ABSTRACT In this paper, I argue that contemporary psychiatry is confronting a paradigmatic crisis as it collides with posthuman critiques that challenge its foundational assumptions about subjectivity, knowledge, and governance. Rather than a neutral medical practice, psychiatry is theorized as an ontological apparatus embedded within broader regimes ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Psychiatric settings are high‐risk environments for violence. Coercive measures (CMs) and security technologies (STs) can be used to ensure safety. However, limited evidence exists on how Italian mental health nurses (MHNs) perceive the appropriateness of such practices and the influencing factors.

Acupuncture: A Promising Non‐Pharmacological Approach to Parkinson's Disease Management
The mechanism of acupuncture treatment of PD models involves oxidative stress, intestinal flora, neuroinflammation, autophagy, neurogenesis, pyroptosis, and apoptosis. ABSTRACT Purpose This review aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective effects of acupuncture in preclinical models of Parkinson's disease (PD).

Approximation of Discontinuous Functions by Positive Linear Operators. A Probabilistic Approach
ABSTRACT We obtain approximation results for general positive linear operators satisfying mild conditions, when acting on discontinuous functions and absolutely continuous functions having discontinuous derivatives. The upper bounds, given in terms of a local first modulus of continuity, are best possible, in the sense that we can construct particular ...

Bottled Water and the Social Sciences: A Review and Agenda for Future Research
ABSTRACT Social sciences approach the steady rise of bottled water consumption at the beginning of the 21st century from four analytical vantage points: political economy, semiotics and lifestyle, political ecology, and materiality‐centered. Each analytic has crucial methodological and conceptual contributions to make, as well as zones of potential ...

Quantum stochastic operator cocycles via associated semigroups. [PDF]
A recent characterisation of Fock-adapted contraction operator stochastic cocycles on a Hilbert space, in terms of their associated semigroups, yields a general principle for the construction of such cocycles by approximation of their stochastic ...

Dunkl generalization of Phillips operators and approximation in weighted spaces
The purpose of this article is to introduce a modification of Phillips operators on the interval [ 1 2 , ∞ ) $[ \frac{1}{2},\infty ) $ via a Dunkl generalization. We further define the Stancu type generalization of these operators as S n , υ ∗ ( f ; x ) =

“The Way They Speak of Masters and Johnson”: The Rise and Disappearance of Sex Therapy, 1960–2000
ABSTRACT A keyword search of “sex therapy” in the New York Times shows a rapid rise for articles covering the discipline in the 1970s, an equally rapid reduction in the 1980s, and further decline in the 1990s and into the 2000s. This surprising inflection, given that sex as a marketable construction did not decline in the late 20th century, opens room ...
