Analysis of Shigella isolates referred for serotyping to the Central Shigella Reference Laboratory has revealed a slight predominance of S. sonnei (47%) over S. flexneri (44%) in Israel. In female patients, the predominance of S. sonnei isolates was more accentuated (54 v. 37.5% for S. flexneri). On the other hand, an increased incidence of S. flexneri was observed in military personnel (59 v. 32% for S. sonnei), and even more so in the Arab population (69 v. 19%). Incidence peaked in summer (July, August) for all subgroups.
The State University of New York, Stony Brook (SUNY-SB) Pathways to Midwifery Program offers a distributed learning curriculum that is unique among American nurse-midwifery education programs. The Pathways to Midwifery Program provides asynchronic, computer-mediated instruction. Community-based faculty coordinate, supervise, and evaluate the clinical education of students. The SUNY-SB model offers an opportunity to increase dramatically the number of students who can receive the curriculum. It also provides distinct advantages in maintaining a curriculum database that reflects rapidly changing clinical science and that takes advantage of vast educational resources available through related computer networks. By creating a classroom without walls, the program is cost-effective.
