Seasonal variation in suicide and homicide
Seasonal or monthly fluctuations in suicides and homicides were analysed using US mortality data for the years 1969–78, using periodic regression analysis. The results were generally consistent (year-to-year) over the 10-year period. The pattern for suicide was distinctly seasonal: it was above average all spring and below average all winter. For homicides, the pattern was more monthly, with July–September and December being above average times a…
Underrecording of Infant Homicide in the United States
Homicide rates for infants dropped suddenly between 1967 and 1969. The abrupt nature of this decline suggested the change was artifactual. Investigation suggests that two classification revisions instituted at this time were causes of this decline: changes in related codes set forth in the Eighth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases, Adapted, and revision of the standard certificate of death in 1968. Infant homicides may have …
Child abuse in Georgia
From July 1975 through December 1979, the Georgia Department of Protective Services Central Registry recorded population-based data on confirmed, non-confirmable, and ruled-out child abuse reports. We propose that reporting biases are reflected in the differential characteristics of confirmed and ruled-out reports of child abuse. Characteristics, households, or groups equally or more prevalent in the latter category cannot necessarily be consider…
Effects of restricted public funding for legal abortions
At hospitals in three cities where public funding for legal abortions had been restricted, we reviewed the records of women with complications of all types of abortions. We compared the number of complications in the year before funding restriction with the number in the following year, during restriction. For complications of illegal and spontaneous abortions, we found no significant change in either the number or proportion of publicly funded h…
Seasonal variation in spontaneous abortions
Using a national sample of hospital discharges, we found identical seasonal patterns for spontaneous abortions and conceptions but no significant seasonal variation in the rate of spontaneous abortions per 1,000 conceptions. The differences between our findings and those of previous investigators of spontaneous abortion may reflect our more comprehensive definition of spontaneous abortion, our more complete estimate of the monthly number of conce…
Use of automated record linkage to measure patient fertility after family planning service
Record linkage was used to identify births in 1974 to patients who had received contraceptive services from public family planning clinics in metropolitan Atlanta. The record linkage methodology is described. Results indicated that patient educational level, age, contraceptive choice, and race were the factors most associated with subsequent patient fertility. Black teenage patients experienced the highest fertility. Patients age 20 years and ove…
The underregistration of neonatal deaths
We reviewed the neonatal outcome of 3,369 infants who weighed less than or equal to 1500 grams and who were born in Georgia during the years 1974--76. We matched 1,465 of these infants with a death certificate registered in the State's Vital Records. Upon review of the hospital records of the remaining infants, we identified 453 infants that died during the neonatal period without a death certificate being registered. Subsequently, we compared th…
The health impact of restricting public funds for abortion. October 10, 1977--June 10, 1978
The Center for Disease Control (CDC), Atlanta, Georgia implemented an eight-month prospective surveillance system in 24 hospitals distributed among states with and without public funding for abortion. Out of 3,157 visits for abortion-related complications, only 10 women gave a history of non-physician or self-induced abortion and none were Medicaid recipients. The small number of hospitals located in non-funded states and the smaller numbers of w…
Social status and season of birth
Periodic regression analysis was applied to data from Fulton County, Georgia, 1967–77, to test for a relationship between social status and season of birth in two population groups, whites and all other races. Results suggest that for both groups seasonal variation in births tends to increase with lower social status. Proportionately more births to lower status women, especially in the all‐other‐races group, occured during August. Due to timing o…

IUD Insertion Practices in the United States and Puerto Rico, 1973
Retrospective reports on IUD insertions during the first 6 months of 1973 were provided by 16893 physicians residing in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. This was 48.9% of the physicians listed in the master files of the American Medical Association and the American Osteopathic Association as having an interest in obstetrics and gynecology public health general preventive medicine or family practice. Information elicited by interviews with 1% of the nonr…
