Abstract (sommario):
The widespread diffusion of immersive virtual environments (VE) is threatened by persistent reports that some users experience simulation sickness, a form of motion sickness that accompanies extended use of the medium. Experience with the problem of simulation sickness is most extensive in the military where the illness has accompanied the use of various simulators since the 1950s. This article considers the obstacles presented by simulation sickness to the diffusion of VE systems, its physiological and technological causes, and, finally, the remedies that have been suggested to fix the problems. This issue is also considered in light of previous reports of purported illnesses that accompanied the diffusion of other communication technologies.

Abstract (sommario):
Living in the time of a pandemic, where illness has become a prominent concern, it might do well to consider Nietzsche’s thinking on sickness and health, which is far from a clear-cut delineation and calls for careful and circumspect analysis. I begin by distinguishing three types of sickness and health: physical, psychological, and cultural, where health in each type can initially be understood as flourishing unimpaired by sickness. Physical illness involves some infirmity of the body, such as cancer or viral infection. Psychological illness is some malady of the mind, such as depression. Cultural illness is the kind of thing emphasized by Nietzsche and involves a worldview that is symptomatic of life denial and nihilism when measured against natural life instincts, energies, and needs—for instance, the story Nietzsche tells about slave morality and its production of the ascetic ideal that has contaminated Western thought.

Abstract (sommario):
ObjectivesWe describe the development and initial validation of a new scale for measuring non-illness factors that are important in predicting occupational outcomes, called the NIPSA (non-illness predictors of sickness absence) scale.MethodsForty-two questions were developed which covered a broad range of potential non-illness-related risk factors for sickness absence. 682 participants in the South East London Community Health study answered these questions and a range of questions regarding both short-term and long-term sickness absence. Factor analysis was conducted prior to examining the links between each identified factor and sickness absence outcomes.ResultsExploratory factor analysis using the oblique rotation method suggested the questionnaire should contain 26 questions and extracted four factors with eigenvalues greater than 1: perception of psychosocial work environment (factor 1), perceived vulnerability (factor 2), rest-focused attitude towards recovery (factor 3) and attitudes towards work (factor 4). Three of these factors (factors 1, 2 and 3) showed significant associations with long-term sickness absence measures (p<0.05), meaning a final questionnaire that included 20 questions with three subscales.ConclusionsThe NIPSA is a new tool that will hopefully allow clinicians to quickly assess for the presence of non-illness factors that may be important in predicting occupational outcomes and tailor treatments and interventions to address the barriers identified. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a scale focused on transdiagnostic, non-illness-related predictors of sickness absence has been developed.

Abstract (sommario):
An ecological approach to social perception states that impressions of faces have functional value in that they guide adaptive behavior ensuring people's survival. For example, people may avoid others whose faces appear sick to avoid an illness representing a survival threat. We broadened the ecological approach in the current work by examining whether merely thinking about what illnesses on faces look like (i.e., how sickness on faces is represented) holds functional value in guiding behavior to ensure survival. Using an example of a real illness threat as proof of concept, we showed that people self-reported performing more adaptive health behaviors in response to COVID-19 if they had sicker representations of COVID-19 on faces (Experiment 1a). These sicker representations of COVID-19 on faces explained, in part, a positive relation between perceptions of COVID-19 as threatening and people's self-reported adaptive health behaviors. We then replicated these patterns when experimentally manipulating illness threat (Experiment 1b). We found that people expected more adaptive health behaviors and had sicker representations of illness on faces in response to illness threats that were more relative to less threatening. These findings suggest that mentally representing sickness on faces is enough to guide people's behaviors in response to illness threats.

Abstract (sommario):
Studies of prolonged separation from the attachment figure that were conducted with infant monkeys during the middle of the 20th century identified a passive behavioral response, termed “despair,” that appeared to model human depressive illness. Studies in guinea pigs, which exhibit filial attachment that resembles attachment in monkeys, have described a similar passive response to briefer periods of maternal separation. Recent evidence indicates that elements of the immune system mediate the passive behavioral response of guinea pigs. These findings accord well with current ideas that immune responses contribute to depressive illness, suggest new hypotheses about how maternal separation might promote depression, and give us a rodent model in which such hypotheses might be tested.

