Global publish settings in meteor

In meteor, is there a way to run something before every publish. Something like (pseudo) Metoer.onBeforePublish?

A use case would be to add a protection layer to all the publish functions, for example:

if (!this.userId) {
  return this.ready()
}

Thanks to MasterAM comment, here is my implementation:

pub = function(name) {
  var cb = Array.prototype.pop.call(arguments)
  var args = Array.prototype.slice(arguments, 1, -1)
    if(Meteor.isServer) {
      Meteor.publish(name, function(args){
        if (!this.userId) {
          return this.ready()
        }
      })
      cb(args)
    }
}

and call it like so:

pub('taxes', query, options, function(){
  Taxes.find(query, options)
})

Thanks!
