Abstract Introduction Nearly half of the U.S. veterans are over 65 years of age. Older veterans are at higher risk for mental health (MH) conditions, which are associated with increased mortality and health care costs. Given the deficit of specialty-trained geriatric providers, we are conducting a Quality Improvement initiative to improve MH services for older veterans at Minneapolis Veterans Affairs Health Care System. Our first step is to understand the demographic and diagnostic characteristics of veterans referred for geriatric MH specialty treatment. Materials and Method We conducted a retrospective chart review of demographics and psychiatric diagnoses in veterans seen for outpatient geriatric MH intake between May 1, 2011 and April 30, 2016. We used chi-square and Spearman’s rho tests to examine age, diagnoses, and service-time era variables. Results 1,059 veterans were evaluated, average age of 73.5 years. Depressive (47%), neurocognitive (42%), and anxiety disorders (22%) were the most common MH conditions. Vietnam veterans showed higher prevalence of depressive (56%), post-traumatic stress (11%), and alcohol use (10%) disorders. World War II veterans showed higher prevalence of neurocognitive disorders (71%). Neurocognitive disorder prevalence was significantly correlated with age. Conclusions Prevalence and comorbidity of major MH conditions is high in veterans referred for geriatric MH services. Future work will examine challenges faced by non-specialty providers in caring for older veterans, with the goal of developing targeted educational and clinical interventions to better address aging veterans’ MH needs.

Abstract Introduction To evaluate the long-term refractive results of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) performed by the military in a veteran population. Materials and Methods Three Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospital sites (Puget Sound, Buffalo, and Washington D.C.) obtained IRB approval for this multi-center study. Comprehensive ophthalmologic assessment including refraction and keratometry were obtained at the time of the long-term VA examination and compared to the patients’ postoperative military records. Results Eighty patients (160 eyes) enrolled in this study. At the time of treatment, patients were 21–52 years of age. Long-term post-operative data was available from 4 to 17 years post-operatively. Fifteen percent of the treatment types were LASIK and 85% PRK. At the time of their military post-operative exam (range 3–14 months, mean 4 months), 82% of patients had uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of 20/20 or better, and their average manifest refraction was −0.08 D (SD ± 0.48 D). At the time of the long-term ophthalmological exam at the VA medical centers (range 4–11 years, mean of 8.2 years), 49% of patients had an UCVA of 20/20 or better and an average manifest refraction was −0.64 D (SD ± 0.69 D). Conclusion This is the first long-term study evaluating refractive surgery outcomes up to 17 years in a military population. Our study demonstrates safety after refractive surgery in the military with less than 0.1D increase in myopia per year and strong keratometric stability. Other changes in the eye may be the likely cause for this observed mild refractive shift.

ABSTRACT Introduction Although traumatic brain injury (TBI) is known to cause many visual problems, the correlation between the extent of severe visual acuity loss (SVAL) and severity of TBI has not been widely explored. In this retrospective analysis, combined information from Department of Defense (DoD)/Veterans Affairs ocular injury and TBI repositories were used to evaluate the relationship between chronic SVAL, TBI, ocular injuries, and associated ocular sequelae for U.S. service members serving between 2001 and 2015. Materials and Methods The Defense and Veterans Eye Injury and Vision Registry (DVEIVR) is an initiative led by the DoD and Veterans Affairs that consists of clinical and related data for service members serving in theater since 2001. The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center (DVBIC) is the DoD’s office for tracking TBI data in the military and maintains data on active-duty service members with a TBI diagnosis since 2000. Longitudinal data from these 2 resources for encounters between February 2001 and October 2015 were analyzed to understand the relation between SVAL, and TBI while adjusting for ocular covariates such as open globe injury (OGI), disorders of the anterior segment and disorders of the posterior segment in a logistic regression model. TBI cases in DVEIVR were identified using DVBIC data and classified according to International Statistical Classification of Diseases criteria established by DVBIC. Head trauma and other open head wounds (OOHW) were also included. SVAL cases in DVEIVR were identified using both International Statistical Classification of Diseases criteria for blindness and low vision as well as visual acuity test data recorded in DVEIVR. Results Data for a total of 25,193 unique patients with 88,996 encounters were recorded in DVEIVR from February, 2001 to November, 2015. Of these, 7,217 TBI and 1,367 low vision cases were identified, with 638 patients experiencing both. In a full logistic model, neither UTBI nor differentiated TBI (DTBI, ie, mild, moderate, severe, penetrating, or unclassified) were significant risk factors for SVAL although ocular injuries (disorders of the anterior segment, disorders of the posterior segment, and OGI) and OOHW were significant. Conclusion Any direct injury to the eye or head risks SVAL but the location and severity will modify that risk. After adjusting for OGIs, OOHW and their sequelae, TBI was found to not be a significant risk factor for SVAL in patients recorded in DVEIVR. Further research is needed to explore whether TBI is associated with more moderate levels of vision acuity loss.

