Vascular age as a key for a team-based approach to manage blood pressure bridging community pharmacists and primary healthcare physicians—The Together trial
Background: Highlighting arterial stiffness in Community Pharmacies (CPh) has been met with considerable interest in Portugal, Austria, and Spain. TOGETHER aims to evaluate whether empowering hypertensive subjects by determining blood pressure (BP) and vascular aging in CPh increases hypertension (HTN) control, while establishing paths of lasting cooperation between General Practitioners (GP) and CPh. Methods: TOGETHER is a cluster-randomized, pr…
New measurements indicate that natural geologic methane emissions from microseepage in the Michigan Basin are likely negligible
The magnitude of natural geologic methane (CH4) emissions to the atmosphere (including emissions of fossil CH4 from offshore and onshore gas and oil seeps, diffuse microseepage, mud volcanoes, volcanic vents, and geothermal areas) is highly uncertain. The largest component of geologic emissions is thought to be microseepage, which is the diffuse flux of CH4 from soils across large areas of productive hydrocarbon basins. The accuracy of existing b…
Fascism in America
Has fascism arrived in America? In this pioneering book, Gavriel D. Rosenfeld and Janet Ward have gathered experts to survey the history of fascism in the United States. Although the US established a staunch anti-fascist reputation by defeating the Axis powers in World War II, the unsettling truth is that fascist ideas have long been present within American society. Since the election of Donald Trump as President in 2016, scholars have debated wh…

Mental Health of Staff at Correctional Facilities in the United States During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Background Although United States (US) correctional workers (correctional officers and health care workers at correctional institutions) have experienced unprecedented stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, to date, there are no systematic data on the mental health impact of COVID-19 on correctional workers. Objective To determine the perceived mental health burden of the COVID-19 pandemic on correctional workers and to explore the relationship bet…
Investigating methane emissions from geologic microseepage in Western New York State, United States
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas and a key player in atmospheric chemistry. Important uncertainties remain in the global atmospheric methane budget, with natural geologic emissions being one of the particularly uncertain terms. In recent bottom-up studies, geologic emissions have been estimated to comprise up to 10% of the global budget (40–60 Teragrams of methane per year, Tg CH4 yr–1). In contrast, top-down constraints from 14C of methane i…

The current background information and detailed discussion of the data can be found in ESC CardioMed - Section 44 Systemic hypertension ... ... Guidelines summarize and evaluate available evidence with the aim of assisting health professionals in selecting the best management strategies for an individual patient with a given condition. Guidelines and their recommendations should facilitate decision making of health professionals in their daily pr…
Rauwolfia
Many recent botanical articles on the medicinal plant Rauwolfia serpentina and on its therapeutic uses inform us that Mahatma Gandhi regularly took it because of its tranquilising effects; some go so far as to suggest that his peacefulness (and even the Indian non-violent struggle against the British colonisers) could be attributed to it. However, there is little evidence to support this. Although Gandhi did occasionally take some drops of an inf…

Ashwin Desai and Goolam Vahed. The South African Gandhi
When students and staff at the University of Ghana in Accra insisted in the fall of 2016 that a statue of Mahatma Gandhi, a gift from the Indian government, be removed only a few months after it was installed, the controversy had all the makings of a potential international incident. A group of professors had declared Gandhi a racist, claiming that he denigrated blacks as being inferior to his Indian co-nationalists while he was fighting for Indi…

Welche Konsequenzen hat dies für unser Selbstverständnis (unsere >Identität Bildungskrise<, die tradierte Bildungseinrichtungen wie Schule (siehe PISA) und Universität (siehe Bologna-Reformen) trifft und die Frage nach dem Stellenwert, nach neuen Leitwerten für diese Institutionen aufwirft.

