Investing in success
The ECP allows some students to complete medical school who otherwise may not have been able to do so. This analysis has provided valuable information that was used to improve the program, allowing CHM to continue its mission of training a diverse set of students to be exemplary physicians
Documenting clinical performance problems among medical students
Our review form allowed clinical faculty to validate pass/fail decisions based on standardized patient ratings. Detailed information about performance problems contributes to learner feedback and curricular enhancement to guide remediation planning and faculty development
Using Pictures to Evoke Spiritual feelings in Breast Cancer Patients
The Emotional Journey of Women Experiencing a Breast Abnormality
Using grounded theory, a multidisciplinary study team compared the narratives of 30 women who had recently experienced a breast cancer scare. Even though 10 women received a benign diagnosis, all women reported a difficult time prediagnosis, characterized by an array of emotions and contemplation of the meaning of life. Diagnosis separated the two groups with emotional relief dominant for the benign group and intensification of emotions for the c…
Legacy of Abuse in a Sacred Profession
Medicine is a sacred profession. Those called to enter it are largely kind, compassionate, insightful people who understand the nature of suffering and want to live their professional lives in service to relieving it.

I will examine two specific and dominant themes to explain my position-the culture of silence that has until recently surrounded medical error, and the methods emp…
Association of age at menarche with adult leg length and trunk height
Given the height-breast cancer risk association, the emerging evidence linking breast cell proliferation to hormones associated with growth, and the finding in this study that the relationship between age at menarche and adult height no longer exists for women born in 1966 or later, it is possible that the long-established relationship between age at menarche and breast cancer risk may also no longer exist
Observation Interval for Evaluating the Costs of Surgical Interventions for Older Women With a New Diagnosis of Breast Cancer
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the episodic costs of surgical treatments for breast cancer. METHODS: The surgical treatment period as the 6 weeks following diagnosis is defined. Using a sample of 205 women aged 65 and older and their Medicare claim files, the cost of treatment is estimated and the progression from first to subsequent surgical procedures during the 6-week interval is demonstrated with a decision tree. Two equations are then estimated: the…
