“The risk of age”? Early detection test, prostate cancer and practices of self
2010
Abstract Drawing on Rose and Novas’s concept of “biological citizenship” and Michel Foucault's "practices of self", this paper reflects on how men become agents of their own therapeutic regimens, and yet internalise messages of risk and practices of self within early detection of prostate cancer discourses in the late 20th century. In doing so, it traces the ways in which concepts of age, gender and risk converge at the problematic site of prostate cancer and preventative health strategies, both of the state and the medical profession. Analysing how insecurities have simultaneously resulted in over-promoting and over-diagnosing risk, thereby blurring the lines between normal and pathologica…
Should ecological citizenship advocates praise the green state?
2015
This article focuses on the relationship between ecological citizenship and the green state and asks whether it is a productive one. First, I examine the political system of an ideal ecological state to assess how it could encourage ecological citizenship. Then, I turn my attention to how eco-states might emerge and be sustained, and the obstacles they may encounter. I show that the green state has a strong potential to develop ecological citizenship, albeit with a rather narrow focus on its deliberative dimension. However, my main point is that this potential may not be fully realised because the green state is grounded on a postliberal ecological democracy and an ecologically modernised e…
Kreacja śmierci według Witolda Gombrowicza : wokół "Błądzenia" z Teatru Narodowego w Warszawie
2016
Artykuł prezentuje przewijający się w twórczości Witolda Gombrowicza motyw śmierci. Obsesyjnie powracające w jego utworach opozycje: młodość — starość, kultura - natura, dojrzałość - niedojrzałość, w kontekście moich rozważań, potwierdzają tezę, dotyczącą całego dzieła autora „Ferdydurke”, że jego życie było nieustanną ucieczką przed formą i jednoczesnym popadaniem w kolejne formalne schematy. Punktem wyjścia do analizy „oblicza śmierci” u Gombrowicza uczyniłam spektakl „Błądzenie” Jerzego Jarockiego, zrealizowany w Teatrze Narodowym w Warszawie. Autorski scenariusz reżysera prezentuje fragmenty najważniejszych tekstów Gombrowicza, kolejno: „Ferdydurke”, „Iwony księżniczki Burgunda”, „Opere…
Effects of statins, fibrates, rosuvastatin, and ezetimibe beyond cholesterol: the modulation of LDL size and subclasses in high-risk patients.
2007
Increasing evidence suggests that the quality-rather than just the quantity-of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) exerts a great influence on cardiovascular risk. LDLs comprise multiple subclasses with discrete size and density, and different physicochemical composition, metabolic behaviors, and atherogenicity. Individuals generally cluster into 2 broad subgroups. Most have a predominance of large LDLs, and some have a higher proportion of small particles. Small, dense LDLs are good predictors of cardiovascular events and progression of coronary artery disease. Their predominance has been accepted as an emerging cardiovascular risk factor by the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Tre…
