Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the use of brief interventions for the treatment of alcohol and other substance use disorders and risky use. The authors provide definitions of brief interventions and a rationale for their use. They review the evidence base for brief interventions across primary care, emergency medical, college, and correctional settings, and include analysis of the impact of brief intervention on drinking and drug use and the relative costs of such services. They also describe several widely used frameworks or organizing structures for brief interventions including FRAMES (provide feedback, emphasize responsibility, give advice, menu of options, express empathy, support self-efficacy), SBIRT (screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment), and the five As (ask, assess, advise, assist, arrange). Finally, the authors discuss the therapeutic approach of motivational interviewing as an interaction style that can be used within the context of many brief intervention structures.

Abstract:
A pressure ulcer, defined by the National Pressure Advisory Panel and European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panels as localized injury to the skin or tissue as the result of pressure or pressure in combination with shear, can be an adverse complication of a hospital stay, especially for acute and critically-ill patients. Factors that can contribute to pressure ulcer development include the intensity and duration of pressure, tissue tolerance, shear, and friction. Common anatomical sites for pressure ulcers development are over bony prominences. The National Pressure Advisory Panel and European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panels define pressure ulcers in six stages according to the degree of tissue damage present in the wound. A risk assessment should be performed to identify the vulnerability of pressure ulcer development and provide guidance for the implementation of preventative interventions. For the critically-ill patient, several specific measures are advocated for preventing pressure ulcers.

Abstract:
Bleeding complications during percutaneous biliary intervention result from injury to the hepatic artery, hepatic vein, or portal vein. If bleeding originating from a hepatic artery branch is suspected, hepatic arteriography should be performed with and without the drainage catheter in place over a wire, and subselective embolization can be performed if a suitable target is identified. If a bleeding hepatic artery branch is not identified, bleeding from a portal vein branch is suspected. Treatment of portal vein injuries is challenging in this situation because obtaining direct percutaneous portal vein access is ill-advised. Although injuries to the hepatic artery or vein can often be treated by tract tamponade or arterial embolization, iatrogenic communication between the portal vein and biliary system can be difficult to treat effectively. This chapter presents a method to identify portal vein-to-biliary tract communications via cholangiography, with subsequent embolization via the transhepatic tract.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses the role of the gods, with emphasis on divine intervention as a compositional device. Of the cyclic epics, the Cypria shows the greatest divine activity, with many parallels to the Iliad in the range and function of divine interventions, though the notion of a controlling “will of Zeus” added much irony to the basic scheme. However, it is the Aethiopis that shows a clearer parallel to the Iliad in its mixture of divine aid and divine conflict. The other poems of the Cycle show a much closer affinity to the Odyssey. Divine intervention is used sparingly, with relatively few gods being involved; divine conflict is less emphasized; and gods mainly serve to inspire, advise, or hinder heroes to provide direction to the narrative. Also included is a discussion of the much freer use of prophecies and omens in the Cycle as compared with Homer.

Abstract:
Anxiety symptoms and anxiety disorders are highly prevalent among older people, including among those with physical frailty and cognitive impairment. Clinicians are advised to consider the effects of prescribed medication and other substances, and the influence of general medical conditions, in the older person presenting with anxiety. Psychological treatments are recommended for older people with anxiety disorders of mild to moderate severity. These include relaxation training, exposure-based interventions, and cognitive behaviour therapy. Pharmacological interventions are in widespread use, although there is little evidence in support of the long-term use of either benzodiazepines or antipsychotics in older people with anxiety disorders. Instead, treatment with antidepressant medication is recommended.

Abstract:
Rosemary Feurer traces the leading purveyor of anti-union services in the Midwest, A. A. Ahner, to frame employers’ antiunion strategies during the New Deal. She argues that the long learning curve that took place over decades explains why a thug agency survived and thrived instead of being eradicated during what is usually considered the heroic era of liberal intervention. Ahner became an accepted industrial relations advisor and counselor for major firms during the New Deal, with the assistance of a liberal as well as conservative forces, networks and alliances. Ahner’s career path only seems strange because historians cling to a framework of the post New Deal “Rise of the Right” with Southern origins while ignoring longer antecedents, networks, and learning

Abstract:
This framework utilizes business interests and the distribution of political power to understand the episodic nature of economic growth in fragile and conflict-affected states. Conflict, state capacity, and legitimacy are analysed alongside the business environment and structural transformation to explain when growth episodes arise and when those growth episodes have positive, or negative, feedback on the country’s political economy and state fragility. The guidebook is designed to help advisers working with development agencies to analyse country context and design interventions with the goal of enabling positive growth episodes that reduce fragility.

