Abstract:
I summarize the recent history of education reform and statewide testing in Texas, which led to introduction of the Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) in 1990-91. A variety of evidence in the late 1990s led a number of observers to conclude that the state of Texas had made near miraculous progress in reducing dropouts and increasing achievement. The passing scores on TAAS tests were arbitrary and discriminatory. Analyses comparing TAAS reading, writing and math scores with one another and with relevant high school grades raise doubts about the reliability and validity of TAAS scores. I

The Special Article in this issue of Medical Problems of Performing Artists has the potential to usher in a new era in improving the lives of musicians (and potentially other performing artists) around the world. The Health Promotion in Schools of Music conference that was held in Texas in the fall of 2004 brought together a rich mixture of music and performing arts medicine professionals. Stimulated by the new National Association of Schools of Music accreditation standard that requires undergraduate music students to receive instruction in injury prevention and occupational health promotion,

Abstract:
Safety planning, simply put, is a detailed, personalized, and practical plan that is created to protect oneself against an abusive (or potentially abusive) partner. Relying on self-reported data from an online survey of female college students from a state university in Texas, this study focuses on safety strategies centered around escape planning (e.g., whether or not students have a safe place to go, where they would go, and what they would take with them) as well as what factors influence this (e.g., prior experiences with intimate partner violence).

CIN/FN may require hospitalization, increase monitoring requirements and diagnostic and treatment costs, and reduce patient quality of life. Myeloid growth factors such as filgrastim or pegfilgrastim have been shown to reduce the incidence and severity of neutropenic complications. International guidelines recommend that pegfilgrastim be administered once per cycle 24-72 hours after chemotherapy, though recent NCCN guidelines mention the option of same-day administration.

Abstract Introduction: Therapeutic red blood cell exchange (RBCX) is a process by which diseased red cells are replaced by healthy donor red blood cells. In patients with sickle cell disease, RBCX has been used to treat acute stroke, severe acute chest syndrome, multiorgan failure, priapism and splenic sequestration. It is also being used more commonly in the prevention of vaso-occlusive pain crises and for stroke prophylaxis for patients considered to be at high risk of stroke based on abnormal transcranial Doppler flow rates.

In Europe Sickle SC (HbSC) is the second most common form of SCD after sickle cell anaemia (HbSS/HbSB°) and accounts for 25-30% of cases. Neurological events are among the most frequent and disabling complications in children with SCD with an important impact on quality of life, health and educational system costs (DeBaun et al., 2012).
