Results will determine whether or not the promoters of the enterprise were mistaken in their judgment Aand action. The city, we think, offers ample opportunity for all that is desirable in a first-class medical school, and if you will permit me to say it, the trustees and faculty propose to make this a first-class school.” —John Milton Duff, MD Professor of Obstetrics, September 1886 More than three decades after the city’s first public hospital was established, after exhausting efforts toward a joint charter, Pittsburgh physicians founded an indepen- dent medical college, opening its doors in September 1886. This congested industrial city—whose public hospital then performed more amputations and saw more fatal typhoid-fever cases per capita than any other in the country—finally would have its own pipeline of new physicians for its rising tide of diseased and injured brakemen, domestics, laborers, machinists, miners, and steelworkers from around the world, as well as the families of its merchants, professionals, and industry giants.

JUSTICE, ADMINISTRATIVE LAW, AND THE TRANSPLANT CLINICIAN: THE ETHICAL AND LEGISLATIVE BASIS OF A NATIONAL POLICY ON DONOR LIVER ALLOCATION Neal R. Barshes,* Carl S. Hacker,**Richard B. Freeman Jr.,**John M. Vierling,****& John A. Goss***** INTRODUCTION Like many other valuable health care resources, the supply of donor livers in the United States is inadequate for the number of patients with end-stage liver disease in need of a liver transplant. The supply- demand imbalance is most clearly demonstrated by the fact that each year approximately ten to twelve percent of liver transplant candidates die before a liver graft becomes available.1 When such an imbalance between the need for a given health care resource and the supply of that resource exists, some means of distributing the resource must be developed.

La Medicina greca Capitolo 1 La Medicina greca Simbolo della medicina Nelle prime fasi, la medicina occidentale (non ci occuperemo della medicina orientale) era una medicina teurgica, in cui la malattia era considerata un castigo divino, concetto che si trova in moltissime opere greche, come l’Iliade, e che ancora oggi è connaturato nell’uomo.

  • Nigeria MLA Replies to the Pandemic Response Questionnaire
    ANSWERS TO QUESTIONAIRE OF THE CMI ON PANDEMIC RESPONSE 1. Yes. 2. Yes. By virtue of the fact that Nigeria and some other 190 States did not make reservations to it. 3. Yes 4. Regulations have been made awaiting Ministerial Approval 5. Yes Came into force in Nigeria on 5th March, 1967 6. Attempts to implement the Convention have been made. However the full implementation is slowed down by several bureaucratic hiccups. 7. Yes. In the wake of the outbreak of Ebola, mild checks were put in place at entry points before grant of entrance especially for people from the Countries that had outbreak of Ebola 8. Yes. 9. (a) Nigeria adopted four major steps which had great impact in curtailing the spread of the Ebola Pandemic. They were: (i) Trace, Isolate, and Treat: Since it was confirmed that Ebola patients are not contagious until they exhibit symptoms such as fever, it was possible to adopt these strategies. Because, the source of Ebola into Nigeria was quickly traced to a Liberian American, Patrick Sawyer, who came to Nigeria in July 2014, Nigerian government/ health workers in charge could trace all the people that had contact, one way or the other, to Patrick Sawyer and the health personnel that had treated him or his contacts. In this wise, the victims’ close contacts were identified, isolated and they were educated about the symptoms. After a few lapses, proper medical protocol kept health care workers from getting sick. (ii) Early Detection before many people could be exposed: It is generally believed that anyone with Ebola, typically, will infect about two more people, unless something is done to intervene.

ENGLEBERT DUNmHY, M.D.* THE successful transplantation of a heart from one human being to another, by Dr. Christian Barnard of South Africa, hias occasioned an intense renewal of public interest in organ transplantation. The back- ground of transplantation, and its present status, with a note on certain ethical aspects are reviewed here with the interest of the lay reader in mind. History of Transplants Transplantation of tissues was performed over 5000 years ago. Both the Egyptians and Hindus transplanted skin to replace noses destroyed by syphilis. Between 53 B.C. and 210 A.D., both Celsus and Galen carried out successful transplantation of tissues from one part of the body to another. While reports of transplantation of tissues from one person to another were also recorded, accurate documentation of success was not established. John Hunter, the father of scientific surgery, practiced transplan- tation experimentally and clinically in the 1760's. Hunter, assisted by a dentist, transplanted teeth for distinguished ladies, usually taking them from their unfortunate maidservants.

  • Impact of Ebola Virus Disease on School Administration in Nigeria
    American International Journal of Contemporary Research Vol. 5, No. 3; June 2015 Impact of Ebola Virus Disease on School Administration in Nigeria Oladunjoye Patrick, PhD Major, Nanighe Baldwin, PhD Niger Delta University Educational Foundations Department Wilberforce Island Bayelsa State Nigeria Abstract This study is focused on the impact of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) on school administration in Nigeria. Two hypothesis were formulated to guide the study. A questionnaire titled Ebola Virus Disease and school administration (EVDSA) was used to collect data. The instrument was administered to one hundred and seventeen (117) teachers and eighty three (83) school administrators randomly selected from the three (3) regions in the federal republic of Nigeria. This instrument was however validated by experts and tested for reliability using the test re-test method and data analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. The result shows that there is a significant difference between teachers and school heads in urban and rural areas on the outbreak of the EVD. However, there is no significant difference in the perception of teachers and school heads in both urban and rural areas on the effect of EVD on attendance and hygiene in schools. Based on these findings, recommendations were made which include a better information system to the rural areas and the sustenance of the present hygiene practices in schools by school administrators. Introduction The school and the society are knitted together in such a way that whatever affects the society will invariably affect the school. When there are social unrest in the society, the school attendance may be affected.

Mai 2008 fand in Innsbruck das 2. Wirtschaftshistorische Symposium zum Thema Von Körpermärkten statt. Diese Tagung schloss an die Vorjahresveranstaltung an, die das Thema Von Menschenhandel und Menschenpreisen behandelt hat.1 Während damals der Mensch als Ganzes in seiner Rolle als Sklave/Slavin, Gefangene(r), potentielles Unfallopfer oder Patient(in) im Mittelpunkt stand, ging es diesmal gezielt um den Körper oder Teile des- selben. Solche Körperteile waren immer schon begehrt, heute vielleicht am stärksten in der Medizin, wenn Organe oder Gewebe längst ganz real und teils sogar offen gehandelt werden, oder in der Versicherungswirtschaft, wo ganz natürlich und je nach Bedarf und Bewertung auch Teile von Menschen gegen Schäden versichert werden, wie z.B. die Stimmbänder von Opernsänger(inne)n, die Nasen von Weinkenner(inne)n, die Beine von Fußballern oder der Busen von Popsängerinnen.
