{"title":"Attitudes and practices of African-American physicians toward smoking interventions: an earlier study.","authors":"G King","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>A paucity of data exists regarding the smoking prevention and cessation practices of African-American physicians. Advice from a physician is an important strategy in helping patients quit smoking. This article presents the results of a national survey conducted in the mid- 1980s of African-American physicians about their attitudes and practices toward smoking cessation and prevention. In this study, an adjusted response rate of 54% was achieved, yielding 188 returned questionnaires. Four specific smoking intervention practices were examined as dependent variables: (1) exploring patients' feelings about smoking; (2) discussing smoking with patients' families; (3) providing educational materials to patients; and (4) recording patients' smoking status in the medical charts. The proportion of African-American physician smokers in this study (16%) was greater than the reported rates (5% to 10%) of other physicians but well below the national average for African Americans (32.9%) in 1987. In bivariate analyses of the professional and demographic predictors, age, medical specialty, practice setting, physician smoking status, and certain attitudinal variables were significantly related to smoking intervention practices. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that older physicians were less likely to discuss smoking with a patient's family and to record patient smoking status and that respondents who felt their advice was effective were more likely to explore a patient's feelings about smoking.</p>","PeriodicalId":77227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Association for Academic Minority Physicians : the official publication of the Association for Academic Minority Physicians","volume":"8 2","pages":"22-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20114371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our aim in this study was to evaluate the role of telementoring in the training of advanced laparoscopic surgical procedures. Student surgeons received a uniform training format to enhance their laparoscopic skills and intracorporeal suturing techniques and specific procedural training in laparoscopic colonic resections and Nissen fundoplication. Subsequently, operating rooms were equipped with three cameras. A telestrator (teleguidance device), instant replay (to critique errors), and CD-ROM programs (to provide reference information) were used as intraoperative, educationally assistant tools. In phase 1, four colonic resections were performed with the mentor in the operating room (group A), and four colonic resections were performed with the mentor on the hospital grounds but not in the operating room (group B). The voice and video signals were received at the mentor's location using coaxial cable. In phase 2, two Nissen fundoplications were performed with the mentors in the operating room (group C), and two Nissen fundoplications were performed with the mentors 5 miles away from the operating room (group D) using existing land lines at the T1 level. We found no differences in the performances of the surgeons or the outcomes of the operations between groups A and B and groups C and D. Intraoperative problems were tackled effectively. Preliminarily, we conclude that the telementoring concept is potentially a safe and cost-effective option for advanced training in laparoscopic operations. Further investigation is necessary before routine transcontinental patient applications are attempted.</p>","PeriodicalId":77227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Association for Academic Minority Physicians : the official publication of the Association for Academic Minority Physicians","volume":"8 1","pages":"11-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20004270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

College majors and career choices of minority high school student research apprentices. 少数民族高中生科研学徒的大学专业与职业选择。

A tracking system was initiated to follow up the participants to determine college majors during matriculation and career choices after graduation. The tracking included telephone interviews and questionnaires mailed to 55 participants from 1981 to 1994, the length of the program. The typical student in the cohort is an African-American man residing in a metropolitan area (70%) of Georgia. Sixty percent of the research apprentices come from working class parents. All 55 (100%) apprentices matriculated to a college or university. Thirty-one students (56%) had biology as their undergraduate major in college; 15%, liberal arts; 11%, chemistry; 7%, allied health disciplines; and 11%, other. Twenty-nine (53%) of these students graduated from college. Twenty-three of 29 (79%) graduates chose a medical or health science career, and 17 of 29 students (59%) matriculated into medical school. In Georgia, 30.1% of white students graduate from high school, and 14.6% obtain a baccalaureate degree. In contrast, 28% of blacks graduate from high school, and 7.5% graduate from college. We concluded that the Minority High School Student Research Apprentice Program is an important link in the student pipeline from high school to research careers and/or biomedical science careers.
