Azerbaijan cancels Russian events over ‘extrajudicial killings’ of 2 citizens in Russia’s Yekaterinburg

#Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry said on June 28 that Ziyaddin and Huseyn Safarov died during a #raid carried out by #Russian #authorities. Azerbaijan called the #killings “ethnically motivated public and deliberate #unlawful actions” & said that Russia’s action have "recently taken on a #systematic nature"

Our #systematic #review on chronic variable #stress (CVS) procedures in rodents is now out in Journal of Neuroendocrinology!

onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10

A sister study to this, focussing on the reporting and justification of sample size in these studies (currently in review somewhere else) can be found on BioRXiv biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

We systematically explored the literature where behavioural tests were performed following CVS. We found extreme variability in terms of the protocols used with any hardly any study using the same CVS protocol. We then asked whether the specific protocol influenced the outcomes of the study. For instance, we would expect a longer stress to cause a larger effect than a shorter one. We found only very small correlations between the strength of the stress protocol and the effect size measured in the study. In a case (forced swim test) correlation was even negative. Overall, our analysis reveals complex relation between stress protocols and behavioural outcomes and raises important ethical questions on the design of CVS studies.

Any comments very welcome, we're working on a couple of follow up manuscripts if anyone's interested!

The serotonin theory of depression: a systematic review of the evidence (2022) — nature.com/articles/s41380-022
#HackerNews #serotonin #theory #depression #systematic #review #mental #health #evidence #2022

NatureThe serotonin theory of depression: a systematic umbrella review of the evidence - Molecular PsychiatryThe serotonin hypothesis of depression is still influential. We aimed to synthesise and evaluate evidence on whether depression is associated with lowered serotonin concentration or activity in a systematic umbrella review of the principal relevant areas of research. PubMed, EMBASE and PsycINFO were searched using terms appropriate to each area of research, from their inception until December 2020. Systematic reviews, meta-analyses and large data-set analyses in the following areas were identified: serotonin and serotonin metabolite, 5-HIAA, concentrations in body fluids; serotonin 5-HT1A receptor binding; serotonin transporter (SERT) levels measured by imaging or at post-mortem; tryptophan depletion studies; SERT gene associations and SERT gene-environment interactions. Studies of depression associated with physical conditions and specific subtypes of depression (e.g. bipolar depression) were excluded. Two independent reviewers extracted the data and assessed the quality of included studies using the AMSTAR-2, an adapted AMSTAR-2, or the STREGA for a large genetic study. The certainty of study results was assessed using a modified version of the GRADE. We did not synthesise results of individual meta-analyses because they included overlapping studies. The review was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42020207203). 17 studies were included: 12 systematic reviews and meta-analyses, 1 collaborative meta-analysis, 1 meta-analysis of large cohort studies, 1 systematic review and narrative synthesis, 1 genetic association study and 1 umbrella review. Quality of reviews was variable with some genetic studies of high quality. Two meta-analyses of overlapping studies examining the serotonin metabolite, 5-HIAA, showed no association with depression (largest n = 1002). One meta-analysis of cohort studies of plasma serotonin showed no relationship with depression, and evidence that lowered serotonin concentration was associated with antidepressant use (n = 1869). Two meta-analyses of overlapping studies examining the 5-HT1A receptor (largest n = 561), and three meta-analyses of overlapping studies examining SERT binding (largest n = 1845) showed weak and inconsistent evidence of reduced binding in some areas, which would be consistent with increased synaptic availability of serotonin in people with depression, if this was the original, causal abnormaly. However, effects of prior antidepressant use were not reliably excluded. One meta-analysis of tryptophan depletion studies found no effect in most healthy volunteers (n = 566), but weak evidence of an effect in those with a family history of depression (n = 75). Another systematic review (n = 342) and a sample of ten subsequent studies (n = 407) found no effect in volunteers. No systematic review of tryptophan depletion studies has been performed since 2007. The two largest and highest quality studies of the SERT gene, one genetic association study (n = 115,257) and one collaborative meta-analysis (n = 43,165), revealed no evidence of an association with depression, or of an interaction between genotype, stress and depression. The main areas of serotonin research provide no consistent evidence of there being an association between serotonin and depression, and no support for the hypothesis that depression is caused by lowered serotonin activity or concentrations. Some evidence was consistent with the possibility that long-term antidepressant use reduces serotonin concentration.

