Täterin - Gewalt- und Sexualstraftaten von Frauen

by Sigrun Roßmanith

Frauen tun doch sowas nicht Frauen als Täterinnen von Gewalt- und Sexualdelikten - ein Tabu? Frauen werden nicht aus sich heraus gewalttätig - ein Irrtum! Es gibt sie, diese dunkle Seite der weiblichen Seele. Frauen verstümmeln, quälen, töten. Sie misshandeln ihre Kinder, auch sexuell, doch die Gesellschaft blendet das aus. Warum? Die Psychiaterin und Gerichtsgutachterin Sigrun Roßmanith greift dieses Thema auf, das seit Jahrzehnten ihr Spezialgebiet ist. Sie beleuchtet zunächst die geschichtlichen, kulturellen und wissenschaftlichen Hintergründe des Tabus „Frau als Täterin“. Ihre Analysen der Auslöser, Motive und des forensisch-psychiatrischen Kontextes zeigen die Realität femininer Destruktivität wertfrei, ohne zu richten oder zu beschönigen: Mütter, die töten, Vergewaltigerinnen, Stalkerinnen, Auftragskillerinnen und vieles mehr - keine Taten, die nicht auch von weiblicher Hand verübt werden. So nimmt sie den interessierten Leser auf Basis ihrer jahrzehntelangen Berufserfahrung, der kein Krimi das Wasser reichen kann, mit auf eine packende Reise in die Abgründe der weiblichen Natur.

A Tattoo on my Brain: A Neurologist's Personal Battle against Alzheimer's Disease

by Daniel Gibbs Teresa H. Barker

Dr Daniel Gibbs is one of 50 million people worldwide with an Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. Unlike most patients with Alzheimer's, however, Dr Gibbs worked as a neurologist for twenty-five years, caring for patients with the very disease now affecting him. Also unusual is that Dr Gibbs had begun to suspect he had Alzheimer's several years before any official diagnosis could be made. Forewarned by genetic testing showing he carried alleles that increased the risk of developing the disease, he noticed symptoms of mild cognitive impairment long before any tests would have alerted him. In this highly personal account, Dr Gibbs documents the effect his diagnosis has had on his life and explains his advocacy for improving early recognition of Alzheimer's. Weaving clinical knowledge from decades caring for dementia patients with his personal experience of the disease, this is an optimistic tale of one man's journey with early-stage Alzheimer's disease.

Tau Biology (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology #1184)

by Akihiko Takashima Benjamin Wolozin Luc Buee

This book presents essential studies and cutting-edge research results on tau, which is attracting increasing interest as a target for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Tau is well known as a microtubule-associated protein that is predominantly localized in the axons of neurons. In various forms of brain disease, neuronal loss occurs, with deposition of hyperphosphorylated tau in the remaining neurons. Important questions remain regarding the way in which tau forms hyperphosphorylated and fibrillar deposits in neurons, and whether tau aggregation represents the toxic pathway leading to neuronal death. With the help of new technologies, researchers are now solving these long-standing questions. In this book, readers will find the latest expert knowledge on all aspects of tau biology, including the structure and role of the tau molecule, tau localization and function, the pathology, drivers, and markers of tauopathies, tau aggregation, and treatments targeting tau. Tau Biology will be an invaluable source of information and fresh ideas for those involved in the development of more effective therapies and for all who seek a better understanding of the biology of the aging brain.

Taurine 8: Nutrition and Metabolism, Protective Role, and Role in Reproduction, Development, and Differentiation

by Abdeslem El Idrissi William J. L'Amoreaux

Taurine 8 represents the combined efforts of investigators on the roles of the amino acid taurine on human health and disease. The chapters covered in this book are directly derived from presentations of the contributors at the 18th International Taurine Meeting held in Marrakech, Morocco in April 2012. The purpose of this book is to disseminate current findings on taurine's contribution in several organ systems. This book covers the following topics: Taurine in Nutrition and Metabolism, the Protective Role of Taurine, and the Role of Taurine in Reproduction, Development, and Differentiation. Dr. Abdeslem El Idrissi, College of Staten Island and Dr. William L'Amoreaux, College of Staten Island, were co-chairs of the Organizing Committee for the meeting. Data presented at this meeting provided compelling evidence that taurine is not only cytoprotective in cardiomyocytes, but also is a potent GABA agonist, whereby it can facilitate vasodilation of conducting arteries. Taurine conjugates, such as taurine chloramine, may protect cells from oxidative stress via increased HO-1 expression. In adult rodents, taurine has a potent effect on plasma glucose levels, likely through the release of insulin in pancreatic beta cells. As a potential neurotransmitter, taurine is known to work via the GABAergic system, but current research presented at this meeting suggest that taurine may interact with glutamate and serotonin receptors as well. Data are also presented to demonstrate the protective roles of taurine on neurons in neuroblastoma. Perhaps the most important and exciting presentation is the role of taurine and alcohol: the combination may be lethal. Data are also presented at this meeting of the potential role taurine may have as an adjuvant treatment with cisplatin in chemotherapy.