Abstract:
There are lifestyle strategies that may help preserve cognition in old age and in MCI. While the evidence is still suggestive rather than definitive it is strong enough to make suggestions to patients and families. Cognitive interventions such as computer-based cognitive stimulation and brain fitness programs may be helpful, although more generalized cognitive activities such as taking a college course or learning a new skill may be equally helpful. Aerobic exercise has the best track record to date among lifestyle interventions. Having a variety of leisure activities that combine psychological, physical, and social activities is advised. As far as well can tell, diets that are helpful for preventing heart disease such as the Mediterranean diet also may be good for cognition. The mechanisms for many of these strategies likely involve 1) the brain compensating for circuit loss by engaging new circuits to solve problems and 2) improvements in vascular health.

Abstract:
This chapter provides the first account of IMF commentary on and interventions in the French economic policy debate following the crash to analyse how the Fund has sought to inflect French policy settings and approaches. It also situates French macroeconomic policy developments in the context of the European policy debate to demonstrate how the IMF has worked to influence reforms to the Eurozone’s architecture. Drawing on interviews with French policy elites and advisors, as well as members of Fund missions to France, it demonstrates how the French government, alongside the IMF, sought a less pro-cyclical approach and to open up ‘fiscal space’ for growth-oriented policies within European economic and monetary arrangements. However, key centres of power, notably the German government, the European Commission, and the European Central Bank prioritized ‘moral hazard’ and the ‘crisis of debt’ narratives, whose policy corollaries were ever-tighter fiscal discipline and ramped-up austerity.

Abstract:
Cardiac patients should be advised about and have the opportunity to access a comprehensive cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation programme, addressing all aspects of lifestyle—smoking cessation, healthy eating, and being physically active—together with more effective management of blood pressure, lipids, and glucose. To achieve the clinical benefits of a multidisciplinary and multifactorial prevention programme we need to integrate professional lifestyle interventions with effective risk factor management and evidence-based drug therapies, appropriately adapted to the medical, cultural, and economic setting of a country. The challenge is to engage and motivate cardiologists, physicians, and health professionals to routinely practise high-quality preventive cardiology and promote a healthcare system which invests in prevention.

Abstract:
The administration of President Richard Nixon presents several examples of how Nixon and his national security adviser, Henry Kissinger, used food aid as a tool to advance foreign policy goals that Congress was attempting to foreclose. This chapter discusses two such examples: (1) food aid to Thailand in 1971, intended to free other financial resources in support of Southeast Asian military purchases, and (2) White House intervention in food aid decisions involving East Pakistan/Bangladesh and India in the months after Pakistani leader General Yahya Kahn unleased military reprisals against East Pakistan that led to the latter’s war of independence and a consequent flood of millions of East Pakistani refugees into India. Nixon’s support of Yahya Kahn and reluctance to assist India and the food aid-related repercussions of that support are described in this chapter.

Abstract:
This chapter, found in the bone, joint, and extremity pain section of the book, provides a succinct synopsis of a key study examining the frequency of incidental findings on knee magnetic resonance imaging. This summary outlines the study methodology and design, major results, limitations and criticisms, related studies and additional information, and clinical implications. Incidental meniscal damage on MRI was shown to be common in the general population, especially among the elderly, and is not necessarily attributable to patients’ knee symptoms. Authors advise those interpreting MRI reports and planning interventions that there is a high prevalence of incidental tears even among those without knee symptoms. In addition to outlining the most salient features of the study, a clinical vignette and imaging example are included in order to provide relevant clinical context.