Abstract (sommario):
As of late, skin diseases are expanded in people. Skin illnesses are brought about by microscopic organisms or because of contaminations. A portion of the skin illnesses resemble ring worm, yeast disease, sensitivities and so on are increments and spread over skin step by step. So this sort of maladies ought to be distinguished in its previous stage to abstain from spreading. It tends to be distinguished utilizing a few variables like clinical parameters which are considered for recognizing the infection. The conceivable skin sicknesses in various ages are dermatitis in age 0–5 years, moles influences in 6–11 years age, and skin inflammation vulgaris in 12–16 years age. Dermatomyositis is a sort of skin illness that influences youngsters at age of 5–15 and grown-up at 40–60 age. Right now, objective is to give a device to help experts and buyers in finding and picking sickness. To accomplish this objective, we build up a methodology that permits a client to inquiry for disease that fulfil a lot of conditions dependent on sickness properties, for example, infection signs.

Abstract (sommario):
At any point 1–5 days following ascent to altitudes ≥2500 m, individuals are at risk of developing one of three forms of acute altitude illness: acute mountain sickness, a syndrome of nonspecific symptoms including headache, lassitude, dizziness and nausea; high-altitude cerebral oedema, a potentially fatal illness characterised by ataxia, decreased consciousness and characteristic changes on magnetic resonance imaging; and high-altitude pulmonary oedema, a noncardiogenic form of pulmonary oedema resulting from excessive hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction which can be fatal if not recognised and treated promptly. This review provides detailed information about each of these important clinical entities. After reviewing the clinical features, epidemiology and current understanding of the pathophysiology of each disorder, we describe the current pharmacological and nonpharmacological approaches to the prevention and treatment of these diseases.

Abstract (sommario):
Telework is widely predicted to increase and to bring a range of social advantages - spatiotemporal flexibility and autonomy, and disadvantages - labour exploitation and isolation. Benefits are generally expected to be gained by professional, predominantly male workers, not female clerks.

Forty-four teleworkers were interviewed in depth and most completed five questionnaires over a period of six months. Analysis of data was presented for participant validation. The research, therefore, offers an account of the lived experience of telework and teleworker's own explanations of health. The findings were as follows. Regardless of occupational status or time worked at home, teleworkers worked in marginalised space at home to cause minimal disruption to family life. Telework encouraged very long hours and the recalculation of time. The negotiation of absence and presence was central to the development of an acceptable work identity. Teleworkers balanced these costs against the privilege of home-based work. Participants were found to have a high level of chronic illness, and to frequently report instances of illness. Yet most believed they felt better, although not healthier, since working at home. The results were interpreted using Alonzo's (1979) model of containment, suggesting that reported reductions in sickness absence cannot necessarily be interpreted as improvements in health. The research showed that teleworkers reporting illness took fewer days free of work than those reporting to be well, and that telework changed health beliefs and behaviours in ways not fully appreciated in the literature to date.