Abstract Introduction In response to a strong focus on suicide prevention for all veterans, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) recently revised policy to provide emergency mental healthcare for veterans who received Other Than Honorable (OTH) discharges from the military. This current study takes a preliminary step toward identifying demographic, historic, military, clinical, and social characteristics of veterans with OTH discharges. Materials and Methods N = 1,172 Iraq/Afghanistan-era veterans were evaluated between 2005 and 2016 in the multi-site VA Mid-Atlantic Mental Illness, Research, Education and Clinical Center (MIRECC) Study of Post-Deployment Mental Health (PDMH Study). Results Veterans with OTH discharges constituted 2.7% of our sample, approximating the estimated rate in the overall U.S. veteran population. Compared to veterans discharged under honorable conditions, veterans with OTH discharges were more likely to be younger and have greater odds of reporting family history of drug abuse and depression. Further, veterans with OTH discharges reported a lower level of social support and were more likely to be single, endorse more sleep problems, score higher on measures of drug misuse, have a history of incarceration, and meet diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder. A subsequent matching analysis provided further evidence of the association between OTH discharge and two risk factors: drug misuse and incarceration. Conclusion These findings elucidate potential factors associated with veterans with OTH discharges, particularly substance abuse and criminal justice involvement. Results also indicate higher incidence of risk factors that often accompany suicidal ideation and should be a highlighted component of healthcare delivery to this vulnerable cohort of veterans.

Abstract Introduction In 2017, over 75,000 cataract surgeries were performed within the Veterans Health Administration System (VHA). Previous reports of outcomes of cataract surgery in veterans include patients with pre-existing ocular disease, which can affect vision. To exclude the confounding factor of pre-existing ocular comorbidities, we investigated the long-term visual outcomes and complications associated with small incision cataract surgery performed on veterans without any pre-existing eye disease. Materials and Methods Institutional Review Board approved cohort study with detailed retrospective chart review of all phacoemulsification (small incision) cataract surgeries performed at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Washington D.C. over 11 years, including all pre-and postoperative visits until postoperative month 12. Results A total of 1,513 consecutive surgical cases without any pre-existing ocular disease except the cataract were included. Vision improved significantly after cataract surgery compared to the preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (p = 0.0001) and remained stable over the first intra- and postoperative year. All eyes without complicated surgery and 99.1% of eyes with complications achieved 20/40 or better final vision postoperatively. The most common intra-and postoperative complications were vitreous loss (3.1%) and cystoid macular edema (CME; 1.4%). Patients with complications achieved final mean BCVA of 0.04 (20/22, vitreous loss) and 0.06 (20/23, CME) mean logMAR (Snellen). Conclusion Analysis of 11 years of small incision cataract surgery in eyes without pre-existing ocular disease within the VHA showed significant improvement in vision and stability 12 months after uncomplicated and complicated surgery in veterans.

Abstract Introduction Peripheral nerve injuries are a leading cause of disability within the Military Health System (MHS) patient population. Many peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are amenable to therapeutic intervention but require a timely diagnosis and prompt referral to a specialty center capable of intervention, as functional outcomes are directly related to the duration between injury and intervention. Even when appropriately identified, PNI management in the MHS is often challenged by the lack of an established pathway for care coordination and a limited awareness of available diagnostic and therapeutic resources. To address these potential shortcomings, the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Peripheral Nerve Program (WRNMMC PNP) in Bethesda, MD, has been established to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary care to peripheral nerve-injured patients across the MHS. Additionally, the WRNMMC PNP provides graduate medical education training in PNI management for multiple residency and fellowship programs, and it facilitates critical peripheral nerve research to advance knowledge within the field. Materials and Methods A retrospective review of all patients evaluated by the WRNMMC PNP between December 2015 and April 2019 was conducted in order to identify pertinent patient demographic information, referral patterns, and PNI etiology data. Results The WRNMMC PNP evaluated 356 patients consisting of active duty, dependents, retirees, and Veterans Affairs patients during the designated study period. These patients were referred by providers from more than nine different specialties from 78 commands across eight countries. The majority of these patients (222 patients) were referred for traumatic PNI. The WRNMMC PNP has also evaluated and treated patients with PNIs stemming from congenital and compressive etiologies. One hundred and one patients referred during this period were treated with surgery, while the remainder were managed through nonoperative means. Conclusions The WRNMMC PNP facilitates comprehensive, patient-centered care for PNI patients within the MHS. Moreover, the program helps to prepare the next generation of providers for evaluating and treating PNI patients through its involvement with graduate medical education training. It also conducts critical peripheral nerve research and lays the foundation for collaborations with other institutions involved with peripheral nerve research. In the years ahead, the WRNMMC PNP aims to expand its outreach and capabilities within the MHS through more expansive use of telemedicine consultation and the establishment of satellite peripheral nerve clinic sites.

