An educational initiative in response to identified PrEP prescribing needs among PCPs in the Southern U.S
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is an effective HIV prevention method, but many primary care physicians (PCPs) have not incorporated PrEP into practice. While PrEP may be a key strategy to reducing high HIV transmission rates in the southern US, knowledge about PrEP prescribing patterns among PCPs in this region is lacking. An online survey was sent to a large network of PCPs at an academic medical center in North Carolina in October 2015. The su…
Structure, Process, and Outcomes in Stroke Rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The health services research framework of structure, process, and outcome is used commonly to examine quality of care, and it indicates that structure influences process, which in turn influences outcomes. However, little empirical work has been done to test this hypothesis, particularly for medical rehabilitation. OBJECTIVES: To determine if, among stroke patients, (1) structure of care was associated with process of care, and (2) st…
The Relationship Between Glycemic Control and Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients With Non-Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus
The relationship between glycemic control and health-related quality of life was examined in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Within the context of a randomized controlled trial, 275 patients with NIDDM receiving primary care from a Veteran's Administration general medical clinic were enrolled and monitored for 1 year. Glycemic control (glycosylated hemoglobin levels) and health-related quality of life (Medical Outco…
Role perceptions of divorcing parents
Using interview data from a convenience sample of 101 divorcing parents, we examined the gender roles of parents during the transition from marriage to divorce. We found mat the women, who most often initiated divorce, were changing their roles and that this was related to marital dissatisfactions. Factor analysis indicated that real differences existed in how mothers and fathers perceived the coparental relationship. Mothers saw the relationship…
Preliminary Evidence on Retention Rates of Primary Care Physicians in Rural and Urban Areas
The primary study objectives were to 1) determine how many physicians entered primary care practice in rural and urban counties of North Carolina in the 1981 to 1989 period and 2) estimate their length of tenure in these areas. The secondary objective was to identify the physician's demographic, training, and practice characteristics that influence geographic location of practice and length of tenure. A cohort of 1,947 physicians was identified f…
