Updating Medicare's Physician Fees: The Sustainable Growth Rate Methodology, Laura A. Dummit

National Health Policy Forum

Medicare’s method to annually update the fees it pays physicians has been under fire for some time—specifically, since the method determined that physician fees should be reduced rather than increased. The update method, called the sustainable growth rate (SGR), was implemented to control the growth in Medicare physician spending. Yet Congress, in response to physician concerns about beneficiary access to care, has acted to avert physician fee cuts since 2003. Although this signals dissatisfaction with the SGR methodology, there is yet to be a widely accepted physician fee update proposal that balances federal budgetary realities with the need to ensure …

An Anatomy Based Health Education Curriculum Taught By Medical Students May Improve High School Students Health Knowledge, Jason Knight

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

To date, few high school based interventions have been shown to have lasting effects on adolescents' health behaviors. The need for health interventions targeting adolescents is underscored by data showing that several health behaviors with significant short and long term adverse effects begin in early adolescence and become progressively more prevalent toward late adolescence. This project tested the efficacy of a novel anatomy based health education curriculum at increasing health knowledge. The course was taught by first year Yale medical students. The curriculum placed emphasis on nutrition, physical activity and infectious disease. Forty Juniors from Career High School visited Yale's …

The Epidemiology And Clinical Presentation Of Leprosy In The Pediatric Population Of Paraguay, Jessica Anne Kattan

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

Background: Several aspects concerning the biology and epidemiology of leprosy remain unknown. It has been recognized that the study of children with leprosy could provide important insight into unanswered questions, particularly if disease manifestations are carefully observed. Methods: A retrospective chart review of 308 cases of children aged 0-14 y/o was conducted at the Ministry of Health Leprosy Department in Asuncion, Paraguay. Data regarding age, gender, leprosy classification, transmission, detection, clinical presentation, presence and class of reaction, and disability were abstracted. Results: The study group ranged from 2 to 14 years of age. The incidence rate and the risk of …

Child Abuse And Bone Fractures In Young Children: Local Trends Over Three Decades, Ilse Larson

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

The purpose of this study was to determine the patterns of fractures in children less than three years of age that are distinctive of abuse, and to examine changes in the frequency of abusive fractures in young children evaluated at a major pediatric hospital over three time periods: 1979-1983 (early), 1991-1994 (middle), and 1999-2002 (late). All children 0 to 36 months of age who were treated for bone fractures at a major medical center from 1/99 to 12/02 were selected. Medical records were abstracted for sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, and radiographs were examined. Using specific criteria, each case was rated …

Dysregulation Of Sodium Channels In A Rat Model Of Absence Epilepsy, Davender Khera

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

Absence epilepsy is a generalized form of epilepsy where spike-wave discharges (SWDs) involve both hemispheres of the brain and thereby alter consciousness. Recent evidence by Meeren et al (2002) in the WAG/Rij rat model of absence epilepsy points to a cortical focus of SWDs before rapid generalization of the SWDs. This focus belongs in the peri-oral area of the somatosensory cortex, and it was found to consistently lead SWDs in other cortical and subcortical areas. With this recent finding, it seems plausible that a defect lies in this focal region of the cortex, leading to SWD in the WAG/Rij model. …

Tetrakis(N-Ethyl-9-Oxo-4-Azonia-5-Aza-9h-Fluorene) Tetra-Μ3-Iodo-Hexa-Μ2-Iodo-Dodecaiodohexabismuthate, Meredith A. Tershany, Andrea M. Goforth, Mark D. Smith, Leroy Peterson Jr., Hans-Conrad Zur Loye

Faculty Publications

The new iodobismuthate compound (C₁₃H₁₁N₂O)₄[Bi₆I₂₂] has been synthesized solvothermally by reacting BiI₃, Zn(NO₃)₂·6H₂O and 4,5-diazafluoren-9-one in a water/ethanol solvent mixture. The asymmetric unit of the compound contains two independent [N-ethyl-4,5-dafo]⁺ cations and one-half of a centrosymmetric [Bi₆I₂₂]^4- anion. The average terminal Bi-I, Bi-₂-I and Bi-₃-I bond lengths in the anion are 2.8923 (2), 3.1403 (2) and 3.3022 (2) Å, respectively.

Lost In Cyberspace: Tracking Fugitive Web Resources, Bette Rathe, Wendy Highby, Stephanie Wiegand

University Libraries Publications

Can researchers in 2006 locate web resources cited in graduate theses from 2001-2004? Data from a citation analysis study reveals the astounding number of altered, moved, or lost websites. This study quantitatively describes a particular manifestation of the ubiquitous but often undocumented problem of web resource instability. It points to many possible innovative solutions, such as instructional and archival interventions by librarians.

Differentiation Of Appendiceal Carcinoids By Marker Gene Expression, Igor Latic

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

Objective: To utilize differential gene expression of candidate markers to discriminate benign APCs (APCs) from malignant and mixed cell APCs. Background Data: Considerable controversy exists in regard to the appropriate surgical management of APCs since standard clinical and immunohistochemical methods cannot reliably determine whether an APC is indolent or aggressive. We have identified five differentially expressed genes: nucleosome assembly protein 1-like 1 [NAP1L1]; melanoma antigen D2 [MAGE-D2]; metastasis-associated protein 1 [MTA1]; NAcht Leucine-rich-repeat Protein 1 [NALP1] and Chromogranin A [CgA] that define gut neuroendocrine (NE) Enterochromaffin (EC) cell behavior. We hypothesized that APC (APC) malignancy, also derived from EC cells, …

The nation-state—as opposed to its rivals—offers an opportunity to reconcile the old dilemma of unity vs. diversity. This interplay of individuals, this synergy of forces, this weaving of one fabric out of many threads, has given the West its vitality and cohesion. But Pierre Manent warns that the West risks forfeiting its advantage through the erosion of its political forms, institutions, and families – through globalization and the rationalization of its own liberal values:

[C]ommerce, right, morality: these are the three systems, the three empires that promise exit from the political. Each in its own form: commerce, according to the …
