This book was released on 1982 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents detailed summaries of pertinent information regarding 3004 deaths collected from nine metropolitan areas in the United States all involving psychoactive drugs. Toxicologists fundamentally are confronted with interpreting the results of analytical determinations and ascertaining the range of concentrations of psychoactive drugs in biological fluids and tissues that are associated with death. By presenting data such as drug concentrations, methadology, role of drug in death, route of administration, autopsy findings, and cause of death as well as other information in a uniform manner, the authors have presented the scientific community with a valuable registry. Too infrequently is a compilation of data presented in the literature that permits independent study and allows the toxicologist to derive his own conclusions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shocking truth behind the death of an American icon—and the conspiracies that kept it secret for decades—in “the best autopsy of Marilyn Monroe” (Cyril H. Wecht, MD, JD) In her tragically short life, Marilyn Monroe embodied American womanhood, innocence, and lust—both as a Hollywood star and in the shadows of her tormented soul. But when she was found naked and dead on the morning of August 5, 1962, she became the subject of a mystery that has perplexed the world for generations. Was her death an accident? Suicide? Or murder? In Crypt 33, two Los Angeles private investigators recount the startling evidence that may solve the case once and for all, finally revealing the truth about: Monroe’s affairs with JFK and Robert Kennedy . . . The identity of the friend who allowed Monroe’s killers into her home . . . Evidence of the deadly drugs and how they were administered to the starlet . . . The rumors of an assassination plot masterminded by the Cosa Nostra and high-ranking government officials . . . The tangled web of wiretaps in Monroe’s home—and what happened to the audio tape recording of her murder . . . Now, at last, the truth of Monroe’s shocking death can be told in a book that “makes the hardest case yet that Marilyn was the victim of foul play” (Kirkus Reviews). “Well and sympathetically told . . . Speriglio and Gregory are fluent, convincing writers.” —Publishers Weekly

Download or read book Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.
