A new species of Peckia Robineau-Desvoidy is described from the coastal dry forest of Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica, viz., Pechia glyphis sp.n., and a key to the ten species of Peckia known from the area is provided. A lectotype is designated for Pechia pexata (Wulp, 1895) and intraspecific variation in male leg setosity and in the morphology of male terminalia are documented
P. George Bird and Reinhard Wittke Oral History Interview, 2016 April 23
P. George Bird taught in the Theatre department at Eastern Michigan University from 1956-2006. The interview is an account of his time teaching on campus, his most memorable productions and the planning and construction of Quirk Theatre. Reinhard Wittke was a professor in the History Department at Eastern Michigan University from 1956-1990. During his time at Eastern, Wittke established and was best known for establishing the European Adventure Tours in 1960, which became International Studies Program. This is the third part in a three part series.https://commons.emich.edu/oral_histories/1002/thumbnail.jp
Hospice utilization of Medicare beneficiaries in Hawaiâi compared to other states
The objective is to examine hospice utilization among Medicare beneficiaries in Hawaiâi compared to other states. Data were from the 2014 Medicare Hospice Utilization and Payment Public Use File, which included information on 4,025 hospice providers, more than 1.3 million hospice beneficiaries, and over $15 billion in Medicare payments. Multivariable linear regression models were estimated to compare hospice utilization in Hawaiâi to that of other states. Control variables included age, gender, and type of Medicare coverage. Medicare beneficiaries using hospice in Hawaiâi differed significantly from beneficiaries in other states in several ways. Hawaiâi beneficiaries were more likely to be Asian (57% vs. 1%, p \u3c .001) and âother raceâ (10% vs. 0.1%, p \u3c .001), and less likely to be White (28% vs. 84%, p \u3c .001). Hawaiâi beneficiaries were also more likely to have Medicare Advantage (55% vs. 30%, p = .05). Regarding primary diagnoses, hospice users in Hawaiâi were significantly more likely to have a primary diagnosis of stroke (11% vs. 8%, p = .03) and less likely to have respiratory disease (5% vs. 11%, p = .003). In addition, hospice users in Hawaiâi were more likely to use services in their homes (74% vs. 52%, p = .03). Hawaiâi hospice users were also less likely to die while in hospice (42% vs. 47%, p = .002). Characteristics of Medicare beneficiaries in Hawaiâi differ from those in other states, regarding demographic characteristics, type of coverage, primary diagnoses, likelihood of using services in their homes, and death rates. Further research is needed to better understand factors affecting these differences and whether these differences warrant changes in policy or practice
