Overview. Overview of historical and current problems of cadmium pollution in Japan -- Health effects of cadmium in human populations and its relation to cadmium exposure levels. History and present status of Itai-Itai disease -- Pathophysiology of renal and bone lesions in Itai-itai disease -- A long-term follow-up study of the residents exposed to cadmium in Kakehashi River basin -- Effects of cadmium exposure on life prognosis -- Evaluation of cadmium exposure and health effects among rice farmers in Akita prefecture -- Cadmium intake from foods among general population in Japan and Asia -- Rice contamination by cadmium and its remediation. Regulation of cadmium contents in rice -- Molecular mechanism of cadmium accumulation in rice -- Mitigation technologies of cadmium and arsenic in rice -- Development of low-cadmium-accumulating rice -- New aspects in the mechanisms of cadmium toxicity.

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This volume focuses on cadmium (Cd) exposure, its effects on human health, the mechanism of Cd accumulation and the development of mitigation technologies. Further, it discusses clinical, epidemiological, agricultural, toxicological, and biochemical aspects of Cd pollution and presents recent biochemical studies on molecular mechanisms of Cd cytotoxicity and cellular transport as well as the mechanism of Cd- |

induced disturbances in phosphorus (P) metabolism. It also provides insights into the pathophysiology of itai-itai disease, a serious condition caused by Cd pollution. Cadmium -New Aspects in Human Disease, Rice Contamination, and Cytotoxicity- is a valuable resource for scientists involved in heavy metal toxicology, botanical sciences, and regulatory sciences. Addressing the features of Cd pollution in the past and in the present, as well as future perspectives, this is a must-have book for students, researchers and practitioners interested in global and local metal pollution. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Police are required to obey the law. While that seems obvious, courts have lost track of that requirement due to misinterpreting the two constitutional provisions governing police conduct: the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments. The Fourth Amendment forbids "unreasonable searches and seizures" and is the source of most constitutional constraints on policing. Although that provision technically applies only to the federal government, the Fourteenth Amendment, ratified in the wake of the Civil War, has been deemed to apply the Fourth Amendment to the States.This book contends that the courts' misinterpretation of these provisions has led them to hold federal and state law enforcement mistakenly to the same constitutional standards. The Fourth Amendment was originally |

understood as a federalism, or "states' rights," provision that, in effect, required federal agents to adhere to state law when searching or seizing. Thus, applying the same constraint to the States is impossible. Instead, the Fourteenth Amendment was originally understood in part as requiring that state officials (1) adhere to state law, (2) not discriminate, and (3) not be granted excessive discretion by legislators. These principles should guide judicial review of modern policing. Instead, constitutional constraints on policing are too strict and too forgiving at the same time. In this book, Michael J.Z. Mannheimer calls for a reimagination of what modern policing could look like based on the original understandings of the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments. |