The primary intent of this paper is to examine personnel perceptions of the leadership style of the executive director of a medical center. This study is significant because leadership is the cornerstone of every organization. Based on the responses given, it was found that employees perceived the executive director's leadership style as autocratic. Also, a majority of the respondents favored the director's leadership style, and felt it to be beneficial to the organization. They stated that the supervisory channels are clearly identified. Relative to job satisfaction, and the issue of whether or not enough time is allowed for the completion of assignments, a large percentage of the respondents indicated that they liked their jobs, even though there were some employees who said they did not have enoueh tirr,e to complete their work. This study utilizes both primary and secondary data sources. The primary source consists of a seventeen-item questionnaire administered to fifty-two of the sixty-five staff members at the medical center. The secondary sources used were books, research journals, and a United States Health and Human Services Continuation Grant for Community Health Centers. Recommendations to improve the quality of work-life at the center are offered.

This study analyzed whether African American students in the Atlanta University Center schools were knowledgeable about public health policies and programs concerning abused and neglected children. Two hundred and one (201) participants were selected utilizing convenience sampling. The study surveyed males and females of which 91% were African American students. A survey questionnaire was utilized to collect data. The findings of the study indicated that a majority or 57.2% of the students were not knowledgeable about public health policies for abused and neglected children. However, a majority of the students indicated that they were knowledgeable about public health problems and programs for this population. A majority or 84.1% indicated that they were not abused and neglected as children, but a significant percentage or 15.9% indicated that they were abused and neglected. When the chi square test for significance was applied, the null hypothesis was accepted indicating that there was no statistically significant evidence at the .05 level of probability that the students were abused and neglected when they were children.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the continuous improvement process of the Tennessee Center for Performance Excellence (TNCP). Results of surveys conducted annually by the TNCPE from postapplicants provided data from the state award applicants. Their responses offered indicators of satisfaction among different industry sectors (education, government, healthcare, manufacturing, nonprofit, and service) with the TNCPE services (criteria booklet, feedback report, site visit policy, TNCPE staff, and team of examiners). The survey data were obtained from the TNCPE office in Nashville, Tennessee in which award applicants were provided a series of survey questions. These questions involved the overall award program and the site visit experiences. Within the program award, data included 26 applicant responses while the site visit surveys included 107 applicant responses. In addition, an alpha level of .05 was used for all statistical tests. The major conclusions were: (1) there are differences in the industry sectors with the length of the site visit, team of examiners' team leader's leadership, and the clarity of the feedback report (control vs. influence). Other tests were not statistically significant.

