  2. Death of a patient with mental illness at Shattuck Hospital raises allegations of ‘neglect’

    by Jenifer B. McKim, May 08, 2023, Updated August 07, 2023

    "A 60-year-old Black man committed to #LemuelShattuck Hospital’s #psychiatric ward died a 'painful, untimely death' due in part to the state’s failure to provide adequate health care, according to a report released Monday.

    "#HaywoodEarl, residing at the public hospital in Jamaica Plain, likely would have survived his bout with skin cancer if he’d received a timely diagnosis and appropriate medical treatment, the nonprofit Disability Law Center concluded in a 28-page report."

    [...]

    "Earl’s case is coming to light nearly two months after an investigation by the #GBH News Center for Investigative Reporting revealed a history of problems at the hospital, documented by patients, prisoners and former employees."

    Had a great time at the fleece in brizzle last night with my daughter. Saw #Conflict #dischargeband #gbh and a first for me, because they had become culture shock by the time I was old enough to go gigging, #Subhumans

    Conflict's new singer is *really* good. Dont know their name.

    Discharge were well on form 🤘

    GBH took a few songs to ease into it but from about 1/2 way into their set they were smashing it.

    Subhumans were amazing. Dick is a pro frontman.

  4. The last days of a shitty year, my best friend died of a brain tumour. Irreplaceable! Never again freely discuss God and this mad world. Among other things… We were young, pissed off, and we needed #hardcore #punk! #GBH - #CityBabyAttackedByRats! #music #80s youtu.be/-To8BnOdMDsb

  5. Environmental #pesticide exposure and the risk of irritable bowel syndrome: A case-control study

    Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology
    Volume 98, March 2023, 104076
    Lola Rueda-Ruzafa, Pablo Roman, Diana Cardona, Mar Requena, Carmen Ropero-Padilla, Raquel Alarcón

    Highlights

    • The risk of irritable bowel syndrome is higher in areas of high pesticide exposure.
    • Agronomic criteria were used to categorize pesticide exposure in the study population.
    • A total of 18,807 cases of irritable bowel syndrome were studied.
    • Environmental pesticide exposure is linked to irritable bowel syndrome.

    Abstract
    The agricultural model in southern #Spain is highly productive, mainly due to the intensive cultivation under plastic. Despite strict pesticide regulation, human exposure to pesticides in the environment has been connected to an increase in diseases such as #CeliacDisease. Certain pesticides have also been associated to the disruption of the intestinal #microbiota, which has been xtied to the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). A case-control study was conducted in Andalusia, south #Spain, to assess the prevalence and risk of IBS related to pesticide exposure. This research found a high prevalence of IBS in #Andalusia between 2000 and 2021 in areas with high pesticide exposure using agronomic criteria. Furthermore, the odds ratio for IBS was significantly higher in the population with high pesticide exposure. This study suggests that pesticides may be involved in IBS, whereas more research is needed to determine the role of pesticides in IBS symptomatology.

    Excerpts: "[In the locations of the study], the most commonly used insecticides are #organophosphates (primarily chlorpyrifos), N-methylcarbamates, macrocyclic lactones, #neonicotinoids, and pyrethroids. #Fungicides frequently used in plastic greenhouses include (di) thiocarbamates, conazoles, dicarboximide), anilino-pyrimidines, and copper salts. Bipyridyl (paraquat, diquat), organophosphonates (#glyphosate), chlorotriazine, and phenylurea are the herbicides most popularly used in the study areas (García-García et al., 2016)."

    Studies on Rats

    "A wide range of environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, insecticides, herbicides, and pesticides, can cause gut dysbiosis (Jin et al., 2015, Lin et al., 2020, Reygner et al., 2016). As suggested in our findings, there is also an increased risk of IBS precisely in pesticide-heavy areas and particularly in women. Previous research have found sexually dimorphic metabolic effect after pesticides exposures (Lukowicz et al., 2018). In this regard, #Roundup®, a glyphosate-based herbicide (#GBH) widely used in Andalusian crops, can increase the #Bacteroidetes group while decreasing the #Lactobacillaceae family in fecal samples of female rats (Lozano et al., 2018). Similarly, chronic glyphosate exposure reduces Corynebacterium, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Lactobacillus in mice following GBH administration (Aitbali et al., 2018). Exposure to fungicides such as imazalil can also alter the composition of the GM after acute and chronic administration. Specifically, in mice, imazalil increases the relative abundance of Firmicutes, Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria while decreasing the abundance of Bacteroidetes (Jin et al., 2016). Insecticides such as chlorpyrifos, diazinon and aldicarb also disrupt the GM of rats and mice (Aitbali et al., 2018, Gao et al., 2019, Gao et al., 2017, Joly et al., 2013). This modification has been associated with increased intestinal permeability and bacterial translocation in the case of chlorpyrifos (Condette et al., 2014). Diazinon inhibits several SCFA-producing genera in the Lachnospiraceae family, which operate as an energy substrate for colonic epithelial cells, altering energy harvesting in the intestinal epithelium (Gao et al., 2017)."

  9. 🌞 Hello #fediverse! This is #GBH News bringing you the world from #Boston. It's 58F at Logan Airport and visibility is 10mi.

    The government is shut down. Trump has vowed to halt funding to blue states and "Democrat agencies."

    The great naturalist and advocate for conservation Jane Goodall has died. She was 91.

    The Trump administration wants MIT, other universities to sign "compact" in exchange for funding.

  10. ⚠️ Flash Info ⚠️

    L'UE s'intéresse (enfin) aux magouilles de GBH en Outre-mer

    #PostColonialisme #GBH #VieChere

    GBH fait la loi sur les prix en Outre-mer, et ça commence à sentir le roussi. Cinq eurodéputés écologistes ont saisi la Commission européenne pour dénoncer son monopole et ses tarifs qui étranglent les habitants. Bruxelles va-t-elle se bouger le train et mettre fin au racket, ou continuer de jouer les aveugles pendant que les ultramarins casquent ?

  12. Sketch for my GHB piece for the Makara/Purple edition of the Bloodlines zine.
    It was interesting trying to make him look Absolutely Massive while not straying into what I consider to be Zahaak or Maryam territory. And I think the end result, which is a mixture of jacked and twiggy, worked quite well in the context of what fanon thinks a Makara should look like, too.
