Justiça Terapêutica e Cortes de Drogas

  • Categories: Law

Os crimes relacionados ao consumo de drogas nunca deixaram de estar em evidência. A forma de abordagem a esse tipo de criminalidade é que vem sofrendo algumas transformações ao longo das décadas. No Brasil se ouve falar em Justiça Terapêutica, como sendo uma variante do modelo norte-americano das Cortes de Drogas, a qual reconhece que, afastando-se o uso de droga em relação ao infrator, ocorreria uma redução importante da criminalidade, trazendo ainda outros benefícios sociais e individuais. Ocorre, contudo, que existem inúmeras indefinições e incompreensões acerca do que constitui a Justiça Terapêutica e as Cortes de Drogas. Tais incertezas trazem consigo uma grande insegu...

Lifetime Data: Models in Reliability and Survival Analysis

Statistical models and methods for lifetime and other time-to-event data are widely used in many fields, including medicine, the environmental sciences, actuarial science, engineering, economics, management, and the social sciences. For example, closely related statistical methods have been applied to the study of the incubation period of diseases such as AIDS, the remission time of cancers, life tables, the time-to-failure of engineering systems, employment duration, and the length of marriages. This volume contains a selection of papers based on the 1994 International Research Conference on Lifetime Data Models in Reliability and Survival Analysis, held at Harvard University. The conference brought together a varied group of researchers and practitioners to advance and promote statistical science in the many fields that deal with lifetime and other time-to-event-data. The volume illustrates the depth and diversity of the field. A few of the authors have published their conference presentations in the new journal Lifetime Data Analysis (Kluwer Academic Publishers).

These proceedings from the 37th International Workshop on Bayesian Inference and Maximum Entropy Methods in Science and Engineering (MaxEnt 2017), held in São Carlos, Brazil, aim to expand the available research on Bayesian methods and promote their application in the scientific community. They gather research from scholars in many different fields who use inductive statistics methods and focus on the foundations of the Bayesian paradigm, their comparison to objectivistic or frequentist statistics counterparts, and their appropriate applications. Interest in the foundations of inductive statistics has been growing with the increasing availability of Bayesian methodological alternatives, and...

Handbook of Drug Interactions

A concise compilation of the known interactions of the most commonly prescribed drugs, as well as their interaction with nonprescription compounds.

Lacrimal Gland, Tear Film, and Dry Eye Syndromes

During the past decade a significant international research effort has been directed towards understanding the composition and regulation of the preocular tear film. This effort has been motivated by the recognition that the tear film plays an essential role in maintaining corneal and conjunctival integrity, protecting against microbial challenge and preserving visual acuity. In addition, research has been stimulated by the knowledge that alteration or deficiency of the tear film, which occurs in countless individuals throughout the world, may lead to desiccation of the ocular surface, ulceration and perforation of the cornea, an increased incidence of infectious disease, and potentially, pr...