Advances in medical technology have altered the need for certain types of surgery to be performed in traditional inpatient hospital settings. Less invasive surgical procedures allow a growing number of medical treatments to take place on an outpatient basis. Hospitals face growing competition from ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). The competitive threats posed by ASCs are important, given that inpatient surgery has been the cornerstone of hospital services for over a century. Additional research is needed to understand how surgical volume shifts between and within acute care general hospitals (ACGHs) and ASCs. This study investigates how medical technology within the hospital industry is changing medical services delivery. The main purposes of this study are to (1) test Clayton M. Christensen’s theory of disruptive innovation in health care, and (2) examine the effects of disruptive innovation on appendectomy, cholecystectomy, and bariatric surgery (ACBS) utilization. Disruptive innovation theory contends that advanced technology combined with innovative business models—located outside of traditional product markets or delivery systems—will produce simplified, quality products and services at lower costs with broader accessibility. Consequently, new markets will emerge, and conventional industry leaders will experience a loss of market share to “non-traditional” new entrants into the marketplace. The underlying assumption of this work is that ASCs (innovative business models) have adopted laparoscopy (innovative technology) and their unification has initiated disruptive innovation within the hospital industry. The disruptive effects have spawned shifts in surgical volumes from open to laparoscopic procedures, from inpatient to ambulatory settings, and from hospitals to ASCs. The research hypothesizes that: (1) there will be larger increases in the percentage of laparoscopic ACBS performed than open ACBS procedures; (2) ambulatory ACBS will experience larger percent increases than inpatient ACBS procedures; and (3) ASCs will experience larger percent increases than ACGHs. The study tracks the utilization of open, laparoscopic, inpatient and ambulatory ACBS. The research questions that guide the inquiry are: 1. How has ACBS utilization changed over this time? 2. Do ACGHs and ASCs differ in the utilization of ACBS? 3. How do states differ in the utilization of ACBS? 4. Do study findings support disruptive innovation theory in the hospital industry? The quantitative study employs a panel design using hospital discharge data from 2004 and 2009. The unit of analysis is the facility. The sampling frame is comprised of ACGHs and ASCs in Florida and Wisconsin. The study employs exploratory and confirmatory data analysis. This work finds that disruptive innovation theory is an effective model for assessing the hospital industry. The model provides a useful framework for analyzing the interplay between ACGHs and ASCs. While study findings did not support the stated hypotheses, the impact of government interventions into the competitive marketplace supports the claims of disruptive innovation theory. Regulations that intervened in the hospital industry facilitated interactions between ASCs and ACGHs, reducing the number of ASCs performing ACBS and altering the trajectory of ACBS volume by shifting surgeries from ASCs to ACGHs.

Imagine a world where someone’s personal information is constantly compromised, where federal government entities AKA Big Brother always knows what anyone is Googling, who an individual is texting, and their emoticons on Twitter. Government entities have been doing this for years; they never cared if they were breaking the law or their moral compass of human dignity. Every day the Federal government blatantly siphons data with programs from the original ECHELON to the new series like PRISM and Xkeyscore so they can keep their tabs on issues that are none of their business; namely, the personal lives of millions. Our allies are taking note; some are learning our bad habits, from Government Communications Headquarters’ (GCHQ) mass shadowing sharing plan to America’s Russian inspiration, SORM. Some countries are following the United States’ poster child pose of a Brave New World like order of global events. Others like Germany are showing their resolve in their disdain for the rise of tyranny. Soon, these new found surveillance troubles will test the resolve of the American Constitution and its nation’s strong love and tradition of liberty. Courts are currently at work to resolve how current concepts of liberty and privacy apply to the current conditions facing the privacy of society. It remains to be determined how liberty will be affected as well; liberty for the United States of America, for the European Union, the Russian Federation and for the people of the World in regards to the extent of privacy in today’s blurred privacy expectations.

AbstractWhile far-reaching intellectual influences changed the face of sociology in the 1980s, the development of sociology in the 1990s was first and foremost shaped by a concrete social and political transformation, the fall of the Berlin Wall. Soon after the German reunification, East German sociology almost entirely disappeared and West German sociology extended to the East. The triumph of capitalist society fostered a brief comeback of modernization theory. As the system change came along with severe social problems, theories and research projects focusing on social exclusion, precarious work, and xenophobia moved to the center stage of sociological thinking. The first decade of this century again brought about major changes for society and sociology. Market logic increasingly dominated social and education policy; economic thinking and its involvement in political affairs was on the rise and may have contributed to a marginalization of the influence of sociology on policy making. Characteristic is a further specialization and differentiation, visible through the multiplication of special sociologies. The landscape of sociological theory in Germany continued to change: Earlier, grand theories were dominant, whereas nowadays a trend toward sociological diagnoses of contemporary society can be observed. Overall, contemporary sociology in Germany can be characterized by the following features: (1) historically and philosophically informed sociological theory has always been and still is important, (2) German sociology lacks self-confidence compared to US-American sociology, (3) German sociology has a critical attitude and a strong tradition of public sociology, (4) self-critical debates and internal controversies have always existed and still persist in the field of German sociology. Most recently, this could be observed in the splitting off of the Academy of Sociology from the German Sociological Association and the accompanying debates.

