It should also be helpful to medical students studying for the behavioral sciences section of Part 1 of the national boards, to physicians taking the behavioral sciences portion of the FLEX exam, and to psychiatrists prepar­ ing for their American Board of Psychiatry certifying exam. Behavior is a product of brain function and is manifested by actions in response to sitmuli. It is fundamental to the maintenance of health, and plays a role in causing and intensifying many illnesses. Abnormal behaviors can re­ veal to us, and even allow us to localize, brain dysfunction and disease. And they can cause, for patients, their families, and friends, considerable suffer­ ing. On an intellectual level, trying to comprehend the behavior of our patients (and our own behavior as well), contributes to making medicine a truly intriguing profession. Behavioral science is not, as you might suspect, synonymous with psychiatry. When I began teaching behavioral sciences 7 years ago, I was struck by how little I knew about behavior and behavioral sciences. The scope of the behavioral sciences is so vast that the field, as well as the discip­ lines of which it is composed, is unmasterable. Entire books, and entire careers in research, could be devoted to subjects that are merely touched upon in this book. Thus, for any individual subject this brief book cannot properly convey the depth or sophistication of a high-quality monograph or years of clinical experience. Nevertheless, there is merit in brevity, for clini­ cians and medical students are busy people who appreciate a book that gets to the point: Clinical Behavioral Science is certainly an attempt to pare down subjects to their essentials. It begins with the biological sciences as they pertain to behavior, moves to areas that are on the interface between the biological and the social sciences, and concludes with social sciences and social issues. The reader must realize, of course, that the dichotomy between the biological and social sciences is an arbitrary one-biological and social influences are usually interwined. As a teacher of medical students and physicians, and as a practicing psychiatrist, I rely heavily upon the information contained in this text. I hope the reader finds it an equally helpful companion.

  • Diversity and Disparity: GIS and Small-Area Analysis in Six Chicago Neighborhoods
    P1: KVK Journal of Medical Systems [joms] pp1231-joms-488005 June 22, 2004 7:53 Style file version June 5th, 2002 Journal of Medical Systems, Vol. 28, No. 4, August 2004 ( C 2004) Diversity and Disparity: GIS and Small-Area Analysis in Six Chicago Neighborhoods Steven Whitman,1,2,3 Abigail Silva,1 Ami Shah,1 and David Ansell1,2 Small-area analysis in health is essential in uncovering local-level disparities often masked by health estimates for large areas (e.g., cities, counties, states). In this context, 14 health status indicators (HSIs) were examined for six Chicago community areas that reflect the substantial diversity of the city. HSIs were compared over time (from 1989–90 to 1999–2000) and across community areas. Important disparities among these community areas in mortality rates, birth outcomes, and infectious diseases were found. In many cases the disparities were in the expected direction with the richest and predominantly White community area experiencing the lowest rates. However, some surprises did manifest themselves. For example, only the poorest community area experienced a statistically significant decline in the infant mortality rate. Since so much of attention is now being paid to reducing and eliminating these disparities, it is important to examine their existence to better understand how to minimize them. KEY WORDS: small-area analysis; mortality; morbidity; community health; health disparities. INTRODUCTION Geographic and small-area analysis is widespread now, having gained promi- nence in health research from some

Foley, MD Dr. Michael Foley serves as the chair for the UA College of Medicine Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, as well as the chairman of Obstetrics & Gynecology department at Banner-University Medical Center. He received his medical degree from Chicago Medical School in 1984 and completed both his residency training and a fellowship in Maternal Fetal Medicine at Ohio State University Hospital. He worked in Fetal Therapy & Fetal Surgery: Harris Birthright Center for Fetal Research in London, England. He previously served as the chief medical officer at HonorHealth in Scottsdale, AZ, and as medical director of Phoenix Perinatal Associates in Phoenix. What drew you to OB/GYN as a specialty? The most important draw to OBGYN for me was the lovely mix of medicine and surgery. I get to work with women, most of the time at the happiest periods of their lives. I love being around positivity and happiness and bringing in another baby into a family is always such an unbelievable delight. It never gets old to deliver a baby and be a part of a family’s growth. I selected Maternal Fetal Medicine and Critical Care because I love critical care and cardiology. I loved being able to take care of the most critically-ill moms because there is instantaneous feedback as to how well they do with interventional medicine.
