Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of HIV-positive women give birth every year. Further, because many pregnant women are not tested for HIV and therefore do not receive treatment, the number of children born with HIV is still unacceptably high. What can we do to eliminate this tragic and costly inheritance? In response to a congressional request, this book evaluates the extent to which state efforts have been effective in reducing the perinatal transmission of HIV. The committee recommends that testing HIV be a routine part of prenatal care, and that health care providers notify women that HIV testing is part of the usual array of prenatal tests and that they have an opportunity to refuse the HIV test. This approach could help both reduce the number of pediatric AIDS cases and improve treatment for mothers with AIDS. Reducing the Odds will be of special interest to federal, state, and local health policymakers, prenatal care providers, maternal and child health specialists, public health practitioners, and advocates for HIV/AIDS patients.

Book Restandardization of the Armed Forces Women s Selection Test  AFWST 5 and 6

Download or read book Restandardization of the Armed Forces Women s Selection Test AFWST 5 and 6 written by Leonard C. Seeley and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since operational conversion tables for the Armed Forces Women's Selection Test (AFWST-5 and -6)-based on a 1961 Air Force standardization--appeared to be scaled somewhat high for WAC potential enlistees, research was undertaken to bring the norms up to date. The tests were restandardized on a sample of 400 WAC enlisted women going through basic training at the WAC Center, and the new norms instituted. As a further evaluation, the basic trainee sample was doubled by including 400 women entering basic training in succeeding classes, and norms were again computed, this time on the larger group. Data were also obtained on 1000 examinees processed at Armed Forces Examining Stations in order to include rejected applicants, and norms were computed on the wider range sample. At the same time, data were obtained by which to analyze the effectiveness of the AFWST as predictor of performance in basic training and in a clerical training course. In the conversion based on the first WAC basic training sample, percentile scores for a given raw score were higher than in the earlier Air Force conversion, and permitted acceptance of a larger percentage of applicants. The two subsequent conversions based on WAC samples were almost identical with the first. The AFWST was found to be an effective predictor of academic grade in basic training. With respect to the clerical course, prediction was substantial both for academic grade and for total grade.

Book What Every Woman Should Know about Cervical Cancer

Download or read book What Every Woman Should Know about Cervical Cancer written by Nenad Markovic and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-19 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book (an updated and extended edition) is about mobilizing women and health care policy makers and providers to unite their efforts in a single strategy for fighting cervical cancer worldwide. The objective of this strategy would be to reverse cervical cancer prevalence and mortality rates among all 2.4 billion women at risk and to achieve this goal within 10-15 years of implementation. Cervical Cancer Screening (Pap test, VIA, VILI, or HPV) failed to stop cervical cancer worldwide simply because many countries could not afford developing infrastructure necessary to carry on the global strategy, and because the outreach could not accomplish the targeted 51% of the population at risk. In 2015, there is still 600,000 women getting cervical cancer annually and 300,000 of them die. Every minute one woman gets cervical cancer and every 2 minutes one woman dies from this preventable disease. In 21st Century the Information Technology (IT) Revolution has made substantial impact on medicine enabling remote points-of care, scattered around the world, to be e-connected with experts in distant medical centers and to obtain quality diagnosis and proper guidelines for curative therapy of early stages of cervical cancer. Low frequency of costly interventions needed makes IT-based screening financially and socially beneficial for mass screening. This new Mobile Health technology with the Global Strategy for Fighting Cervical Cancer is subject to elaboration in our book as the new hope when old efforts have failed to stop the world “epidemics” of this grave but preventable disease. The language is adapted for easy reading and understanding by professionals and lay-persons. This book is intended for women at risk for cervical cancer, their health care providers, health insurance companies, government responsible for making health policy and healthcare industry because all of them have special role in the new Global Strategy elaborated in details in this book.

Book Opportunities in Neuroscience for Future Army Applications

Download or read book Opportunities in Neuroscience for Future Army Applications written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-06-16 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances and major investments in the field of neuroscience can enhance traditional behavioral science approaches to training, learning, and other applications of value to the Army. Neural-behavioral indicators offer new ways to evaluate how well an individual trainee has assimilated mission critical knowledge and skills, and can also be used to provide feedback on the readiness of soldiers for combat. Current methods for matching individual capabilities with the requirements for performing high-value Army assignments do not include neuropsychological, psychophysiological, neurochemical or neurogenetic components; simple neuropsychological testing could greatly improve training success rates for these assignments. Opportunities in Neuroscience for Future Army Applications makes 17 recommendations that focus on utilizing current scientific research and development initiatives to improve performance and efficiency, collaborating with pharmaceutical companies to employ neuropharmaceuticals for general sustainment or enhancement of soldier performance, and improving cognitive and behavioral performance using interdisciplinary approaches and technological investments. An essential guide for the Army, this book will also be of interest to other branches of military, national security and intelligence agencies, academic and commercial researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and others interested in applying the rapid advances in neuroscience to the performance of individual and group tasks.