Taking the means-ends approach to e-governance service quality the authors adopt the Parasuraman's ‘Gap Model' to evaluate the antecedents of service performance in an Indian context of government-to-citizen (G2C) service deployment under the national e-governance plan (NeGP) of India. This e-governance initiative in India has been implemented at multiple tiers of the government that integrates administration and service processes at different levels that includes center, state, district, block, and further to the lowest level of governance unit (Panchayat). The authors acknowledge five levels of potential service discrepancies across the service delivery chain, from designing the service policy to achieving citizen satisfaction. These are service conceptualization, service design, service capacity, service offering, and service consumption. Corresponding to these discrepancies, the authors explain six types of potential gaps in e-governance G2C service context: Assessment Gap, Design Gap, Capacity Gap, External Communication Gap, Delivery Gap, and Service Gap. Preliminary strategies to close these gaps are also proposed.

This chapter examines the meaning and the continuing significance of prerogative powers. Prerogative powers are those that were originally exercised by the Monarch before the modern parliamentary system was established. While most prerogative powers have now been replaced by statutory powers, prerogative powers remain important in some contexts, especially in relation to the conduct of the United Kingdom’s foreign affairs. In this context the decision of the UK Supreme Court in R (Miller) v Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union is of particular importance. The chapter is organized as follows. Section 2 considers the various legal foundations on which central government ministers may base their actions and compares prerogative and statutory powers. Section 3 examines prerogative power—a source of power possessed only by ministers in UK government and the monarch—in more detail. Section 4 considers the progress towards the reform of ministerial prerogatives.

This chapter explicates the beginning of the Institute of Politics (IOP). It notes the restructured Council on Foreign Relations began publishing Foreign Affairs, which would eventually become the global embodiment of elite American internationalism. In addition, the chapter discusses Harry Garfield's efforts in starting the IOP at Williamstown. The perceived success of the 1921 session went a long way toward establishing the IOP as a leading center for the study of international relations in the United States. The chapter highlights the IOP's role in advancing Wilsonian internationalism among the general public and the burgeoning scholarly community of international relations specialists.

In the mid-1950s the AJC took a heightened interest in Palestinian affairs. Arab spokesman Fayez Sayegh becomes the focal point of this chapter, opening it up onto the broad pro-Arab public relations effort that he helped lead during the 1950s. Committed to Arab nationalism and Palestinian rights, Sayegh’s voice was amplified by American Protestant groups sympathetic to the Palestinian plight, especially the American Friends of the Middle East (AFME), a secretly CIA-sponsored organization. In 1956, Sayegh became acting director of the Arab Information Center in New York, a new Arab League public relations effort that, alongside AFME, led a major push to highlight Palestinian rights issues in America. The AJC felt that this pro-Arab public relations push threatened American Jews, endangering Jewish-Christian ties. Meanwhile, far-right domestic antisemitic groups cited Israel’s mistreatment of the Palestinians in their material and attempted cooperation with the Arab Information Center, which Sayegh tried to prevent. The AJC acknowledged that Sayegh avoided antisemitism and even met with him. Yet by 1958, the AJC began to feel that any sort of Palestine advocacy could potentially increase antisemitism, meaning that distinctions between anti-Zionism and antisemitism would be difficult, if not impossible, to maintain.

Few prior studies have addressed the political impact of the Internet on civic engagement in rural areas. This preliminary study aims to explore the connection between Internet use and civic engagement of rural Internet users. Based on the surveys implemented by the China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), the authors find that using the Internet does enhance the level of civic engagement among rural Internet users in China. However, better use of the Internet faces some obstacles, too. They are the young age of rural users and the limited Net bandwidth. Implications of these obstacles are discussed. The chapter concludes that, under certain circumstances, there is great potential for Chinese rural Internet users to become more actively engaged in public affairs in the future.

Not long after St. Louisans entered into the new year of 1969, the final year of a decade of significant social upheaval at the local and national level, thousands of public-housing tenants struck against the St. Louis Housing Authority (SLHA). Together, the black working-class women whose lives were at the center of the debate over the future of the city staged one of the largest and earliest demonstrations of its kind. National news outlets provided coverage, politicians at the local, state, and national level weighed in and amended or adopted policies as a result, and several strike leaders emerged as national figures. While they issued numerous demands to city officials, above all, dissidents called for dignity and control. Drawing upon support from key leaders, public sympathy, and the sustainable political communities that they had built over time, strikers demanded the redistribution of power and a greater allocation of resources to manage their own affairs and become key brokers in decision-making processes. Their hard-hitting politics and critical views about municipal authority and governance were deeply rooted in their insistence on making black working-class women’s survival a matter of public concern....