Die Ordnung der Rechtsberatung in Deutschland nach 1945
Im Jahr 2007 fand ein außergewöhnlich bedeutendes rechtspolitisches Gesetzgebungsvorhaben seinen Abschluss: die Reform des Rechtsberatungsrechts. Es hat nach den Worten der damaligen Bundesjustizministerin, Brigitte Zypries, wie kaum ein anderes »im Mittelpunkt des kritischen Interesses der Öffentlichkeit gestanden«. Thomas Weber untersucht die Entstehungsgeschichte des 2008 in Kraft getretenen Rechtsdienstleistungsgesetzes und die vorangegangene…
Medialität als Grenzerfahrung
Seit den 80er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts lässt sich in Filmen wie »Matrix«, »Strange Days« oder »Videodrome« ein neues, originäres Thema entdecken: Wunschmedien - also futurische Medien, die entweder utopistisch erträumt oder dystopisch befürchtet werden. Bei der Analyse der Darstellung dieser Medien zeigt sich ein medientheoretisches Paradoxon: Wenn Medien die Tendenz haben, hinter ihrem Funktionieren zu verschwinden, sozusagen unsichtbar zu we…
H ungarian N onviolent R esistance against A ustria and I ts P lace in the H istory of N onviolence
The Hungarian nonviolent resistance campaign against the Austrian absolutist rule in the 1850s and 1860s has been credited with being the “first mass or corporate form of non‐violent resistance,” yet it has received little scholarly attention in the nonviolence literature. In its usual portrayal, the movement is epitomized as a forerunner of Gandhi's later mass satyagraha campaigns, and its leader Ferenc Deák as a prototype Mahatma. In reality, t…

The impact of Gandhi on the development of Johan Galtung's peace research
Johan Galtung is often referred to as the ‘father of modern peace research’. His writings, especially his work on structural violence, which is now one of the concepts underpinning the discipline, are very reminiscent of some of Gandhi's key doctrines. This may be coincidental or there may be a causal link. While Galtung freely acknowledges the strong influence of Gandhi on his thought, others seem to downplay or miss the Gandhian connection. In …
Nonviolence Is Who? Gene Sharp and Gandhi
There appear to be two approaches to nonviolence. They have been termed “principled,” where emphasis is on human harmony and a moral rejection of violence and coercion, and “pragmatic,” where conflict is seen as normal and the rejection of violence as an effective way of challenging power. Failure to distinguish between the two strands can lead to a diminution in the effectiveness of nonviolent action and can cause confusion among the audience. T…
Rethinking the Middle/Upper Paleolithic Transition [and Comments and Replies]
This paper critically examines previous statements concerning the nature of the Middle/Upper Paleolithic transition in Western Europe. Mellars's overview of the transition in southwestern France forms the point of departure for discussion. Several of Mellars's contentions are modified in light of methodological weaknesses and recently available data. It is suggested that many observed Middle/Upper Paleolithic differences are best understood with …

Gandhi, Deep Ecology, Peace Research And Buddhist Economics
The central importance of Gandhi to nonviolent activism is widely acknowledged. There are also other significant peace-related bodies of knowledge that have gained such popularity in the West in the relatively recent past that they have changed the directions of thought and have been important in encouraging social movements - yet they have not been analysed in terms of antecedents, especially Gandhian ones. The new environmentalism in the form o…

From Maude Royden's Peace Army to the Gulf Peace Team
From Maude Royden's `Peace Army' in the 1930s to the recent Gulf Peace Team, there has been a rich but little known history of attempted unarmed interpositionary peace-keeping. Most of these initiatives have stalled at the proposal stage primarily because of a lack of money and the absence of international organizational and logistical support. The Gulf Peace Team was perhaps the least well thought through attempt; however, it did manage, for the…
Gandhian Philosophy, Conflict Resolution Theory and Practical Approaches to Negotiation
It is puzzling that links between Gandhian social philosophy and recent conflict resolution/negotiation literature, especially given the latter's Gandhian `flavour', have received so little scholarly attention. While there seems to be no direct causal link between the two bodies of knowledge, conflict resolution literature in the guise of modern problem-solving and win-win (as opposed to power-based and zerosum) approaches leading to integrative …
The Lesson from the Disciples
In the 1970s the Gandhian movement split over fundamental philosophical issues and twenty years later it has not yet recovered. While the generally presented reasons for the decline of the Gandhian movement since Gandhi's death show substantial depth of analysis, they nevertheless overlook one essential aspect. They focus on issues such as whether a movement that was effective against a specific enemy, for example the British, can continue when t…
Anti-Semitism and Philo-Semitism among the British and German Elites
The article takes the cases of Oxford and Heidelberg universities to compare anti‐Semitism and philo‐Semitism among British and German academic and power elites before the First World War. It discusses whether the view of any qualitative difference between German and British anti‐Semitism is sustainable from a pre‐1914, rather than from a post‐Holocaust perspective. It demonstrates that different approaches to the study of British and German anti…

Is There Still a Chipko Andolan
A BOUT FIFTEEN YEARS AGO India experienced the large-scale emergence of groups, usually led by radicalized middle-class youth or urban intellectuals. These groups drew conventionally apolitical citizens into expressing and fighting for their basic right to participate in the decision making process.
