Wie geht es dem Journalismus? Wie sieht es mit Diversität, politischer Orientierung und dem Selbstverständnis von Journalistinnen und Journalisten aus? Antworten darauf gibt es in einer Studie. "Journalismus unter Druck: Risiken und Unsicherheiten in einer sich wandelnden Medienwelt" ist Teil der weltgrößten Journalismusstudie „Worlds of Journalism“. Hier werden in einer repräsentativen Befragung viele Facetten des Berufsfeldes untersucht. Zu den Ergebnissen befragt Gastgeber Christian Jakubetz Anna von Garmissen. Sie ist in Deutschland am Leibniz-Institut für Medienforschung | Hans Bredow-Institut (HBI) tätig, das mit der Realisierung des Projekts betraut ist. Von September 2022 bis Februar 2023 hat das Meinungsforschungsinstitut Ipsos unter Leitung des HBI eine repräsentative Befragung hauptberuflicher Journalistinnen und Journalisten durchgeführt. Außer in den deutschen Länderreport fließen die Ergebnisse in Abstimmung mit den Projektteams in Österreich und der Schweiz in gemeinsame Analysen der DACH-Region sowie darüber hinaus in den globalen Vergleich ein. Die weltweite Koordination liegt bei der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. Näheres unter: https://leibniz-hbi.de/de/projekte/journalismus-unter-druck

On the recent Hanesbrands earnings call held on Thursday, February 15, 2024, CEO Stephen Bratspies introduced less than satisfying results with clear candor. He cited a problematic sales environment, particularly within the U.S. Activewear market and in Australia, as contributing factors to performance that did not meet both quarterly and annual expectations. Bratspies's explanation highlighted a volatile retail landscape. The acceleration of market demands, resultant of COVID-19's transformational impact on consumer behavior, was acknowledged as a significant factor. He further emphasized the emerging socio-political complexities and an intensifying competition as additional tributaries to the turbulent trading year. Bratspies, during the earnings call, was unambiguous about the challenges experienced by Hanesbrands. He underscored the necessity for the business to adapt swiftly to unfolding demographic advancements and market trends. His focus remained on the need to realign business strategies to be more customer-centric in an attempt to harness the evolving consumer preferences. While these strategies could hold potential for instilling adaptability and resilience within the business fabric of Hanesbrands, it's crucial that investors cast a realistic eye towards the future. As evidenced by the CEO's remarks on the earnings call, the challenges presented by the present market environment are both real and extensive. The non-meeting of expectations this quarter is a potent signal that Hanesbrands may have to navigate a steep path forward. In conclusion, the ability of the company to positively respond to these challenges and successfully meet consumer preferences will indeed be the true test of its long-term sustainability.

“We just need to figure out how to work better with the world around us. I think these hemp materials, natural building in general, is a way to move towards that so we can both have our great comforts that we've become accustomed to and work in harmony with our environment.” -Jacob Waddell, President of the Hemp Building Institute Construction is a stubborn field, as most people know. Despite this, hundreds, if not thousands, of attempts have been made to introduce new and innovative materials, processes, and solutions. Some of these ideas find their footing and find varying levels of success with customers and contractors. Jacob Waddell and the Hemp Building Institute believe that hemp can be one of those successes. Hemp, and the most popular form hempcrete, offer unique advantages over traditional construction materials. While green building continues to grow in popularity, hempcrete's carbon-negative nature offsets the many carbon-positive building elements. Perhaps the biggest advantage is the inherent insulation value it offers. Listen in as Jacob shares an inside look at the state of hemp as a building material, from code adoption to manufacturing to what the future holds. Topics discussed in this interview:- The upcoming Metal Roofing Summit- Upcoming goals of the Hemp Building Institute- What is hempcrete, and what are its uses?- Is hemp sustainable?- Jacob's experience empowering HBI's efforts- Bringing hemp construction over from Europe- Cost and efficacy testing of hemp- Other hemp building products and use cases- The IRC code adoption process- Collecting and comparing data on hemp buildings- Potential for job creation- Rapid fire questions To follow the Hemp Building Institute's efforts, visit hempbuildinginstitute.org, follow them on Facebook, or email Jacob@hempbuildinginstitute.org.For more Construction Disruption, listen on Apple Podcasts or YouTubeConnect with us on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedInThis episode was produced by Isaiah Industries, Inc.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrpChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

„Als Gesellschaft können wir es uns gar nicht leisten, NICHT über die Medienlandschaft zu berichten!“, sagt Anna von Garmissen. Über zwanzig Jahre lang hat sie in vielen namhaften Branchenblätter (journalist, kress, Übermedien, die Medienseiten der Süddeutschen Zeitung) den Journalismus kritisch beobachtet und weiß um die Notwendigkeit einer kritischen Begleitung von Medienleistungen. Vor allem in der aktuellen Pandemiesituation werde dies deutlich. Die Themen Transparenz und Glaubwürdigkeit etwa seien in der Vergangenheit von vielen Medienhäusern vernachlässigt worden. „Das fällt nun einigen auf die Füße. Sie müssen richtig strampeln, um dies nachzuholen.“ Diese Entwicklungen müsse der Medienjournalismus im Blick haben und ein breites Publikum daran teilhaben lassen. Wechsel in die Forschung Seit April 2021 arbeitet Anna von Garmissen als Forscherin am HBI. Ihre Wurzeln als Medienjournalistin sieht sie als Vorteil. „Ich bringe neue Aspekte mit rein, habe möglicherweise andere Herangehensweisen und natürlich ein entsprechendes Netzwerk innerhalb der Journalist:innen-Blase. Das ist nie verkehrt.“ Eine Herausforderung sieht sie jedoch auch: Durch ihre persönlichen Erfahrungen und ihre Verbundenheit zum Journalismus gehen ihr die Forschungsthemen emotional nahe. In ihrem aktuellen Projekt „Journalismus unter Druck“ erforscht sie aktuelle Bedrohungen für Journalist:innen und wie sie damit umgehen – von Hassmails bis zu körperlichen Angriffen auf Demonstrationen. „Das Thema berührt micht sehr. Wahrscheinlich mehr als so manche Kollegin, die eine größere Distanz zu der Sache hat.“ Brücke zwischen Forschung und Praxis Wünschenswert für Medienjournalismus sowie –forschung wäre, wenn sich die Beziehung der zwei Bereiche intensivieren würden. „Als Medienjournalistin bekommt man oft nur am Rande mit, was in der Forschung gerade passiert. Das ist schade. Wir bräuchten stabilere Brücken.“

