5 proven life strategies to win in relationships

International Perspectives on Aging

Shadows of Time: Unveiling the Intersection of Crime, Victims, and Aging is a comprehensive exploration of the complex relationship between crime, victims, and the aging population. Whilst older people are visible as an aging population, they are invisible as a victim population or even more controversially, as an offending population.This book delves into the challenges, vulnerabilities, and unique obstacles faced by older adults who become victims of crime and offenders of crime across cultures. It is one of a tiny handful of books that explores the relationship of aging, victimization and criminality. To make sense of such issues, there will be a critical exploration of the links between theory, policy and practice.The primary purpose of this book is to shed light on the often-overlooked issue of elderly victimization and offending and to raise awareness about its impact.

Practical Issues in Geriatrics

This book explores the transdisciplinary approach to general surgery for the frail patient, promoting the use of a geriatric model of care in general surgical settings and thus proposing a "gerosurgery" approach in frail persons beyond chronological age.

Aging, frailty, and surgical needs are increasing dramatically worldwide while surgeons are daily facing with the trouble of the trade-off between short-term outcomes and efficacy of surgery in older persons. However, recent studies have clearly shown that age itself is not a prognostic risk factor for complications after elective surgery in older patients, whereas cognitive or functional frailty is. Neither a referring physician nor an assessing surgeon should deny patients surgery purely based on chronological age. Instead, decisions should be based on a CGA (comprehensive geriatric assessment) with a precise picture of the patient considering the cognitive, functional, nutritional, socioeconomic, and affective status. Recent studies examining the use of preparative CGA in surgical patients showed encouraging results on postoperative outcomes in old and/or frail patients. The most compelling current evidence comes from the orthopaedic community, which has embraced the idea of multidisciplinary team care. Preoperative evaluation, postoperative care, pain control, nutritional support, delirium prevention, mobilization, and rehabilitation are necessary also in general surgery. An expert multidisciplinary team, including geriatricians, anaesthesiologists, specialist nurses, physiotherapists, and nutritionists should mandatorily support surgeons.

With this book, the reader will have an exhaustive overview and will gain essential, practical knowledge on how best to manage the surgical and frail patient and how to develop clinical systems that do so reliably.

Advances in Biochemistry in Health and Disease

Molecular hydrogen (H2) has emerged as a promising therapeutic and preventive medical gas. Hydrogen gas has garnered significant attention in recent years due to its remarkable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. H2 exhibits exceptional pharmacokinetics, swiftly traversing cellular biomembranes to access subcellular organelles indirectly regulating hormones and cytokines through various signal transduction pathways. H2 has the potential to address a wide range of issues, including clinical medical treatment in the areas of healthcare: myocardial ischemia, heart failure, cardiac arrest, metabolic syndrome, advanced-stage cancer, inflammatory diseases, Alzheimer's dementia, aging-related disorders, sports activities, and even beauty, agriculture, etc.Selected world-known authors in the field provide readers with a comprehensive overview of molecular hydrogen's remarkable effects and its physical, chemical, and therapeutic properties and potential in biomedical applications.&nbsp;This contributed volume fills the current gap in information and is intended for everyone who wants to be better informed about the wide possibilities of using molecular hydrogen. However, it is mainly intended for use by medical students, physiologists, pharmacologists, physicians, and other healthcare personnel who can use molecular hydrogen to improve the health of everyone who needs it.

Baudrillard and Aging seeks to delve into the intricate relationship between age and society, drawing on the influential theories of French philosopher Jean Baudrillard. This book explores how aging and the aging process are shaped by the hyperreal world we inhabit, emphasizing the paradoxical amplification of youth and the loss of authenticity in contemporary society. By analyzing Baudrillard's theories in the context of aging, this book aims to provide a fresh perspective on the challenges and paradoxes faced by individuals as they grow older.In our modern society, aging is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that is often met with anxiety and resistance. Jean Baudrillard's original theories on simulation, hyperreality, and the collapse of meaning offer unique insights into how the aging process has been transformed and mediated within a culture that relentlessly fetishizes youthfulness.This book will examine how the hyperreal simulacra of aging are constructed, perpetuated, and imposed upon individuals as they age. It will also explore the consequences of this simulated lifecourse, including the erasure of authentic experiences of aging and the subsequent alienation and dissatisfaction experienced by older individuals.

Progress in Inflammation Research

The circadian clock is a complex cellular mechanism that controls numerous key physiological processes and maintains cellular, tissue, and systemic homeostasis. Disruption of the clock system influences the immune response and brain functions. Immune activation is closely linked with inflammation, neurodegeneration, aging, and other peripheral and central nervous system-related abnormalities. There is increasing evidence that cellular inflammation affects sleep and circadian rhythms and vice-versa. This book offers a structured overview that focuses on the multi-angle interaction of circadian rhythms, sleep, and inflammatory response in normal or pathological conditions.

The demographic change presents new, primarily financial challenges for the state, politics, and the economy (level of power and domination relations). Aging (doing age) should be understood as a social construct that primarily offers self-empowerment opportunities for those who can follow the trend of age activation through sports/fitness due to higher educational qualifications and greater financial resources, and who maintain a healthy lifestyle.The goal of this project was to analyze fitness studio advertising from an intersectional and inequality-reflective perspective based on the structural categories of body/aging, gender, and class. It aimed to interview trainers with a focus on older active individuals (representation level) and to take a differentiated look at the self-techniques of older women active in fitness studios gathered through a qualitative interview study (subject level). On one hand, working on the body can strengthen one's own social positioning; on the other hand, devaluing others who do not follow the trend can give rise to a new form of 'lookism.'&nbsp;The AuthorDr. Gabriele Sobiech is a Professor of Sport and Body Sociology as well as Gender Studies at the University of Education Freiburg in Breisgau.&nbsp;The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

„Forever Young?“

This book on presidential age is not about Alzheimer's Disease and associated pathologies of the aging brain. It is instead about the normally aging brain. Brains don’t simply develop and maintain their functionality into older adulthood unless otherwise impaired by neurocognitive disease. Were this the case, this book might be about leveraging prodromal biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases to screen prospective presidential candidates. Instead, the normal decline age brings to all human brains begs a different type of book—and a broader and more blanketed warning about electing increasingly older presidents.

Amy Wilson, co-host of the award-winning podcast What Fresh Hell, takes a funny and insightful look at how women are conditioned to be "happy to help"-and what happens when things don't go that way.
Award-winning podcast host Amy Wilson has always been an ultimate helper. As a big sister, Girl Scout, personal assistant, sitcom sidekick, and, finally, mother of three, Amy believed it was her destiny to be a people pleaser. She learned to put others first and to look like she had everything under control, even when she very much did not.
Along the way, Amy started to wonder why doing it all had been her job. Still, when she tried to hand over some of her to-dos, no one was interested in taking them. And when she asked for help, in return, she got advice: have a sense of humor, quit nagging, and stop trying to be perfect.
Hilariously relatable, Happy to Help explores how you can be the one everyone else depends on and still be struggling-how you can be "happy to help," even when, for your own sake, you shouldn't.