Abstract (sommario):
Introduction: Nitric oxide (NO) is an integral molecule implicated in the control of vascular function. It has been suggested that vascular dysfunction may lead to the development of acute mountain sickness (AMS), high-altitude cerebral oedema (HACE) and high-altitude pulmonary oedema (HAPE), though data to date remains scarce. Therefore, there is a clear need for further work to address the role of NO in the pathogenesis of high-altitude illness. Aims: There were two primary aims of the current work: (1) To examine whether hypoxia mediated changes in systemic NO metabolism are related to the development of AMS and sub-clinical pulmonary oedema and (2) to examine whether hypoxia mediated changes in the trans-cerebral exchange kinetics of NO metabolites are related to the development of AMS and headache. Hypothesis: We hypothesise that hypoxia will be associated with an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, resulting in a decrease in vascular NO bioavailability (O2•- + NO → ONOO•-, k = 109 M.s-1). The reduction in NO will lead to vascular dysfunction and impaired oxygen (O2) delivery. Subsequent hypoxaemia will result in pulmonary vascular vasoconstriction and the development of sub-clinical pulmonary oedema within and mild brain swelling. Symptoms and reductions in NO bioavailability will be more pronounced in those who develop AMS since they are typically more hypoxaemic. Alternatively, a hypoxia mediated increase in NO, during vasodilatation, specifically across the cerebral circulation, may activate the trigminovascular system resulting in headache and by consequence, AMS. Methods: Study 1 – AMS symptoms, systemic venous NO concentration and nasal potential difference (NPD), used as a surrogate biomarker of extravascular lung oedema, were quantified in normoxia, after a 6hr passive exposure to 12% oxygen (O2) and immediately following a hypoxic maximal exercise challenge (≈6.5 hrs). Final measurements were 2 obtained two hours into (hypoxic) recovery. Study 2 – AMS, radial arterial and internal jugular venous NO metabolite concentrations and global cerebral blood flow (CBF), using the Kety-Schmidt technique, were assessed in normoxia and after a 9hr passive exposure to 12.9% O2. AMS was diagnosed if subjects presented with a combined Lake Louise score of ≥5 points and an Environmental Symptoms Questionnaire – Cerebral score of ≥0.7 points. Results: Hypoxia was associated with a reduction in total plasma NO, primarily due to a reduction in nitrate (NO3•) and a compensatory increase in red blood cell (RBC)-bound NO(P < 0.05 vs. normoxia) in both studies. Study 1 – Exercise reduced plasma nitrite (NO2•) (P< 0.05 vs. normoxia) whereas RBC-bound NO did not change. NO was not different in those who developed AMS (AMS+) compared to those who remained comparatively more healthy (AMS-) (P < 0.05). NPD was not affected by hypoxia or exercise and was not different between AMS+ and AMS- (P > 0.05). Study 2 – Hypoxia decreased arterial concentration of total plasma NO due primarily to a reduction in NO2•- and nitrate (NO3•-). Hypoxia did not alter the cerebral metabolism of RSNO, whereas the formation of RBC-bound NO increased. Discussion: These findings suggest that alterations in systemic or trans-cerebral NO metabolism are not implicated in the pathophysiology of AMS or sub-clinical pulmonary oedema. However, hypoxia was associated with an overall reduction in the total NO pool (NOx), whereas, selected alterations in more vasoactive NO metabolites were observed. Reductions in the partial pressure of O2 (pO2) were thought to be a key regulator in these changes. Overall net increases in RBC NO and corresponding reductions in plasma NO2• in the face of no alterations in NOx indicates that rather than being simply consumed, NO is reapportioned to other NO metabolites and this may be implicated in the pathophysiology of AMS.

Abstract (sommario):
This thesis investigates the evolving nature of the illness experience of HIV-positive women in Chennai as they redefine their concepts of self, community and health in light of their interactions with a local HIV clinic. It is through their ongoing relationships with the other patients and staff members within the Clinic that this thesis examines the state of liminality experienced by participants while they move through the different stages of their illness experience. In particular, their interactions and opinions at each stage of coming to terms with their diagnosis are discussed with regards to the concept of personal agency and the relationship this has to overall health and wellbeing. The thesis has three main areas of concern. The first explores the role that culturally-based stigmas and traditional schemas of women’s positions within the family have in creating specific health-related vulnerabilities among these women. The second area of concern attends to the role of the family and the ability of HIV/AIDS diagnosis to alter the expectations of the sick role among individuals and family members. The experiences of stigma and fear discussed by participants highlight the redefining of what constitutes health and point to a definition of community that is expanded to include Clinic staff and other HIV-positive individuals while maintaining relationships with family and friends wherein HIV status is concealed and denied. The third area of concern continues this theme by exploring the actions of the Clinic staff and their ability to enter this expanded community definition by taking on roles traditionally held by family members while battling against the negative experiences patients have had at other medical facilities. Ultimately, this thesis details the intimate relationships experienced by these individuals and the Clinic staff at the intersection of traditional social values and the modern condition of HIV/AIDS.