Ronald F. Levant, Ed.D., ABPP, earned his doctorate in Clinical Psychology and Public Practice from Harvard University. He was on the faculty of Boston University, where he directed the nationally prominent Fatherhood Project, Rutgers University, Harvard Medical School at The Cambridge Hospital, and the Center for Psychological Studies, Nova Southeastern University, where he also served as Dean. He is currently Professor Emeritus of Psychology, The University of Akron, where he was Dean of the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences, Professor of Psychology, and Core Faculty in the Counseling Psycholgy Program. Dr. Levant was the 2005 President of APA, and served as the Editor of the Psychology of Men and Masculinity from 2007-2015. Dr. Levant has authored, co-authored, edited or co-edited 19 books and over 250 peer-reviewed refereed journal articles and book chapters in the psychology of men and masculinities, family and gender psychology, and advancing professional psychology. He has developed and evaluated a number of psychological measures designed to assess a variety of gender-related constructs. These include: The original Male Role Norms Inventory (MRNI), the Revised (MRNI-R), the Short Form (MRNI-SF), the Very Brief Form (MRNI-VB) and the Adolescent (MRNI-A) and Adolescent-revised (MRNI-A-r) versions. In addition he developed the Normative Male Alexithymia Scale (NMAS) and Brief Form (NMAS_BF), The Femininity Ideology Scale (FIS) and Short Form (FIS-SF), the Health Behavior Inventory-20 (HBI-20) and Short Form (HBI-SF), the Women's Non-Traditional Sexuality Questionnaire (WNSQ), the Father's Expectations About Son's Masculinity Scale (FEASMS), and the Aging Adult's Masculinity Ideology Inventory (AAMII). Dr. Levant's signature contribution has been in establishing the empirical foundation for the “Normative Male Alexithymia” hypothesis. In addition, Levant developed Alexithymia Reduction Treatment (ART), a brief psychoeducational intervention designed to remediate normative male alexithymia in order to prepare men to engage more fully in psychotherapy. ART is designed as an adjunctive treatment that can be administered prior to, or concurrently with, standard care. Recently, Dr. Levant was on our show talking about Masculinity and Violence. During our conversation, Dr. Levant talked about: – Some of his background, his journey studying manhood and fatherhood and some of his thoughts on masculinity – The impact of boys who don't express their feelings – The story behind The Tough Standard – The kind of boy or man who would shoot someone – The impact of the media and how a man was raised when he was a boy in regards to men and violence – Letting children be who they are – The impact that the pandemic has had on masculinity and violence and men and masculinity – His concerns and solutions when it comes to masculinity and violence – Three reasons why masculinity is problematic – His message for parents and teachers when it comes to interacting with boys You can find more information about Dr. Levant via: Website The Tough Standard Visit The Dr. Vibe Show™ at https://www.thedrvibeshow.com/ Please feel free to email us at dr.vibe@thedrvibeshow.com Please feel free to “Like” the “The Dr. Vibe Show” Facebook Fan Page here God bless, peace, be well and keep the faith, Dr. Vibe 2020 Podcast News Award Winner – Canadian Ethnic Media Association 2018 Innovation Award Winner – Canadian Ethnic Media Association The Dr. Vibe Show™ At “The Good Men Project” One of the first Brand Ambassador's – Cuisine Noir Magazine Dr. Vibe – Producer And Co-host of Black Men Talking On WJMS Radio Dr. Vibe on HuffPost Live – August 2, 2013 2013 Black Weblog Awards Finalist (Best Podcast) 2012 Black Weblog Awards Winner (Best International Blog) 2012 Black Weblog Awards Finalist (Best Podcast) 2011 Black Weblog Awards Finalist (Best International Blog and Best Podcast Series) Black Blog Of The Day – Black Bloggers Network – June 23, 2011 Twitter Twitter hashtag: #DrVibe The Dr. Vibe Show™ – iTunes The Dr. Vibe Show™ – Spotify Dr. Vibe Media – You Tube The Dr. Vibe Show™ – Stitcher Radio The Dr. Vibe Show™ – TuneIn Radio The Dr. Vibe Show™ – Google Podcasts The Dr. Vibe Show™ – iHeartRadio The Dr. Vibe Show™ at Anchor Linkedin – The Dr. Vibe Show™ Instagram The Dr. Vibe Show Facebook Fan Page
Mit Expert*innen aus Journalismus, Wissenschaft, Integrationsarbeit und NGOs hat eine Forschungsgruppe des HBI die Rolle des Journalismus im gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt diskutiert. In vier Online-Gruppendiskussionen tauschten sich die Teilnehmenden aus über den Zusammenhang zwischen Journalismus und gesellschaftlichem Zusammenhalt und entwickelten Ideen, wie ein „zusammenhaltssensibler“ Journalismus aussehen könnte. Die Ergebnisse dieser Diskussionen bündelten Verena Albert und ihre Kolleg*innen in einem Arbeitspapier. „Die Mehrheit der Teilnehmenden hält einen starken gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt für einen wünschenswerten Zustand, zu dem Journalismus beitragen könne“, sagt Verena Albert. Einige Expert*innen seien aber auch der Ansicht gewesen, dass die Förderung gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalts kein grundlegendes Ziel des Journalismus sei, sondern eher ein Nebenprodukt von “gutem”, professionellen Regeln folgendem Journalismus. Wie genau kann dies aber gelingen? In den Gru ppengesprächen haben sich drei Kernfragen herauskristallisiert: (1) Inwiefern erreicht Journalismus die Gesellschaft? (2) Wie bildet er die Gesellschaft ab? Und (3): Wie fördert er Dialog innerhalb der Gesellschaft?

