Avaluació de l’aplicació de l’experiència pilot de mediació i reparació en la jurisdicció penal ordinària (novembre de 1998 a novembre de 1999)

Des de l’entrada en vigor del nou Codi Penal de 1995, la Direcció General de Mesures Penals Alternatives i Justícia Juvenil ha realitzat un nombre reduït de mediacions. Al novembre de 1998, es va iniciar un programa pilot en alguns jutjats penals i d’instrucció de Catalunya, basat en l’anàlisi de les possibilitats d’aplicació de la reparació a la víctima. També s’estudiaven les primeres experiències de mediació i les tècniques de mediació adquirides pels professionals de la Direcció General en els àmbits de la mediació penal juvenil i la mediació familiar. En aquest estudi, s’avaluen els objectius respecte de l’infractor (responsabilització de les accions i reparació), la víctima (participació en la resolució, sentir-se reparada...), la justícia (promoure la responsabilització, la reparació i la pau social, garantir la resolució...) i la comunitat (apropar la justícia als ciutadans). Els resultats mostren la rellevància que està adquirint la justícia restauradora i la necessitat de facilitar eines perquè es pugui desenvolupar, tot i que de moment el nombre de casos derivats ha estat baix. S’ha demostrat la necessitat de flexibilitat en el tractament dels casos a causa de la diversitat de conflictes. També s’ha vist la necessitat de promoure la formació dels professionals que hi intervenen i d’impulsar reformes legislatives.

Trends in hospital discharges, management and in-hospital mortality from acute myocardial infarction in Switzerland between 1998 and 2008.

BACKGROUND: Since the late nineties, no study has assessed the trends in management and in-hospital outcome of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Switzerland. Our objective was to fill this gap. METHODS: Swiss hospital discharge database for years 1998 to 2008. AMI was defined as a primary discharge diagnosis code I21 according to the ICD10 classification. Invasive treatments and overall in-hospital mortality were assessed. RESULTS: Overall, 102,729 hospital discharges with a diagnosis of AMI were analyzed. The percentage of hospitalizations with a stay in an Intensive Care Unit decreased from 38.0% in 1998 to 36.2% in 2008 (p for trend < 0.001). Percutaneous revascularizations increased from 6.0% to 39.9% (p for trend < 0.001). Bare stents rose from 1.3% to 16.6% (p for trend < 0.001). Drug eluting stents appeared in 2004 and increased to 23.5% in 2008 (p for trend < 0.001). Coronary artery bypass graft increased from 1.0% to 3.0% (p for trend < 0.001). Circulatory assistance increased from 0.2% to 1.7% (p for trend < 0.001). Among patients managed in a single hospital (not transferred), seven-day and total in-hospital mortality decreased from 8.0% to 7.0% (p for trend < 0.01) and from 11.2% to 10.1%, respectively. These changes were no longer significant after multivariate adjustment for age, gender, region, revascularization procedures and transfer type. After multivariate adjustment, differing trends in revascularization procedures and in in-hospital mortality were found according to the geographical region considered. CONCLUSION: In Switzerland, a steep rise in hospital discharges and in revascularization procedures for AMI occurred between 1998 and 2008. The increase in revascularization procedures could explain the decrease in in-hospital mortality rates.

Iowa Crime Rate Comparisons Report, Iowa Department of Public Safety,1998

This report describes how Iowa compares to other states in the nation. To promote consistency, the Iowa totals and the other states’ information have been taken entirely from the FBI’s national publication called Crime in the United States; 1998. The Iowa information in Crime in the United States; 1998 is based upon actual summary totals for selected reporting jurisdictions and produced by the U.S. Department of Justice, F.B.I. These Iowa totals cannot be compared to the 1998 Incident-Based Iowa Uniform Crime Reports which are based on actual totals for all reporting Iowa law enforcement jurisdictions.
