On the Value of Measuring Recent Drug Use by Self-Reports and Urinalysis in Clinical Trials
Background: Valid measurement of drug use in patients enrolled in clinical trials that treat substance use disorder is vital to determine the trial’s outcome. Self-reports are often used but their validity has been studied with mixed results. Urinalysis may sometimes be employed as an alternative or supplement to self-reports. Objectives: This study examined how estimating drug use by either method would affect the results from a randomized clini…
Abortive Avoidance
The production of medicoethical misconduct
Even as Wilkie Collins’s Heart and Science continues in the tradition of cautionary tales of medicine and science, it also integrates nineteenth-century discussions of medical ethics, vivisection and women, further building on earlier criticisms of scientific hubris. By indicting a fictional medical doctor and his methodology, Heart and Science depicts the extremes of good and bad, ethical and unethical medicine—whether the doctor can care, and n…

“Initium mihi operis Servius Galba iterum T. Vinius consules …”
So begins Tacitus' famous account ( Hist . 1.1ff.) of the year of the four emperors and, with it, the major phase in the author's career as a historian. Both beginnings, like so much else in Tacitus, are at least partially grounded in Sallustian precedent. The sentence itself, so we are informed, is an echo of the res populi Romani M. Lepido Q. Catulo consulibus ac deinde...gestas composui with which Sallust began his own Histories . Both works s…
Beginnings in Classical Literature
The ways in which literary works begin have proved fascinating to readers and critics at least since Aristophanes. This collection of essays gives life to a topic of perennial interest by presenting a variety of original readings in nearly all the major genres of Greek and Latin literature. The subjects of these essays range from narrative voices in the opening of the Odyssey to ideological reasons for Tacitus' choice of a beginning in the Histor…

The Ideology of Old Age and Death in American History
that have engaged anthropologists, psychologists, and sociologists for almost 30 years. Swept along by a new spirit of inquiry into subjects commonly passed over in silence, the logic of social history at last suggests that-like childhood, adolescence, women, and the family-old age and death also deserve historical attention. Yet this logic artificially approaches its subjects as if they existed in discrete, isolated categories and places them in…
Studies in Latin Poetry
Studies in Latin Poetry
This volumes begins with a long essay on the nature and structure of Saturnian verse. This is followed by two studies of Plautus (the Menaechmi seen as a comedy of errors and the prologue of the Poenulus as an editor's conflation of several scripts). There is an essay on nine graffito epigrams from Pompeii, and an analysis of the poetic quality of the scientific passages in the De Rerum Natura. Catullus 64 is studied as an epitome of the whole ag…