Vitamin B6 deficiency enhances the noradrenergic system, leading to behavioral deficits Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science, May 27, 2021 Schizophrenia is a heterogeneous psychiatric disorder characterized by positive symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions, negative symptoms such as apathy and lack of emotion, and cognitive impairment. We have reported that VB6 (pyridoxal) levels in peripheral blood of a subpopulation of patients with schizophrenia is significantly lower than that of healthy controls. More than 35% of patients with schizophrenia have low levels of VB6 (clinically defined as male: < 6 ng/ml, female: < 4 ng/ml). VB6 level is inversely proportional to severity score on the positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS), suggesting that VB6 deficiency might contribute to the development of schizophrenia symptoms. In fact, a recent review has shown the decreased VB6 in patients with schizophrenia as the most convincing evidence in peripheral biomarkers for major mental disorders. Additionally, we recently reported that high-dose VB6 (pyridoxamine) was effective in alleviating psychotic symptoms, particularly the PANSS negative and general subscales, in a subset of patients with schizophrenia. Although a link between lower VB6 level and schizophrenia is widely hypothesized, the mechanism behind this remains poorly understood. VB6 is not synthesized de novo in humans, but is primarily obtained from foods. In the present study, to clarify the relationship between VB6 deficiency and schizophrenia, we generated VB6-deficient (VB6(-)) mice through feeding with a VB6-lacking diet as a mouse model for the subpopulation of schizophrenia patients with VB6 deficiency. After feeding for 4 weeks, plasma VB6 level in VB6(-) mice decreased to 3% of that in control mice. The VB6(-) mice showed social deficits and cognitive impairment. Furthermore, the VB6(-) mice showed a marked increase in 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) in the brain, suggesting enhanced NA metabolism in VB6(-) mice. We confirmed the increased NA release in the prefrontal cortex and the striatum of VB6(-) mice through in vivo microdialysis. These findings suggest that the activities of NAergic neuronal systems are enhanced in VB6(-) mice. Furthermore, VB6 supplementation directly into the brain using an osmotic pump ameliorated the hyperactivation of the NAergic system and behavioral abnormalities. indicating that the enhanced NA turnover and the behavioral deficits shown in the VB6(-) mice are attributed to VB6 deficiency in the central nervous system. In addition, the ?2A adrenergic receptor agonist guanfacine also improved the hyperactivated NAergic system in the frontal cortex and behavioral disorders. These results show that the behavioral deficits in VB6(-) mice may be caused by an enhancement of NAergic signaling. Schizophrenic patients with VB6 deficiency, who account for more than 35% of all patients, present with relatively severe clinical symptoms and treatment resistance. Our findings suggest that a new therapeutic strategy targeting the NAergic system might be effective for these patients. They will also provide evidence based on pathophysiology for a new therapeutic strategy called "VB6 treatment for schizophrenia," which we are currently conducting clinical research on. Families with a child with ADHD can benefit from mindfulness training Radboud University Medical Center (Netherlands), May 27, 2021 Children with ADHD are generally treated with medication and/or behavioral treatments. However, medication-alone is insufficient in a quarter to a third of the children. For that reason, the scientists investigated whether a mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) would have a positive effect on children who did not respond sufficiently to other ADHD treatments. MBIs can elicit positive effects on psychological symptoms and behavior of children and parents. In the study, two groups of children between the ages of eight and sixteen were compared. One group received only regular care (CAU, care-as-usual), and the other group also received MYmind, the mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) with at least one parent. They did this training for a period of eight weeks. A striking result was that parents especially benefited from this training. There was an increase in mindful parenting, self-compassion and an improvement in mental health among the parents. These effects were still visible six months after the end of the training. In the children, there were some effects on ADHD symptoms, anxiety, and autistic traits, but effects were small. Yet, a subgroup appeared to benefit: One in three children reliably improved on self-control following MYmind, whereas only one in ten improved when following only regular care. Professor of Environmental Sensitivity in Health and psychologist Corina Greven of Radboudumc, the Donders Institute and Karakter says that usual interventions for children with ADHD typically do not target mental health of parents, although they often struggle with parenting stress, anxiety or own ADHD symptoms. "While effects in children were small, we still found effects in the parents. Interviewing families , our team also discovered that many families reported important improvements in family relationships and insight in and acceptance of ADHD. We need to go broader than just looking at whether an intervention reduces symptoms, and include additional outcomes that families find important." The study was conducted in collaboration with the Radboud Center for Mindfulness. Sweet cherry anthocyanins support liver health Zhei-Jang University (China), June 1, 2021 Anthocyanins from sweet cherries may protect against diet-induced liver steatosis, or excessive amounts of fat in the liver’s tissue, says a new study with rats. The study , published in the journal Nutrition, built upon the abundant existing literature on the beneficial role anthocyanins have as an antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-hyperlipidemic component. Specifically, the cyanidin-3-glucoside variant “[has] been reported to ameliorate hepatic steatosis and adipose inflammation,” the researchers wrote. The condition known as liver steatosis is a common non-alcoholic fatty liver disease usually treated with drugs, but according to the researchers, some drug used for treatment “are usually accompanied by some adverse effect.” For 15 weeks, the researchers investigated the effects of sweet cherry anthocyanin supplementation have on alleviating high-fat diet-induced liver steatosis in rodents to explore the possibility of a none-drug treatment for the liver condition. Preparing the mice and the sweet cherry anthocyanins The sweet cherry anthocyanin was extracted and pulverized, with one mg of the anthocyanin measured to contain amounts of cyanidine-3-rutinoside and pelargonidin-3-rutinoside, among other things. Thirty male rodents were used for the study. The animals were housed five per cage and randomly divided into three groups: 10 rodents fed a low-fat diet, 10 