OBJECTIVE To assess the availability, completeness, and quality of the Behavioral Health Organization (BHO) encounter data in MAX 2009. DATA SOURCE The Medicaid Analytic Extract (MAX) 2009. METHODS We compared metrics of reporting completeness and quality for BHOs to similar metrics for six states that primarily cover MH and SA services on a FFS basis. For the IP file, number of encounters ...

Background and aims The phenomenon of Internet pornography (IP) addiction is gainingincreasing attention in the popular media and psychological research.What has not been tested empirically is how frequency and amount ofIP use, along with other individual characteristics, are related tosymptoms of IP addiction. Methods 105 female and 86 male university students (mean age 21) from Calgary,Canada...

Basiri MD Tel: +98 9188121848 Email: [email protected] Abstract Objective Incontinentia Pigmenti (IP) (Bloch_Sulzberg syndrome) is a rare neurocutaneous syndrome characterized by multisystemic involvement that is prenatally lethal in the majority of affected males and shows great clinical variability when expressed in women. The diagnosis of IP is performed based o...

Incontinentia pigmenti (IP) is a rare disease with multisystemic anomalies, which commonly presents just after birth. Here, we report a rare case of IP patient with vitreous hemorrhage in school-age children. Therefore, physicians have to be alert and evaluate IP patients at all ages. Regular ophthalmic follow-up is necessary, and fluorescein angiography should be performed if peripheral ischem...

rather than needs, we refreshingly visited a doctor couple who live their lives differently. Dr Ip-Shing Tsui’s very first request upon greeting us was, “Try not to make the article about us – make it about the project”. This was Dr Tsui and his wife, Dr Kit-Che Mak’s first-ever interview, having previously turned down all requests. Unlike other charities, it was somewhat difficult to find a do...

Current e-commerce practice enforces a customer to disclose her identify to the e-shop. The use of credit cards makes it straightforward for an e-shop to know the real identity of its customers. Although, there are some payment systems based on untraceable tokens, they are not as widely used as credit cards. Furthermore, even without buying anything, a customer is already disclosing some inform...

BACKGROUND Mental illness is a common phenomenon at all ages. Various independent studies have shown that psychopathology is often expressed on a continuum from youth to adulthood. The aim of our study was to demonstrate a) the frequency of admission of former child and adolescent psychiatry inpatients (CAP-IP) to adult inpatient mental health facilities, and b) a potential longitudinal diagnos...

A new approach to the dynamical evolution of a waveguide laser is presented which goes beyond the usual Maxwell–Bloch (MB) equations in that it takes fully into account the phase of the matter quantum field that describes the atomic systems. As an experimental check of its effectiveness, we analyze in its light a recent set of experiments on the effects of a “dephasing” of the electromagnetic l...

A uni® ed review of various Kohn variational methods for scattering calculations is presented using appropriate Bloch operators. Previous expressions are generalized slightly to use either an in® nite range or a ® nite range of the scattering coordinate, or to use a basis set with non-® xed log derivative boundary conditions. A non-variationalmethod (method of moments) is used in the derivation...
