Smith, Philip. Narrating Global Warming. Edited by Jeffrey C. Alexander, Ronald N. Jacobs, and Philip Smith. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780195377767.013.28.

Abstract:
This article examines global warming using the narrative genre model of risk evaluation. The narrative genre model of risk evaluation offers a systematic and comparative way of looking at the form and structure of storytelling and its consequences for human action. It is based on a number of claims, for example: uncertain events and real world facts are “clues”; we can see things as low mimetic, romantic, tragic, or apocalyptic; binary oppositions play a role as building blocks for wider storytelling activity. The article first provides a background on the issues of global warming, climate change, and greenhouse gas emissions before discussing the rise and growing acceptance of the apocalyptic genre as part of the discourse on global warming. It then considers the critique of apocalypticism, arguing that it is not only a bad genre guess that can be mocked, but also a hegemonic and anti-democratic force. It concludes with a commentary on how the narration of global warming is taking place at two levels.

Abstract:
This chapter introduces the main risk factors for non-communicable diseases (NCDs), using different causal webs. It uses the Global Burden of Disease data to describe the burden of these NCD risk factors. It uses the socioecological model and the World Health Organization’s conceptual framework for social determinants of health to show the different levels of influences relevant to NCDs. This chapter presents case studies to show how a life-course approach and health-in-all-policies approach could address these broad ranges of NCD risk factors. It discusses the importance of primary prevention efforts organized around multilevel interventions and shows that they are more likely to be more successful than single-focus efforts.

Full text
Abstract:
The authors develop a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with a banking sector to analyse the impact of the financial crisis in developing countries and the role of the monetary policy response, with an application to Zambia. The crisis is interpreted as a combination of three related shocks: a worsening in the terms of the trade, an increase in the country’s risk premium, and a decrease in the risk appetite of local banks. Model simulations broadly match the path of the economy during this period. The model-based analysis reveals that the initial policy response contributed to the domestic impact of the crisis by further tightening financial conditions. The authors derive policy implications for central banks, and for dynamic stochastic general equilibrium modelling of monetary policy, in low-income countries.

Abstract:
As global interest rates hover near historic lows, defined benefit pension plan sponsors must grapple with the prospect of lower investment returns. We examine three levers that can enhance portfolio outcomes in a low-return world: increased contributions; reduced investment costs; and increased portfolio risk. We use portfolio simulations based on a stochastic asset class forecasting model to evaluate each lever according to two criteria: the magnitude of impact and the certainty that this impact will be realized. We show that increased contributions have the greatest and most certain impact. Reduced costs have a more modest, but equally certain impact. Increased risk can deliver a significant impact, but with the least certainty.

Mark, Feldman. Multinational Enterprises and Investment Treaties. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/law-iic/9780198809722.016.0005.

Full text
Abstract:
Over the past few decades, a few thousand international investment agreements have been concluded. One cornerstone of those treaties has been a straightforward model of foreign investment: an investor based in a home state that has made an investment located in the territory of a host state. Under that model, treaty protections operate reciprocally, protecting the investments of each treaty party’s nationals made in the territory of another treaty party. That model, however, often does not capture current economic reality. Foreign investments by multinational enterprises routinely involve multiple jurisdictions in which inputs are traded and through which capital is channeled. The reliance by multinational enterprises on international production networks and transit investment has challenged the reciprocal foundation of investment treaties. This chapter responds to that risk by developing strategies for policymakers and decision makers to preserve the reciprocal foundation of investment treaties in a twenty-first-century global economy.

Rodgers, Yana van der Meulen. Fertility and Contraceptive Use. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190876128.003.0004.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter uses analysis of aggregate data, a theoretical model, and a review of the empirical literature to examine the relationship between contraceptive availability and fertility. A correlation analysis shows that as contraceptive use rises, fertility rates fall, thus supporting the main rationale for investments in family-planning programs. These aggregate data on contraception and fertility are consistent with a theoretical model of women’s reproductive health decisions. The model can be used to predict the effects of an increase in the cost of contraceptives as might occur under the global gag rule. Higher prices and decreased availability of contraceptives are predicted to lower the intensity with which women use contraception, which results in a higher risk of unintended pregnancies. Depending on the relative costs of having an abortion and giving birth, more unintended pregnancies will lead to higher abortion rates or birth rates or both.

HEARTS in the Americas: Guide and Essentials for Implementation. Pan American Health Organization, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.37774/9789275125281.

