Summary
IN 1206 CHINGGIS Qan unified the previously warring people of eastern Inner Asia to create the “Great Mongol State” (Yeke Mongγol Ulus). By conquering or subduing his rivals, he removed competing sources of loyalty and concentrated political power in his own hands. This centralization of power was praised by observers, both Mongol and foreign alike, who juxtaposed the Chinggisid state, characterized by a stable government and a well-defined military hierarchy, with the supposedly more volatile and centrifugal tendencies of the earlier aristocratic households (ayimaqs), often referred to as “tribes.” The Persian historian and bureaucrat, Juvaynī, noted that the Mongols of old had been so poor that they viewed metal stirrups as a sign of wealth and nobility, whilst the Secret History of the Mongols—an anonymous biography of Chinggis Qan, most likely compiled during the reign of his successor Ögödei before undergoing later revision—devoted many lines to the lack of leadership on the Inner Asian steppe prior to 1206. The anonymous Chinese history of Chinggis Qan's early campaigns, Shengwu qingsheng lu (聖武親征錄), which was completed during the reign of Qubilai Qa’an (r. 1260– 1294), characterized those who submitted to Chinggis Qan as “women who have no husbands; as horses who have no pastures.” In short, they lived in a state of disorder and poverty, which was only rectified by the creation of a strong government under Chinggis Qan's leadership.
These undoubtedly exaggerated accounts of turmoil amongst the Inner Asian nomads, written well after Chinggis Qan's rise to power, were surely intended to discourage disloyalty to the new regime. They obliged readers to consider the great power the Mongols enjoyed under Chinggisid rule and to think of any attack against their leadership and laws as a return to the chaos of the past. Indeed, to turn away from the precepts and edicts of Chinggis Qan was considered an attack on the political and social order of the Mongol Empire itself. Those guilty of such crimes were often described as being in a state of bulqa, a term that was initially employed to refer to “rebellious people” (bulqa irgen), but was later glossed in the Persian histories with the Arabic fitna (chaos, disorder).

During the initial surge of the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring and summer of 2020, paediatric heart centres were forced to rapidly alter the way patient care was provided to minimise interruption to patient care as well as exposure to the virus. In this survey-based descriptive study, we characterise changes that occurred within paediatric cardiology practices across the United States and described provider experience and attitudes towards these changes during the pandemic. Common changes that were implemented included decreased numbers of procedures, limiting visitors and shifting towards telemedicine encounters. The information obtained from this survey may be useful in guiding and standardising responses to future public health crises.

By the beginning of the fourteenth century the court histories of the Īl-Khānate had begun to lament that ‘qarachu’ (non-royal) commanders dominated the realm. The same histories report that these qarachu were drawn from the families of the khans’ royal guardsmen (kešik). The fact that these kešik families had come to eclipse, and in some cases threaten, the power of their Chinggisid patrons suggests a much broader transformation of the Īl-Khān polity from the patrimonial government of the khan's household, which characterised the early Mongol Empire, to a quasi-feudal state, dominated by a powerful military aristocracy. The present study will elucidate how this new aristocracy supported their authority through the hereditary transmission of armies, property and, offices, which entrenched their position at the summit of Īl-Khān polity.

In 688/1289 Nawrūz Aqa, a leading Mongol magnate, began a rebellion in Khurasan to resist the Ilkhan Arghun's attempts to centralize power and loosen the Mongol aristocracy's grip on provincial government. The rebellion of Nawrūz was significantly different from any Mongol uprising that had occurred in the Ilkhanate to that date: it was distinguished by the successful fusion of Chinggisid and Islamic traditions of political and spiritual authority to support Nawrūz's challenge against the Hülegüid monarchy. This new hybrid political philosophy allowed Nawrūz to mobilize both the sedentary and nomadic populations of Khurasan to overhaul the power structure of the Ilkhanate. The present study of the early career and rebellion of Amīr Nawrūz will reveal how his movement forced the Turco-Mongolian leadership to reconfigure its political, social and religious relationships, among themselves and with the sedentary Muslim population they ruled.

