In the last few decades there has been a wealth of literature and legislation on advance directives. As you all know, it is an instrument by which a person can express their wishes as regards what treatmentthey should be given or, more to the point, not to be given, when he is in a situation when he can not do so himself.Regulations in the western world seem to promote advance directives as a way to enhance patient¿s autonomy in thecontext of human rights, and the media has presented advance directives as another milestone in this era of selfdetermination.However, if we look closely at some of thoseregulations we will see that there are a few elements which may undermine their efficacy, shattering this nicely presentedpicture. I will focus on two elements. First, formal requirements, and secondly, certain limits or what I like to call "escape clauses".

Postmortem biochemistry is becoming increasingly essential in the forensic casework and considerable progress has been made over the past years. Biochemical analyses of blood, postmortem serum, pericardial fluid, vitreous humor and urine may indeed provide significant information in identifying the cause of death as well as characterizing the precipitating conditions and the predisposing disorders. Postmortem biochemical analyses are decisive in determining the cause of death when the pathophysiological changes involved in the process cannot be otherwise ascertained by morphological investigations (mainly diabetic and alcoholic ketoacidosis). It can also provide significant information and useful support in numerous situations on forensic interest, including cold exposure-related deaths, fatal anaphylaxis, bacterial infection-related fatalities and hormonal disturbances. In this report we present an overview pertaining to the diagnostic performance of classical and novel biochemical markers in the forensic setting.

We discuss reality conditions and the relation between spacetime diffeomorphisms and gauge transformations in Ashtekars complex formulation of general relativity. We produce a general theoretical framework for the stabilization algorithm for the reality conditions, which is different from Diracs method of stabilization of constraints. We solve the problem of the projectability of the diffeomorphism transformations from configuration-velocity space to phase space, linking them to the reality conditions. We construct the complete set of canonical generators of the gauge group in the phase space which includes all the gauge variables. This result proves that the canonical formalism has all the gauge structure of the Lagrangian theory, including the time diffeomorphisms.

Bariatric surgery techniques can usually increase either sensitivity or insulin resistance, acting on three different levels: decrease of food intake, malabsorption and modifications of entero-insulaire axis activity. This latter is taken into account in order to develop a new protocol to obtain diabetes remission without important weight loss and nutritional deficiencies. Preliminary results are interesting but they come from very short time studies with few patients. Moreover, complications rate is at present very high. Knowing better gastrointestinal mechanisms of diabetes control and especially incretins role is absolutely necessary before identifying surgery as a true metabolic treatment.
