This single case study demonstrates the effects of antiandrogen treatment on a subject with a very serious sexual deviation and a poor prognosis. It assesses the effects of cyproterone acetate (CPA) on an individual with a serious chronic organic brain syndrome combined with sadistic homosexual pedophilia. Furthermore, this individual had failed to respond to a behavioural treatment program and long-term milieu therapy. Finally, this case study is the first report of CPA differentially affecting penile responses to deviant and non-deviant stimuli.

AbstractExpectations for service provision following a disaster are understandably high but difficult to meet. This report considers the case of a patient with pre-morbid anxiety traits and asthma who suffered organic brain damage as a consequence of the Hillsborough Football Stadium disaster, whose care was reactive rather than proactive and resulted in his compulsory admission to a psychiatric hospital. Aftercare arrangements need to be anticipated in advance and should involve early psychiatric assessment of at-risk patients. Medical control of case management following disasters needs further clarification.

The Relationship

This chapter, based on a single case study, has as its main objective to analyze a real example of creating an inter-organizational network and to perceive what was done for the selection and creation of the strategic partnerships and inter-organizational network and what factors or conditions can inhibit these partnerships from having long-term success and throughout its life cycle. For this, a qualitative study based on action research and semi-structured interviews was conducted. Results show although many companies settle in inter-organizational networks to gain competitive advantage, cases of failure are still quite high. In this case, upstream partnerships have not been based on long-term trust and commitment, which has jeopardized the continuity of the network, although there is an express desire to re-establish contacts. The partnership established downstream did not show the same commitment to continue the partnership with a total termination of the relationship.

Multiple Case

In 2015, the ecological, economic and social necessity of increasing energy efficiency contributed to street lighting renewal in the Spanish municipality of Casarabonela. Considering fixed operating and maintenance costs, it was a significant, long term investment with high impact for the community. Technicians chose LED light sources after studying technical and economic proposals submitted. Measurements of light levels, energy consumption and costs were carried out before and after the renovation. Once the chosen proposal was implemented, follow up surveys from technicians, maintenance workers and final users were collected. This case study aims to describe steps taken in the process of luminaires replacement. It has been estimated savings, expected and actual together with the return period on investment. This case may well serve as a prototype for a subsequent multiple case study which aims to validate a list of indicators obtained in a previous research.
