A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

Never allow your mind to dwell on your own misconduct: that is ruin. The conscience has morbid sensibilities; it must be employed but not indulged, like the imagination or the stomach.

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
Essay (1880-01/02?), “Reflections and Remarks on Human Life,” § 7.1 “Discipline of Conscience”

📋 Come along this Thursday 26 March to our next #CPCCGWebinar with Joseph Harrison from the University of #Salford.

Joseph will discuss a key finding in #migrant #healthresearch: although foreign‑born #populations often live longer, they may spend more of those extra years in poorer health. Using #Swedish #administrativedata, Joseph offers a clearer picture by relying on objective #patientrecords rather than self‑reported #health.

Pretty sure this is why Rutger Hauer's replicant android character Roy Batty gouged out the eyes of his creator in the original Blade Runner. Presumably, he would have justifiably done the same thing with the aforementioned Republican senator.

4.) Is there currently any evidence of efficacy of any of the proposed "#anti-aging drugs" and interventions in human aging? E.g. #rapamycin, #metformin #resveratrol but also #reprogramming, #rejuvenation, #caloric restriction and others? In other words, is there a shortcut to health and eternal life? Spoiler: you might not like the answer... Moreover, some of these might even have negative effects on other health-beneficial interventions, e.g. the potential dampening of exercise training adaptation by metformin, resveratrol or rapamycin.

5.) We discuss all of the known factors for which solid data and proof for an impact on human health, the aging process, #morbidity (risk for a disease), #mortality (risk of premature death) and life expectancy exist. The good news: only around 20% (or even as low as 10%) of our aging trajectory is determined by our genes – this means that to a large majority, we can influence this ourselves! Some can be done on the individual level, first and foremost by physical activity, but also #sleep, #nutrition, #stress, social interactions and more. Others will have to be addressed on the societal/political level, e.g. #socioeconomic disparities or access to quality (and affordable) health care. Lastly, there are factors such as anthropogenic #climatechange or #pollution (e.g. air pollution or #microplastics) that we have to solve on a global scale.

The study of 115,000 people found that those who ate large amounts of ultra-processed foods, especially processed meats, sugary breakfast foods and sugar and artificially sweetened beverages, were more likely to die prematurely.

Climate change explains much of this year’s jump in dengue cases and the long-term increase in the disease over the past two decades. There are ever fewer places where temperatures drop below 15°C in winter, the level at which mosquitoes tend to die out, so there are more virus-carrying insects in circulation, ready to surge, once temperatures rise in the spring.

WHO is deeply concerned that a full-scale military operation in Rafah could lead to a bloodbath. More than 1.2 million people are currently sheltering in the area, many unable to move anywhere else.
