Medicaid, Managed Care, and Kids. 12th Annual Herbert Lourie Memorial Lecture on Health Policy
Get PDFThis policy brief talks about what managed care for Medicaid is, how it influences kids, and how it relates to the State Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP). It focuses on what we have learned over the last 20 years through research about cost, use, and quality. It also discusses some of the expectations we had for children covered by Medicaid managed care. Finally, it talks abaout the future of Medicaid managed care and the implications for CHIP.
Fortschrittsdenken in der Neuen Musik : Konzepte und Debatten in der frühen Bundesrepublik /
No full textLange Zeit hat die Idee eines musikalischen Fortschritts gleichermaßen fasziniert und polarisiert. Als zentraler Bestandteil der Diskurse um die Neue Musik verlangt sie nach einer differenzierten historischen Betrachtung. Anhand von reichhaltigem Textmaterial analysiert Julia Freund die zentralen Konzepte und Argumentationslinien und entwirft ein vielfältiges Panorama der Debatten der 1950er Jahre. Ausgangspunkt ist ein close reading der Schriften und Vorlesungen Theodor W. Adornos, dessen Fortschrittsbegriff im Rahmen seines philosophischen Projekts der Aufklärungskritik greifbar wird. In einem zweiten und dritten Schritt nimmt die Autorin die Denkfiguren und Narrative der seriellen Komponisten (darunter K. Stockhausen und P. Boulez) sowie die Gegenentwürfe ihrer Kritiker (wie P. Hindemith oder Fr. Blume) in den Blick.Front Matter -- Copyright page -- Vorwort -- Einleitung -- Theodor W.

Pachychoroid disease
No full textPachychoroid disease, as originally described, includes a multitude of clinical presentations along a spectrum that includes central serous chorioretinopathy. The set of clinical features that defines pachychoroid has evolved to include focal or diffuse choroidal thickening attributable to dilated outer choroidal/Haller’s layer vessels (pachyvessels) and thinning of the choriocapillaris and Sattler’s layers. Fundus tessellation often is reduced and drusen are absent or scarce. The relative emphasis of each of these features in defining pachychoroid continues to undergo refinement as new data are incorporated

Competition and yield advantage in mixtures of pea (Pisum sativum L.) and oats (Avena sativa L.)
No full textIn field trials on a fertile fluvisol in 1995 and 1996 near Gottingen, Germany, pea (Pisum sativum; cv. Messire/conventional leafed, cv, Profi/semileafless) and oats (Avena sativa; cv. Alf) were grown as sole crops and in substitutive mixtures. The sole crops were established at 80 pea seeds m(-2) and 300 oat seeds m(-2). The mixtures consisted of 67% (pea) and 33% (oats) of the monoculture densities, respectively. Interactions of cv. Messire or cv. Profi and oats were similar in 1995 and 1996. The mixtures outyielded the monocultures with respect to total above ground dry matter (RYT = 1.15) and grain yield (RYT = 1.09). Grain yield of pea and oats averaged 4.9 t ha(-1) in monocultures and 5.5 t ha(-1) in mixtures. Oats was relatively the stronger of the two competitors. Decreasing number of pods per plant could be highlighted as the factor for a lower pea seed frequency in the yield of the mixtures. For oats the number of panicles per plant and kernels per panicle were higher in the mixtures compared with the oat monocultures. The average amount of the harvest index (HI) was 0.52 for pea and 0.46 for oats. Favourable growth conditions increased HI values however, prolific vegetative growth in the mixtures resulted in lower HI values. The predicted RYT-values estimate the maximum combined grain yield of 6.3 t ha(-1) in the mixture of 87% pea (70 seeds m(-2)) and 13% oats (39 kernels m(-2))
The performance of pea (Pisum sativum L.) and its role in determining yield advantages in mixed stands of pea and oat (Avena sativa L.)
No full textOn a brown warp soil (Fluventic Eutrochrept) near Goettingen, Germany, conventional leafed pea (Pisum sativum L. cvs Messire and Bohatyr) and semileafless types (cvs Profi. Juno and Azur) were grown in mixed stands together with oat (Avena sativa cvs Alf and Lutz) in substitutively designed experiments from 1995 to 1997. Oat was the dominant component. Crowding coefficients for oat averaged 7.4. No relationship could be detected between the crowding coefficient of oat and any yield advantage from the mixture. Crowding coefficients for pea varied substantially, between 0.1002 (Juno and Alf in 1996) and 0.2979 (Bohatyr and Alf in 1996). Crowding coefficients for semileafless pea cultivars were smaller than for conventional leafed types. The yield advantage of the mixture increased as the crowding coefficient of pea increased. The maximum yield increase for the mixture was achieved when the relative yield total (RYT) = 1.17 or + 11 dt grain DM ha(-1) for mixtures of the long-strawed conventional leafed cultivars Bohatyr and Alf (in 1996). The crowding coefficients of pea were positively correlated with the level of symbiotically fixed N(2) in the mixed stands. When N(2) fixation with mixed cropping was about 30 kg N ha(-1), RYT was unity. Increasing symbiotic N(2) in the mixtures resulted in increasing yield advantages in the mixture. Short-strawed pea cultivars seem unsuitable for mixing with oat. Plant height of pea appeared to be more important than plant leaf type. Accordingly, mixtures containing the long-strawed semileafless pea cultivars Profi and Alf were more successful. It is concluded that increased competitiveness of the pea component in the mixture with oat entails increasing the level of symbiotic N(2) fixation including resource complementarity and thus yield advantage in the mixed stands
