  • Mauricio B. Rosenbaum, MD: A Revolutionary Electrocardiologist From the Southern Hemisphere, 1921–2003
    Circulation, 2003
    Co-Authors: Marcelo V. Elizari
    Abstract:

    Ifeel honored and at the same time deeply touched to be asked to write this memorial to Mauricio Bernardo Rosenbaum, who died on May 4, 2003, after a distinguished, life-spanning career of 57 years. Born in Carlos Casares, province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, 81 years ago, he graduated from the School of Medicine of Cordoba University and completed his training in Cardiology at the Ramos Mejia Hospital. He was appointed Research Associate at the University of Vermont under the direction of Eugene Lepeschkin in 1954 and Visiting Professor of Cardiology at the University of Kentucky, Lexington, in 1969. Until his retirement in 1986, he was Chief of Cardiology of the Salaberry Hospital (1964) and the Ramos Mejia Hospital. He ended his academic career as Honorary Professor of Medicine of the Buenos Aires University. ⇓ In the 1950s, Mauricio devoted many years to clinical and epidemiological investigations of Chagas’ disease. His findings were later reported in 26 publications. His paper on “Chagasic Myocardiopathy” (by invitation of Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases , 1964)1 was the star and is still quoted in any related publication today. The alarm set off by Rosenbaum in claiming the importance of Chagas’ disease in Argentina was the turning point in the development of national health campaigns to …

  • Bi-Modal Name and Tragicomic Fate: Delmore Schwartz’s Shenandoah Fish and Thane Rosenbaum’s Duncan Katz
    Names, 2015
    Co-Authors: Adam Meyer
    Abstract:

    AbstractDelmore Schwartz and Thane Rosenbaum are two Jewish American writers with similarly unusual names, bi-modal both in their sonority, the smooth or powerful first name followed by the guttural or trailing last name, and in their ethnic signification, an Anglo first name preceding a strongly Jewish patronymic. It is clear that the future writers’ parents, immigrants all, were trying to endow their sons with American identities, but the outrageous bi-modality of the resulting names undermined that effort, showing instead the children’s alienation from being fully connected to their native land. Schwartz and Rosenbaum explore the effects of having such names through the creation of fictional alter-egos Shenandoah Fish and Duncan Katz, respectively. Schwartz’s verse play Shenandoah and the first chapter of Rosenbaum’s novel Second Hand Smoke both focus on the central character’s naming ceremony, his bris. While each author indicates that fate has dealt his character a heavy hand by investing him with su...

  • Warning on inaccurate Rosenbaum cards for testing near vision.
    Survey of ophthalmology, 1997
    Co-Authors: Jonathan C. Horton, Matthew R. Jones
    Abstract:

    The Rosenbaum card is the most widely used handheld card for measuring near visual acuity. It was developed by Dr. J. George Rosenbaum of Cleveland, Ohio, for testing vision at the bedside of patients after cataract surgery. Millions of copies of the Rosenbaum card have been distributed free by drug companies or sold by medical supply firms. Most versions of the Rosenbaum card are inaccurate because the numbers are not scaled properly to the Snellen system. This article reviews the history of the Rosenbaum card, briefly summarizes issues raised by near vision testing, and provides standards for the manufacture of Rosenbaum near cards.

  • A FORTRAN Program for Assessing Unidimensionality of Binary Data Using Holland and Rosenbaum's Methodology.
    Multivariate behavioral research, 1993
    Co-Authors: Ratna Nandakumar
    Abstract:

    Unidimensionality is one of the important assumptions the data should satisfy in order to apply unidimensional item response models. There are several methodologies available to date to assess the dimensionality of the latent space underlying binary item responses. Rosenbaum (1984) and Holland and Rosenbaum (1986) have proved theorems concerning conditional associations that can be applied to assess dimensionality. Holland and Rosenbaum's method has been applied to assess dimensionality by Zwick (1987), Ben- Simon and Cohen (1990), and Nandakumar (1991) to various test situations. This article outlines the Holland and Rosenbaum's (1986) methodology to assess unidimensionality, illustrates the procedure through a simulated data set, and describes how to interpret the results.
