    Carl A Huether, S Howe et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1984References: 7

    A telephone survey of 1,172 Hamilton County, Ohio residents indicated that for ever-married people, 25.1 per cent of those aged 18-45 and 33.8 per cent of those 30-45 had been sterilized. Blacks and Whites had comparable levels of sterilization but, among Blacks, female sterilization was over eight times as common as vasectomy, while for Whites, the ratio was 1.2. Catholics had only one-half the sterilization rate of Protestants. Race, sex, incom…

  • Projection of Down's syndrome births in the United States 1979-2000, and the potential effects of prenatal diagnosis

    Carl A HuetherARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1983References: 7

    This study projects the annual number of Down's syndrome (DS) births during 1979-2000 by maternal age categories, and estimates the effects of prenatal chromosomal diagnosis utilization on reducing these baseline projections. Assuming no reduction in DS births through prenatal diagnosis, projected DS births increase from about 4,300 in 1979 to 5,300 in 1990, where the level would remain approximately stable throughout the 1990s. Applying Ohio's 1…

    Estimates of single year maternal age risk rates for Down's Syndrome births to White residents of Ohio over the period 1970-79 are reported. The rates were estimated from birth certificate data, which first necessitated estimating the percentage of reporting of Down's Syndrome on Ohio birth certificates. Using data from cytogenetic laboratories within the state, percentages of Down's Syndrome cases reported were found to be 36.5 (319/875) for Whi…

    Helen Volodkevich, Carl A HuetherARTICLEBiodemography and Social Biology1981References: 3

    The objectives of this study were to determine current usage of amniocentesis by women of advanced maternal age in a southwestern Ohio county and to determine potential usage levels by surveying women not utilizing the procedure to understand their reasons. For women age 35 and older giving birth in Hamilton County, Ohio, the estimated percentage using amniocentesis was 3.9 in 1978, 7.6 in 1979, and 13.3 in 1980. Approximately comparable statewid…
