  • Larynx transplantation: laryngectomees' Opinion Poll.
    Transplantation, 2007
    Co-Authors: Guillaume Buiret, Muriel Rabilloud, Claire Combe, Hugues Paliot, François Disant, Philippe Céruse
    Abstract:

    Background. In 1998, Strome et al. performed the first human larynx transplantation in a patient with larynx traumatism. L’Association Nationale des Mutiles de la Voix, a French association of laryngectomees, estimates that the number of laryngectomees in France has reached 20,000. The main goal of the study was to determine the potential number of patients ready to benefit from larynx transplantation in France. Methods. We carried out a public Opinion Poll among 420 total laryngectomees in Rhone-Alpes, in the southeast of France. The questionnaire could be divided into three parts: demographic data; incapacities and deficiencies of the patients; and acceptability of larynx transplantation according to short-, medium-, and long-term implications. Results. We received 205 answers from 420 questionnaires (48.8%). Sixty-three patients (i.e., 30.7%) would accept larynx transplantation, especially the younger patients. The patients more willingly accepted the medical constraints (e.g., medical follow-up, rehabilitation) than they did vital (after the operation or because of the treatments) or functional (risk of permanent canula, no guarantee of laryngeal voice, no guarantee of swallowing) risks. Conclusions. Even though this Opinion Poll has intrinsic bias and acceptance rate is low, by interpolation, larynx transplantation would interest many patients in France. Larynx transplantation is an intervention that should be proposed to a certain number of patients in the future with the help of new immunosuppressor treatments.

  • Critical Realignments and the Public Opinion Poll
    The Journal of Politics, 1991
    Co-Authors: John Gray Geer
    Abstract:

    With the advent of the public Opinion Poll, politicians began to have access to highly reliable information about the electorate's views on issues. Prior to this development, party leaders could only make educated guesses about public Opinion. These guesses, however, were often incorrect, since they were based on unsystematic evidence. But armed with Polls, parties should avoid such errors, approximating Downs' (1957) assumption of certainty. If so, rational parties should converge near the center of the distribution of public Opinion. Or in other words, parties should no longer polarize on highly salient issues that confront the nation. This conclusion has important implications for the study of partisan realignments. The best work on the subject by scholars like Sundquist (1983) and Carmines and Stimson (1989) argue that one requirement for a realignment is that the parties must polarize on an issue of high salience to the public. Yet well-informed, rational parties should not engage in such behavior, s...
