller cells in the diseased retina, and of their protective vs. detrimental effects, is essential for the development of efficient therapeutic strategies that use and stimulate the neuron-supportive/-protective - and prevent the destructive - mechanisms of gliosis.
NADPH Oxidases: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology #1982)
by Ulla G. Knaus Thomas L. LetoThis detailed volume explores the NADPH oxidase family of enzymes in human physiology and genetic disease, in which early discoveries represent prime examples of the finest translational “from bed to bench and back” studies. Methods are included for testing assembly and function of multicomponent oxidase complexes and for analyzing reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in different systems by various means, while addressing pitfalls of ROS probes currently being used, as well as protocols on NADPH oxidase regulation and their function in cells. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introduction to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and cutting-edge, NADPH Oxidases: Methods and Protocols will aid researchers working with the NOX/DUOX family in continuing and expanding upon their vital research.