Abstract In 1998 the Appalachian Partnership for Welfare Reform (APWR) was established as a collaborative, applied-research, and technical-assistance program funded by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) and administered by the Institute for Local Government Administration and Rural Development (ILGARD) at Ohio University’s Voinovich Center for Leadership and Public Affairs. After five years as a grant-funded project focused on implementing policy changes in the areas of public assistance administration and workforce development at the county level in Ohio Appalachia, the APWR became a statewide technical assistance contract between the ODJFS Office of Family Stability (OFS) and ILGARD focused on strengthening performance measurement and accountability structures throughout the state of Ohio. The primary aim of APWR was to help enhance administrative infrastructure and capacity among the 29 APWR county agency partners implementing welfare reform throughout Ohio Appalachia. Among our principle activities, developing evaluation and performance measurement capacity was one of the APWR’s biggest and most interesting challenges. This chapter describes the historical and social context of the APWR and outlines the Ongoing Performance Measurement and Management (OPM&M) framework that we used to develop processes intended to enhance evaluation capacity in this Central Appalachian setting.

This research paper provides an outline of corporate governance in Romania and the impact of public affairs and lobbying on the subject. We endeavoured to stress these two notions as sustainable parts of sound business practices and methods, as well as the development of improved strategies for achieving macroeconomic growth. The lobbying effort contributes to the maintenance and improvement of public confidence in democratic institutions and the representation process of public politics. In addition, professional lobbying and interest groups are required to always act ethically and morally in their dealings with all parties involved. There is now a lobbying law in Romania, although it is simply a draft and lawmakers provide no indications of future legislation. As we will analyse in this research paper, the lobbying effort in Brussels, the center of the European Union, is a highly active one, acknowledged by European Union officials as essential to the democratic process.

Through the state property concessions issued by the patrimonial offices of the Kingdom of Sardinia in the modern age we possess a very interesting picture of the settlement and monumental emergencies of the city of Oristano, capital of the Kingdom of Arborea in the Middle Ages and then simply royal city of the Hispanic Monarchy. The type of document lends itself easily to the reconstruction of the settlement experience through the type of property indicated and its boundaries (streets, squares, monuments, fortifications) and who lives there. In this essay we will examine the policy of patrimonial officials at the beginning of the 17th century regarding the land granted in emphyteusis near the walls, in a strip that normally had to be left free for military needs.State properties in the city and its territory were managed by the royal prosecutor, who had expertise in the patrimonial field. Between the end of the fifteenth century and the beginning of the sixteenth century, with the transformation of Oristano into a royal city, the city's emphyteutic concessions mostly concerned the intramural area surrounding the royal palace, indicating a clear desire to deconstruct the buildings and areas of the secular center of judge them and make them forget.Through the emphyteutic concessions of the early seventeenth century, however, the monarchy and the royal officials themselves were not interested in financing the maintenance work of the fortifications, allowing some private individuals to clutter the internal space close to the curtain wall, provided that they did not leave deteriorate the real estate entrusted to them but highlighting a patronage practice in the management of public affairs. At the same time, it was the citizens of Oristano themselves who, following a very widespread practice, exploited the spaces reserved for walkways without authorization or exploited the moat full of debris for their own gain.

As the research arm of Wildlife Services, a program within the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), NWRC develops methods and information to address human-wildlife conflicts related to agriculture, human health and safety, property damage, invasive species, and threatened and endangered species. The NWRC is the only Federal research facility in the United States devoted entirely to the development of methods for effective wildlife damage management, and it’s research authority comes from the Animal Damage Control Act of 1931. The NWRC’s research priorities are based on nationwide research needs assessments, congressional directives, APHIS Wildlife Services program needs, and stakeholder input. The Center is committed to helping resolve the ever-expanding and changing issues associated with human-wildlife conflict management and remains well positioned to address new issues through proactive efforts and strategic planning activities. NWRC research falls under four principal areas that reflect APHIS’ commitment to “protecting agricultural and natural resources from agricultural animal and plant health threats, zoonotic diseases, invasive species, and wildlife conflicts and diseases”. In addition to the four main research areas, the NWRC maintains support functions related to animal care, administration, information transfer, archives, quality assurance, facility development, and legislative and public affairs.
