Book excerpt: In 2004, California voters passed the Mental Health Services Act, which was intended to transform California's community mental health system from a crisis-driven system to one that included a focus on prevention and wellness. The vision was that prevention and early intervention (PEI) services comprised the first step in a continuum of services designed to identify early symptoms and prevent mental illness from becoming severe and disabling. Twenty percent of the act's funding was dedicated to PEI services. The act identified seven negative outcomes that PEI programs were intended to reduce: suicide, mental health-related incarcerations, school failure, unemployment, prolonged suffering, homelessness, and removal of children from the home. The Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission (MHSOAC) coordinated with the California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA), an independent administrative and fiscal intergovernmental agency, to seek development of a statewide framework for evaluating and monitoring the short- and long-term impact of PEI funding on the population. CalMHSA selected the RAND Corporation to develop a framework for the statewide evaluation. This report describes the approach, the data sources, and the frameworks developed: an overall approach framework and outcome-specific frameworks.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-term health effects of new onset hypertensive (NOH) disorders of pregnancy on women's health are unclear. This study examined the independent association between NOH (defined as preeclampsia or transient hypertension) and subsequent hypertension and all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. A secondary case-control analysis was conducted for methodological comparison for the mortality NOH relationship. The study population consisted of 1422 female participants in a prospective study of pregnancy, delivery, and child development between 1960 and 1963 who later participated in a re-examination between 1977 and 1979. Extensive demographic, pregnancy, health, and lifestyle information were collected during interviews and exams, and medical record abstraction provided information on medical conditions and prescription drug use. Current participant vital status was determined through Department of Motor Vehicle and National Death Index searches. The associations between NOH and hypertension and mortality were examined in multivariate regression models with adjustment for confounding variables. Women with a history of pregnancy complicated by preeclampsia or transient hypertension were found to have a three-fold increased risk of hypertension compared to women with normotensive pregnancies (OR1 = 3.16, 95% CI2: 1.72, 5.83 and OR = 2.96, 95% CI: 2.10, 4.18, respectively). Preeclampsia exposure was associated with a 5.8 mmHg increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and transient hypertension exposure was associated with a 4.9 mmHg increase in MAP. During the average 21 years of follow-up since the 1977-1979 examination, women with pregnancies complicated by transient hypertension had a two-fold increase in all-cause mortality risk and a three-fold increase in CVD mortality risk compared to women with normotensive pregnancies (RR3 = 1.96, 95% CI: 1.37, 2.80 and RR = 3.02, 95% CI: 1.72, 5.31, respectively). Preeclampsia was associated with greater than a four-fold increased risk of CVD mortality (RR = 4.54, 95% CI: 1.81, 11.38) but was not significantly associated with increased risk of total mortality compared to women with normotensive pregnancies (RR = 1.65, 95% CI: 0.8, 3.38). Results from the case-control study yielded results consistent with the full cohort analyses. The findings of this study suggest a history of NOH during pregnancy might be considered a risk factor or a marker for adverse cardiovascular sequelae later in life. 1OR = odds ratio; 2CI = confidence interval; 3RR = relative risk.