’The report came more than 100 years after a June 1921 report by the #justice department’s Bureau of Investigation, a precursor to the #FBI, blamed the #massacre on Black men and alleged that perpetrators did not violate any federal #laws.

The Friday #DoJ #report, however, acknowledged that the attack by white #citizens on Black #residents “was so #systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob #violence.”’

The Broader Push to Rewrite #History.

Israel's assault on #Palestinian #heritage goes beyond fabricated #archaeological narratives—it’s a #systematic effort to erase history and consolidate control. Here are more key aspects of the campaign:

#Looting of #WestBank #Antiquities :

For decades, #Israel has #exploited the occupied territories' rich archaeological sites, #smuggling thousands of #artifacts to build its #colonial narrative. The new bill seeks to #institutionalize this #theft, granting #extremist officials unchecked authority over excavation and #HeritagePreservation in Palestinian areas.

The Role of the Israeli Antiquities Authority:

Under the guise of #AcademicResearch, the #IsraeliAntiquitiesAuthority frequently removes artifacts from the West Bank, exhibiting them in Israeli #museums without acknowledging their Palestinian origins. This process not only strips Palestinians of their #cultural history but also bolsters Israel’s claim to the land.

Settler-Led Excavations:

Settler organizations like #Elad are at the forefront of #illegal excavations, particularly in East #Jerusalem. These digs disrupt Palestinian neighborhoods, displace families, and create #tourist sites glorifying biblical narratives while erasing the #multicultural history of the region.

Linking Settlements to #BiblicalClaims:

Israeli settlement expansion is increasingly tied to archaeological claims. By declaring areas with supposed biblical significance, such as #Hebron or #Shiloh as part of #Jewish heritage, the #llegalOccupation justifies #annexation and denies Palestinians access to their land.

The International Fallout:

Despite warnings from Israeli #archaeologists and global institutions, the government continues its #unilateral moves. If the bill passes, Israel risks severe isolation, as #CulturalTheft violates international conventions, including #UNESCO protection of #CulturalHeritage during conflicts.

These moves are not just an assault on history—they are an extension of the colonial project, reshaping the narrative to legitimize an occupation that erases Palestinian identity. The stakes go beyond antiquities; they encompass the right of a people to their past, present, and future.

Pfff. Chatgpt is not even good at structured summaries. It gets the rough ideas, but misses lots of nuances and important details that changes an article from being disruptive to being just blank statements.
Tested with :
Please, make me a detailed, bullet points structured, summary of "THE TYRANNY of STRUCTURELESSNESS" by Jo Freeman aka Joreen. The summary must keep the article structure and the chapter paragraphs. In each paragraph, I want 5 to 10 bullet points.
And a second input:
No, I want the exact chapter titles as separation : "introduction" , "FORMAL AND INFORMAL STRUCTURES", "THE NATURE OF ELITISM", "THE "STAR" SYSTEM", "POLITICAL IMPOTENCE", "PRINCIPLES OF DEMOCRATIC STRUCTURING"

I think the result can't be used for more than letting people believe you read the article and vaguely remember its content. It misses sailliant points like the actual nature of elits (ie groups of friends with common interests using unaccountable back channels for their interactions) ; the star system letting the choice of spoke people be made by people out of the organization (because they need interface with the system), making impossible for the organization to control who spoke for it and how, creating disfunctional relationships with spoke persons, etc etc.
This is really not very good.

And it means that I can't avoid to do my homework, this is frustrating :p
