Abstract:
This chapter discusses figure skating in Europe after World War II. The war in Europe ended in May 1945, but not until atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August did Japan capitulate. Formal terms of surrender were signed a month later. The International Skating Union Council met in July 1946 and set dates for the resumption of competition. European Championships commenced at Davos on January 31, 1947, while the World Championships followed two weeks later at Stockholm. Participation at the championships demonstrated the sport's durability and stature. The ladies' and pairs' events boasted more entries than in 1939. Not surprisingly, men's events had fewer entries. Participation increased in the men's event in 1948 but not to the prewar level.

Abstract:
Haydn’s instrumental music is often marked by peculiarities—events that feature harmonic deflections, gasping pauses, metrically dissonant accents, and the like—for which the customary methods of structural and stylistic analysis can promise only limited explanation. The evolving language of Disability Studies in music offers a vantage point for contemplating such idiosyncrasies, most notably those that suggest musical equivalents of impairment and recovery. A disability-related perspective may serve as a guide in the search for appropriate metaphors: words and images that can help breathe life into our interaction with a given work as listeners and performers. As witnessed in certain passages from Haydn’s string quartets and a symphony, a reading that shows the music to embody disabling conditions and their remediation helps us connect with emotions and experiences that may resonate with the lives of the composer and his contemporaries as well as with our own.

Abstract:
Inflammation is the beneficial host response to foreign challenge or tissue injury that ultimately leads to the restoration of tissue structure and function. Critical illness is associated with an overwhelming and prolonged inflammatory activation. Resolution of the inflammatory response is an active process that requires removal of the inciting stimuli, cessation of the pro-inflammatory response, a timely coordinated removal of tissue leukocyte infiltration, a conversion from ‘toxic’ to reparative tissue environment, and restoration of normal tissue structure and function. Mortality may result from deficits in these resolution mechanisms. Improved delivery of critical care through prevention of harm and removal of stimuli has already delivered significant mortality benefits. Most critically-ill patients present with uncontrolled inflammation, hence anti-inflammatory strategies ameliorating this response are likely to be too late and thus futile. Rather, strategies augmenting endogenous pathways involved in the control and appropriate curtailment of such inflammatory responses may promote resolution, repair, and catabasis. Recent evidence showing that inflammation does not simply ‘fizzle out’, but its resolution involves an active and coordinated series of events. Dysfunction of these resolution checkpoints alters the normal inflammatory pathway, and is implicated in the induction and maintenance of states such as ARDS and sepsis. Improved understanding of resolution biology should provide translational pathways to not only improve survival, but also to prevent long-term morbidity resulting from tissue damage.

Abstract:
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major complication of critical illness, associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Among survivors of AKI, a subset will develop the need for chronic dialysis. Chronic dialysis imposes a major physical, emotional, economic, and social burden on ICU survivors and their caregivers. Evidence suggests that the type of renal replacement therapy used in the acute setting may affect renal recovery differently. For example, intermittent haemodialysis (IHD) increases the risk of hypotension and acute volume and solute fluctuations, and such physiological events have been associated with fresh renal injury. In contrast, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) does not carry such risks. Consistent with such physiological and experimental observations and differences, several observational studies and some randomized controlled trials suggest that using IHD, instead of CRRT, as the preferred form of RRT increases the risk of patients entering a chronic dialysis programme. A recent meta-analysis confirmed these findings. Clinicians making decisions about the choice of RRT modality in ICU patients should carefully consider these observations.

Abstract:
This chapter tests to what extent variation in political support over time is influenced by political events. Analyzing an event within the realm of “normal politics,” i.e. a policy decision in a local community to close down schools in an affluent Swedish municipality, the authors study changes in political support among affected citizens and non-affected citizens before decision, after decision, and after implementation. They identify four mechanisms that cause citizens to maintain political support even when faced with a policy decision that affects them negatively: procedural fairness, compromise decisions, fading memories, and constitutional arrangements for vertical division of power. The chapter explores to what extent each of these mechanisms mediates the effect of a policy decision on political support, and find that the partial recovery of political support among negatively affected citizens was mainly driven by compromise decisions and procedural fairness.

