Mark A, Graber, Levinson Sanford, and Tushnet Mark, eds. Constitutional Democracy in Crisis? Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/law/9780190888985.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
Are constitutional democracies around the world really experiencing a global crisis? Constitutional Democracies in Crisis? asks whether the apparent weakening of many constitutional democracies around the world is simply part of the normal ebb and flow of constitutional democracy, or whether complaints about the present state of constitutional democracy are largely from people on the political left upset to learn that many of their compatriots do not share their values on such matters as immigration, globalization, and the environment. The contributions include background material on the nature of constitutional crises, essays on the state of constitutional democracy in specific regimes or regions, essays on the influence of such global forces as climate change, religious fundamentalism, terrorism, economic inequality, globalization, immigration, populism, and racism/ethnocentrism, and observations about the contemporary state of constitutional democracy. The book provides a general guide to the state of constitutional democracy during the second decade of the twentieth century that should be useful for scholars, students, and general readers, providing frameworks and information for assessing the contemporary state of constitutional democracy. Finally, the essays diagnose the causes of the present afflictions of constitutional democracies in particular regimes, regions, and across the globe.

Debaveye, Yves, Dieter Mesotten, and Greet Van den Berghe. Hyperglycaemia, diabetes, and other endocrine emergencies. Oxford University Press, 2015. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/med/9780199687039.003.0069.
Full textAbstract:
Although endocrine pathology is usually treated in outpatient clinic, intensive care may be required when endocrinopathies are associated with other medical illnesses or reach a state of decompensation. Although endocrine emergencies are quite rare, they are potentially life-threatening, if not recognized promptly and managed effectively. Therefore, every clinician should always be attentive to a possible diagnosis of these complex disorders. The three major diabetic emergencies comprise diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar state, and prolonged hypoglycaemia. Hyperglycaemic crises are characterized by hypovolaemia, electrolyte disturbances, and potentially life-threatening triggers. Hence, airway-breathing-circulation securement, diagnosis and treatment of the underlying condition, and fluid resuscitation are the cornerstones of acute diabetic ketoacidosis/hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar state management. Subsequently, monitoring and correction of electrolyte disturbances and insulin treatment are initiated. Profound hypoglycaemia should be suspected in every coma patient with an indistinct history or treated with insulin or sulfonylurea/meglitinide. This condition warrants an immediate and a sufficiently long administration of glucose, under blood glucose monitoring. Alternatively, glucagon may be injected subcutaneously, or preferably intramuscularly. Hyperglycaemia in intensive care unit patients is associated with adverse outcome which can be prevented via the implementation of glucose control with intravenous insulin. One should hereby target glucose levels to be as close to normal as possible, without evoking unacceptable glucose fluctuations and hypoglycaemia. The classical non-diabetic endocrine emergencies comprise thyroid storm, myxoedema coma, acute adrenal crisis, and phaeochromocytoma. They all pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and require specific treatment such as endocrine replacement or blockage therapy. It is important to note that they are occasionally the presenting manifestation in undiagnosed patients. This chapter also briefly discusses amiodarone-induced thyroid dysfunction.

Full textAbstract:
What happens to European Union (EU) fiscal policy coordination in hard times? Recent accounts of the EU have portrayed the Union as plagued by an austerity regime and rampant moral hazard. Charlotte Rommerskirchen provides an alternative account of economic cooperation in Europe during the Great Recession and the European Debt Crisis. Drawing on Mancur Olson’s theory of collective action, EU Fiscal Policy Coordination in Hard Times combines evidence from statistical analysis and extensive interviews with key players. This book reaches an unexpected conclusion regarding the state of collective action in times of crises: Free riding was not rife. Despite heated accusations, member states’ crisis policies matched their fiscal room for maneuver. The real collective action failure is instead diagnosed in the inability to sanction free riders at the EU level and empowering erratic bond markets to discipline governments.

Full textAbstract:
The existence of the syndromes of relative adrenal insufficiency, or critical illness corticosteroid insufficiency, are debatable. In sepsis, there are alterations in plasma cortisol profiles, and corticotropin responsiveness with marked variability in responses between patients. It is probable that the spectrum of plasma and tissue glucocorticoid changes may represent a ‘sick euadrenal state’ analogous to the sick euthyroid state and may not reflect adrenocortical insufficiency. Treatment of acute adrenal crisis should not be delayed for the results of adrenal testing, and should consist of immediate supportive measures, fluid resuscitation, and high-dose intravenous glucocorticoid therapy. Admission to intensive care with a primary diagnosis of hyperadrenalism is uncommon. Patients usually present uncontrolled hypertension, electrolyte abnormalities or encephalopathy.