rodents fed a high-fat diet, and 10 rodents fed a high-fat diet supplemented with sweet cherry anthocyanins. The supplementation was given in liquid form at 200 mg/kg orally at the same time daily for 15 weeks, and the body weights and food intakes were monitored weekly. Observations The mice were sacrificed at week 15 after a half-day fast. Blood samples were collected and livers collected, rinsed with cold saline, and then weighed. An automatic biochemistry analyser was used to measure total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. They found that at week 15, mice fed a high-fat diet supplemented with sweet cherry anthocyanins “displayed a significant reduction in body weight, liver weight, and liver index” compared to the mice that were only given a high-fat diet without supplementation. They also found the serum levels for tricylglycerol, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in high-fat diet mice to be substantially higher than those fed a low-fat diet, but the group supplemented with the anthocyanin resulted in a significant reduction in these serum parameters.” According to the researchers, the results demonstrated how sweet cherry anthocyanins may be developed into a supplement to “protect from high-fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis in mice,”leading to a suggested potential for the anthocyanin’s application in the “treatment of hepatic steatosis and other obesity related metabolic disorders.” Healthy lifestyle linked to better cognition for oldest adults -- regardless of genetic risk New study suggests importance of maintaining healthy lifestyle even after age 80 Duke University & Kunshan University (China), June 1, 2021 A new analysis of adults aged 80 years and older shows that a healthier lifestyle is associated with a lower risk of cognitive impairment, and that this link does not depend on whether a person carries a particular form of the gene APOE. Xurui Jin of Duke Kunshan University in Jiangsu, China, and colleagues present these findings in the open-access journal PLOS Medicine. The APOE gene comes in several different forms, and people with a form known as APOE ε4 have an increased risk of cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. Previous research has also linked cognitive function to lifestyle factors, such as smoking, exercise, and diet. However, it has been unclear whether the benefits of a healthy lifestyle are affected by APOE ε4, particularly for adults over 80 years of age. To clarify the relationship between APOE ε4 and lifestyle, Jin and colleagues examined data from 6,160 adults aged 80 or older who had participated in a larger, ongoing study known as the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey. The researchers statistically analyzed the data to investigate links between APOE ε4, lifestyle, and cognition. They also accounted for sociodemographics and other factors that could impact cognition. The analysis confirmed that participants with healthy lifestyles or intermediately healthy lifestyles were significantly less likely to have cognitive impairment than those with an unhealthy lifestyle, by 55 and 28 percent, respectively. In addition, participants with APOE ε4 were 17 percent more likely to have cognitive impairment than those with other forms of APOE. A previous study suggested that in individuals at low and intermediate genetic risk, favorable lifestyle profiles are related to a lower risk of dementia compared to unfavorable profiles. But these protective associations were not found in those at high genetic risk. However, the investigation showed the link between lifestyle and cognitive impairment did not vary significantly based on APOE ε4 status which represented the genetic dementia risk. This suggests that maintaining a healthier lifestyle could be important for maintaining cognitive function in adults over 80 years of age, regardless of genetic risk. This cross-sectional study emphasized the importance of a healthy lifestyle on cognitive health. While further research will be needed to validate these findings among different population, this study could help inform efforts to boost cognitive function for the oldest of adults. In the next step, the team will explore this association using the AD polygenetic risk score (AD-PRS) and explore the interactive relationship between AD-PRS and lifestyle on cognition with the longitudinal data. Study shows BPA exposure below regulatory levels can impact brain development University of Calgary (Canada) June 1, 2021 BPA disrupts development of the mouse brain sleep centre (outlined), image on right. The change can impact behaviour. The control image on the left ("CON") shows sleep centre without BPA. Credit: Kurrasch lab, published in Science Advances Humans are exposed to a bath of chemicals every day. They are in the beds where we sleep, the cars that we drive and the kitchens we use to feed our families. With thousands of chemicals floating around in our environment, exposure to any number is practically unavoidable. Through the work of researchers like Dr. Deborah Kurrasch, Ph.D., the implications of many of these chemicals are being thoroughly explored. "Manufacturers follow standards set by regulatory bodies, it's not up to the manufacturers to prove the chemicals in consumer products are safe," says Kurrasch, a researcher in the University of Calgary's Hotchkiss Brain Institute (HBI) and Alberta Children's Research Institute at the Cumming School of Medicine. "Scientists play a critical role and do the meticulous work of determining where the risks lie." Kurrasch's research over the past decade has focused on a chemical that is broadly recognizable: Bisphenol A, also known as BPA. This chemical is commonly found in plastics, canned food linings, and even thermal receipts. Studies from Kurrasch's lab contribute to the collective research that shows the harms of exposure to this industrial compound. The latest study out of Kurrasch's lab, published in Science Advances, suggests that continued vigilance is needed. A postdoctoral researcher in her lab, Dr. Dinu Nesan, Ph.D., examined the impact of low levels of BPA exposure to pregnant mice and the brain development of their offspring. "Our goal was to model BPA levels equivalent to what pregnant women and developing babies are typically exposed to," says Kurrasch. "We purposefully did not use a high dose. In fact, our doses were 11-times and nearly 25-times lower than those deemed safe by Health Canada and the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration), respectively. Even at these low levels, we saw effects on prenatal brain development in the mice." Using this BPA exposure model, Nesan found striking changes to the brain region responsible for driving circadian rhythms, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, located in the hypothalamus. When prenatally exposed to these low levels of BPA, the suprachiasmatic nucleus failed to develop properly. This change can have implications for sleep, activity levels, and other behaviors. "Previously we showed embryonic exposure to low-dose BPA can affect the