Research paper thumbnail of Sexual and Physical Abuse: A Comparison Between Lesbians and Their Heterosexual Sisters

In a matched sample of 324 lesbian/heterosexual sister pairs, the lesbians reported a greater incidence than their sisters of childhood physical and sexual abuse, as well as adult sexual abuse. Both groups identified male relatives as the most common perpetrator of both childhood physical and sexual abuse. Male relatives were most commonly identified as perpetrators of adult physical abuse and male strangers were most commonly identified as adult sexual abusers. Our results demonstrate that both sexual and physical abuse are common experiences for lesbian and heterosexual women; however, since the context of these experiences is different, each group will have special needs for services and treatment.

Research paper thumbnail of Differences in nausea, vomiting, and retching between younger and older outpatients receiving cancer chemotherapy

A longitudinal 4-month study was used for the 127 participants recruited from 18 settings. Participants completed two questionnaires (Inventory of N, V, and R and Behavior Checklist) over the course of the study. The pattern between the younger and older patients' N, V, and R subscale scores was consistent in that the younger patients' scores were consistently (except on one occasion) higher than the older patients' scores, but this difference was statistically insignificant. This study furthers our understanding of N, V, and R and has several clinical implications.

Research paper thumbnail of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Physicians' Experiences in the Workplace

There is little formal education in medical school about LGBT issues, and some heterosexual physicians have negative attitudes about caring for LGBT patients or working with LGBT coworkers, setting the stage for an exclusive and unwelcoming workplace. The current study used an online survey to assess a convenience sample of 427 LGBT physicians from a database of a national LGBT healthcare organization, as well as a snowball sample generated from the members of the database. Although rates of discriminatory behaviors had decreased since earlier reports, 10% reported that they were denied referrals from heterosexual colleagues, 15% had been harassed by a colleague, 22% had been socially ostracized, 65% had heard derogatory comments about LGBT individuals, 34% had witnessed discriminatory care of an LGBT patient, 36% had witnessed disrespect toward an LGBT patient's partner, and 27% had witnessed discriminatory treatment of an LGBT coworker. Few had received any formal education

We sought to analyze surgical results of women with uterine cancers having TLH ± staging, stratifying data by body mass index (BMI). Methods. This is a retrospective analysis of data from 9 years, using Pearson and Spearman correlations, ANOVA and Fisher's Exact Test with significance at P b 0.05, stratifying by BMI (kg/m 2 ): underweight (b18.5 kg/m 2 ), ideal (18.5-24.9 kg/m 2 ), overweight (25 to 29.9 kg/m 2 ), obese (30 to 39.9 kg/m 2 ) and morbidly obese (40 kg/m 2 or more).
