Manipulações Post-Mortem Do Corpo Humano
Este trabalho é uma exploração das diferentes estratégias desenvolvidas pelas pessoas para responder ao problema do luto através das ações realizadas no cadáver. A manipulação post-mortem dos corpos regularmente fornece ao arqueólogo "sepulturas secundárias" e ossos "perturbados". Estas duas categorias são referidas com o termo genérico de “ossos na posição secundária” para expressar que os ossos não estão mais conectados e que a posição original…
Building the Next Generation of Researchers
PROBLEM: Dissemination and implementation (D&I) science provides the tools needed to close the gap between known intervention strategies and their effective application. The authors report on the Mentored Training for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Cancer (MT-DIRC) program-a D&I training program for postdoctoral or early-career cancer prevention and control scholars. APPROACH: MT-DIRC was a 2-year training institute in which fellows…
Californians Linking Action with Science for Prevention of Breast Cancer (CLASP-BC)—Phase 2
Californians Linking Action with Science for Prevention of Breast Cancer (CLASP-BC) is part of California Breast Cancer Research Program's (CBCRP) Initiative strategic priority to disseminate and implement high-impact, population-based primary prevention interventions. CLASP-BC is informed by six years of funded program dissemination and implementation (D&I) research and evaluation conducted by the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer (CPAC) throu…
Doing What We Know, Knowing What to Do
Given the lack of progress in breast cancer prevention, the California Breast Cancer Research Program (CBCRP) plans to apply current scientific knowledge about breast cancer to primary prevention at the population level. This paper describes the first phase of Californians Linking Action with Science for Prevention of Breast Cancer (CLASP-BC). The foci of Phase 1 are building coalitions and coalition capacity building through community engagement…
Grenouilles et crapauds en contexte funéraire dans le monde gréco-romain
The main purpose of this paper is to make an inventory of archaeological finds staging frogs in a sepulchral context or in a ritual context related to the World of the Dead. The analysis of the archaeological settings may enable us to have a fresh look at the usual interpretations about the presence of the batrachian in Greco-Roman tombs. also, confronting it with the ancient sources allows us to bring new interpretative propositions
Du provisoire conçu pour durer
Lorsque les funérailles se déroulent en plusieurs temps, le premier dépôt est généralement considéré comme un « dispositif provisoire » de traitement du corps différant clairement du second dépôt qui est un « dispositif définitif », conçu pour durer. Si ce dernier recèle des traces matérielles de la relation privilégiée que les survivants entretenaient avec le défunt, le premier, en revanche, apparait généralement comme peu important, les restes …
The Need for Economic Evaluation in Primary Prevention of Cancer
Research Dissemination and Diffusion
In moving health and social service programs from planning into action, it is essential to understand the extent to which the knowledge gained from research should influence the actions taken by organizations and agencies that provide services (e.g., government, nongovernment organizations [NGOs]). The complexity of the challenges in translating lessons learned from science into different service settings, as well as into public policy, requires …

Approaching Health Disparities From a Population Perspective
Addressing health disparities has been a national challenge for decades. The National Institutes of Health-sponsored Centers for Population Health and Health Disparities are the first federal initiative to support transdisciplinary multilevel research on the determinants of health disparities. Their novel research approach combines population, clinical, and basic science to elucidate the complex determinants of health disparities. The centers are…
The Effect of Race and Sex on Physicians' Recommendations for Cardiac Catheterization
BACKGROUND: Epidemiologic studies have reported differences in the use of cardiovascular procedures according to the race and sex of the patient. Whether the differences stem from differences in the recommendations of physicians remains uncertain. METHODS: We developed a computerized survey instrument to assess physicians' recommendations for managing chest pain. Actors portrayed patients with particular characteristics in scripted interviews abo…
Acculturation and breast cancer screening among Hispanic women in New York City
OBJECTIVES: This study investigated whether acculturation was associated with the receipt of clinical breast examinations and mammograms among Colombian, Ecuadorian, Dominican, and Puerto Rican women aged 18 to 74 years in New York City in 1992. METHODS: A bilingual, targeted, random-digit-dialed telephone survey was conducted among 908 Hispanic women from a population-based quota sample. Outcome measures included ever and recent use of clinical …
The costs and effects of cervical and breast cancer screening in a public hospital emergency room. The Cancer Control Center of Harlem
OBJECTIVES: This study assessed the cost-effectiveness of cervix and breast cancer screening in a public hospital emergency room. METHODS: Age-eligible women with nonurgent conditions and without recent screening were offered screening by a nurse. A decision analysis compared the costs and outcomes of emergency room screening and standard hospital screening efforts. RESULTS: The undiscounted cost-effectiveness results for establishing new program…
Validation of an Acculturation Measure for Hispanic Adolescents
Based on the continuing growth and youthfulness of the Hispanic population in the United States, valid cultural measures are needed for Hispanic adolescents. Hispanics living in this country experience acculturation or cultural change during their exposure to American culture. A matched sample of 994 Hispanic students and their parents completed acculturation measures. Scores on a 10-item acculturation scale completed by the adolescents' parents …
The late-stage diagnosis of colorectal cancer
OBJECTIVES: This study described factors related to colorectal cancer stage at diagnosis. METHODS: Logistic regression analyses were used on data from the New York State Tumor Registry and US Census area-level social class indicators. RESULTS: After the effects of other predictors were controlled for, the odds of late-stage cancer increased as age decreased; women and African Americans were significantly more likely to have late stage than men an…
Using census and mortality data to target small areas for breast, colorectal, and cervical cancer screening
OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to develop and validate quantitative models for estimating cancer incidence in small areas. METHODS. The outcome for each cancer site was the incidence of disease that had reached a late stage at the time of diagnosis. Two sets of predictors were used: (1) census-based demographic variables and (2) census-based demographic variables together with the cancer-specific mortality rate. RESULTS. The best models a…
Predictors of smoking prevalence among New York Latino youth
BACKGROUND. We examined prevalence rates and risk factors for smoking among Latino adolescents, using a multiethnic sample of sixth- and seventh-grade students (n = 3129) in 47 New York City public and parochial schools. METHODS. The students completed questionnaires; self-reported smoking data were collected by means of the "bogus pipeline" technique. The largest group of Latino students (43%) was Puerto Rican; 20% were of Dominican background, …
Determinants of late stage diagnosis of breast and cervical cancer
Previous studies of the relationship between cancer stage, age, and race have not controlled for social class and health care setting. Logistic regression analyses, using information from the New York State Tumor Registry and area-level social class indicators, demonstrated that, in New York City, older Black, lower class women in public hospitals were 3.75 and 2.54 times more likely to have late stage breast or cervical cancer, respectively, tha…