timing of when neurons develop in zebrafish, but it was unclear whether a similar effect would be observed in a mammalian model with more similarities to humans," says Nesan, first author on the study. When neurons develop, they rely on proper signals to guide them. If neurons develop too early, the cues they experience are different, which can lead to developmental errors such as migrating to the wrong location, becoming the wrong type of neuron, or forming inappropriate connections. These errors can lead to altered behaviors later in life. "Our study shows that in pregnant mice, prenatal exposure to BPA affects the timing of neuron development in the fetal brain, which has lasting effects on behaviors. Offspring that are exposed to BPA during gestation are awake longer and exhibit hyperactivity. The prenatal BPA exposure seems to change the brain's circadian cues, causing the animals to have elevated energy levels and spend less time resting," says Nesan. The researchers are hopeful their findings will add continued pressure on regulatory bodies to keep revisiting their determinations around safe levels of BPA. "We think there's an incredible abundance of data showing BPA exposure guidelines are not yet at the appropriate level, which includes even the EU (European Union) who is leading on this front, but their 'safe' levels are still twice the dose we used in our study" says Kurrasch, "We hope our research serves as a reminder that low dose BPA is still capable of causing changes that are measurable and significant." Her message of how to interpret this research is simple: Limit your exposure to BPA the best you can. Maintain smart practices with plastics in your kitchen, for example not heating them, and using glass or stainless steel when possible. This research was conducted in collaboration with Dr. Michael Antle, Ph.D., professor of psychology and member of the HBI. Selenium plus CoQ10 intake associated with reductions in D-dimer and cardiovascular mortality Linköping University (Sweden), June 2, 2021 Findings from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, published on April 17, 2021 in the journal Nutrients,revealed a reduction in D-dimer levels among older Swedish men and women who received selenium and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), as well as a lower risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease in individuals having higher D-dimer levels at baseline. Coenzyme Q10 is an antioxidant involved in the mitochondria’s production of energy. It has been estimated that the body’s production of CoQ10 at the age of 80 years is approximately half that of someone who is 20 years old. Selenium is a trace element necessary for normal function of human cells. Dietary intake of this mineral may be insufficient in areas of the world that have low soil selenium levels. Selenium also is necessary for the function of many antioxidant enzymes, including one which recycles CoQ10, and has anti-inflammatory activity. D-dimer is a fragment of degraded fibrin and is commonly used to assess for the presence or degradation of potentially dangerous blood clots (venous thromboembolism or pulmonary embolism). It also reflects the activity of peripheral artery disease and has been shown to be associated with endothelial dysfunction and inflammation even in the absence of thromboembolism. The current investigation included 213 men and women aged 70 to 88 years who did not have conditions known to influence D-dimer concentrations (e.g., atrial fibrillation, malignancies). Participants received a placebo or 200 micrograms selenium plus 200 milligrams CoQ10 daily for four years. Blood samples collected from the subjects upon enrollment in the trial and at 48 months were analyzed for levels of D-dimer. Although D-dimer levels were not significantly different between groups at the beginning of the trial, it was noted to be significantly associated with age. At 48 months, a significantly lower level of D-dimer was found among those who received selenium and CoQ10 in comparison with the placebo, which was maintained after adjustment for co-variates that might influence D-dimer (such as C-reactive protein). When participants with D-dimer levels that were above the median of all participants at baseline were analyzed, an association was found between intake of selenium and CoQ10 and a lower risk of cardiovascular mortality. Among those whose D-dimer levels were higher than 0.21 mg/L at the beginning of the study, one person among 53 who received selenium and CoQ10 died during a median 4.9-year follow-up period compared to 8 of the 52 who received a placebo. Mortality from all causes was also lower in the selenium and CoQ10 group; however, the reduction failed to reach statistical significance. This group also reported a larger study, which didn’t exclude individuals having conditions known to increase D-dimer, finding that in the older Swedish citizens the combination of selenium and CoQ10 significantly increased heart systolic function, lowered NT-proBNP (which is elevated during heart failure) and decreased risk of cardiovascular mortality, defined as death from myocardial infarctions, cerebrovascular lesions, cardiac arrythmias, heart failure or aortic aneurysms.1 “[Intake of] selenium and coenzyme Q10 in a group of elderly low in selenium and coenzyme Q10 prevented an increase in D-dimer and reduced the risk of cardiovascular mortality in comparison with the placebo group,” concluded first author Urban Alehagen and his colleagues. “The obtained results also illustrate important associations between inflammation, endothelial function and cardiovascular risk.” Effect of Korean Red Ginseng on Cognitive Function and Quantitative EEG in Alzheimer Patients Seoul Medical Center (Korea) June 1, 2021 Researchers detail new data in Neurodegenerative Diseases. According to news reporting originating in Seoul, South Korea research stated, "Korean red ginseng (KRG) has a nootropic effect. This study assessed the efficacy of KRG on cognitive function and quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD)." The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Seoul Medical Center, "Fourteen patients with AD (mean age, 74.93 years; 11 women and 3 men) were recruited and treated with KRG (4.5 g per day) for 12 weeks. Cognitive function was assessed by the Korean Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE) and the Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB). EEG performed before and after treatment were analyzed with quantitative spectral analysis. The FAB score improved significantly after 12 weeks of treatment. In the relative power spectrum analysis performed according to responsiveness, alpha power increased significantly in the right temporal area of the responders. The increments of relative alpha power in the right temporal, parietal, and occipital areas were significantly higher in the responders than the nonresponders." According to the news reporters, the research concluded: "This study indicates the efficacy of KRG on frontal lobe function in AD, related to increasing relative alpha power."

