Prevalence of post Covid-19 condition and associations with risk factors among U.S. adults
Introduction During the COVID-19 pandemic, between 12 and 20% of US adults were identified as having post-COVID-19 condition, commonly referred to as ‘Long COVID’. These individuals maintained symptoms of COVID-19 for 3 months or longer following their illness but lacked an active infection. Using the Center for Disease Control’s 2023 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, our hypotheses were that adults who did not meet the 2018 Physical Ac…

The cost-effectiveness of community health workers delivering free diarrhoea treatment
Community health workers (CHWs) are a vital part of the health infrastructure in Uganda and in many other low- and middle-income countries. While the need for CHWs is clear, it is less clear how they should dispense health products to maximize the health benefits to their community. In this study, we assess the cost-effectiveness of several competing CHW distribution strategies in the context of treatment for child diarrhoea. We used data from a …
Cross-subsidies for improved sanitation in low income settlements
Most residents of the developing world do not have access to safely managed sanitation services, and large financial investments are required to address this need. Here we evaluate surcharges on water/sewerage tariffs as an option for supporting these investments in low-income neighborhoods. We investigated willingness-to-pay (WTP) for a pro-poor sanitation surcharge among customers of two urban water utilities in Kenya. Applying qualitative and …

Community Health Workers Versus Nurses as Counselors or Case Managers in a Self-Help Diabetes Management Program

Our open-label, randomized controlled trial determined the effectiveness of a self-help intervention among Korean Americans aged 35 to 80 years in the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. We measured and analyzed physiological and …

Pathology of the Capitalist Spirit
Pathology of the Capitalist Spirit is about capital and about the economic system that bears its name. In this book, Levine argues that our pursuit of ever-more wealth in the form of capital expresses
Spirit of Capitalism
For the early capitalist, the pleasure sought in acquisition was not in consuming wealth, but in owning it. Tis meant that the acquisitive spirit combined an intense desire to enjoy the pleasures of life with an equally intense urge to exert control over desire by negating it. For the modern-day capitalist, the acquisitive drive has been corrupted by a growing preoccupation with those ephemeral worldly enjoyments the early capitalist viewed with …
He drove forward with a yell
We use Homer and Sun Tzu as a background to better understand and reformulate confrontation, anger and violence in medicine, contrasting an unproductive 'love of war' with a productive 'art of war' or 'art of strategy'. At first glance, it is a paradox that the healing art is not pacific, but riddled with militaristic language and practices. On closer inspection, we find good reasons for this cultural paradox yet regret its presence. Drawing on i…
The Impact of International Medical Graduate Status on Primary Care Physicians’ Choice of Specialist
BACKGROUND: Approximately one fourth of practicing physicians in the United States graduated from medical schools in other countries. It is unknown how the role of international medical graduate status affects physician decision-making. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine whether a primary care physicians' knowledge of a specialist's international medical graduate status affects his or her decision to refer patients to that sp…

Information Aggregation, Security Design, and Currency Swaps
A security design model shows that multinational firms needing to finance their operations should issue different securities to investors in different countries in order to aggregate their disparate information about domestic and foreign cash flows. However, if the firm becomes bankrupt, investors may face uncertain costs of reorganizing assets in a foreign country and thus may value foreign assets at their average value. This penalizes superior …

What Works at Work
This article discusses why it is difficult to measure the effects of management practices on organizational performance. In spite of these difficulties, a collage of evidence suggests that innovative workplace practices can increase performance, primarily through the use of systems of related practices that enhance worker participation, make work design less rigid, and decentralize managerial tasks. A majority of U.S. businesses have adopted some…

For Their Own Reasons
In an attempt to direct attention away from measures of central tenden cy, this essay focuses on the dispersion of marriage ages derived from the family reconstitution study of Shepshed, Leicestershire, 1600-1851. The evidence shows that there was no connection between "inheritance" and the timing of mar riage-in fact, most marriages took place well before paternal death. Birth-parity seems to have had little impact on male age at marriage, while…
The demographic implications of rural industrialization
Recombinant Family Formation Strategies1
In contrast to the 'modernization' model of demographic change, popularized by the publications of the European Fertility Project, this paper sets the revolution in family life in an historical perspective. First, I briefly consider the creation of a distinctly north-west European system of production and reproduction; second, I discuss how this regime led to the emergence of a revolutionary solution to the population/resources squeeze in early m…

The reliability of parochial registration and the representativeness of family reconstitution
In this study, cross-matching between the 1851 Census and the reconstituted families from the two Leicestershire villages of Shepshed and Bottesford is used to determine the changing adequacy of parochial registration during the period of the Industrial Revolution. It was found that the “reconstitutable minority” were quite conscientious in recording their children’s births. Moreover, by supplementing the family reconstitution study with informat…
History and Social Structure in the Study of Contemporary Indonesia
Harry Benda has characterized theorizing about post-independence Indonesia as essentially presenting us highly sophisticated and persuasive answers to an intrinsically mistaken, or irrelevant, question.I Although, as we shall see, his own analysis shares the same basic failings found in those he criticizes, his complaint is well taken. Those who have attempted solutions to the problem of making sense of the last twenty years of Indonesian history…

Treatment environment and staff ideology in two British mental hospitals
Hypotheses were derived from assumptions inherent in two contrasting conceptions of a treatment environment, attitudinal and ecological. Research was conducted in two different British mental hospitals, using scales from the OMI and the CTE. As predicted, the OMI scales were related only to staff attributes and did not discriminate among environments of institutions or units that differed in program, philosophy, organization, or type of patients.…
