Presented for the American Statistical Association Health Policy Statistics Section. 9th International Conference on Health Policy Statistics, Poster session I, Cleveland, OH.
Policy Implications:
- Health insurance regulation should include compensation for taking on riskier groups.
- Health programs should focus on changing needs for risk management versus health management throughout the life cycle.

The Need For A Sugar-Sweetened Beverage Tax In Philadelphia – Policy Analysis, J M. O'Dell
The Need For A Sugar-Sweetened Beverage Tax In Philadelphia – Policy Analysis, J M. O'Dell
Master of Public Health Capstone Presentations
The goal of this study was to analyze sugar-sweetened beverage tax policy as one strategy to fight America’s obesity epidemic. Obesity is an enormous problem that plagues individuals worldwide. The prevalence of obesity is high in this country, exceeding 25% in 33 states. In Pennsylvania in 2009, 27.7% of adults were labeled as obese. Additionally, there are many more Philadelphians who are overweight or obese (900,000) than who are at a healthy weight (600,000). Obesity is extremely complex and has several causes. One cause of obesity and the main concern of this study is the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. Sugar-sweetened …

Use Of Internet-Based Diabetes Self-Management Education: Emmi Solutions, Esther Pak
Use Of Internet-Based Diabetes Self-Management Education: Emmi Solutions, Esther Pak
Master of Public Health Capstone Presentations
Diabetes is a serious public health problem in the United States and in Philadelphia. A 2007 CDC report stated that 7.8% in the US and 10.4% in Philadelphia had diabetes. While the key to managing one’s diabetes and lowering the risk of its adverse health outcomes is adherence to diabetes management guidelines, the prevalence of these behaviors among adult diabetics in the US remained relatively low. Attendance at a diabetes self-management class was particularly low (55.4%), which is of concern because of the importance of education in a patient’s adherence to diabetes-maintenance behaviors. Emmi Solutions recently developed three Internet-based diabetes …

Poster presented at "Medicine Meets Virtual Reality" conference February 8-12, 2011 in Newport Beach, California.
Conclusions:
Turning 2D CT/PET slices into 3D objects assists in understanding the topology surrounding tumor masses. Incorporating the visual and physical characteristics of a patient’s anatomy will provide surgeons with an informative pre-operative tool to plan and practice the operation before the first incision. Including haptic feedback provides a familiar 'feel' to surgeons as they palpate the target organ, trying to locate the tumor and determine how large a margin of resection will be needed. The development of genetic PET imaging and contrast CT into …

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Reported risk factors for PC include: advancing age, a family history of PC, high-risk inherited syndromes, cigarette smoking, exposure to occupational and environmental carcinogens, African-American race, high fat/high cholesterol diet, obesity, chronic pancreatitis, and diabetes mellitus.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to characterize one of the largest national registries of familial PC (FPC) and sporadic PC (SPC), focusing on demographics, clinical factors, self-reported environmental and occupational lifetime exposures and survival status.
Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional, case-only analysis of FPC cases (n …
