Summary
‘The possession of land [to quote Professor Pollard] was the key to social dominance and political power’ in much of Europe in the fifteenth century. At the same time, in England and Wales – region by region, county by county, lordship by lordship – land, society and power were marked by differences as well as common features in administrative structures, management styles and political and social experiences, and, in an age of civil strife, certain peculiarities and disharmonies. In these contexts, the marcher lordships of Wales had a singular character and a distinctive part to play during the Wars of the Roses.
The rulers and inhabitants of these lordships in southern and eastern Wales, Gower among them, had recently experienced Owain Glyn Dŵr's revolt, either directly in many areas, or less directly in others as unsettling news arrived from neighbouring communities and lordships. There was physical destruction, and rural and urban folk alike were inclined (or induced) to adopt a variety of attitudes, for or against the rebels. In Gower some would have chosen the rebel side and others not, yet all – including the marcher lord himself – would surely have striven to emerge as peaceably and securely as possible after hostilities had generally ceased in the lordship by 1406. Such reactions were widespread in the decades that followed the revolt, whether in royal counties (such as Carmarthenshire) or the lordships of English nobles who were the marcher lords, among them the Mowbray dukes of Norfolk, whose family had been lords of Gower since 1331 (apart from the years 1354–97). In this connection, it is still worth quoting the perceptive comment of G.M. Trevelyan in his classic (if in other respects dated) history of the English people: ‘The Wars of the Roses were to a large extent a quarrel among Marcher Lords. For the great Lords Marcher were closely related to the English throne, and had estates and political interests both in England and the Welsh March.’ Some of the implications and limitations of this observation for lords and their social elites are worth exploring in the lordship of Gower. At a seigneurial level, Gower became enmeshed in the wider political disputes about possession of the crown no earlier than the summer of 1460.

Summary
The marcher lordship of Gower in south Wales rarely rated a mention in the proceedings of the medieval English parliament. However, it achieved notoriety when the Commons and the Lords met in the winter of 1439–40: they were treated to a harrowing story with Gower at its centre. A petition was submitted to the Commons, either in the parliament's first session at Westminster between 12 November and 21 December 1439, or more likely in the second session held at Reading between 14 January and the third week of February 1440, on behalf of a young widow, Margaret Malefaunt. Her husband, Sir Thomas Malefaunt, had died in London on 8 May 1438, and the petition described how, in the course of her journey to London some weeks later from the Malefaunt estates in Pembrokeshire, she was abducted in Gower, and then taken to the neighbouring lordship of Glamorgan where she was raped and forced into marriage by her husband's former servant, Lewys Leyshon. The purpose of the petition was to secure the arrest and punishment of Leyshon: it accordingly related Margaret's view of the incident and proposed certain legal procedures by which he could be brought to justice.
Sir Thomas and Margaret Malefaunt were lord and lady of the manors of Upton and Pill in the lordship of Pembroke and of the manors of Wenvoe and St. George in the Vale of Glamorgan. In 1438 they were, therefore, mesne tenants of both Humphrey, duke of Gloucester and earl of Pembroke, and Richard Beauchamp, earl of Warwick and lord of Glamorgan. The incident in Gower, whose lord was John Mowbray, duke of Norfolk, casts light on several aspects of society and the law in fifteenth-century England and Wales: on relationships – including judicial relationships – between three marcher lordships and between them and the crown, on the availability of justice (including for women), on relations between marcher lords and their prominent tenants, and on the interconnections of the English and Welsh gentry and their links with the royal household.
Doubtless in the light of advice available to Margaret from her relatives, friends and attorneys, the first part of her petition recounts what happened in Gower and Glamorgan in June 1438.

Objective: National security special events occur yearly in the United States. These events require comprehensive advance planning for health and medical contingencies in addition to law enforcement concerns. The planning for and impact of the Republican National Convention (RNC) on the City of St Paul and the Minneapolis–St Paul metropolitan area is described.
Methods: Descriptive analysis of events was provided by the authors based on their planning and operational experiences. Daily data were gathered from area hospitals, emergency medical services agencies, the National Weather Service, federal medical teams, and the Minnesota Department of Health to capture the impact of the RNC on emergency department activity, nonemergency surgery, emergency medical services run volumes, patient visits to onsite and offsite medical clinics, and general hospital occupancy in the metropolitan area.
Results: There were no epidemiological signal events. Weather was not extreme. Confrontations between protestors and law enforcement resulted in frequent use of riot-control agents. Protestors sought medical care from “street medics” and their affiliated free clinics in preference to usual medical facilities. Emergency departments close to the event venue reported decreased patient volumes. Hospitals close to the venue reported significantly decreased nonemergency surgical case volumes. Local hospitals implemented access controls and in 1 case, shut down ventilation systems due to riot-control agent deployment in the streets outside. Emergency medical services volumes were near average, with the exception of St Paul Fire Department on the day of a major protest march.
Conclusions: Planning and operational response for the RNC consumed large amounts of time and resources. The RNC had minimal patient impact on the health care system and in fact caused significant volume decreases at hospitals proximate to the venue. Although contingencies available for a mass casualty event were not needed, they must continue to be available for all such events. Health and medical preparedness and funding is not adequately detailed in the planning framework for national security special events, and this should be a focus for future events.

