Harnessing information technology to revolutionise teaching, research and consultative service in health statistics.

Computers have traditionally been associated with health statistics because of the need to manage, process and analyse data. Over the last two years, the Division of Biostatistics and Health Informatics of the Department of Community, Occupational and Family Medicine at the National University of Singapore has been actively looking into ways in which informatics and telematics could be usefully applied to teaching and research in health statistics and in the provision of a statistical information service. This paper describes three projects, originating from the National University of Singapore, which provide an effective demonstration of the application of modern technology to an age-old discipline.

Women's health and women's work in health services: what statistics tell us.

This article draws together statistical information in several broad areas that relate to women's health, women's reproductive activities and women's occupations in Sweden. The statistical analysis reflects the major changes that have occurred in Swedish society and that have had a major impact on the health and well-being, as well as on the social participation rate, of women. Much of the data is drawn from a recent special effort at Statistic Sweden aimed at influencing the classification, collection and presentation of statistical data in all fields in such a way that family, working, education, health and other conditions of women can be more readily and equitably compared with those of men. In addition, social changes have seen the shifting of the responsibility of health care from the unpaid duties of women in the home to health care institutions, where female employees predominate. These trends are also discussed.
