行政协议司法审查的法律适用

在遵循依法行政原则的前提下,行政协议各方约定各自的权利义务从而实现行政目的。行政协议的主体和内容的二元性,即行政性和民事性,决定了行政协议的司法审查法律适用的复合性。行政协议的司法审查应公共利益和私人权益兼顾,并力求合法性与合约性、安定性之间适当平衡。     

窖蛋白与不明原因心源性猝死的相关性研究进展

不明原因心源性猝死(unexpected sudden cardiac death,USCD)因其不伴有心脏结构的异常,尸体解剖呈阴性改变,一直是法医病理学鉴定的热点难题。USCD可能与部分致死性心律失常有关,该类心律失常多由心脏离子通道蛋白或其相关蛋白发生异常所致。窖蛋白可以通过其脚手架区域与多种心肌离子通道蛋白结合,在维持心肌动作电位的去极化和复极化中起到关键作用。当窖蛋白由于基因突变或蛋白表达异常等因素导致其结构和功能受到影响时,受其调控的心肌离子通道的功能也受到损害,继而引起多种离子通道病的发生,出现心律失常甚至心源性猝死。研究窖蛋白对离子通道功能的影响对于探索恶性心律失常及心源性猝死的发生机制具有重要意义。     

IMA和H-FABP在心源性猝死法医学诊断中的应用

急性心肌缺血的发生是心源性猝死的最常见原因,而如何认定早期急性心肌缺血是法医学研究的热点,同时也是临床预防心肌梗死发生的重要环节。本文通过对缺血修饰白蛋白(ischemia modified albumin,IMA)和心型脂肪酸结合蛋白(heart-type fatty acid binding protein,H-FABP)的结构、功能、临床应用价值及法医学中的应用前景进行综述,旨在分析二者是否可作为早期心肌缺血的生化检测指标用于心源性猝死的诊断,并为今后选择心源性猝死的科研方向提供借鉴。     

Mapping current issues in administrative justice: austerity and the ‘more bureaucratic rationality’ approach

This article critically reviews recent developments in the administrative justice system; in particular, it considers three key themes: improving initial decisions; administrative review; and the future of tribunals. In each of these areas, some aspects of administrative justice work well, but austerity has presented acute challenges in ensuring the fair and just treatment of people through restrictions upon legal aid; the withdrawal of some appeal rights; and the expansion of administrative review. Consequently, the system is moving away from a ‘legal’ model of administrative justice to the ‘bureaucratic rationality’ model, which focuses upon accurate and efficient implementation. However, the reality does not correspond with the goals of the model. Rather than accurate and efficient implementation of policy, what we find is poor decision-making made by junior officials with insufficient quality controls. Digitising tribunals may have potential benefits in terms of increased accessibility. Nonetheless, the prospects for administrative justice are weak.     

胰岛素中毒法医学研究进展

胰岛素作为一种临床上常见的降血糖药物,可以有效控制糖尿病患者血糖,使之维持在正常范围。但过量胰岛素可导致死亡,其中以意外中毒最多见,其次为自杀,胰岛素他杀虽极为罕见,但值得高度重视。胰岛素中毒致死的法医学鉴定极为困难,虽然相关研究已取得一定的进展,但在法医学实践中,这类案件仍然是一大难题。本文从法医病理学的角度,对胰岛素中毒的死亡机制、病理学改变、检测手段、注意要点及诊断要点进行综述,为法医学实践提供帮助。     

Violence prevention in psychiatry: an umbrella review of interventions in general and forensic psychiatry

Relative risks of violence in psychiatric patients are high compared to the general population and existing evidence in non-psychiatric populations may not translate to reductions in violence in psychiatric populations. We searched 10 databases including Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL and Scopus, from inception until August 2015 for systematic reviews and meta-analyses of violence prevention interventions in psychiatry. Reviews were included if they used a hard outcome measure (i.e. police or hospital recorded violence, or reincarceration) and contained randomized or non-randomized controlled studies. Five reviews met our inclusion criteria (n = 8876 patients in total), of which four received a GRADE rating of ‘low’ or ‘very low’. Three randomized studies (n = 636) reported that therapeutic community interventions may reduce reincarceration in drug-using offenders with co-occurring mental illness (‘moderate’ GRADE rating). The lack of intervention research in violence prevention in general and forensic psychiatry suggests that interventions from non-psychiatric populations may need to be relied upon.     

司法审查正当性的证成路径及其评析

对于美国宪政结构中司法审查与民主的悖论问题,西方学界致力于改造传统多数主义的民主观念并提出相应的宪法解释技术来论证司法审查的正当性,这表现为伊利的程序性民主与司法监督、德沃金的合宪性民主与道德解读、波斯纳的精英式民主与实用主义审判、哈贝马斯的协商式民主与程序主义司法等诸多具有代表性的理论范式。事实上,司法审查的正当性证成不能仅仅依靠重构民主观念的外部论证来实现,还需要依靠法官精湛的判决论证技术的内部路径来提升。这说明司法审查与民主的悖论是宪政结构中构成性的内在矛盾,而司法审查与民主的互动则是宪政具有生命力的内在源泉。     

特别权力关系与司法审查

特别权力关系是社会生活中客观存在的一个领域,它与一般法律相比有自己的特殊性,突出表现在它与司法审查的关系上。特别权力关系理论对司法审查采取了一般性的排斥态度,凸现其局限性。随民主、法治、宪政潮流之进展,司法审查适度介入传统特别权力关系领域已成为一种必然趋势。为此,既与法治潮流相适应,又吸取特别权力关系理论科学成分的"重要性"理论是值得借鉴的。作为司法审查介入的应对,我国在引进和完善"重要性"理论的同时,应当明确赋予学校等事业单位行政主体资格,加大内部管理规则的审查力度,在行政法上率先确立判例制度。     

试论程序辩护

程序辩护是刑事诉讼民主、文明的体现,在我国,无论诉讼理论还是司法实践对程序辩护的关注明显不足。因此有必要对程序辩护的涵义、内容、价值作深入分析,进而提出完善程序辩护的对策建议。
