Promotion of evaluation as a strategy towards an effective substance prevention.

A growing number of European initiatives focusing on the evaluation and monitoring of substance abuse prevention is observed. At the beginning of the 90s a team from the Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Warsaw, Poland, began a project designed for the promotion of evaluation in the field of substance abuse prevention. The project included outcome studies on popular school-based programs and development of teaching materials and publications to popularize the concept and methods of evaluation. As results of the project several outcome studies were completed, several scales for evaluating alcohol prevention programs were developed, a number of articles and a handbook on evaluation were published.

Sensitivity to some rubber additives.

The frequency of positive patch tests to 13 rubber accelerators in Poland was recorded. Of particular interest was the relatively large group of patients positive to several, mostly chemically unrelated, accelerators. The mechanism of this multiple sensitivity is discussed. Positive tests to N-isopropyl-N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine were observed in more than half of the patients reacting to several aromatic amines. Anamnesis indicated that in the case of cross-reactions to many aromatic amines, none of the patients positive to N-isopropyl-N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine had complained of a reaction to rubber products.
