The Emerging Threat of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Southern Africa - Board On Health Sciences Policy - Bog - National Academies Press - Plusbog.dk

Tuberculosis (TB) kills approximately 4,500 people worldwide every day. While most cases of TB can be treated with antibiotics, some strains have developed drug resistance that makes their treatment more expensive, more toxic and less effective for the patient. The IOM Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation and the Academy of Science of South Africa held a workshop to discuss ways to fight the growing threat of drug-resistant TB.Table of ContentsFront Matter1 Introduction2 The Incidence of Drug-Resistant TB in Southern Africa3 Surveillance and Tracking of Drug-Resistant TB4 Transmission and Infection Control5 Diagnosis of Drug-Resistant TB6 Treatment of Drug-Resistant TB7 Drug-Resistant TB in Children8 Convergence of Science and Policy to Create a Blueprint for ActionReferencesAppendix A: AgendaAppendix B: Report from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) WorkshopAppendix C: Participant Biographies

The New Profile of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Russia - Russian Academy Of Medical Sciences - Bog - National Academies Press - Plusbog.dk

The New Profile of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Russia - Russian Academy Of Medical Sciences - Bog - National Academies Press - Plusbog.dk

An estimated 2 billion people, one third of the global population, are infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes tuberculosis. Spread through the air, this infectious disease killed 1.7 million in 2009, and is the leading killer of people with HIV. Tuberculosis (TB) is also a disease of poverty—the vast majority of tuberculosis deaths occur in the developing world. Exacerbating the devastation caused by TB is the growing threat of drug-resistant forms of the disease in many parts of the world. Drug-resistant tuberculosis presents a number of significant challenges in terms of controlling its spread, diagnosing patients quickly and accurately, and using drugs to treat patients effectively. In Russia in recent decades, the rise of these strains of TB, resistant to standard antibiotic treatment, has been exacerbated by the occurrence of social, political, and economic upheavals. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation, in conjunction with the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences held a workshop to discuss ways to fight the growing threat of drug-resistant TB. The New Profile of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Russia: A Global and Local Perspective: Summary of a Joint Workshop presents information from experts on the nature of this threat and how it can be addressed by exploring various treatment and diagnostic options.

Addressing the Threat of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis - Institute Of Medicine - Bog - National Academies Press - Plusbog.dk

Tuberculosis is one of the leading causes of death in the world today, with 4,500 people dying from the disease every day. Many cases of TB can be cured by available antibiotics, but some TB is resistant to multiple drugs—a major and growing threat worldwide. The Institute of Medicine's Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation hosted a workshop on November 5, 2008, to address the mounting concern of drug-resistant TB. The session brought together a wide range of international experts to discuss what is known and not known about this growing threat, and to explore possible solutions.

Surrealist, Lover, Resistant - Robert Desnos - Bog - Arc Publications - Plusbog.dk

Surrealist, Lover, Resistant - Robert Desnos - Bog - Arc Publications - Plusbog.dk

This extensive and wide-ranging selection comprises the poetry of one of France's most exciting writers of the twentieth century, the surrealist Robert Desnos. Hailed as the ‘prophet’ of the Surrealist movement by André Breton, Desnos was a hugely influential figure across all art forms at the time, and yet today his work completely underrepresented in the English language, with only his children’s poems currently available in English translation. The present volume of nearly 300 poems seeks to redress the balance, moving from youthful, light-hearted material to full-blown surrealism, from poems full of anguish and torment to delightful love poetry, and from whimsical, humorous verses to some of the great poem sequences of the Nazi Occupation period when Desnos was an active resistant.

Facing the Reality of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in India - Development Forum On Drug Discovery - Bog - National Academies Press - Plusbog.dk

Facing the Reality of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in India - Development Forum On Drug Discovery - Bog - National Academies Press - Plusbog.dk

An estimated 8.8 million people fell ill with tuberculosis (TB) in 2010 and 1.4 million died from the disease. Although antibiotics to treat TB were developed in the 1950s and are effective against a majority of TB cases, resistance to these antibiotics has emerged over the years, resulting in the growing spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB. Due to challenges in timely and accurate diagnosis of drug-resistant TB, length and tolerability of treatment regimens, and expense of second-line anti-TB drugs, effectively controlling the disease requires complex public health interventions. The IOM Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation held three international workshops to gather information from local experts around the world on the threat of drug resistant TB and how the challenges it presents can be met. Workshops were held in South Africa and Russia in 2010. The third workshop was held April 18-19, 2011, in New Delhi, India, in collaboration with the Indian National Science Academy and the Indian Council of Medical Research. The aim of the workshop was to highlight key challenges to controlling the spread of drug-resistant strains of TB in India and to discuss strategies for advancing and integrating local and international efforts to prevent and treat drug-resistant TB. This document summarizes the workshop.

Towards a New Russian Work Culture - Gordey Yastrebov - Bog - ibidem-Verlag, Jessica Haunschild u Christian Schon - Plusbog.dk

This innovative book offers a fresh perspective on the national work culture of Russia and the substantial role foreign institutional and cultural impact has had in shaping it. Russia''s contemporary work culture is understood as a national system supplemented by new values and attitudes that have been adopted through the mediation of foreign individuals and corporations or in response to the challenges of Western competition. It is argued that the foreign factor triggers change in the landscape of Russia''s work culture, the scope of which depends on the type of influence. However, there is a certain core of the work culture that remains resistant to any external impact.

Work Want Work - J. A. Smith - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Work Want Work considers in captivating detail how a logic of work has become integral to everything we do, even as the place of formal work has become increasingly precarious. With reference to sociological data, philosophy, political theory, legislation, the testimonies of workers and an eclectic mix of cultural texts – from Lucian Freud to Google, Anthony Giddens to selfies, Jean-Luc Nancy to Amy Winehouse – Pfannebecker and Smith lay out how the capitalism of globalized technologies has put our time, our subjectivities, our experiences and our desires to work in unprecedented ways.As every part of life is colonized by work without securing our livelihoods, new questions need to be asked: whether a nostalgia for work can save us, how ideas of work change conceptions of political community, how employment and unemployment alike have become malemployment , and whether the work of our desire online can be disentangled from capitalist exploitation.The biggest question, at a time when the end of work and a fully automated future are proclaimed by Silicon Valley idealists as well as by social democratic politicians and left-wing theorists, is this: how can we propose a post-work society and culture that we will actually want?

Couple Work, Work with Couples - Eric Smadja - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Couple Work, Work with Couples - Eric Smadja - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Couple Work, Work with Couples provides a new exploration of psychoanalysis with couples. Éric Smadja takes two key approaches, firstly providing a metapsychological exploration of couple work – at intrapsychic-individual, intersubjective and group levels - and investigating love, being in love and the principal structural phases and psychic organisers of couples, then the work of the choice of conjugal object and its historicity. He also introduces and develops useful notions like the inter-transferential neurosis at work at the intersubjective level. Smadja then rethinks psychoanalytic work with couples, with reference to the work of leading French psychoanalysts, group analysts and couple analysts. The book highlights specific features of working with couples, like the creation of a specific analytic situation - “the therapeutic group” - then considers the benefits and expected effects of this kind of work. With clinical material from the author’s work throughout, Couple Work, Work with Couples will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytically informed clinicians working with couples.
