  • Acceptability of the Vaginal Diaphragm Among Current Users

    Open AccessJulie E Maher, S Marie Harvey et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Sexual and…2004Referencias: 2

    CONTEXT: Interest in the diaphragm has been growing, in part because it is a female-controlled method that might protect against HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). A better understanding of diaphragm acceptability is needed. METHODS: In 2001–2002, female members of a managed care organization were interviewed by telephone. The 215 participants, aged 19–49, who reported diaphragm use during the past three months were asked about t…

METHODS: A total of 1,173 hospitalized smokers were randomly assigned to either usual care or a stage-based bedside coun…

    Victor J Stevens, Herbert H Severson et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1995Citada por: 3Referencias: 16

Male users of moist snuff and chewing tobacco (n = 518) were identified by questionnaire in clinic waiting rooms and then randomly assigned to either usual care or intervention. The intervention include…

This study developed and evaluated a brief smoking-cessation and relapse-prevention program for hospitalized smokers. All hospitalized smokers (n = 1,119) were identified by questionnaire at hospital admission and then received either usual care or usual care plus a hospital-based smoking-cessation intervention regardless of interest in stopping smokin…

Oral health providers expressed an interest in further training in how to help their tobacco-using patients to…

  • Sociobiology, Science, and Human Behavior

    Victor J StevensARTICLEMonthly Review1980
