Predictors of Medication-Refill Adherence in an Indigent Rural Population
OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the association of medication refill adherence with demographic and prescription characteristics to determine whether such factors could guide intervention strategies in an indigent rural population. METHODS: The study was conducted at a University-based internal medicine practice serving an indigent rural population. Refill data for diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia drugs from a closed pharmacy system were …
The Effect of an Education and Feedback Intervention on Group-Model and Network-Model Health Maintenance Organization Physician Prescribing Behavior
The authors evaluated the effect of an educational and feedback intervention on H2-blocker prescribing patterns and determined, if such effects differed for network- versus group-model health maintenance organization (HMO) physicians and in academic versus nonacademic settings. Physicians were randomized to receive an educational memorandum alone or combined with feedback regarding their individual prescribing behavior. The memo suggested preferr…
Report of an association between race and thyroid stimulating hormone level
We examined the association between race and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level in 809 consecutive Black or White adults tested for mild suspicion of hypothyroidism with a normal TSH result. The mean TSH level of Blacks was 0.4 (SE .053) mU/L lower than that for Whites after age and sex adjustment, race explaining 6.5 percent of the variation in TSH levels. A validation sample yield similar results. This finding supports the possibility that…
