Challenges of leadership in an era of health care reform.

Health care leadership has never been more difficult than in the past decade--and the next ten years promise to be even more demanding. As a new era for health care emerges, organizational leaders will be required to manage increased levels of risk, uncertainty, and rapid change. Successful chief executives will be those who recognize and nurture intangible leadership qualities including knowledge of self, commitment to service, and depth and breadth of vision. With the continued shift away from hospital inpatient care, health care leaders will be called on to develop multipurpose delivery systems that move from a market-based to a community-based focus and deliver high quality services in a cost-effective manner. Several leadership themes will unfold in the midst of health care reform, including: exploiting change for the good of the organization and community; serving as educator, communicator, and comforter to divergent constituencies; and reestablishing a balance between short-term goals and long-term vision.

Continuous-Culture Responses of Candida shehatae to Shifts in Temperature and Aeration: Implications for Ethanol Inhibition.

Temperature and aeration shifts were used to perturb steady-state continuous cultures to determine the effects of ethanol on xylose metabolism by Candida shehatae. The accumulation of ethanol exerted a delayed inhibitory effect on the specific rate of substrate utilization. A second effect was also observed in which the specific rate of xylitol production increased at the expense of the specific rate of ethanol production. Both effects were enhanced at higher temperature. Inhibitory effects also occurred in glucose metabolism.

Reviewing cancer in American blacks: a Baltimore study.

Rates for the incidence and mortality of cancer have greatly increased in American blacks as they has been assimilated into Western culture. There are many apparent causes for this change, and perhaps one factor is the mixing of genetic backgrounds to produce a single population. Heightened rates may be stemmed, however, by directing greater attention to prevention of cancer by elimination of carcinogens from the environment.