Full textAbstract:
Glut1 Deficiency (Glut1D, OMIM #606777) is caused by impaired glucose transport into the brain. The resulting cerebral “energy crisis” causes intractable seizures, developmental delay, and a complex movement disorder. The diagnosis is based on clinical features, low CSF glucose and/or mutations in the SLC2A1 gene. Paroxysmal exertion-induced dystonia (PED) and hereditary cryohydrocytosis have been described as allelic variants. Adults are increasingly being recognized through family pedigrees. The condition is effectively treatable by mimicking the metabolic state of fasting. High-fat carbohydrate-restricted ketogenic diets generate ketones that serve as an alternative fuel for the brain. In adults with Glut1D, novel modified ketogenic diets can be used, allowing more carbohydrates and greater palatability and compliance.

Full textAbstract:
Perioperative clinicians caring for patients with diabetes should understand the underlying mechanisms, diagnosis, and treatment of hyperglycemic crises. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) require prompt recognition and treatment. Disturbances such as these can create acute problems associated with intravascular volume and electrolyte abnormalities, as well as effect postoperative recovery and wound healing. Common precipitants, clinical manifestations, and basic treatment algorithms aimed at safely correcting the underlying cause, as well as the associated problems, are described in this chapter. Perioperative glycemic control is an area of recent intense investigation, and specific recommendations are provided herein.

Full textAbstract:
The three major diabetic emergencies comprise diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar state (HHS), and prolonged hypoglycaemia. These complications are preventable, treatable, and rather infrequently lead to prolonged intensive care (ICU) admission. Hyperglycaemic crises, whether DKA in type 1 diabetics, or HHS in type 2 diabetics, are characterized by moderate to severe hypovolaemia, electrolyte disturbances and a potentially life-threatening trigger. Hence, airway–breathing–circulation securement, diagnosis, and treatment of the underlying condition, as well as fluid resuscitation are the cornerstones of the acute management of DKA and HHS. Currently, a continuous, low (physiological) dose insulin scheme intravenously with omission of the priming bolus is advocated to avoid hypoglycaemia. An evidence-based treatment protocol, and reliable blood glucose and electrolyte measurements are compulsory to safely manage these crises until resolution of ketoacidosis or the hyperosmolar state. Profound hypoglycaemia should be suspected in every coma patient with an indistinct history or on a known regimen of insulin or sulphonylurea/meglitinide. This condition warrants immediate and sufficiently long administration of glucose orally or intravenously, as well as repeated monitoring of blood glucose levels. Alternatively, the counter-regulatory hormone glucagon may be injected intramuscularly in the emergency setting.

Full textAbstract:
The endocrine system encompasses a large variety of medical problems. This chapter covers the common causes relevant to the emergency department in line with the Royal College of Emergency Medicine (RCEM) curriculum. It covers a section on the management of diabetic patients, including the differentiation between type one and type two diabetes and the associated complications and management. Included in this chapter is the diagnosis and management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycaemic state (HHS). In addition, the key aspects of adrenocortical deficiency in terms of identifying and managing an individual with an acute Addison’s crisis as well as conditions associated with the hypothalamic–pituitary axis, are also included. Thyroid disorders are also included, as well as the pathophysiology of electrolyte disturbances such as calcium and sodium, which commonly appear in the short-answer question (SAQ) paper.

Full textAbstract:
Every day, in courtrooms around the United States, thousands of criminal defendants are represented by public defenders--lawyers provided by the government for those who cannot afford private counsel. Though often taken for granted, the modern American public defender has a surprisingly contentious history--one that offers insights not only about the "carceral state," but also about the contours and compromises of twentieth-century liberalism. First gaining appeal amidst the Progressive Era fervor for court reform, the public defender idea was swiftly quashed by elite corporate lawyers who believed the legal profession should remain independent from the state. Public defenders took hold in some localities but not yet as a nationwide standard. By the 1960s, views had shifted. Gideon v. Wainwright enshrined the right to counsel into law and the legal profession mobilized to expand the ranks of public defenders nationwide. Yet within a few years, lawyers had already diagnosed a "crisis" of underfunded, overworked defenders providing inadequate representation--a crisis that persists today. This book shows how these conditions, often attributed to recent fiscal emergencies, have deep roots, and it chronicles the intertwined histories of constitutional doctrine, big philanthropy, professional in-fighting, and Cold War culture that made public defenders ubiquitous but embattled figures in American courtrooms.