Full text
Abstract:
The World Health Organization (WHO) launched the Global Hearts Initiative and its HEARTS Technical Package in 2016. Its aim is to improve clinical preventive services in primary health care (PHC) using highly effective, scalable, sustainable, and proven interventions. As the WHO Regional Office for the Americas, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) is developing and coordinating the HEARTS in the Americas Initiative with a clear vision: By 2025, HEARTS will be the institutionalized model for cardiovascular disease risk management, including hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia in primary health care in the Americas. The HEARTS in the Americas Initiative is entering its sixth year of implementation, having expanded from the original cohort of 4 countries to 22 current countries implementing the HEARTS model. The accumulation of knowledge, practices, and experiences from the field and from different levels of implementation has been compiled in this new Guide and Essentials for Implementation. This manual complements the WHO HEARTS technical package Implementation Guide. Expanding on specific lessons learned from the systematic implementation of HEARTS in the Americas as it spans various roles and requires coordination across ministry of health (MOH) departments, stakeholders, partner agencies, scientific societies, and academic institutions. Documenting the implementation and scale-up experiences of countries in the Americas is timely to propel forward the institutionalization of the HEARTS model for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk management, including hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia in PHC in the Americas by 2025. This manual is designed to be practical and user-friendly. It aims to guide implementers at national and subnational levels to navigate throughout different stages of implementation and to ensure longtime sustainability. The manual is written for national focal points, managers and coordinators at subregional, provincial, district, municipal level, and health facilities implementing HEARTS. It is intended to answer frequently asked questions about the premises, objectives, components, and steps for implementation of the HEARTS in the Americas Initiative.

Full text
Abstract:
The conceptual model, definition, and classification of chronic kidney disease (CKD) were first described in the National Kidney Foundation’s Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) guidelines in 2002 and have had a major impact on patient care and research. Since this publication there has been an increased recognition that the cause of CKD influences progression and complications. In addition, epidemiologic reports from diverse populations have consistently shown graded relations between higher albuminuria and adverse kidney outcomes and complications, in addition to, and independent of, low GFR. Given these new understanding in risk relationships, Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) updated the original guidelines in 2012. The updated guidelines retain the KDOQI definition of CKD, but recommend classifying CKD by the cause, level of GFR, and level of urinary albumin to creatinine ratio. Specialized nephrology care is recommended for severe reduction in GFR or high albuminuria, uncertain diagnosis, or difficult to manage complications.

Scott, Juliette R. Legal Translation Outsourced. Oxford University Press, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190900014.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
This highly interdisciplinary practitioner research explores the outsourced legal translation environment, with a view to optimizing fundamental aspects of procurement—commissioning and performance. The results of a global survey are analysed: participants comprised 84 principals, for the most part from leading law firms and corporations, and 303 legal translation practitioners (41 countries, 6 continents). Concepts from corporate agency theory are used to shed light on market dysfunctions, such as a tortuous chain of supply, while perspectives from genre theory, comparative law, and functionalist translation studies are applied to offer a multidimensional model for legal translation performance, and to foreground its risks and constraints. Fitness-for-purpose is examined as a workable quality criterion associated with translation briefs supplied. Professionalization and empowerment are raised as key factors with potential to significantly improve target text quality. Extensive fieldwork has brought to light ‘hot spots’ for risk, such as severely impeded information flows, insufficient interaction between market actors, and deficient translation briefs. The groundwork for dissemination to practice has already been laid, for example using a briefing template specifically developed for the outsourcing of legal translation, set to benefit commissioning clients by increasing the fitness-for-purpose of translated texts. The types of legal texts outsourced have proved in many instances to be highly sensitive, which further emphasizes the gravity of the problem and the need to take action.

Barilan, Y. Michael, Margherita Brusa, and Aaron Ciechanover, eds. Can precision medicine be personal; Can personalized medicine be precise? Oxford University Press, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198863465.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
In the medicine of the fifty years, the prevailing paradigms were the ‘biopsychosocial model’ and ‘evidence-based medicine’. The currently emerging vision is ‘personalized/precision medicine’. The two interchangeable names—personalized medicine and precision medicine—raise fundamental questions. Is increased precision an improvement in the personal aspects of care or does it risk an erosion of privacy? Do ‘precise’ and ‘personalized’ approaches marginalize public health? What are the roles of culture and society in the process of personalization? How can personalized medicine’s focus on the differences among individuals contribute to the global enterprise of health? In this project, scientists who are leading the revolution of personalized medicine are engaged with clinicians, ethicists, and experts in sociology of medicine and medical law in the search for a common language, elucidating and discussing the moral and social dimensions of personalized/precision medicine. The result is diverse layers of critical analysis and insights. The book contains eighteen chapters. The opening chapters map the horizon of the discourse, articulating the vision and practice of personalized medicine in the contexts of the history of ideas, philosophy of science, and global health. The subsequent chapters explicate specific topics: genetic newborn screening, rare diseases, disorders of consciousness, gender, the clinical encounter, public health, and CRISPR. The concluding chapters offer critical reflections by academic science and technology studies, and by religious traditions. The book concludes by presenting an up-to-date overview from the perspective of research and development.
