Possible Link between Social and Biologic Factors in the Epidemiology of Coronary Artery Disease

Visiting Scholar, New England Medical Center #345, 750 Washington Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02111.To the Editor:--Investigators interested in the health of populations continue to look for biologic pathways that can connect some of the social determinants of health with the production of disease. [1]The results reported by Rosenfeld et al. [2]show that plasma fibrinogen concentration increases in human subjects after the infusion of epinephrine, cortisol, or glucagon may add to the understanding of how certain social factors are biologically related to the development of coronary artery disease.Data from the Northwick and Framingham studies [3,4]and other epidemiologic evidence reviewed by Ernst [5]indicate that plasma fibrinogen concentrations can be used to predict coronary artery disease with predictive power as high as more generally accepted risk factors.Marmot et al. [6]have shown that mortality from coronary artery disease is inversely related to employment grade with a relative risk more than three times greater in the lowest grade of employment compared with the highest grade. Markowe et al. [7]reported significant differences in plasma fibrinogen concentrations between men in the lowest grades of employment and those in the highest classifications. They also demonstrated a positive correlation between the workers' fibrinogen concentrations and the stress of their respective jobs as determined by a questionnaire composed of items that had been shown to identify stress related to increased risk of coronary artery disease.Combining the findings of Rosenfeld et al. with the epidemiologic data prompts the speculation that lower social class and employment grade produce stress leading to an increase in circulating epinephrine, which results in increased plasma fibrinogen concentration, which in turn is predictive of coronary artery disease and perhaps causally related.John C. Ribble, M.D., Visiting Scholar, New England Medical Center #345, 750 Washington Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02111.

Psychiatric Commitment in Japan: International Concern and Domestic Reform

PSYCHIATRIC COMMITMENT IN JAPAN: INTERNATIONAL CONCERN AND DOMESTIC REFORM Pamela Schwartz Cohent I. INTRODUCTION A. OVERVIEW Psychiatric commitment is one of the most sensitive and complex policy issues confronting any government. Legislating or adjudicating in this area is like juggling on a tightrope; the acrobat must balance the interests and realities of law, psychia- try, politics, and culture, while walking a precarious line between protecting human rights and safeguarding against the potentially devastating effects of mental illness. The manner in which this balancing act is accomplished will depend on the characteristics of the juggler and the nature of the issues being juggled. A suc- cessful performance in one setting may be unpopular or unwork- able in another. In promulgating the Mental Health Act of 1987 ( 1987 Act ),' the Japanese government overhauled its approach toward the balancing act of psychiatric commitment. The 1987 Act pro- vided for the first time in Japan's history a legislative scheme for t Consultant in mental health law. Formerly, Staff Attorney, Judge David L. Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law, Washington, D.C. Visiting Scholar, Sophia University, Tokyo 1990-1992. Member, 1992 International Commission of Jurists Mission to Study the Human Rights of Psychiatric Patients in Japan. This article was written under a grant from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science ( J.S.P.S. ). In addition to J.S.P.S. and Sophia University, the author thanks the many individuals in Japan and the United States whose help and guidance were crucial to this work. Special appreciation goes to Professor Saku Machino of Sophia University, Professor Stephan Salzberg of the University of British Columbia, Nobuko Kobayashi of the Tokyo Center for Mental Health and Human Rights, and the members of the preparatory committee for the 1992 International Court of Jus- tice ( I.C.J. ) mission to Japan. 1. English translations of provisions of the 1987 Act and regulations promul- gated thereunder (including the Psychiatric Review Board Manual) are from the unofficial translation published by the Mental Health Division of the Health Service Bureau of the Ministry of Health and Welfare of Japan (1988).

"Who Did Archaeology in the United States Before There Were Archaeologists and Why? Preprofessional Archaeologies of the Nineteenth Century." by Thomas C. Patterson. In Processual and Postprocessual Archaeologies, edited by Robert W. Preucel, Center for A

Patterson's paper is a condensation of two he had presented in 1988 and 1989, at conferences previous to the Carbondale Visiting Scholar Conference of 1989. He characterizes the early United States as harboring two contrasting political philosophies, agrarian versus mercantile capitalism. The agrarians, of whom Thomas Jefferson is of course the most illustrious example, followed the physiocrats in believing agricultural land to be the foundation of societies, therefore the manifest destiny of the new Republic was to conquer, and colonize more land. The mercantilists, primarily in Boston, emphasized civilization as the refinement of technologies, social order, and tastes. Both philosophies were cast in Enlightenment terms.

The Galt Visiting Scholar in Public Mental Health: A review of a model of state-university collaboration

The Galt Visiting Scholar in Public Mental Health program was developed in Virginia to strengthen the relationships between the Virginia Department of Mental Health, Mental Retardation, and Substance Abuse Services and the Commonwealth's three medical schools. We describe the development and evolution of this program and its accomplishments to date. Despite significant accomplishments, many of the key recommendations of previous Galt Scholars have not been enacted. The Galt Scholar approach of a consultant model is discussed and analyzed structurally using consultation theory. This analysis demonstrates both the potentials and limits of consultant models of state-university collaboration.

A Revolution in Classical Scholarship?

In a review (JHS lxxxvi [1966] 205 f.) of P. A. Stadter's Plutarch's historical methods: an analysis of the Mulierum virtutes (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1965), Mr T. F. Carney, who was at that time Fulbright Visiting Scholar in the Department of Political Science of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, claimed that the book ‘analyses somewhat dated problems with only partially up-dated tools’ and that the ‘actual findings of the book replicate what is already known’. Although Mr Carney takes it for granted that his readers know what the ‘up-dated tools’ are, at the end of his review he drops the key words ‘content analysis’, in which, according to him, Stadter had engaged unwittingly, but obviously without success.Inasmuch as the book in question grew out of a dissertation suggested and directed by this writer, it may perhaps be allowed to reply to the rather serious charges raised in this review, charges which are unprecedented in the history of this Journal and which, if they were justified, could have far-reaching implications. This writer must confess that he was first baffled both by the degree of hostility displayed and by the criticisms, which, though specific, are often murky; but he was baffled even more by the general accusation of ‘only partially up-dated tools’ and inappropriate use of ‘content analysis’, a term he had never previously encountered. But this writer soon found out that content analysis is ‘a research tool in mass communication’ (R. W. Butt and R. K. Thorp, An Introduction to Content Analysis [A Publication of the University of Iowa School of Journalism, Iowa City, Iowa, 1963] 1), ‘a research technique for the objective, systematic, and quantitative description of the manifest content of communication’ (Bernard Berelson, Content Analysis in Communication Research [The Free Press, Glencoe, Illinois, 1952] 18 [still the chief book in the field]); and it became clear that Mr Carney wore the social scientist's hat when he wrote his review.