Dass aus ihm später kein schlitzohriger Anwalt würde, war Stephan schon als junger Student klar. Während seines ersten Praktikums in einer Kanzlei musste er feststellen, dass „Anwälte dazu da sind, sich zu streiten. Ich mag Streit aber nicht besonders“, sagt er. „Lieber diskutiere ich über gemeinsame Lösungen.“ Dann also Forschung. In diese rutschte er eher zufällig und zwar über das HBI. Auf der Suche nach einem Studentenjob bewarb sich Stephan zunächst für eine Stelle des IT-Admin. Damals in den Neunzigern, brannte er für alles, was mit Computern und dem Internet zu tun hatte, und programmierte bereits selbstständig Websites. Als HBI-Direktor Wolfgang Schulz beim Bewerbungsgespräch überrascht feststellte, dass Stephan Jura studierte, stellte er ihn kurzerhand als rechtswissenschaftliche Hilfskraft ein. Diese Arbeit machte ihm so viel Freude, dass er fortan immer weniger Zeit den Hörsälen der rechtswissenschaftlichen Fakultät und immer mehr im HBI verbrachte. Gute Leute im Medienrecht gefragt Der Weg in die Wissenschaft sei kein typischer für einen Juristen, sagt Stephan. Das Jurastudium sei eigentlich darauf ausgelegt, Studierende für juristische Berufe, also Anwält*in, Richter*in, Notar*in, etc., zu befähigen. Forscher*innen brächte es wenige hervor, obwohl es für sie durchaus Bedarf gäbe, insbesondere im Bereich Medienrecht. Jura-Studierenden, die sich gegen eine „klassische“ Jurist*innenkarriere entscheiden, rät Stephan daher, sich zu überlegen, ob das Medienrecht nicht etwas für sie sei. „In diesem Bereich werden wir in Zukunft sehr viele, sehr gute Leute brauchen.“
Vier Monate lang, von Juli bis Oktober 2020, hat unser Institut die EU-Medienkonferenz wissenschaftlich begleitet. Die Konferenzserie fand im Rahmen der deutschen EU-Ratspräsidentschaft statt. Ziel war die Diskussion über einen für alle Mitgliedstaaten einheitlichen gesetzlichen Rahmen für die europäische Medienlandschaft. Wolfgang Schulz und Amélie Heldt erzählen im Detail, worüber während der Konferenz diskutiert wurde, zu welchen Ergebnissen man kam und welche Akzente das HBI bei der wissenschaftlichen Begleitung gesetzt hat. Zusammenspiel von Wissenschaft und Politik Als Wissenschaftler die Politik zu beraten sei nicht immer einfach, sagt Wolfgang Schulz. „Herausfordernd sind schon die unterschiedlichen Zeithorizonte. Politik verändert sich in nur sehr kleinen Schritten.“ Außerdem sei man beim wissenschaftlichen Beraten von Politiker*innen immer mit einem „Power Play“ konfrontiert. „Es gibt wohl kein generelles Interesse aller Akteure daran, dass sich die Medienregulierung kohärent und auf Fakten basierend gestaltet, sondern es geht auch um unterschiedliche Positionen. Wissenschaftlicher Rat kann da mal nützlich sein, mal kann er der eigenen Position entgegenstehen.“

On this episode: The majority of men and boys are not violent, men have poor health habits and they are dying more, how anger is the tip of the iceberg and under it are the vulnerable emotions, how young boys are taught to never show vulnerability, how parents play a unique roll in boys socialization, the way fatherhood is beginning to evolve and change, why anger is prohibited for girls and showing emotions is prohibited for boys, asking yourself: Is this a "you" problem or a "they" problem? and so much more! "Lust and aggression are the two emotional expressions that man are allow to have in society" "Some guys don´t realize that even if you´re not carrying the child, you still have an active involvement in every aspect" Book released everywhere on July 1, 2020: The Tough Standard: The Hard Truths About Masculinity and Violence Bio: Ronald F. Levant, Ed.D., ABPP, earned his doctorate in Clinical Psychology and Public Practice from Harvard University. He was on the faculty of Boston University, where he directed the nationally prominent Fatherhood Project, Rutgers University, Harvard Medical School at The Cambridge Hospital, and the Center for Psychological Studies, Nova Southeastern University, where he also served as Dean. He is currently Professor Emeritus of Psychology, The University of Akron, where he was Dean of the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences, Professor of Psychology, and Core Faculty in the Counseling Psycholgy Program. Dr. Levant was the 2005 President of APA, and served as the Editor of the Psychology of Men and Masculinity from 2007-2015. Dr. Levant has authored, co-authored, edited or co-edited 19 books and over 250 peer-reviewed refereed journal articles and book chapters in the psychology of men and masculinities, family and gender psychology, and advancing professional psychology. He has developed and evaluated a number of psychological measures designed to assess a variety of gender-related constructs. These include: The original Male Role Norms Inventory (MRNI), the Revised (MRNI-R), the Short Form (MRNI-SF), the Very Brief Form (MRNI-VB) and the Adolescent (MRNI-A) and Adolescent-revised (MRNI-A-r) versions. In addition he developed the Normative Male Alexithymia Scale (NMAS) and Brief Form (NMAS_BF), The Femininity Ideology