Abstract:
Background: Opioid addiction is a serious and growing global concern. Recently, herbal medicine has been popular for the treatment of opioid abusers worldwide. Unfortunately, the adulteration of herbal remedies with undeclared synthetic pharmaceuticals has been reported. In Iran, there are few reports on the adulteration of herbal remedies by synthetic pharmaceuticals sold as opioid addiction treatment. The aim of this study was to analyze herbal products used in opioid addiction treatment for the identification of synthetic pharmaceuticals as adulterants in the remedies.Methods: Forty commonly-used handmade herbal products for the treatment of opioid addiction were collected from herbal shops in Kermanshah (western area of Iran). After organoleptic examinations, the samples were prepared and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for detecting probable synthetic pharmaceutical adulterants.Results: The chromatographic analysis of the samples showed that 90% of the products had at least one undeclared pharmaceutical ingredient as an adulterant. The majority of the samples (n=19, 47.5%) had only one undeclared pharmaceutical. Diphenoxylate (n=24, 39.3%), tramadol (n=16, 26.2), methadone (n=8, 13.2%), and the combination of these drugs were reported as common adulterants. We detected the presence of buprenorphine and sildenafil as adulterating agents in the herbal formulations for the first time.Conclusion: According to the presence of undeclared synthetic pharmaceuticals in opioid addiction herbal products, as well as their threats to public health, awareness, in this case, is necessary.

Abstract:
The scale of alcoholism in contemporary human society is alarming. Nothing spreads faster than the habit of alcohol, drug addiction and taxonomy. It is a social problem for modern society. On the one hand, alcoholics and drug addicts are always ready to commit antisocial acts, alcohol and drug use being one of the major causes of crime, and on the other hand they cause degeneration, children of alcoholics and drug addicts often become criminals. or degenerate physically and intellectually. This sinister and erroneous understanding of alcohol consumption, which has caused unfortunate criminal acts and special harm to the individual, does not yield anything in favor of understanding what alcohol actually is. and untempered habits are also detrimental to the general well-being of society as they are fatal to the happiness of the individual. In proposing remedies, the Mani British Parliament’s House of Commons Special Committee on Intoxication alluded to the causes of drunkenness which it considered to be a “deeply rooted, ancient, widespread and strongly encouraged evil of negligence, ignorance, prejudice, customs and self-interest.” selfish”. It was believed that these remedies could fall into two broad categories: legislative remedies and moral remedies, and the law was to “frame, inhibit, and punish the malicious and contagious inclinations of malicious members of society that encourage drunkenness.”

Abstract:
Cough, also known as tussis, is a normal physiological response to any intrusion in the airway. However, this protective mechanism can turn into a nuisance if it becomes persistent, significantly impacting the social, physical, and psychological performance of a person. Standard antitussive agents like dextromethorphan (DXM), codeine, and gabapentin produce various side effects, and in some cases, cough relapse occurs as soon as drug doses are reduced. In search of better alternatives, this article delves into plant-based antitussive agents, studied in-vivo in various cough models. The cough models used in these studies include sulphur dioxide (SO2), citric acid, ammonia, acetic acid, and capsaicin-induced models. The plant-sourced agents, included in this review article, are not only effective against dry cough but also have better safety profiles and lower addiction potential as compared to the mainstream options. The review article cited the examples of Caesalpinia pulcherrima, arabinogalactan extracted from the roots of Withania somnifera, vitexin from Jatropha mutabilis, Napoleonaea vogelii, Rosa damascene and Hedera helix, which were not only potent antitussives but were also had better safety and performance profile than standard drugs like codeine. By investing in these phytochemicals, exhibiting promising cough-suppression abilities, better, safer, and cheaper antitussive agents can be produced. .

Abstract:
AbstractAs coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic continues, an increasing number of countries and territories are adopting restrictive measures based on physical (“social”) distancing, aimed at preventing human-to-human transmission and thereby limiting virus propagation. Nationwide lockdowns, encompassing mass quarantine under stay-at-home ordinances, have already been proven effective to contain the COVID-19 outbreak in some countries. Nevertheless, a prolonged homestay may also be associated with potential side effects, which may jeopardize people’s health and thus must be recognized and mitigated in a way without violating local ordinances. Some of the most important undesirable consequences of prolonged homestay such as physical inactivity, weight gain, behavioral addiction disorders, insufficient sunlight exposure and social isolation will be critically addressed in this article, which also aims to provide some tentative recommendations for the alleviation of side effects.

