Abstract:
Introduction Entrapment neuropathies of upper limbs such as carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndromes are common in the general population. Identification of entrapment neuropathies of upper limbs in patients with multiple sclerosis can be clinically challenging as signs and symptoms could be attributed to multiple sclerosis. People at later stages of multiple sclerosis use mobility aids and wheelchairs. Weakness of hands in this cohort due to entrapment neuropathies could adversely affect their mobility and independence. Methods This was a retrospective review of records of patients with multiple sclerosis referred for clinical neurophysiological studies with clinical suspicion of upper limb entrapment neuropathies over a 10-year period. We collected demographic details, clinical features, clinical neurophysiological data and details of aids and appliances used for mobility. Results Among 71 patients, 38 (53.5%) patients had at least one entrapment neuropathy of upper limb confirmed by clinical neurophysiological studies. Twelve (31%) patients had median nerve entrapment, 20 (53%) had ulnar nerve entrapment and six (16%) had both. Risk of ulnar nerve entrapment was significantly higher in patients using a powered wheelchair (odds ratio 5.7, 95% confidence interval (1.7–18.7, p = 0.0037). Discussion Entrapment neuropathies should be considered in patients with multiple sclerosis reporting sensory and motor symptoms of hands.

Abstract:
Abstract The article presents a few of the demographic transformations in Romania in the period after the fall of the communist regime in 1989, when the new social circumstances, along with legal changes, had an undeniable effect on the manifestation of the demographic phenomena and thus on the volume and the structure of the population. The present article summarizes and also describes the transformations, with a few attempts at explaining them, without, however, aligning to any major theory that attempts to explain what has happened and to predict what will come next. In order to avoid entrapment within an enclosed discursive universe, there will be references to the situation of other countries, mainly in the geographical area of Romania and, more widely, in the European Union. The demographic phenomena that are analysed individually are fertility and mortality, which have a direct impact on the natural growth of the population. There are only a few suggestions on transnational migration in the section devoted to the changes of the population. Last, but not least, the text is a critical analysis of some of the official demographic statistics put forward by the National Institute of Statistics and even by EUROSTAT – data that is questionable or outright false and risks misleading the reader that is less familiar with the demographic situation of Romania.

Abstract:
Several studies have emphasized the heterogeneity of fibromyalgia patients. Furthermore, fibromyalgia patients are considered a high-risk suicide group. The ideation-to-action framework proposes a set of transdiagnostic psychological factors involved in the development of suicidal ideation. The present study aims to explore the existence of different subgroups according to their vulnerability to suicidal ideation through these transdiagnostic psychological variables and a set of variables typically associated with fibromyalgia. In this cross-sectional study, 151 fibromyalgia patients were assessed through the Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory-II, Plutchik Suicide Risk Scale, Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, Defeat Scale, Entrapment Scale, Psychache Scale, and Beck Hopelessness Scale. A K-means cluster analysis identified two clusters, one (45.70%) according to a low vulnerability, and a second (54.30%) with a high vulnerability to suicidal ideation. These clusters showed statistically significant differences in suicidal ideation and suicide risk. However, no differences were observed in most socio-demographic variables. In conclusion, fibromyalgia patients who present a clinical condition characterized by a moderate-high degree of physical dysfunction, overall disease impact and intensity of fibromyalgia-associated symptoms, along with a high degree of perceived burdensomeness, thwarted belongingness, defeat, entrapment, psychological pain and hopelessness, form a homogeneous group at high risk for suicidal ideation.

Abstract:
Global civilisation, and therefore population health, is threatened by excessive inequality, weapons of mass destruction, inadequate economic and political theory and adverse global environmental change. The unequal distribution of global foreign exchange adjusted income is both a cause and a reflection of global social characteristics responsible for many aspects of these inter-related crises. ¶ The global distribution of foreign exchange adjusted income for the period 1964-1999 is examined. Using data for more than 99% of the global population, a substantial divergence in its distribution is found. The global Gini co-efficient, adjusted for national income inequality, increased from an already high value of 71% in 1964 to peak at more than 80% in 1995, before falling, very slightly, to 79% in 1999. The global distribution of purchasing parity power income is also examined, for a similar period. Though also found to be extremely unequal, its trend has not been to increased inequality. Implications of the differences between these two trends are discussed. ¶ A weighted time series index of global environmental change (IGEC) for the period 1960-1997 was also calculated. This uses nine categories of global time series environmental data, each scaled so that 100% represents the level of each category in nature prior to anthropogenic change; zero represents decline to a critical point. This index fell from 82% in 1960 to 55% in 1997, and will further decline during this century. ¶ Using evidence from several disciplines, it is argued that the decline in the IGEC correlates with major macro-environmental changes, which, combined with flawed social responses to scarcity and its perception, place at risk the ability of civilisation to function. This could occur because of the interaction of conflict, economically disastrous extreme climatic events, deterioration of other ecosystem services, regional food and water insecurity, and currently unforeseen events. Uncertainty regarding both a safe rate of decline and the tolerable nadir of the IGEC is substantial. ¶ Substantial reduction in the inequality of foreign exchange adjusted income is vital to enhance the development of policies able to reverse the decline in the environmental goods which underpin civilisation, and to promote the co-operation needed to maximise the chance that civilisation will survive.

Abstract:
Are starvation and violence ‘diseases’? If they are, a textbook of medicine must be prepared to recognize some novel pathogens. The most sinister cause of these two diseases is ‘demographic entrapment’, which occurs when a subsistence community exceeds (1) the carrying capacity of its local ecosystem (too many people for the land to support), (2) its ability to migrate to new land, and (3) the ability of its economy to produce goods and services, which it can exchange for food and other essentials. The outcome of entrapment is severe poverty, starvation and violence, and the problem is at its worst in Middle Africa, where populations multiplied seven times during the 20th century, and are expected to triple again by 2050. Remedy will not be found unless fertility is reduced, if necessary to one child only per family, but discussion of this is prevented by powerful taboos....