Scale (FIS) and Short Form (FIS-SF), the Health Behavior Inventory-20 (HBI-20) and Short Form (HBI-SF), the Women's Non-Traditional Sexuality Questionnaire (WNSQ), the Father's Expectations About Son's Masculinity Scale (FEASMS), and the Aging Adult's Masculinity Ideology Inventory (AAMII). Dr. Levant's signature contribution has been in establishing the empirical foundation for the “Normative Male Alexithymia” hypothesis. In addition, Levant developed Alexithymia Reduction Treatment (ART), a brief psychoeducational intervention designed to remediate normative male alexithymia in order to prepare men to engage more fully in psychotherapy. ART is designed as an adjunctive treatment that can be administered prior to, or concurrently with, standard care. Let's connect over on Instagram: @Johnny.Elsasser
Eine neue Studie des HBI untersucht die Erwartungen der deutschen Bevölkerung an den Journalismus und vergleicht sie mit den Erwartungen, die Journalist*innen an sich selbst haben. Ergebnis: Zwischen beiden Parteien herrscht große Einigkeit darüber, was Journalismus leisten sollte. Die repräsentative Bevölkerungsumfrage wurde von der ZEIT-Stiftung gefördert. Johanna Sebauer hat mit den Autor*innen Prof. Dr. Wiebke Loosen und Dr. Sascha Hölig gesprochen Objektiv berichten, analysieren und Geschehnisse einordnen. Das – darüber sind sich Journalist*innen und ihr Publikum in Deutschland einig – sind die wichtigsten Aufgaben des Journalismus. Aber auch Toleranz und kulturelle Vielfalt innerhalb der Gesellschaft zu fördern, ist geboten. Besonders wichtig ist dem Publikum außerdem, dass Journalist*innen ihre Quellen transparent machen und ihre Themenauswahl erläutern. 1000 Leute wurden im Rahmen dieser Studie in einer repräsentativen Umfrage befragt. Die Ergebnisse wurden verglichen mit den Befunden der Worlds of Journalism-Studie von Hanitzsch et al., die deutsche Journalist*innen nach ihrem Rollenselbstverständnis gefragt. Wiebke Loosen und Sascha Hölig besprechen die Ergebnisse im Detail in dieser Episode.

For the first time, Facebook has given scientists direct access to its internal decision-making bodies. Researchers from the Hamburg-based Leibniz Institute for Media Research | Hans-Bredow-Institut (HBI) have investigated how Facebook develops communication rules for its platform. On the BredowCast researchers Wolfgang Schulz and Matthias C. Kettemann talk about research on new territory. Facebook's Community Standards regulate what users can say on Facebook and what must be taken down and thereby influence the ways in which 2.7 billion users interact with one another and, to some degree, perceive the world: These rules are an example of the profound influence that private regulations can have on public communication. In a pilot study, researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Media Research have investigated how Facebook develops its rules and which stakeholders are involved in this process. Matthias C. Kettemann, head of research of the Institute’s research program on online rule-making and a senior researcher at HBI, spent a week studying the practices of Facebook’s Product Policy Team which is responsible for developing community standards at the platform’s California headquarters. In addition, the researchers conducted extensive interviews with Facebook employees to develop a clear picture of how new speech-related norms are designed and how Facebook tries to increase their impact and legitimacy by engaging multiple stakeholders, from NGOs to academics. "We know a lot about the emergence of laws, but very little about the development of communication platforms’ internal rules, the rules under which Facebook deletes content and suspends users,” says Dr. Kettemann. "For a long time this was a black box," says Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Schulz, Director of HBI, "into which we are now able to shed some light”. Key Outomes One of the findings of the pilot project is that rule-setting processes at Facebook, on the problem of hate speech, for example, are initiated independently by employees or in response to user comments or media criticism. The main part of the norm-making process is essentially independent of national and international law, but, as the researchers were able to show, Facebook attempts to recreate the legitimacy-producing effect of clear procedures, broad consultation, and stakeholder engagement. The same is true for national law-making: the more open and engaging the process of passing a law is, the greater its legitimacy. In the BredowCast interview with Johanna Sebauer, the two researchers explain how the research project came about, what the everyday life of a field researcher looks like at Facebook and why researching private norms is important. Both media law experts emphasize: "Given the impact that private regulatory approaches have on the spheres of communicative freedom of individuals and the social cohesion of society, we need to better understand how these normative processes function. Our research lays the foundations to develop this understanding".