Objectives:
To determine if a dedicated teaching attending for medical student education improves medical student, attending physician, and resident perceptions and satisfaction.
Methods:Two dedicated teaching attending physician shifts were added to the clinical schedule each week. A before-after trial compared medical student evaluations from 2000 to 2004 (preteaching attending physician) to medical student evaluations from 2005 to 2006 (teaching attending physician). Attending physician and resident perceptions and satisfaction with the teaching attending physician shifts using a 5-point Likert-type scale (1 = poor to 5 = excellent) were also assessed.
Results:Eighty-nine (100%) medical students participated, with 63 preteaching attending physician and 26 teaching attending physician rotation evaluations. The addition of teaching attending physician shifts improved mean medical student satisfaction with bedside teaching (4.1 to 4.5), lecture satisfaction (4.2 to 4.8), preceptor scores (4.3 to 4.8), and perceived usefulness of the rotation (4.5 to 5.0) (all p < 0.05). Thirteen attending physicians (93%) participated in the crosssectional questionnaire. The addition of teaching attending physician shifts improved faculty ratings of their medical student interactions by ≥ 1.5 points for all items (p ≤ 0.001). Faculty perceptions of their resident interactions improved for quality of bedside teaching (3.1 to 4.0), their availability to hear resident presentations (3.4 to 4.2), and their supervision of residents (3.4 to 4.1) (p ≤ 0.01). Residents (n = 35) noted minor improvements with the timeliness of patient dispositions, faculty bedside teaching, and attending physician availability.
Conclusions:The addition of select teaching attending physician shifts had the greatest effect on medical student and faculty perceptions and satisfaction, with some improvements for residents.

Fall detectors are a form of remote monitoring assistive technology that have the potential to enhance the wellbeing of adults at risk from falling. In this paper, the ethical issues raised by the use of fall detectors are examined. The fall detection devices currently available are outlined, and a summary of how these devices require social-care services, or family carers, to respond in particular ways, is provided. The ethical issues associated with the use of fall detectors are classified under four headings: autonomy, privacy, benefit, and the use of resources. These issues, we argue, arise out of the nature of the technology itself, and the way that this technology is integrated into the day-to-day support package of the person for whom it is provided. It is argued that manufacturers have a duty to provide information about the ‘ethical side-effects’ associated with the use of a particular device, and that the process of making a decision to provide a person with a fall detector should include a checklist of questions that is designed to enable decision makers to work through the ethical issues raised.

Collaboration is used by the US National Security Council as a means to integrate inter-federal government agencies during planning and execution of common goals towards unified, national security. The concept of collaboration has benefits in the healthcare system by building trust, sharing resources, and reducing costs. The current terrorist threats have made collaborative medical training between military and civilian agencies crucial.
This review summarizes the long and rich history of collaboration between civilians and the military in various countries and provides support for the continuation and improvement of collaborative efforts. Through collaboration, advances in the treatment of injuries have been realized, deaths have been reduced, and significant strides in the betterment of the Emergency Medical System have been achieved. This review promotes collaborative medical training between military and civilian medical professionals and provides recommendations for the future based on medical collaboration.

Summary
If I could write the beauty of your eyes And in fresh numbers number all your graces, The age to come would say ‘This poet lies: Such heavenly touches ne'er touch'd earthly faces’ … Sonnet 17
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem In gentle numbers time so idly spent … Sonnet 50
SINCE THE late nineteenth century, critics have tried to group some or all of the plays Shakespeare wrote late in his career – Coriolanus, Cymbeline, The Winter's Tale, The Tempest, Pericles (co-authored with George Wilkins), Henry VIII and The Two Noble Kinsmen (both co-authored with John Fletcher) – into a single critical category, usually on the basis of thematic, dramaturgical, or linguistic similarities among members of the group. While there is no consensus on which category is most appropriate for such a grouping (designations such as ‘late plays’, ‘romances’, and ‘tragicomedies’ have been proposed), there is nevertheless a persistent feeling among Shakespeare's readers that something distinguishes several of these plays from the others and that this ‘something’ ought to be the object of critical analysis. At times the perception of such a similarity has been so strong that it has led to categorical declarations of the sort made by Gerard Eades Bentley in the mid twentieth century, who asserted that ‘no competent critic who has read carefully through the Shakespeare canon has failed to notice that there is something different [about these plays]’.

Background. The role of physical illness and life problems in contributing to suicide in older people is potentially important with regard to suicide prevention.
Method. The aim of the study was to determine the life problems other than psychiatric illness contributing to suicide in older people. Semi-structured psychological autopsy interviews, covering life problems and physical illness prior to death, were conducted with informants for 100 people aged 60 years old and over who died through suicide in five English counties. Interviews were completed with informants for 54 age- and sex-matched control subjects who died through natural causes.
Results. The three most frequent life problems associated with suicide were physical illness, interpersonal problems, and bereavement. Physical health problems were present in 82% and felt to be contributory to death in 62%. Pain, breathlessness and functional limitation were the most frequent symptoms. Interpersonal problems were present in 55% of the sample and contributory in 31%. The corresponding figures for bereavement-related problems were 47% and 25%. In the case-control analysis, the problems found to be risk factors for suicide were problems related to a bereavement over 1 year before death (OR 3·5, 95% CI 1·2–10·6), and problems with accommodation (OR 5·0, 95% CI 1·1–22·8), finances (p=0·01), and retirement (p=0·02).
Conclusion. Physical illness, interpersonal problems and bereavement are commonly associated with suicide in older people, but financial, accommodation, retirement and long- term bereavement-related problems may be more specific risk factors.
