Hospital Stroke Volume and Case-Fatality Revisited
BACKGROUND: A few studies have found an inverse association between hospital patient volume and case-fatality among stroke patients. However, the different stroke categorizations used in these studies might have influenced the findings. Furthermore, the relevance of the association observed remains questionable given that the relatively small magnitude may not support volume-based referral policies. We re-examined this association in a large nati…
Too Poor to Leave, Too Rich to Stay
Objectives. We analyzed the relationship between physician migration from developing source countries to more developed host countries (brain drain) and the developmental and global health profiles of source countries. Methods. We used a cross-section of 141 countries that lost emigrating physicians to the 4 major destinations: the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. For each source country, we defined physician migration de…
