Abstract

Just before Germany invaded the Netherlands in May 1940, Amsterdam's pre-eminent art dealer, Jacques Goudstikker, who was Jewish, escaped by ship with his wife and young son. He died in a shipboard fall, and the fortune in fine art he left behind was possessed by the Nazi leader Hermann Goring. In 2006 the Dutch government returned 200 paintings from the Goudstikker collection to their rightful heir, Marei von Saher, the widow of the dealer's son and a resident of Greenwich, Conn. How great was the Goudstikker collection? Pretty great, judging by a beautiful display of 40 paintings included in ''RECLAIMED: PAINTINGS FROM THE COLLECTION OF JACQUES GOUDSTIKKER,'' at the Bruce Museum in Greenwich. A specialist in northern Baroque art, Mr. Goudstikker sold paintings not only to Dutch and other European museums but also to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and to Andrew Mellon for the National Gallery of Art in Washington. Dating mostly from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, the paintings in the exhibition all look like pieces those institutions would still have on their wish lists. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Abstract

Aim: Opioid consumption and addiction are increasing worldwide, yet the USA stands out for its high addiction rates and opioid-related deaths. Considering that patient characteristics are comparable across western countries, physicians' prescribing modalities may influence opioid consumption. We conducted a pilot study to examine opioid-related beliefs and prescription habits of Dutch and American physicians. Methods & materials: A survey was administered to 488 physicians who routinely prescribe opioids for postoperative pain. Results: A total of 75 (16%) physicians responded to the survey. When deciding to prescribe opioids, Dutch physicians adopted a patient-guided approach, whereas most American doctors followed strict guidelines and protocols. Conclusion: This study identified significant differences between Dutch and American physicians' attitudes and prescribing modalities.