Sammanfattning Kandidatuppsats, fördjupning i sociologi  Författare: Rojin Coskun & Izabella Kiraly Handledare: Per Dannefjord Examinator: Sven Hort Titel: Psykisk ohälsa i arbetslivet- Varför är exempelvis undersköterskor ofta sjukskrivna på grund av psykisk ohälsa Nyckelord: Psykisk ohälsa, sjukskrivning, sociala relationer, undersköterska Bakgrund: Statistiken över sjukfrånvarons utveckling i Sverige pekar på att allt fler individer drabbas av försämrat hälsotillstånd, med sjukskrivningar som följd. Sjukskrivningar som beror på någon form av psykisk ohälsa ökar allra mest. Att olika delar av arbetsmiljön kan påverka människors psykiska hälsa negativt, är många forskare eniga om, och arbetsmiljöfaktorers påverkan på den psykiska ohälsan undersöks än i dag.  I vår uppsats valde vi att inte fokusera på arbetsmiljöfaktorer, utan istället leta efter andra faktorer som kan förklara skillnaderna i psykisk ohälsa mellan olika yrkesgrupper. Syfte och frågeställning: I denna uppsats vill vi förklara psykisk ohälsa i arbetslivet. Med utgångspunkt att undersköterskor är den största yrkesgruppen i Sverige som har höga sjukfall och väldigt många av dem beror på psykisk ohälsa, blir vår problemformulering följande: -          Varför är undersköterskor så oerhört drabbade av psykisk ohälsa? Delfrågor som arbetas med under uppsatsens gång är: -          Hur ser sjukskrivningarna ut för samtliga yrkesgrupper vad gäller psykisk ohälsa? -          Vilka skillnader finns det mellan yrkesgrupper med hög respektive låg psykisk ohälsa? Metod: Studien är baserat på sekundärundersökning i form av offentlig statistik. Försäkringskassans statistiska underlag över sjukskrivningar användes och samtliga yrkesgrupper delades in efter hög respektive låg psykisk ohälsa. Resultat: Enligt vår mening, är det aspekter av arbetsinnehållet, och inte yrkesbenämningen som behöver undersökas för att kunna förklara varför vissa yrkesgrupper är mer benägna för sjukskrivningar som beror på psykisk ohälsa. Att endast utgå ifrån yrkestitel vid redovisning av sjukskrivningsstatistik, är enligt oss felaktigt därför att skillnader i arbetsuppgifterna finns även mellan samma yrkesgrupper med olika inriktningar.

