Unrest states

Antipsychotics are calming medications used to counteract marked inner unrest, psychomotor agitation and severe insomnia. These states can arise within the following contexts ... [Pg.3]

Pharmacodynamics, antipsychotics also differ in their pharmacodynamics, i.e. their pharmacological and clinical profiles of action. A rough distinction is made between highly sedative, hypnotic antipsychotics (e.g. clopenthixol, levomepromazine) and other products with weaker initial sedative action (e.g. fluphenazine and haloperidol). Sedative antipsychotics are prescribed for states of major unrest, often combined with insomnia, whereas the less sedative antipsychotics are preferred for patients suffering from delusions and hallucinations but in whom heavy sedation during daytime is undesirable. [Pg.6]

Figure 3.7 Effects of /-amphetamine on polygraphic sleep stages. A decrease in REM sleep, an increase in sleep unrest (shifts from sleep stages 2, 3 and 4 into the waking state and into stage 1) and an increase in stage 1 are typical effects seen after amphetamine-like stimulants used at small doses. After larger doses REM sleep is even more markedly reduced and total sleep time (TST) is shortened (reproduced from Spiegel, 1982, with permission from S. KargerAG, Basel)...

Armenia s position is almost the same and the strong nationalist segments of Armenian society and the Armenian diaspora at least will try their best to keep a nationalist leader in office. Democracy remains elusive and delayed due to the political and economic problems in the region. Thus, there is growing social unrest and discontent in these states and the best signs of these social problems have been assassination and coup attempts (with rumors of foreign support) against leadership in all the South Caucasian states. [Pg.350]

A "fuel or food" debate is also in progress, because biofuels are made from agricultural products and therefore they drive up food prices. Today 33 nations are at risk of social unrest because of the rise in food prices (most of their families spend 75%-80% of their income on food). In the United States, a fifth of the corn crop is used to brew ethanol and as more com is planted shortages develop in other produce, such as soybeans. [Pg.39]

The end result of the civil unrest was numerous shootings and bombings both of members of the security forces and of people who are suspected of being associated with one side or the other. Much property was destroyed by bombings, and armed robberies to finance the various causes were common. All this resulted in a substantial financial burden on the state for a long period of time. [Pg.309]

Citing plans for Ecuador as an example, Stiglitz revealed that the World Bank s expected that its medicine would spark social unrest - to use their bureaucratic term for a nation in flames. And faced with this unrest the chosen state managers are briefed to face down civil strife and suffering with, political resolve - and still higher prices. The article went on to add that you almost get the impression that the riot is written into the plan.38... [Pg.44]

Contextually, the United States experienced an extraordinary economic crisis as a result of the 2008 economic downturn that reverberated throughout the global economy and had a profound impact on the workforce (International Labour Organization, 2011). Coupled with waves of regional political unrest and continued societal globalization, these events reflect the... [Pg.392]

The difficulty from a practical perspective is that most of these catalysts will never perform sufficiently well at a commercial scale to be useful. Many catalysts developed in academia are also homogeneous catalysts and recovery is often not possible, but when it is possible, the recovery process can be problematic. From a sustainability perspective the use of the platinum group metals creates a number of challenges [65,66]. Most of these metals come from only two regions of the world Russia and South Africa. Russia has recently had pohtical and economic conflicts with Europe and the United States, while South Africa has a continued history of labor unrest related to the conditions under... [Pg.27]
