This article examines the model of need assessment commonly used in social service programs for older adults. Whereas this model defines need as an individual attribute, remediable through programmatic intervention, an alternative formulation suggests that organizational imperatives shape the definition of client need while obscuring their own role in the production of this information. A case study and historical analysis assess the roots of this process and its consequences for clients, staff, and aging programs.

OBJECTIVE: In order to define clear urodynamic obstruction, all patients from unclassified zone of the nomograms are to be allocated in the zone of obstruction or out of obstruction combining the parameters of different nomograms. Then, to analyze difference of the physical and radiological variables between obstructed and unobstructed groups. Finally, to determine the percentage of the patients with additional urinary bladder co morbidities in clear obstruction zone. SAMPLE AND METHODOLOGY: 102 patients with proved BPE underwent complete urody...

In a comparison of rates of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining malignancies (ADMs) for 1989-1996 versus 1997-2002, we found a decrease in ADMs (rate ratio, 0.31; P

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Effective antiretroviral therapy use has resulted in a large number of older individuals living with HIV. Recent literature is reviewed with respect to the incidence and risk factors for cancer in HIV patients. RECENT FINDINGS: Previous studies have demonstrated substantial declines in AIDS-defining malignancies in the era of antiretroviral therapy, with clear links to better immune function. Increases in non-AIDS-defining malignancies such as Hodgkin's disease, skin, lung, anal, and kidney cancers have been noted by some but...

BACKGROUND: The extent to which mortality differs following individual acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining events (ADEs) has not been assessed among patients initiating combination antiretroviral therapy. METHODS: We analyzed data from 31,620 patients with no prior ADEs who started combination antiretroviral therapy. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate mortality hazard ratios for each ADE that occurred in >50 patients, after stratification by cohort and adjustment for sex, HIV transmission group, number of antir...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate deaths from AIDS-defining malignancies (ADM) and non-AIDS-defining malignancies (nADM) in the D:A:D Study and to investigate the relationship between these deaths and immunodeficiency. DESIGN: Observational cohort study. METHODS: Patients (23 437) were followed prospectively for 104 921 person-years. We used Poisson regression models to identify factors independently associated with deaths from ADM and nADM. Analyses of factors associated with mortality due to nADM were repeated after excluding nADM known to be associated...

In this paper, I examine how scientific disciplines define their boundaries by defining the publics with whom they engage. The case study is an episode in the development of early American sociology. In response to the dual challenge of credibility set up by the conflict between religious Baconian science and secular positivist science, key actors engaged in specific strategies of boundary-work to create their desired "sociological public"--a hybrid form of science-public relations that appealed to hostile university scientists while excluding ...

Sumatriptan--an oral dose-defining study. The Oral Sumatriptan Dose-Defining Study Group. [No authors listed] Three oral doses of sumatriptan, 100, 200 and 300 mg, given as dispersible tablets, were compared in the acute treatment of migraine in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of 1,130 patients from 51 centres in eight countries. Patients treated up to three migraine attacks at home over a 3-month period and recorded the results on a diary card. Safety follow-ups were performed monthly at a clinic. All doses of sumat...

Patients treated up to three migraine attacks at home over a 3-month period and recorded the results on a diary card. Safety follow-ups were performed monthly at a clinic. All doses of sumatriptan were significantly (p less than 0.001) more effective than placebo at relieving headache within 2 h of tre...
