Kulturelle Identität und Differenz : das Jüdische und das Christliche in Heinrich Heines "Rabbi von Bacherach"
Der vorliegende Aufsatz will im Fragment "Der Rabbi von Bacherach" von Heinrich Heine, erschienen 1840, die Problematik der kulturellen Hybridität am Beispiel der Protagonisten Rabbi Abraham und Ritter Don Isaak Abarbanel diskutieren. Meine Überlegungen gehen dahin zu zeigen, dass Heine in diesem Fragment das Christliche und das Jüdische so dargestellt hat, dass die Möglichkeit einer binären Trennung zwischen beiden Räumen unmöglich wird. Aus seiner Inszenierung des Dialogs zwischen dem anscheinend orthodoxen Juden Abraham und dem konvertierten Juden Abarbanel geht hervor, dass der Kontakt mit dem Fremden immer mit einer Veränderung des Eigenen einhergeht
Hypersexuality in Neurological Disorders
The issue of hypersexuality in neurological disorders is grossly underreported. More research has been done into sexual dysfunction (outside of hypersexuality) in neurological disorders such as erectile dysfunction and hyposexuality (loss of libido). Furthermore, in Parkinson’s disease research, most mention of hypersexuality has been in conjunction with other impulse control disorders and has therefore not been examined in depth on its own. Although in recent years hypersexuality has become more recognized as an issue in research, there is still very limited information regarding its manifestations, impact, and correlates. It is therefore important to explore this area in detail in order to broaden understanding associated with this sensitive issue. Perhaps in doing so, barriers will be broken and the issue will become more easily discussed and, eventually, more systematically assessed and better managed
Treatment Options for Urogenital Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease
OPINION STATEMENT: Urogenital dysfunction is commonly reported in Parkinson's disease (PD), and history taking and a bladder diary form the cornerstone of evaluation. The assessment of lower urinary tract (LUT) symptoms include urinalysis, ultrasonography, and urodynamic studies and help to evaluate concomitant urological pathologies such as benign prostate enlargement. Antimuscarinic medications are the first line treatment for overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms and solifenacin has been specifically studied in PD. Antimuscarininc drugs may exacerbate PD-related constipation and xerostomia, and caution is advised when using these medications in individuals where cognitive impairment is suspected. Desmopressin is effective for the management of nocturnal polyuria which has been reported to be common in PD. Intradetrusor injections of botulinum toxin have been shown to be effective for detrusor overactivity, however, are associated with the risk of urinary retention. Neuromodulation is a promising, minimally invasive treatment for PD-related OAB symptoms. Erectile dysfunction is commonly reported and first line treatments include phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors. A patient-tailored approach is required for the optimal management of urogenital dysfunction in PD