Abstract:
Herbal medicines and other complementary & alternative therapies are now a part of the mainstream healthcare system. Adults frequently utilizing herbal remedies to treat pain, which is one of the most prevalent ailments. Although herbal remedies are frequently not the most effective analgesics in the market, they can be very helpful for mild to moderate pain. Herbal bioactive substances may reduce the effectiveness of conventional treatments for pain. Life quality suffers, and excessive medical costs rise as a result of pain. Western medicine may have too many negative effects, such as addiction and tolerance. Alternative pain-management approaches may be offered by herbal medicines. Neuropathic pain is one of the many types of chronic pain that results from damage to the neurological system, including the peripheral nerves. There are few treatments for neuropathic pain now available. Recent studies have also shown the value of dietary bioactive compounds in the management of pain like Ginger, Curcumin, Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, soy isoflavones and Lycopene. The goal of this review paper is to determine the function of various bioactive and some traditional alternative therapies in the treatment of pain.

Abstract:
Asian Americans are the fastest-growing racial group in the United States. This article describes the development of a pain management assessment guide for Asian patients on hospice, their families, and their nurses. Thematic analysis was used to evaluate the applicability of research on pain, pain management, and barriers to pain management from primarily Asian countries to Asian patients on hospice in the United States. Thematic analysis of interviews with such patients concurs with research findings. Four themes emerged: enduring pain, preference for Chinese medicine remedies, fear of addiction, and concern about the side effects of pain medications. Interviews with experienced hospice nurses also aligned with these themes. Hospice nurses were asked to share their strategies for assessing and managing pain among their Asian hospice patients. Thematic analysis of their interviews revealed six strategies: focusing on treatment goals, involving family and caregivers, explaining the physiology of pain, explaining the progression of pain medications, addressing concerns about addiction, and managing the side effects of medications. The themes that emerged from patient and hospice nurse interviews were used to develop an evidence-based pain management assessment guide to support Asian patients on hospice, their family, and the nurses who care for them.

Abstract:
Deviance, in a sociological context, is understood as actions or behaviours that violate social norms, including formally-enacted rules, as well as informal violations of social norms. Deviant behaviour related to Internet was studied mainly as a technology enabling misuse and addiction. In this paper deviant behaviour is studied in the context of two phenomena the addiction to the on-line services and the: abuse in the work place. Both phenomena enact the working forms and cause loss of productivity. As organizations and companies try to minimize the productivity losses resulting from their employees’ Internet abuse in work place different approaches are used to solve the problem, some of them like e-surveillance and social control are in conflict with the social norms and the legislation order. The study presented in the paper explores the relationship between a person addicted to the Internet, and the factors that influence the abuse in the workplace. The study results discover whether these two phenomena are the result of the work environment like poor organizational structure in the company or bad human relationships. Another intention of the study was to find out whether the disciplinary measures applied to deter the Internet abuse have effects on the employees behaviour. The study results have shown that the occurrence of Internet abuse in workplace is not strongly related to the work conditions like the bad relationships with co-workers or managers, the missing actions for remuneration or recognition of the good work, and lack of paths for career advancement. The awareness of being e-surveyed by the employer, or being warned with personal messages about the misuse of Internet cause the time spent on the Internet for non-working purposes by the employee to decline. The study was carried out on an exhaustive sample inform an EU member state country where the legislative approach in employee e-surveying differ from other world regions. Managers were involved in this study to light up their everyday practice in deterring the Internet abuse in work place in view of the existing law for employee privacy protection in communication.

Abstract:
<i>Aristolochia didyma</i> (Yawar Panga) and other <i>Aristolochia</i> species are used as traditional herbal remedies with potent emetic properties. Scientific data for such Yawar Panga species, however, are scarce in the literature. The aim of this study was to describe the use of Yawar Panga within the context of the therapeutic community Takiwasi, in which the plant is used as part of the protocol for the rehabilitation of individuals with drug addiction. Fieldwork with experts in the administration of Yawar Panga at Takiwasi Center, as well as a retrospective qualitative analysis of experiences with this plant remedy in a residential inpatient population were performed. <i>In-silico</i> analysis of the main constituents of <i>A. didyma</i> as represented in the literature was completed in order to identify its putative pharmacological targets. The therapists interviewed consider Yawar Panga to be the most potent purga at Takiwasi and consider it especially useful in attenuating addiction withdrawal syndrome. From the patient’s perspective, this plant induces strong physical effects, and commonly precipitates effects in the oneiric and emotional dimensions. GABA B seems to be the receptor involved in the emesis induced by the phytochemicals contained in this plant species. Despite some relevant concerns related to the safety of the genus <i>Aristolochia</i> in modern western pharmacopoeias, some species, including <i>A. didyma</i>, are routinely used in the context of traditional herbal medicine in the Peruvian Amazon. Further phyto-pharmacological investigations would be helpful to elaborate this species’ medical utility, especially within the context of addiction treatment.

