‘‘good Cop/bad Cop’’ as a Model for Nonproliferation Diplomacy toward North Korea and Iran

Scholarly and popular literature in the recent past has framed nonproliferation diplomacy toward both Iran and North Korea as an example of ‘‘good cop/bad cop,’’ a social-psychological strategy borrowed from law enforcement to describe a process for forcing a confession by subjecting a target to stressful emotional contrast. This article examines those two cases, roughly covering the period sin...

EBV infection and anti-CD3 treatment for Type 1 diabetes: bad cop, good cop?

Duality of lipid mediators in host response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis: good cop, bad cop

Lipid mediators play an important role in infection- and tissue injury-driven inflammatory responses and in the subsequent inhibition and resolution of the response. Here, we discuss recent findings that substantiate how Mycobacterium tuberculosis promotes its survival in the host by dysregulation of lipid mediator balance. By inhibiting prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and enhancing lipoxin production,...

Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia masquerading as lung carcinoma: A case report and review of the literature

Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) is a rare pulmonary disorder of unknown etiology. COP with hemoptysis as the primary presenting symptom has rarely been reported. The present study reported a case of COP that resembled lung carcinoma with hemoptysis as the only clinical symptom. The patient recovered well following thoracoscope surgery. A literature review of 119 COP cases between 1995 an...

Large classes of infinite k-cop-win graphs

While finite cop-win finite graphs possess a good structural characterization, none is known for infinite cop-win graphs. As evidence that such a characterization might not exist, we provide as large as possible classes of infinite graphs with finite cop number. More precisely, for each infinite cardinal and each positive integer k, we construct 2 non-isomorphic k-cop-win graphs satisfying addi...