Abstract (sommario):
“Dance and forget your sickness” - An ethnological study of the interaction between patients and the medical conceptual world, and the role of music in a healing process. This study is based on interviews with four people. It describes their experiences with the health care system and the role of music in their lives. What these people have in common is that their illnesses are not verifiable from a normal medical perspective. The overall purpose is to describe this interaction with medical care and discuss what role music might have in the mitigation of the perceived illness. The patient-healthcare interaction is analysed from a theoretical discourse perspective. The analysis reveals some of the mechanisms in the medical establishment’s discourse that reinforce its own conclusions by simplifying what is actually quite complex; the inner world of the patient. Considering the powerful position medical science has taken in our modern world it is relevant for medicine to be able to respond to and manage health problems arising in complex personal processes, or what can be described as existential illness. This study describes how the current healthcare establishment has come to focus unilaterally on physical health, supplanting the existential dimension of health that it cannot respond to. The results of this study showed that all people experienced that (current established) healthcare alone could not cure their illness in a satisfactory manner. The study also showed that music played a major role in the relief of specific symptoms. Music also helped patients find meaning, despite their illness, as part of a greater cultural and social world.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractIn this chapter Taylor-Pirie examines how one particular tropical disease—sleeping sickness—was conceptualised as a form of tropical violence across a range of medical and nonmedical genres. Using the repetition of an African curse ‘owa na ntolo’ as an access point, she reveals how sensational literary depictions of sleeping sickness circulated between newspaper reports and clinical case studies, augmenting debates about racial susceptibility. Depictions of African sleeping sickness, she argues, were filtered through an emotional register that produced new aetiologies of race and illness visible in Henry Seton Merriman’s hugely popular imperial romance novel With Edged Tools (1894), as well as in medical essays and tropical travel guides. The melodramatic mode and a flexible approach to representations of disease transmission produced Africa as a place productive of illness and immorality in equal measure. Ultimately, she demonstrates how Britain’s encounters with tropical disease—fictional and nonfictional—were used to map not only the epidemiological but also the sociocultural topographies of empire.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractThis chapter examines the process of medicalization as it relates to both social policies implemented during the Nazi regime and contemporary social policies. Medicalization is the process of framing a social problem as a medical condition, thereby identifying the source of the problem as one of individual accountability and emphasizes the need to treat or cure the individual. When applied to social policies, this framework perpetuates dividing practices that create categories of social health and social sickness and allow for the control of individuals and groups of individuals. Nazi social policies were grounded in their racial hygiene agenda, which meant medicalizing individuals who participated in so-called deviant behavior, who contributed, or failed to contribute, to the nation’s welfare, and who were considered a threat to the citizenry and the health of the nation. This same medicalization of social policies is evident today in countries’ approaches to regulating sexual and criminal behavior, limiting government assistance, and restricting borders.

With the shift towards a molecular understanding and classification of cancer the relationship between cancer as a disease and cancer as an illness and sickness gradually dissolve. This chapter explore these developments by examining the scientific and clinical challenges that are emerging in the attempt to understand and manage FLT3 mutated acute myeloid leukaemia.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractRehabilitation services are more closely and directly linked to maintaining and regaining positive health lost by illness and by pathogenic side effects of health care than the provision of cure or care. There even exists some professional understanding that rehabilitation should start with the beginning of treatment and be integrated into treatment processes and not just follow after discharge of patients. But even the WHO definition of rehabilitation has a pathogenic bias by focusing on disabilities of people or on disabled people and not addressing their abilities explicitly. Therefore, salutogenesis still has to offer something and has an added value to rehabilitation as a supportive intervention for recovery processes.Within the wider field of rehabilitation, this chapter has a specific focus on vocational work-oriented rehabilitation, which is a combination of medical, psychological, social, and occupational activities with the goal of enabling a timely return to work after sickness absence. For that the chapter highlights how salutogenesis can be related to the design and implementation of vocational rehabilitative services. A summary of descriptive and intervention research is given on the impact of the sense of coherence (SOC) as a moderator on processes and outcomes of rehabilitation programs and on the influence of these programs on the development of the SOC. Recommendations for further research with more complex longitudinal designs are given.

