Do So

In this commentary, we reflect on Rinaldi and Bekker’s scoping review of the literature on populist radical right (PRR) parties and welfare policies. We argue that their review provides political scientists and healthcare scholars with a firm basis to further explore the relationships between populism and welfare policies in different political systems. In line with the authors, we furthermore (re)emphasize the need for additional empirical inquiries into the relationship between populism and healthcare. But instead of expanding the research agenda suggested – for instance by adding categories or niches in which this relationship can be observed – we would like to challenge some of the premises of the studies conducted and reviewed thus far. We do so by identifying two concerns and by illustrating these concerns with two examples from the Netherlands.

The Relationship

This chapter traces therapeutic holism from German Romanticism through Victorian proponents of cultural education, represented by John Stuart Mill, down to its contemporary manifestation in the work of major literary health humanists like Rita Charon, Cheryl Mattingly, and Kathryn Montgomery Hunter. It also explains the relationship of therapeutic holism to its sibling discourses, New Criticism and Millian liberalism. The former’s holistic, unified work of art parallels the latter’s proper citizen—a whole person whose wholeness is created and restored by cultural education. These linked discourses helped secure therapeutic holism’s place in interdisciplinary conversations about why medicine needs literature. The final section of the chapter critiques therapeutic holism and explains why palliative poetics offer a necessary corrective, using the work of Samuel Taylor Coleridge to illustrate the heterogeneity of Romantic literary therapies. It also surveys complementary recent work within the health humanities. Health humanists working in fields like nursing, chronic pain, and palliative care have begun to develop palliative poetics that do not expect literature to cure.

Data are presented to demonstrate that the effects of gonadectomy on body weight and food consumption differ in male and female rats. The findings are related to the authors' report of sex differences in the effects of ventromedial hypothalamic damage. A review of the literature on the relationship of the gonads to body weight in different species is presented.

<p>Cesarean delivery (CD) is the second most commonly performed surgery in the United States. As such, prevention of complications associated with this procedure is a top priority in nursing care. Nurses at the study insti- tution perceived that postcesarean patients experienced increased uri- nary retention after use of spinal morphine for postoperative pain relief. This observation prompted a review of the literature indicating that limited research had been conducted in this area. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of postelective CD urinary reten- tion and dose of spinal morphine. A retrospective, quasi-experimental, three-group design was used. Records of 150 patients, ages 17 to 39, undergoing elective primary or repeat CD were examined. Morphine doses included 100, 150, and 200 mcg. No statistically significant differ- ences were found between the three groups.</p>

Experimental Allergic

Attention is directed to the diagnosis of acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis and the possibility of its clinical recognition is discussed. Three case histories, two diagnosed at autopsy and one clinically, are presented. The latter was treated with very generous doses of steroids and recovered spectacularly. On omission of steroids, a mild, temporary clinical recurrence occurred. Clinical, clinicopathologic, and pathologic aspects of the disease are discussed, and etiologic factors mentioned. Some thoughts on the relationship of this disease to experimental allergic encephalomyelitis are mentioned. Differential diagnosis is considered and the use of biopsy for confirmation of diagnosis especially from herpes encephalitis considered. A plea is made for the trial of treatment with large doses of steroids.
