Harmful algal blooms and toxin-producing micro-organisms create a heterogeneous set of human health hazards that cannot be reduced to a single exposure pathway or clinical syndrome. Marine dinoflagellates and diatoms generate phycotoxins that accumulate in shellfish and finfish or become aerosolised at the sea surface, while toxin-producing freshwater cyanobacteria contaminate drinking and recreational waters and can also enter food webs. This critical narrative review evaluates the strength of evidence linking the …

Abstract Stereotypes about mental illness (MI) are not necessarily context‐free or stably localized within the stereotype content model (SCM). Studies using different comparison sets are expected to produce different relationships between the two SCM dimensions, meaning that placements derived from visual maps, cluster solutions or quadrant descriptions should not be interpreted as fixed properties of social categories. Drawing on a PRISMA‐guided meta‐analysis, we synthesize SCM ratings of depression and schizophre …
Psychoactives
The global drug landscape is undergoing its most profound transformation since the emergence of the modern illicit drug market during the twentieth century. For decades, drug policies, analytical toxicology, forensic science, and public health responses have been developed around a relatively limited number of well-characterized substances, including heroin, cocaine, cannabis, and amphetamines such as 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA). Although new psychoactive substances (NPS) have received increasing atten …

Athens Journal of Psychology
Building on Freud’s analogy between paranoid delusions and philosophical systems (Systembildungen), this article establishes a clinical-genealogical framework to analyze contemporary value production and subjective formation. Drawing on Nietzsche’s drive-dynamic psychology, recent cognitive-evolutionary readings of his Trieb theory, and Lacan’s formalization of the Capitalist Discourse, it is argued that this discourse can be productively analyzed as functioning as an axiologically closed, secular religion. By anch …