Abstract (sommario):
Introduction: While reaching ever new heights mankind met an altitude illness. A critical stage of altitude sickness, manifesting by loss of consciousness, convulsions, apnea and subsequent death, develops at above 7 km altitudes. Pilots, alpinists and extreme sportsmen are the main risk group. Acute oxygen starvation of body while significant hypobaric hypoxia is the main mechanism of altitude illness. It is proposed to reduce the level of metabolism (artificial hypobiosis) to prevent the negative impact of acute hypobaric hypoxia. The study goal to assess the efficiency of organism negative impact prevention with metabolic rate reduction while acute hypobaric hypoxia. Materials and methods: Syrian hamsters, 90–110 g weight were used in the study. 2 groups, 8 animals in each. Experimental group of animals had intramuscular injections of 1 ml 0.9% NaCl containing 1 g/kg Methyldop (CAS Number 555-30-6) in 0.3 ml/kg dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) suspension. Control group of animals had 1 ml 0.9% NaCl containing 0.3 ml/kg DMSO. 3 hours later animals had been placed in hypobaric chamber. 20 kPa under pressure was created, speed – 1.25 kPa/s. Continuous chamber air flow was made to avoid CO2 accumulation. Continuous visual observation carried out. Consciousness, posture maintenance time, convulsive seizures, agonal breathing, and apnea were registered. Results: Control group: since start of exposure the average animal posture maintenance time was 3 s (standard error (SE) – 4 s). First convulsion time – 20 s (SE – 8 s), second convulsion – 56 s (SE – 14 s), agonal breath type start (6 animals) – 52 s (SE – 20 s), apnea – 1 min 54 s (SE – 1 min 8 s). It was consciousness absence in all animal. Experimental group: none of registered parameters were observed. All animals had consciousness, actively restored their position, while chamber was tilted. The exposure lasted for 20 minutes. Conclusions: Metabolic rate reduction has high efficiency for organism negative impact prevention while acute hypobaric hypoxia.

Abstract (sommario):
We used detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), which was originally developed by Peng et al. (1995) to check power-law characteristics, to study the heartbeats of various subjects. Our purpose was to determine whether DFA is a useful method for the evaluation of a subject’s quality of recovery from cardiovascular-related illness and transition to a normal healthy state. Here, we report on subjects who underwent rehabilitation thermal therapy, subjects who developed premature ventricular contractions, and other subjects, including healthy subjects. The perceived level of wellness varies among subjects because the physiology of no 2 individuals is identical. However, several case studies have shown how wellness of subjects can be evaluated using heartbeat recordings. We conclude that DFA is a new, useful numerical method for quantifying the degree of wellness and the transition from sickness to wellness.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract. Health goes beyond the mere absence of illness. It’s arguably a state that encompasses a whole spectrum of physical, social, and mental well-being. It involves not only curing sickness but also promoting healthy lifestyles, behaviors, and environments that enable individuals to thrive. Health interventions can be formalized through medicine, but they can also take on a broader spectrum of approaches, including prevention, early detection, and management of diseases. By acknowledging this broader vision of health, we can see that it influences various aspects of our lives, including our work, education, relationships, food, clothes, and recreational activities. It also impacts our communities and cultures, affecting social norms, policies, and practices that shape our health outcomes. Therefore, health is not just an individual concern but also a collective one. Furthermore, the integration of health into technological practices can have a significant impact on our well-being. It can facilitate access to health information, resources, and services, enable remote monitoring and diagnosis, and enhance communication and social support networks.

Abstract (sommario):
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the oldest fields of computer science used in building structures that look like human beings in terms of thinking, learning, solving problems, and decision making (Jovanovic et al., 2021). AI technologies and techniques have been in application in various aspects to aid in solving problems and performing tasks more reliably, efficiently, and effectively than what would happen without their use. These technologies have also been reshaping the health sector's field, particularly digital tools and medical robotics (Dantas & Nogaroli, 2021). The new reality has been feasible since there has been exponential growth in the patient health data collected globally. The different technological approaches are revolutionizing medical sciences into dataintensive sciences (Dantas & Nogaroli, 2021). Notably, with digitizing medical records supported the increasing cloud storage, the health sector created a vast and potentially immeasurable volume of biomedical data necessary for implementing robotics and AI. Despite the notable use of AI in healthcare sectors such as dermatology and radiology, its use in psychological healthcare has neem models. Considering the increased mortality and morbidity levels among patients with psychiatric illnesses and the debilitating shortage of psychological healthcare workers, there is a vital requirement for AI and robotics to help in identifying high-risk persons and providing measures that avert and treat mental disorders (Lee et al., 2021). This discussion is focused on understanding how AI and robotics could be employed in improving mental health in the human community. The continued success of this technology in other healthcare fields demonstrates that it could also be used in redefining mental sicknesses objectively, identifying them at a prodromal phase, personalizing the treatments, and empowering patients in their care programs.
