Setting: Supportive living and assisted living memory care facilities in a rural West-Central Illinois county. Objectives: 1) Evaluate the impact of active pharmacist participation on patient care for residents living in supportive and assisted living facilities, 2) demonstrate feasibility and financial sustainability of rural community pharmacists providing disease state management services, 3) create processes for best practice to expand the clinical role of the community pharmacist Design: Case study. Interventions: Participating residents received disease state management services provided by a community pharmacist as outlined through collaborative practice agreements with local physicians. The disease states managed included hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and warfarin anticoagulation therapy. The pharmacist completed an initial chart review, initial face-to-face visit, subsequent monthly chart reviews, and monthly face-to-face visits with each resident. Results: During the 6-month period of community pharmacist management, 86 face-to-face visits were completed to deliver a median of 5 visits per resident. The pharmacist identified 23 drug therapy problems with recommended solutions communicated to the resident’s primary care provider. Providers accepted 19 of these recommendations, reflecting an 82.6% acceptance rate. Conclusions: Community pharmacists can feasibly implement enhanced clinical services to assist with disease state management of supportive living and assisted living residents in collaboration with physicians. Pharmacists can provide clinical assessment, education and effective communication to optimize medication management and utilization.   Article Type: Case Study

AbstractUsing interviews with former militants and previously unpublished documents, this article traces the genesis and internal dynamics of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (People's Revolutionary Army, ERP) in El Salvador during the early years of its existence (1970–6). This period was marked by the inability of the ERP to maintain internal coherence or any consensus on revolutionary strategy, which led to a series of splits and internal fights over control of the organisation. The evidence marshalled in this case study sheds new light on the origins of the armed Salvadorean Left and thus contributes to a wider understanding of the processes of formation and internal dynamics of armed left-wing groups that emerged from the 1960s onwards in Latin America.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Abstract Hoerl and McCormack demonstrate that although animals possess a sophisticated temporal updating system, there is no evidence that they also possess a temporal reasoning system. This important case study is directly related to the broader claim that although animals are manifestly capable of first-order (perceptually-based) relational reasoning, they lack the capacity for higher-order, role-based relational reasoning. We argue this distinction applies to all domains of cognition.
