Protection of Indigenous Peoples' Traditional Lands and Exploitation of Natural Resources : The Inter-American Court of Human Rights' Safeguards
The Inter-American Court of Human Rights (I-ACtHR) has developed remarkable jurisprudence for the protection of the right to communal property of indigenous and tribal communities with respect to the ancestral lands that they possess and traditionally used-natural resources, in order to guarantee their cultural and economic survival in the Americas. This article critically analyses the legal regim

Nationalism and Civicness in Contemporary Russia: : Grassroots Mobilization in Defense of Traditional Family Values
The so-called Parents' Movement is a Russian conservative grassroots mobilization against a presumed Western cultural attack on Russian tradition and sovereignty. The primary target is an ongoing legal implementation of the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child, which is conceived of as a Western feint contrived by hostile global agencies and a Russian fifth column of treacherous NGOs and state
The Second Wave : The Urak Lawoi After the Tsunami in Thailand
Urak Lawoi är en ursprungsbefolkning i Andamansjön som bl.a. bor på kända turistöar som Phuket, Phi Phi, Ko Lanta Yai och Ko Lipe utanför Thailands västkust. Deras språk och kultur skiljer sig från övriga thailändares, inte minst ifråga om kunskap att navigera på havet. Att bo på eller vid havet är centralt för deras identitet; det är där de fiskar, samlar föda på stränder och utför sina ritualer.On 26 December 2004, the Urak Lawoi sea people were hit by a huge tsunami that overwhelmed all of Southeast Asia causing the deaths of more than 350,000 people across the region. If the tsunami was the disaster, the “first wave”, the relief efforts and the assistance that came with it became the “second wave”, due to the social and economic changes that followed. The Urak Lawoi have for centuries,

Prehospital Diagnosis and Oxygen Treatment in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
IntroductionPaper I: An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was constructed to identify ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and predict the need for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). Paper II, III and IV: Studies suggest that O2 therapy may be harmful in STEMI patients. We therefore conducted the SOCCER study to evaluate the effects of O2 therapy in STEMI patients.MethodsPaper I: 560 am
No interaction between H2 blockers and isoniazid
Antacids and anticholinergic drugs may delay gastric emptying and cause reduced absorption of isoniazid, but the influence of reduced gastric acidity has not been determined. In the present investigation, the influence of cimetidine and ranitidine on uptake and elimination of isoniazid was determined in six male and seven female healthy volunteers. The group comprised five rapid and eight slow ace
Antiarrhythmic effect of amperozide, a novel psychotropic compound with class III antiarrhythmic properties, on digoxin-induced arrhythmias in the guinea-pig
Amperozide is a novel psychotropic compound with specific effect in limbic brain areas. Preliminary findings have also indicated an antiarrhythmic effect in-vitro. Injections of saline, amperozide, melperone, thioridazine, bretylium or lignocaine, were given i.p. to anaesthetized guinea-pigs, which 10 min later were given digoxin s.c. to induce arrhythmia. In a series of control experiments none o
The interaction of erythromycin with theophylline
We have studied the interaction of erythromycin with theophylline. We gave ten healthy volunteers theophylline as an intravenous loading dose (5 mg X kg-1) over 1 h, followed by a maintenance infusion (0.5 mg X kg-1 X h-1) for 5 h. A second infusion of theophylline was given after 9 days of treatment with 1 g erythromycin base daily, and the concentrations of theophylline were determined during th
Interaction between isoniazid and theophylline
Metabolic interactions between theophylline and several other drugs have been described in a number of studies. They may be of importance because of the narrow therapeutic range of theophylline. A significant risk for interactions has been considered to exist only with drugs metabolized by oxidative enzyme systems, and thus is not expected to occur with isoniazid. However, an increased clearance o
Liquid chromatographic determination of diltiazem and its metabolites using trans isomers as internal standards, with dynamic modification of the solid phase by addition of an amine to the mobile phase
A selective and sensitive reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous analysis of diltiazem and its five metabolites known to occur in man is presented. Different C18 columns are compared. The influences of organic co-solvent, pH, ionic strength and the addition of various amines are studied. The use of trans-diltiazem as internal standard is advocated. UV detect
Pharmacokinetic comparison of two models of endocarditis prophylaxis with amoxycillin
From studies on prophylaxis against experimental streptococcal endocarditis using amoxycillin in a single dose, it has been deduced that serum concentrations above 0.12 mg/l should be maintained for at least 10 h after antibiotic administration. Since concentrations above this level are reported to occur following an oral dose of 3 g of amoxycillin, this doses for prophylaxis has become widely acc