Full text
Abstract:
After years of research and reflection on the work of the interdisciplinary family justice system this book offers a fresh approach to supporting the thousands of children every year who experience a complex form of bereavement following parental separation and divorce. This stressful family change, combined with the loss of support due to austerity cuts, can damage their education, well-being, mental health, and long-term life chances. This book argues for early preventative intervention which responds to children's worries when they first present them, without waiting until things have gone badly wrong. The book's radical proposals for reform involve a much more coordinated and joined-up approach by schools, the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service, and Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services. This book encourages practitioners and academics to look outside their professional silos and to see the world through the eyes of children in crisis to enable services to offer direct support in a manner and at a time when it is most needed.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter drills down into IMF/advanced economy government interactions and Fund efforts to influence the international economic policy debate during the Great Recession. It situates Fund thinking within the wider politics of austerity, charting how the Fund’s post-crash views on fiscal policy efficacy and economic stabilization were increasingly at odds with other key European players. The IMF mobilized its knowledge bank and scientific reputation to correct what key Fund figures saw as mistaken premises of austerity policies. Notably, the IMF counselled against precipitate exit from stimulus, debunked the notion that fiscal consolidation is in itself ‘growth friendly’, underlined that fiscal consolidation can be self-defeating, and, as the recession drew on, advised further counter-cyclical fiscal policy interventions to support the recovery. The Fund’s empirically backed policy advice advocated a ‘less now, more later’ approach to consolidation by countries with fiscal space.

Abstract:
Obesity is a serious chronic disease of epidemic and global proportions. The incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is increased in obese people. Since overweight and obesity are associated with decreased lifespan, weight loss might be expected to improve long-term survival and to have beneficial effects on CVD risk. The therapeutic approaches for obesity are lifestyle changes, drugs, and bariatric surgery. Lifestyle modifications include modest weight loss and moderate-intensity physical activity. A low-fat (low saturated fat), low-sugar diet rich in fruit and vegetables, as well as legumes and whole grains, should be advised for its beneficial impact on weight and cardiovascular risk. Bariatric surgery represents an effective treatment in cases of severe obesity. Prevention of overweight and obesity at the population level will probably play a major role in combating the present obesity epidemic. Combining different intervention strategies is probably the best choice for maximizing the effects and minimizing the costs.

Full text
Abstract:
Can it be justified to use neuroscientific technologies for influencing the functioning of human brain as a means of preventing offenders from engaging in future criminal conduct? This is indeed a highly controversial question and one which has a dark prehistory. Moreover, it is also a question that has attracted recent optimistic attention from researchers across different scientific fields. The purpose of this book is to consider various ethical challenges surrounding this question. More precisely, the author discusses issues such as, Is it morally acceptable to offer more lenient sentences to offenders in return for participation in neuroscientific treatment programmes? Would such offers be unacceptably coercive? Can it ever be morally justified to use compulsory neurointerventions as a means of preventing crime? Is it possible to administer neurointerventions as a type of punishment? Would it be acceptable for physicians to participate in the administration of neurointerventions on offenders? What is the moral significance of the sordid history of brain interventions for the present or future use of such treatment options? The author argues, on the one hand, that many of the in-principle objections to neuroscientific treatment are premature but also, on the other, that—given the way criminal justice systems currently function—we are well-advised not to put such treatment methods into practice.

Abstract:
Here, finally, the book turns to consider what is more conventionally called Athenian “government,” namely the activities of Demos, the council of 500, and the sundry poliadic “officials.” As the chapter stresses, Demos, the ultimate rule-making agency in Attica, was fundamentally different from a modern “state” in at least three ways. The first of these differences concerns their respective quiddities as social objects. Whereas a modern state is conventionally seen as a machine-like material assemblage of practices and individual persons, Demos was a kind of deathless corporate person in its own right, one that both pre-existed and outlived the particular individuals who happened to embody it at any given time. Second, by comparison with the conspicuously activist, highly interventionist states of modernity, Demos was a peculiarly inert kind of agency. In its primary incarnations in assembly meetings and law courts, its function was to serve as a purely deliberative rule-making body, in that it materialized to produce binding resolutions to issues raised by “civilians,” whether they were its assembly “advisors” or the prosecutors in court cases. Third, given that Athenian households were assumed to be largely responsible for governing themselves, both individually and collectively, the competence of Demos was necessarily limited. Essentially, it was responsible for producing binding decisions only on those matters which households could not already manage for themselves, like polis-wide cults, diplomacy, and warfare. In short, to summarize chapters 12-14, demokratia in Attica was not a modern-style “state-centered” form of rule. It was an ongoing exercise in self-management by the unitary social body of Demos, whether acting as its constituent parts or as the totality of the whole.
