When the Learning Disabled Go to College

Abstract

During the last decade, federal laws have provided for remedial education in elementary and secondary schools for students with learning disabilities, preparing large numbers of them for college. Federal law also mandates helping learning-disabled students with their needs once they matriculate. Declining numbers of high school graduates in the aftermath of the baby boom have made more colleges open their doors to these students. The disabilities, and the accommodations they require, arrive in college with the rest of a student's baggage, demanding attention. Colleges and universities have chosen a variety of approaches, from specific remedial programs and individual accomodations according to need to more general programs. Some colleges pretend these disabilities do not exist and seem oblivious to their presence on campus. Learning disabilities can have an impact in every class and lecture hall and can contribute to unhappiness and the college's attrition rate. On the other hand, responsive and responsible programs provide students with the resources for the same education, honors, and opportunities as their nondisabled peers.     

A Quality Risk Management Model Approach for Cell Therapy Manufacturing

International regulatory authorities view risk management as an essential production need for the development of innovative, somatic cell‐based therapies in regenerative medicine. The available risk management guidelines, however, provide little guidance on specific risk analysis approaches and procedures applicable in clinical cell therapy manufacturing. This raises a number of problems. Cell manufacturing is a poorly automated process, prone to operator‐introduced variations, and affected by heterogeneity of the processed organs/tissues and lot‐dependent variability of reagent (e.g., collagenase) efficiency. In this study, the principal challenges faced in a cell‐based product manufacturing context (i.e., high dependence on human intervention and absence of reference standards for acceptable risk levels) are identified and addressed, and a risk management model approach applicable to manufacturing of cells for clinical use is described for the first time. The use of the heuristic and pseudo‐quantitative failure mode and effect analysis/failure mode and critical effect analysis risk analysis technique associated with direct estimation of severity, occurrence, and detection is, in this specific context, as effective as, but more efficient than, the analytic hierarchy process. Moreover, a severity/occurrence matrix and Pareto analysis can be successfully adopted to identify priority failure modes on which to act to mitigate risks. The application of this approach to clinical cell therapy manufacturing in regenerative medicine is also discussed.     

南京政府时期中医师开业管理办法初论

从 193 6年 1月《中医条例》颁布到 1947年 8月《修正医师法草案》公布 ,十余年间 ,南京政府有关行政管理部门在先后出台的一系列有关中医的政策与法规中 ,陆续制定了一些中医师开业管理办法 ,形成“申请中医师证书———请求注册 ,领取开业执照———加入所在地区医师公会———开业”开业模式。这一模式符合现代管理趋势 ,有一定的借鉴意义

浅论医学与文学的结缘

医学作为一项社会系统工程 ,与文学关系密切。二者之间的关系 :文学是调适精神的“辅助剂” ;文学是解剖人生的“手术刀” ;医学是透视社会的“X射线” ;医学是丰富文学的“多维素”。     

试论非法行医罪

非法行医罪是我国1997年修改刑法新增加的一个罪名。目前因为种种原因。我国非法行医的现象非常普遍，而且屡禁不止，严重破坏了正常的医疗管理秩序，及时有效的打击非法行医的犯罪活动成了当今社会关注的一个焦点，但在司法实践中对非法行医罪的认定等方面却存在着模糊认识。非法行医罪是指未取得医生资格的人非法行医，情节严重的行为；在非法行医罪的主体问题上存在争论，莫衷一是；非法行医罪和医疗事故罪、过失致人死亡罪、过失致人重伤罪以及诈骗罪之间存在区别。     

防范与失范：清末民初女性犯罪防治问题研究

清末民初国家和社会针对日益增多的女性犯罪，先后采取了一定的防治措施，这对控制女性犯罪起到了一定的作用。但从实际效果看，由于防范方法的失当，救济机构的不完善及救济措施的不健全等原因，当时各种防治措施并未能有效地减少女性犯罪。
