Ultraweak photon emissions (UPEs) represent a plausible yet underexplored biophysical mechanism underlying energetic biocommunication between human organisms, particularly in the context of biofield therapies (BTs) such as Reiki, Therapeutic Touch, and External Qigong. Although biophotonic emission is a well-documented property of living systems across all kingdoms of life, the present perspective focuses specifically on the human organism as a photoinformatic system. The central methodological gap obstructing empirical validation lies in the inability to simultaneously detect UPEs from a huma

  1. Stroboscopic light stimulation safety within and beyond laboratory settings: Observational evidence and practical guidance

    Stroboscopic light stimulation (SLS) reliably evokes geometric visual hallucinations and, in some contexts, altered-state experiences. Its increasing use in research, public, recreational and exploratory clinical settings creates a need for proportionate safety guidance. The main concern is a visually triggered seizure in a susceptible individual; reported non-epileptic responses include discomfort or distress. We combined a retrospective survey of safety practices and reported events across four laboratories, provider-reported operational data from two commercial SLS platforms, and a focused

    Gene therapy can restore retinal signals absent since birth in animal models, yet the translation to humans remains challenging. An unresolved possibility is that meaningful retinal rescue already occurs in humans, but its impact is masked by downstream neural bottlenecks shaped by long-term deprivation. Tracing restored signals through the visual system is therefore essential to distinguish rescue and constraints. We address this challenge in CNGA3-associated achromatopsia, in which retinal cone photoreceptors are present but non-functional from birth. We used tests specifically targeting con

    Sickle cell retinopathy (SCR) is the most important ocular manifestation in sickle cell disease (SCD). Retinal tissue is highly sensible to vaso-occlusion and hypoxia observed in SCR pathophysiology, with consequent vessel remodeling and ultimately neovascularization in its proliferative form. Severe cases are followed by vitreous hemorrhage and retinal detachment, with 10–20% of vision loss in affected eyes. Current treatment options such as anti-VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) injections and laser photocoagulation are based on other proliferative retinopathies, without pre-clinical

  4. The Near-Death Experience, an Instance of Higher-Dimensional Phenomenal Consciousness?

    Near-death experiences — title watchPekka RechardtSeptember 29, 2026

    Phenomenal consciousness has no satisfactory explanation in the strict natural scientific physicalist framework. This may be an indication of consciousness not being a causal outcome of neurophysics at all. If this is the case, there would be no grounds for postulating that the collapse of neurophysical structures at death would dissolve consciousness and its constituent elements. If consciousness does not disappear when neurophysical functions terminate, the near-death experience could be an indication of the continuation of consciousness after the collapse of brain functions. This would be i

    Set in 1847 during the peak of the North Atlantic whaling industry, The Leviathan's Reckoning presents a poignant narrative of human greed, moral tension, and nature's retribution. Driven by an insatiable hunger for whale oil profit, Captain Fred Winston of the brig Sea Serpent ignores an elderly fisherman's stern warnings regarding the cursed waters of Death Valley, going so far as ordering the innocent man's demise to protect his commercial interests. Aboard the ship are two young boys — the captain's introspective son, Johnny, and a trapped orphan, Banner — both of whom harbour a deep avers

    BACKGROUNDSeptic shock is associated with high mortality and substantial long-term morbidity.Survivors may experience early trauma-related stress symptoms, anxiety, and depression during recovery.In this study, psychological stress was operationalized as screening positivity on the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), not as a formal diagnosis of acute stress disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder.We evaluated the prevalence of IES-Rdefined early psychological stress, its associations with illness severity and 90-day outcomes, and an exploratory multivariable association model in septic

    Background Patients following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) frequently experience elevated anxiety and fear of progression (FoP), which has a high comorbidity and significantly increases adverse postoperative event risks. This prospective study explored the dynamic longitudinal associations between anxiety and FoP in post-CABG patients using network analysis methods. Methods A prospective longitudinal design enrolled first-time CABG patients from three tertiary hospitals in Urumqi, China. Anxiety and FoP were assessed using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and the Fear of Pr

    Abstract This article examines Evgeniia Nekrasova’s Skin ( Kozha , 2021) by situating the novel within key transformations in 2020s Russian culture, particularly within the rise of feminist discourses and digital literary experimentation. Through a close reading of the novel’s narrative structure, language experiments, and reception, this article analyzes the device of skin exchange between a Russian serf and an enslaved African American woman as a metaphor for cultural transformation and equivalence. It argues that the novel mobilizes African American women’s literature as a powerful model, p
