Maternal And Neonatal Predictors Of Psychomotor And Physical Development Of 5-Year-Old Children, M Aminul Islam

All ETDs from UAB

We evaluated the long-term effects of small for gestational age (SGA) and preterm birth on psychomotor and physical development of children. We followed 857 singleton newborns to assess their physical growth at 5 y of age using z Scores of weight-for-age, weight-for-height, and height-for-age. Of the 857 infants, 740 children were assessed at age 5 y for intelligence quotient (IQ) using Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scales of Intelligence-Revised. A subset of 740 (68%) children was also evaluated at 1 y of age for mental development index (MDI) and psychomotor development index (PDI) measured by Bayley Scales for Infant Development. After …


Vector -Borne Viral Diseases In The Amazonian Rain Forest Of Ecuador, Ricardo O. Izurieta Jan 2000

Vector -Borne Viral Diseases In The Amazonian Rain Forest Of Ecuador, Ricardo O. Izurieta

All ETDs from UAB

Population movement has been an important factor in determining the spread of viral diseases in the New World, including the Amazonian rainforest. In July and August of 1997, an epidemic outbreak of an unknown hemorrhagic fever was detected in the Pastaza Province in the Ecuadorian rainforest. The outbreak appeared among military personnel who were detached to the frontier with Peru during an armed conflict between Ecuador and Peru. A multidisciplinary team was mobilized by the Ecuadorian Armed Forces to investigate and control the outbreak. A cross-sectional seroepidemiological survey was conducted in the military personnel of a jungle garrison and its …


Self -Reports Of Reasons For Hospitalization By Young Adults: Validity And Risk Factors For Discordance With Medical Records, S M Atiqur Rahman Jan 2000

Self -Reports Of Reasons For Hospitalization By Young Adults: Validity And Risk Factors For Discordance With Medical Records, S M Atiqur Rahman

All ETDs from UAB

Two studies were undertaken focusing on the validity of young adults' self-reports of reasons for hospitalization and factors affecting validity. The first study assessed the concordance of self-reports by young adults of reasons for hospitalization with their medical records, and the second examined factors associated with discordance between self-reports and medical records. The first study demonstrated that although concordance or accuracy of self-reports was more than 90% overall, for specific disease categories it ranged from 80% for infections to 100% for injuries/fractures and procedures including surgeries. There was no significant difference in degree of concordance by method of collecting self-reported …


State Safety Law And Loss Prevention Efforts As Predictors Of Safety Performance, Matthew Wayne Smitha Jan 2000

State Safety Law And Loss Prevention Efforts As Predictors Of Safety Performance, Matthew Wayne Smitha

All ETDs from UAB

Workers' compensation costs began a dramatic increase in the 1980s. During the late 1980s and early 1990s a wave of workplace safety initiatives and workers' compensation system reforms were promulgated by state governments. The state mandatory workplace safety initiatives can be classified into the following four specific categories: (a) mandatory employer health and safety program requirements, (b) mandatory employee safety committee requirements, (c) targeted safety initiatives directed toward high claims or high accident employers, and (d) state regulation of insurance carrier loss control services. Occupational injury rates declined in all states during the time period 1992–1997. The purpose of this …
