Abstract

In radiation therapy, calculation of dose within the patient contains inherent uncertainties, inaccuracies, limitations, and the potential for random error. Thus, point dose‐independent verification of such calculations is a well‐established process, with published data to support the setting of both action levels and tolerances. Mobius3D takes this process one step further with a full independent calculation of patient dose and comparisons of clinical parameters such as mean target dose and voxel‐by‐voxel gamma analysis. There is currently no published data to directly inform tolerance levels for such parameters, and therefore this work presents a database of 1000 Mobius3D results to fill this gap. The data are tested for normality using a normal probability plot and found to fit this distribution for three sub groups of data; Eclipse,iPlan and the treatment site Lung. The mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ) of these sub groups is used to set action levels and tolerances at μ ± 2σ and μ ± 3σ, respectively. A global (3%, 3 mm) gamma tolerance is set at 88.5%. The mean target dose tolerance for Eclipse data is the narrowest at ± 3%, whilst iPlan and Lung have a range of −5.0 to 2.2% and −1.8 to 5.0%, respectively. With these limits in place, future results failing the action level or tolerance will fall within the worst 5% and 1% of historical results and an informed decision can be made regarding remedial action prior to treatment.

21. Perspective of California Legislators on Disclosure and Accountability as it Relates to Faculty Salaries and Supplemental Income.

Author

California State Legislature, Sacramento. Assembly. and Jolly, David

Abstract

The need for public disclosure of supplemental income received by California public universities' faculty members, particularly from outside consulting is discussed. The relationship between this supplemental income and legislative decisions on faculty salaries is also discussed. Although legislation has been considered in this area of public disclosure of outside faculty income, it has not been pursued in the hope that institutions of higher education would monitor their own activities and adopt their own disclosure requirements. If the institutions do not monitor themselves, it is felt that the legislature will have to intervene. (SPG)

22. Legislative Concerns in Funding Higher Education: Views from Sacramento.

Author

Jolly, David O.

Abstract

Legislative concerns in funding higher education in California are considered. Information is presented on the state's overall fiscal status and the impact of declining enrollment. Funding appropriations in 1979-80 to the University of California (UC) and the California State Colleges and University (CSUC) are specified. For the 1979-80 budget, the governor proposed to continue reductions of around $15 million that had been adopted the previous year after the passage of Proposition 13. When the reductions were made no direction was given as to how the higher education segments were to reduce their expenditures. A total of $22 million in unspecified reductions were proposed by the governor for the 1979-80 budget. Compounding these proposed reductions was the enrollment decline. In making their budget decisions the legislators displayed their level of commitment to higher education and their reluctance to make the specific policy and program decisions for the institutions. The legislators reduced the unspecified reduction at CSUC to ensure that the instruction program was not directly affected. The decision to augment the UC budget was arrived at with more difficulty. Unlike CSUC, UC was not facing a substantial enrollment decline. UC also had not determined specifically which programs and activities would have to be reduced. Part of the reduction proposed by the governor was eliminated, but specific reductions that the legislators had voted to accept after hearing testimony during hearings were kept. (SW)

Abstract

This article describes the process and results associated with the organizational-level recruitment of Black barbershops into Fitness in the Shop (FITShop), a 6-month barbershop-based intervention study designed to promote physical activity among Black men. Organizational-level recruitment activities included (1) a telephone call to prospective barbershop owners to assess their interest and eligibility for participation, (2) an organizational eligibility letter sent to all interested and eligible barbershops, (3) a visit to interested and eligible barbershops, where a culturally sensitive informational video was shown to barbershop owners to describe the study activities and share testimonies from trusted community stakeholders, and (4) a signed agreement with barbershop owners and barbers, which formalized the organizational partnership. Structured interviews were conducted with owners of a total of 14 enrolled barbershops, representing 30% of those determined to be eligible and interested. Most enrolled shops were located in urban settings and strip malls. Barbershop owners were motivated to enroll in the study based on commitment to their community, perceived client benefits, personal interest in physical activity, and a perception that the study had potential to make a positive impact on the barbershop and on reducing health disparities. Results offer important insights about recruiting barbershops into intervention trials.

33. HIV Testing Experience and Risk Behavior Among Sexually Active Black Young Adults: A CBPR-Based Study Using Respondent-Driven Sampling in Durham, North Carolina

Author

Chen, Mario, Jolly, David, Mueller, Monique P., Isler, Malika Roman, Rogers, Randy C., Laws, Michelle, MacQueen, Kathleen M., Okumu, Eunice, Eley, Natalie T., and Kalloo, Allison

Abstract

African Americans are disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic inclusive of men who have sex with men, heterosexual men, and women. As part of a community-based participatory research study we assessed HIV testing experience among sexually active 18 to 30 year old Black men and women in Durham, North Carolina. Of 508 participants, 173 (74%) men and 236 (86%; p=.0008) women reported ever being tested. Barriers to testing (e.g., perceived risk and stigma) were the same for men and women, but men fell behind mainly because a primary facilitator of testing---routine screening in clinical settings---was more effective at reaching women. Structural and behavioral risk factors associated with HIV infection were prevalent but did not predict HIV testing experience. Reduced access to health care services for low income Black young adults may exacerbate HIV testing barriers that already exist for men and undermine previous success rates in reaching women.