Full text
Abstract:
From the Trojan War to the sack of Rome, from the fall of Constantinople to the bombings of World War II and the recent devastation of Syrian towns, the destruction of cities and the slaughter of civilian populations are among the most dramatic events in world history. But how reliable are literary sources for these events? Did ancient authors exaggerate the scale of destruction to create sensational narratives? This volume reassesses the impact of physical destruction on ancient Greek cities and its demographic and economic implications. Addressing methodological issues of interpreting the archaeological evidence for destructions, the volume examines the evidence for the destruction, survival, and recovery of Greek cities. The studies, written by an international group of specialists in archaeology, ancient history, and numismatic, range from Sicily to Asia Minor and Aegean Thrace, and include Athens, Corinth, and Eretria. They highlight the resilience of ancient populations and the recovery of cities in the long term.

Abstract:
Despite being almost ubiquitous within the critically- ill population, vascular access remains a frequent cause of iatrogenic injury, manifested as both procedural complications and later events, such as infection and thrombosis. Untoward events are minimized by expert tuition and meticulous practical technique. Consensus guidelines on training in vascular access are discussed. Vascular access, particularly central catheterization, should not be undertaken lightly. Can a patient be managed without vascular access or can the number of vascular access devices be rationalized? Other routes for drug and fluid administration exist, particularly enterally during the recovery phase. This chapter covers vascular access during critical illness and discusses the development of more advanced techniques.

Abstract:
The process of recovery from severe mental suffering can be seen as a journey through life for which there is no roadmap. The traveler has to find her way without it, sometimes even all alone, sometimes surrounded by fellow-travelers. Starting in the dark, overwhelmed by, e.g. fear or depression or negative voices, every step can be risky, but not moving means staying in the dark. Western society developed the psychiatric system as an answer to psychiatric problems, but does this system support recovery processes? This chapter addresses some ethical issues that come up from a patient perspective on the concept of recovery.

Abstract:
This chapter describes disaster worker protection strategies and health surveillance activities in terms of temporal phases to address disaster safety management before, during, and after a disaster event. The protective strategies discussed in the chapter integrate assessments of on-scene hazards and health or safety impacts and require pre-event planning and coordination across multiple entities. The chapter also addresses the integration of physical, psychological and behavioral health approaches. The chapter addresses the complexities of hazard assessment and control, worker education and training, worker illness and injury surveillance, and access to healthcare services, along with a box on community preparedness. These activities are performed by diverse groups of occupational and environmental health professionals. Various illustrative examples are presented to describe how basic concepts of protection and medical evaluation are applied in specific situations. The U.S. federal system for protecting disaster rescue and recovery workers is described in detail.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews trauma- and stressor-related disorders (TSRDs) as they relate to disaster, defined by the World Health Organization as “a severe disruption, ecological and psychosocial, which greatly exceeds the coping capacity of the affected community.” Some are human-made such as a terrorist event or shooting, while others are due to natural events such as earthquake or hurricane. Humanitarian emergencies are also a class of disasters. Since most but not all people and communities are resilient, the prevalence of TSRDs after disaster and what interventions are optimal is highly relevant to disaster recovery. The chapter discusses the impact of disaster preparedness, factors that influence how communities cope with disaster, and the effect of trauma and stress on populations. It goes on to review factors that influence susceptibility and resilience to disaster trauma, the range of psychological consequences of disaster, and early interventions for TSRDs in response to disaster.

Abstract:
This commentary analyses Article 11.1.13 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning the joint and several obligor's inability to recover contribution from a co-obligor. The contributory claims by the performing obligor against its co-obligors under Art 11.1.10 are separate: each obligor has to render contribution only in the amount of its internal share. Art 11.1.13 provides for an increase in the shares of the obligors not only in the event of the insolvency of one of them, but in all cases where the performing obligor is unable to recover contribution from another obligor. Where contribution cannot be recovered from one or more obligors, the shares of the remaining obligors have to be recalculated. The loss is spread in proportion to the respective shares, not equally.

Abstract:
Epicureanism was the only sect of ancient Western philosophy to deny that the gods were active in the world and influenced the course of human events. Its recovery and reworking in the context of Christian monotheism in Europe was accordingly complex. Along with its absorption and development of its critique of religion, there was pointed resistance to the Epicurean challenge. ‘Religion and superstition’ asks whether Epicurus was really an atheist who denied the existence of the gods, or only a critic of the conventional religious practices and popular beliefs of his time. It also goes on to consider whether religion is obsolete.

