1990 census results.

Abstract

The April 1990 Census found that, for the most part, the major demographic trends of the 1970s continued into the 1980s. The population gain in California, Texas and Florida accounted for more than half of the national increase in the past decade. The rapid growth of these states was mainly attributed to the large influx of persons of Hispanic origin, as well as Asians and Pacific Islanders to California. The government acknowledged that there was an undercount but, nevertheless, decided not to adjust the original April 1990 Census numbers.

Surgical treatment of prostatic hyperplasia.

BACKGROUND: For more than seven decades prostates have been enucleated surgically, and for almost six decades they have been resected endoscopically. Results have been impressive and increasingly better, and the procedure has been reasonably safe. Variations to these two approaches have abounded and have made it safer, quicker, and easier, but never cheaper. METHODS: Currently, an abundance of alternatives have surfaced and for a variety of reasons. All alternatives share several shortcomings: results are not predictable, there is no tissue, and serendipitous prostate cancer could be missed. In addition, it may be categorically said that rarely does any of the alternatives achieve the effectiveness of prostatectomy that is appropriately indicated and properly performed. RESULTS: Urologists should participate in an objective assessment of the comparative merits and deficiencies of the variations of and alternatives to prostatectomy. Assessment of outcomes, safety, efficacy, and cost, as well as the development of guidelines, should continue. CONCLUSIONS: With our counsel and the government's reimbursement, the public will decide which alternatives are safe and reasonably effective and should survive.

Prognostic criteria in an epidemiological group of patients with multiple sclerosis: an exploratory study.

Demographic and clinical features and data on medical history and prior environmental exposure collected during an epidemiological long-term study of multiple sclerosis (MS) were tested for their possible prognostic value. Fifty-two benign MS patients were compared with 29 patients having a malignant course. A primary or secondary progressive course and cerebellar/lower brain-stem symptoms at onset indicated an unfavourable course, whereas no predictive value of sex or of any other type of onset symptomatology was found. Age at onset per se had no influence on prognosis but was associated with more rapid progression only by its relationship with a chronic progressive type of course. Prior illness, surgery, trauma and childhood exposure to defined environmental factors could not be identified as relevant for prognosis.

Hospitalization experiences in the long-term care trajectories of a Medicaid cohort.

Two groups of applicants (859 screened in the community and 607 screened in acute care) for Medicaid-reimbursed long-term care were followed for 1 year from their initial long-term care assessments. The role hospitalizations play in long-term care trajectories was explored. Results reinforce the need for active partnerships between acute care and long-term care multidisciplinary teams for ongoing management of a large number of Medicaid clients and their families.