Bis zu drei Stunden sind Kinder und Jugendliche in Deutschland täglich online. Was sie dort machen, welche Gefahren ihnen begegnen und wie ihre Eltern die ganze Sache sehen, berichten Claudia Lampert und Kira Thiel in BredowCast Episode 49. Im Rahmen des länderübergreifenden europäischen Forschungsprojektes EU Kids Online wurden im Sommer 2019 über 1.000 Kinder und deren Eltern in Deutschland nach ihren Online-Nutzung befragt. Im BredowCast berichten die Autorinnen über die wichtigsten Ergebnisse der Respräsentativbefragung. Die Studie gibt einen Einblick in die Online-Erfahrungen der Kinder und Jugendlichen – sowohl die positiven als auch die negativen. Sie izeigt, wie Kinder ihre Online-Kompetenzen einschätzen und wie sie Gefahren wahrnehmen. In manchen Punkten unterscheiden sich ihre Antworten sehr deutlich von denen ihrer Eltern. „Für Eltern ist oft die größte Sorge, dass ihre Kinder im Internet von Fremden kontaktiert würden und es in Folge auch zu einem Kontakt in der realen Welt kommt“, erklärt Claudia Lampert. „Die Kinder verstehen hier oft gar nicht, wo das Problem liegt. Sie nutzen das Netz ja gerade, um Kontakte zu knüpfen mit Gleichaltrigen bzw. Gleichgesinnten. Sich dann auch im echten Leben zu treffen, erscheint ihnen völlig normal.“ Auf Basis der Ergebnisse formuliert die Studie außerdem Handlungsempfehlungen im Hinblick auf Schutz, Befähigung und Beteiligung von Heranwachsenden im Internet. Grob zusammenfassend formulieren es die Autorinnen Claudia Lampert und Kira Thiel im BredowCast mit dem einfachen Hinweis: „Eltern und Kinder sollten viel und sehr offen über die Online-Nutzung reden.“ Dr. Claudia Lampert ist Senior Researcher am Leibniz-Institut für Medienforschung | Hans-Bredow-Institut (HBI), sie erforscht unter anderemdas Aufwachsen in digitalisierten Medienumgebungen, Kira Thiel ist Junior Researcher am HBI und arbeitet vor allem im Projekt „EU Kids Online“. Zu ihren Forschungsinteressen zählen (negative) Emotionen bei der Mediennutzung Heranwachsender und insbesondere das zugehörige Bewältigungshandeln.
Das Internet ist zwar schon einige Dekaden alt, dennoch ranken sich zahlreiche Mythen um den abstrakten Raum „Cyberspace“. Die Internetexperten Matthias C. Kettemann und Stephan Dreyer haben ein Buch herausgegeben, das die 50 gängigsten Mythen wissenschaftlich entzaubert. Für den über 200 Seiten starken Sammelband „Stimmt’s? 50 Internetmythen auf dem Prüfstand“ haben Stephan Dreyer und Matthias C. Kettemann Internetexpert*innen aus Amerika, Afrika, Asien und Europa gebeten, die gängigsten und wirkmächtigsten Internetmythen zu analysieren und sie auf ihren Wahrheitsgehalt hin zu testen. Unter anderem wird erklärt, warum das Internet kein rechtsfreier Raum ist, dass das Internet sehr wohl vergessen kann und, dass dem Internet oftmals mehr emanzipatorisches Potenzial nachgesagt wird, als es tatsächlich leisten kann. Im Podcast erzählen die Herausgeber des Bands Gastgeberin Johanna Sebauer mehr über das Projekt und erklären einige, der darin vorgestellten Mythen. Präsentiert wird der Band am 27.11.2019 im Rahmen des Internet Governance Forums 2019, der weltgrößten UN-Internetkonferenz, die erstmalig in Berlin stattfindet. Auf der Konferenz wird der Sammelband zudem als Give-Away an alle Besucherinnen und Besucher verteilt. Ab 25. November 2019 ist der Inhalt außerdem online verfügbar unter internetmythen.de und internetmyths.eu. --- PD Mag. Dr. Matthias C.

Authors: Kiyah J. Duffey, PhD; and Brenda M. Davy, PhD, RD. Virginia Tech researchers talk about how and why they developed the Healthy Beverage Index (HBI) and describe how this tool can be used to more accurately evaluate dietary consumption of all types of fluids. They found that higher HBI scores were associated with more favorable lipid profiles, decreased risk of hypertension; and, among men, better C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. (DOI: 2010.1016/j.jand.2015.05.005).

Good Posture & Back Support Vital, BackJoy Product Best says Jesse Cannone & Steve Hefferon: Now the subject is the vitally important one of back support and posture. The Healthy Back Institute, founded by Jesse Cannone, author of The 7-Day Back Pain Cure, carries a whole line of back support products that he is discussing in this segment with Steve Hefferon, Fitness Trainers, Certified Massage Therapist and adviser to HBI. By far their favorite one is BackJoy, they both swear by it and recommend to everyone they know. When you sit in front of a computer for eight hours, or more, everyday it is vital to have support and good posture. Jesse Cannone notes that it is easy to slump but takes work to site up straight and built good posture into your life. What is BackJoy? BackJoy is revolutionary, easy to use, and completely portable sitting device that prevents back pain from occurring when you sit, so you can finally sit comfortably, anywhere. What if my back hurts when I try sitting on BackJoy? Sometimes changing your sitting posture can cause temporary discomfort. Should you feel increased tightness when first using BackJoy, limit usage to15 minutes, then 30, and upward over a few days or weeks. With gradually increased usage will come strength and lasting relief. If there is any increased pain, stop using BackJoy. If BackJoy does not help relieve your back pain, consult a Medical Professional. See more at: http://www.losethebackpain.com/blog/2008/10/01/read-the-complete-faqs-for-the-back-joy/#sthash.ZJiqCJLS.dpuf When should I feel results? Many users experience immediate relief, and some require several weeks of regular use to feel the benefits of BackJoy. Your results will depend upon your underlying conditions and how often you use BackJoy. To get the quickest results and greatest benefits, use BackJoy according to directions as often as possible, everywhere you sit. What if I don’t feel anything when I sit on BackJoy? If you don’t feel any change when you sit on BackJoy, make sure you have closely followed the sitting instructions and your buttocks muscles are firmly cupped. The best way to feel the BackJoy difference is this: Sit on BackJoy for a period of time, then remove it from under you. Feel your gluteus muscles flattened under your body weight. Now put it back. Feel your pelvis floating in a cradle of muscle tissue.