It sets out the facts and context of the crisis, the legal positions of the main protagonists (India and Portugal), and the international community’s reactions. It then tests the legality of the Indian intervention against the international legal framework governing the use of force as it stood at the time of the events. The final section examines if, and to what extent, the case has had an impact on the further development of the jus ad bellum, in particular whether it has contributed to an exception to the prohibition on the use of force for the recovery of 'pre-colonial' title.

Abstract:
Recovery from critical illness may not be smooth and uneventful for the patient. Complications and adverse events may beset the patient and lead to intensive care unit (ICU) re-admission. Problems upsetting patients after discharge may be a manifestation of post-intensive care syndrome, new or recurrent organ failure. Avoiding post-ICU complications may be prevented by ensuring a well-planned transition from ICU to the general ward. This may be achieved by minimizing the impact and duration of organ support, defining a structured rehabilitation programme prior to ICU discharge. After discharge a short period spent on an intermediate care unit with higher nursing staff ratios, together with follow-up on the general ward will help identify and treat any new problems. Unfortunately, re-admission may be required to effectively treat some complications. There are recognized risk factors for ICU re-admission and these should be used to warn of the increased likelihood of adverse events to aid appropriate planning avoiding re-admission to ICU.

Abstract:
Muscle weakness in the perioperative period is a common finding and is a risk to patient safety. It can occur as a result of many physiological, pathological, and iatrogenic states. The most common etiology is the use of, misuse of, and failure to reverse neuromuscular blocking drugs (NMBDs). Patients might also present with underlying neuromuscular disorders at baseline or in an exacerbated state after surgery and anesthesia. Muscle weakness can lead to critical events such as respiratory failure and can delay recovery and discharge. The plan for prompt diagnosis and management of a patient with muscle weakness is presented. Knowledge of the pathophysiology, assessment, and treatment of perioperative muscle weakness is essential to ensure optimal patient outcomes.

Abstract:
Severe shoulder pain in the absence of a clear orthopedic cause may be due to acute brachial plexitis. Numbness and tingling in association with weakness and muscle atrophy that cannot be accounted for by a single nerve or nerve root distribution suggests the diagnosis. Additional clues suggesting brachial plexitis include intensity of shoulder pain and antecedent events such as illness, vaccination, injury, unusual physical activity or surgery. The approach to diagnosis of plexitis/plexopathy and appropriate evaluation for etiology are discussed. Management of this condition is conservative, relating to pain control and judicious use of mobilization and strengthening with physical therapy. Prognosis is generally good with recovery of strength occurring in weeks to months.

Abstract:
Earthquakes are a huge global threat. In thirty-six countries, severe seismic risks threaten populations and their increasingly interdependent systems of transportation, communication, energy, and finance. This book provides an examination of how twelve communities in nine countries responded to destructive earthquakes between 1999 and 2015. And many of the book's lessons can also be applied to other large-scale risks. The book sets the global problem of seismic risk in the framework of complex adaptive systems to explore how the consequences of such events ripple across jurisdictions, communities, and organizations in complex societies, triggering unexpected alliances but also exposing social, economic, and legal gaps. It assesses how the networks of organizations involved in response and recovery adapted and acted collectively after the twelve earthquakes it examines. It describes how advances in information technology enabled some communities to anticipate seismic risk better and to manage response and recovery operations more effectively, decreasing losses. Finally, the book shows why investing substantively in global information infrastructure would create shared awareness of seismic risk and make post-disaster relief more effective and less expensive. The result is a landmark study of how to improve the way we prepare for and respond to earthquakes and other disasters in our ever-more-complex world.

Abstract:
The Crimean War was a watershed event in Russia; it transformed government and society and ushered in the Great Reforms. Russian subjects mobilized to support the home front came out of the war with an expectation of reciprocity; serfs wanted their freedom, while other social estates saw the potential of civil society. In Crimea and the larger province of Tauride, the war created profoundly negative change. Violence disassembled landscapes and altered topography. It remapped roads, and communication networks. War destroyed industry and agriculture. Most significantly, punitive civilian policies combined with the failure of recovery programs led the mass migration of Nogai and Crimean Tatars. The Russian government resettled Christian populations in the spaces vacated by emigrating Tatars and remade the distant borderland into its own image. Crimea never recovered from the Crimean War. Rather, mass scale violence transformed Crimea.
