Smoking cessation in the Chicago Coronary Prevention Evaluation Program.

Quit-rates for cigarette smokers in a lifestyle intervention program aimed at reducing coronary risk were 24 percent for all participants and 34 percent for non-dropouts. Recidivism remained very low during participation in the program. Half of the smokers who quit did so after being in the program more than two years. These data suggest that while engaging in an effort to make other changes in lifestyle, many smokers can be helped to quit. Sustained antismoking efforts in the clinical practice of medicine can be expected to share these same positive aspects. While mass public health programs to eliminate smoking and prevent young people from taking up the habit are being developed, health practitioners can make a significant contribution by including vigorous efforts at smoking cessation as part of routine practice.

A visual guidance program: evaluation report.

A group of 80 fourth-grade pupils were administered visual tests to identify poor eye synchronization. The tests were given at Ruby Thomas Elementary School, Las Vegas, Nevada during February 1971 by Drs. Fred Erlich and Harvey Ohriner. Pupils with unsatisfactory eye synchronization were divided into two groups, a treatment and non-treatment or control group. A second control group was randomly selected from pupils with satisfactory eye synchronization. Visual guidance exercises were given to the treatment group. Post test reading tests showed significant gains in reading for the treatment group. Control groups showed non-significant gains.