Objective:
To examine the clinical outcomes and costs associated with Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia among hemodialysis-dependent patients.
Design:Prospectively identified cohort study.
Setting:A tertiary-care university medical center in North Carolina.
Patients:Two hundred ten hemodialysis-dependent adults with end-stage renal disease hospitalized with S. aureus bacteremia.
Results:The majority of the patients (117; 55.7%) underwent dialysis via tunneled catheters, and 29.5% (62) underwent dialysis via synthetic arteriovenous fistulas. Vascular access was the suspected source of bacteremia in 185 patients (88.1%). Complications occurred in 31.0% (65), and the overall 12-week mortality rate was 19.0% (40). The mean cost of treating S. aureus bacteremia, including readmissions and outpatient costs, was $24,034 per episode. The mean initial hospitalization cost was significantly greater for patients with complicated versus uncomplicated S. aureus bacteremia ($32,462 vs $17,011; P= .002).
Conclusion:Interventions to decrease the rate of S. aureus bacteremia are needed in this high-risk, hemodialysis-dependent population (Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2005;26:534-539).

Objective:
Comorbid conditions have complicated previous analyses of the consequences of methicillin resistance for costs and outcomes of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia. We compared costs and outcomes of methicillin resistance in patients with S. aureus bacteremia and a single chronic condition.
Design, Setting, and Patients:We conducted a prospective cohort study of hemodialysis-dependent patients with end-stage renal disease and S. aureus bacteremia hospitalized between July 1996 and August 2001. We used propensity scores to reduce bias when comparing patients with methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) S. aureus bacteremia. Outcome measures were resource use, direct medical costs, and clinical outcomes at 12 weeks after initial hospitalization.
Results:Fifty-four patients (37.8%) had MRSA and 89 patients (62.2%) had MSSA. Compared with patients with MSSA bacteremia, patients with MRSA bacteremia were more likely to have acquired the infection while hospitalized for another condition (27.8% vs 12.4%; P = .02). To attribute all inpatient costs to S. aureus bacteremia, we limited the analysis to 105 patients admitted for suspected S. aureus bacteremia from a community setting. Adjusted costs were higher for MRSA bacteremia for the initial hospitalization ($21,251 vs $13,978; P = .012) and after 12 weeks ($25,518 vs $17,354; P = .015). At 12 weeks, patients with MRSA bacteremia were more likely to die (adjusted odds ratio, 5.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.5 to 18.7) than were patients with MSSA bacteremia.
Conclusions:Community-dwelling, hemodialysis-dependent patients hospitalized with MRSA bacteremia face a higher mortality risk, longer hospital stays, and higher inpatient costs than do patients with MSSA bacteremia.

Summary
a framework
In 1300 Wales was almost as urbanised a country as England (Map 22.12). The current view, based largely, if tentatively, on the surviving records of a lay subsidy imposed on Wales by Edward I in 1292–3, is that Wales' population at that time was about 300,000 souls. It had about 100 towns and chartered boroughs, albeit they were on average smaller in size than those of England; only a minority is likely to have had more than 1,000 inhabitants each. The proportion of Wales' population that lived in these towns seems not to have been significantly smaller than town-dwelling proportions in England (estimated at 15 per cent) or Spain; fewer than one fifth of these town dwellers were of Welsh descent. Furthermore, in 1300 townsmen and country dwellers from Wales were regular visitors to the substantial, prosperous border towns of Chester, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Leominster, Hereford, Tewkesbury, Gloucester and, by sea and ferry, to Bristol, whose own merchants customarily plied their trades in many a Welsh town.
Wales in 1300, then, was an urbanised society to a significant degree. This may seem surprising in view of the fact that Gerald of Wales (c. 1146–1223), who knew southern Wales especially well and had travelled widely through much of the country, implied that the Welsh population: do not live in towns, villages or castles, but lead a solitary existence, deep in the woods. It is not their habit to build great palaces, or vast and towering structures of stone and cement. Instead they content themselves with wattled huts on the edges of the forest, put up with little labour or expense, but strong enough to last a year or so.

Erythrocyte catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) activity was studied in 65 patients with depressive illness and anxiety states. A hypothesis that measurement of this enzyme might have some value as an aid to diagnosis and as an index of clinical recovery has not been confirmed. In patients with endogenous depression, agitated subjects had COMT levels significantly higher than normal (P < ·01) and retarded subjects had levels significantly lower than normal (P < ·02). These observations are congruent with some reports of high and low urinary MHPG excretion in patients with depression. Further data correlating COMT assays with catecholamine metabolites in depressed patients may reveal homogeneous biochemical subgroups which could serve as a guide to rational therapy.