Abstract:
Abstract Drug addiction in America began to receive sustained public attention in the late 1860s, with publications promoting treatments, describing habitués’ abasement, and defending white, middle-class users. Publications, including habitués’ memoirs and doctors’ writings, made people who were addicted feel less isolated. Most writings focused on opiates, especially morphine, while chloral hydrate was briefly a drug of choice. Doctors sought effective treatments, and charlatans promoted quack remedies to “cure” addiction. Descriptions of users’ degradation intrigued readers while conveying how intense addiction could be. Some writers defended businessmen—“brain workers”—who became addicted. They asserted that their workdays, hectic due to rapid means of transportation and communication, drained their energy. Consequently, they took drugs to restore their vitality. These writers suggested that the workdays of “muscle workers” were unhurried and that, therefore, they had no need or excuse to use drugs. Such a view ignored other prevalent sources of anxiety.

Abstract:
DIGITAL ADDITCTION: PATHOLOGY, PSHYCHOLOGICAL AND SPIRITUAL TREATMENTS. The digital addiction is already acknowledged by the medical specialists as a mental disorder, because it involves a pathological use of the computer or of any other type of technology, characterized by the urgent need to engage in online activities to the obvious detriment of daily and real life (school, family, friendships, etc.). This type of attitude is also dealing to other behavioural disorders. Some psychologists are comparing the states (involving changes in brain maps) caused by digital addiction to those of "classic" (somatic) addictions. Thus, a similarity was identified between the abuse of psychotropic and hallucinogenic substances, which chemically alter the human brain, and the abuse of the virtual space, which psychologically affects the human being as a whole. This is clearly a phenomenon, specific to post-modernity, unprecedented in its scale in history.

Abstract:
Abstract The current drug policy of most states has a direct link to the early days of this century and earlier. It was at this time that the first steps were taken to bring drugs under (international) control. As recently as the last century in Britain drugs, including opium (laudanum) and morphine, were freely available both for enjoyment and as the basis for many common remedies. Britain also had a large economic interest in the opium trade, especially to China. When, to protect their people, the Chinese authorities tried to block this trade, it led to war in 1841. Following this, the ‘infant doping problem ‘, and opium use by workers, the Quakers led a campaign which persuaded many British people that addiction to opium was a sign of moral depravity and that the drug was evil: the first step towards acceptance of regulation. Legal control began in 18681 when certain substances, notably opium, were placed under pharma ceutical control, but in practice they remained easy to obtain and the basis of many remedies until after the tum of the century. The first real control of drugs came in the First World War when, in 1916, the Home Office, through the Army Council, forbade the supply of certain drugs to any member of the armed forces unless administered by a doctor. In the same year Regulation 40B under the Defence of the Realm Act 1914 made it an offence for those in the medical and allied professions to possess cocaine or opium.

Abstract:
Sociologists, planners, and activists are prone to treating society as if it were an enemy of wellbeing. This ‘disapproval addiction’ seriously inhibits our ability to understand and foster the social goods that make happiness possible. Instead of focusing mainly on social pathologies, we could instead cultivate more deliberately appreciative and aspirational approaches to social qualities. Appreciation and positive promotion of happiness and social goods could then become our core concern. This chapter proposes the deliberate and explicit adoption of a ‘happiness lens’ in social scholarship and planning so as to emphasise positivity, empathy, and integrative linkages between life domains through the life course. This lens is used to explore different kinds of claim to foster ‘social progress’: remedial; preventive; provisional; and ultimately genuine moral progress. It is proposed that this could make our social learning strategies more appreciative and our social plans more aspirational and uplifting. Conversely, and more provocatively, it is argued that we cannot claim to be ‘ethical’, or ‘progressive’, or even ‘politically engaged’ if we don’t make happiness an explicit and central concern in social research and social planning. Overall, these arguments are intended to highlight the ‘disruptive’ potential of a happiness lens.