Full textAbstract:
<Online Only>This book recounts the transformation of Europe from the interwar era until the euro crisis, using the tools of constitutional analysis and critical theory. The central claim is twofold: post-war Europe is reconstituted in a manner combining political authoritarianism and economic liberalism, producing an order which is now in a critical condition. The book begins in the interwar era, when liberalism, unable to deal with mass democracy and the social question, turns to authoritarianism in an attempt to suppress democracy, with disastrous consequences in Weimar and elsewhere. After the Second World War, partly on the basis of a very different diagnosis of interwar collapse, and initially through a passive authoritarianism, inter-state sovereignty is reconfigured, state-society relations are depoliticized, and social relations transformed. Integration is substituted for internationalism, technocracy for democracy, and economic liberty for political freedom and class struggle. This transformation takes time to unfold, and it presents continuities as well as discontinuities. It is deepened by the neo-liberalism of the Maastricht era and the creation of Economic and Monetary Union, and yet countermovements then also emerge: geopolitically, in the return of the German question; and domestically, in the challenges presented by constitutional courts and anti-systemic movements. Struggles over sovereignty, democracy, and political freedom resurface, but are then more actively repressed through the authoritarian liberalism of the euro crisis phase. This leads now to an impasse. Anti-systemic politics return but remain uneasily within the EU, suggesting that the post-war order of authoritarian liberalism is reaching its limits. As yet, however, there has been no definitive rupture.</Online Only>

Full textAbstract:
Advance care planning (ACP) is widely recognised as a process to enable an individual’s preferences and wishes for palliative and end-of-life care to be recognized at a time when they no longer have the capacity to make such ‘real time’ and autonomous decisions. In dementia, it is essential that ACP be offered early in the diagnostic process and supported when the person still has the ability to do so. Often decisions about end-of-life care for a person with dementia are made in the later stages of the illness, at a point of transition or crisis and with the absence of a clear understanding of their wishes. Clinicians may then turn to family members in the assumption that they know what these would be, however, this is often not the case which can add undue pressure to families in distressing circumstances.

Full textAbstract:
Abusive leaders are now held accountable for their crimes in a way that was unimaginable just a few decades ago. What are the consequences of this recent push for international justice? This book explains why the “golden parachute” of exile is no longer an attractive retirement option for oppressive rulers. The book argues that this is both a blessing and a curse: leaders culpable for atrocity crimes fight longer civil wars because they lack good exit options, but the threat of international prosecution deters some leaders from committing atrocities in the first place. The book diagnoses an inherent tension between conflict resolution and atrocity prevention, two of the signature goals of the international community. It also sheds light on several important puzzles in world politics. Why do some rulers choose to fight until they are killed or captured? Why not simply save oneself by going into exile? Why do some civil conflicts last so much longer than others? Why has state-sponsored violence against civilians fallen in recent years? While exploring these questions, the book marshals statistical evidence on patterns of exile, civil war duration, and mass atrocity onset. It also reconstructs the decision-making processes of embattled leaders to show how contemporary international justice both deters atrocities and prolongs conflicts.

Full textAbstract:
Just as in community settings, there is a continuum of care for mentally ill inmates in correctional settings. This continuum progresses from ambulatory care through supported residential housing to inpatient or infirmary care. The continuum of care for inmates with mental illness includes outpatient care, emergency services, day treatment, supported residential housing, infirmary care, and inpatient psychiatric hospitalization services. Outpatient treatment is the least intensive level of care. In some systems this may include a day treatment program, which provides enhanced mental health services similar to a residential program as described below. In the case of outpatient treatment, participating inmates live in a general population housing unit with other inmates, many of whom are not in need of mental health services. A residential program (i.e., housing unit) within the correctional setting is provided for inmates with chronic mental illness who do not require inpatient treatment but do require enhanced mental health services. Such a designated housing unit can provide a safe and therapeutic environment for those unable to function adequately within the general inmate population. Crisis intervention services include both brief counseling and supervised stabilization. The latter, often provided in an infirmary setting, serve short-term stabilization and/or diagnostic purposes. A psychiatric inpatient program is the most intensive level of care and is often provided by the state psychiatric hospital system. This chapter describes each level and how they may be adapted successfully to function in correctional settings to meet the needs of individuals with mental illness.
