    Abstract Research assessing the validity and reliability of many forensic science disciplines has been published; however, the quality of this research varies depending on the methodologies employed. This was a major point of contention with the United States' President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, who recognized the existing literature but found the majority lacking because of methodological issues. Questionable scientific methodologies have undermined the forensic science community's ability to defend the scientific foundations and examination protocols used to examine evidence in criminal cases. Such scientific failures have significant legal implications. Registered reports, which strengthen the quality of scientific research and reliability of laboratory protocols, can provide transparency, validity and a stronger scientific foundation for forensic science.

    Abstract Background: Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) have been used to provide insight into the patient experience while uncovering an opportunity to improve patient care. Current studies document responsiveness of outcomes using the Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) for a variety of orthopedic problems but are not specific to a physical therapy interval of care.
    Purpose: The main purpose of this study was to examine responsiveness of the PROMIS Physical Function (PF) and Pain Interference (PI) scales across an interval of care for physical therapy in patients with foot and ankle conditions.
    Methods: Adult records (299 records, averaged 45.1 ± 15.4 years; 61% female) were assessed. Comparisons between pre- and post-physical therapy intervals of care were evaluated using a repeated-measures ANOVA, and the effect size was reported using Cohen's
    Results: PROMIS PF scores significantly improved from 38.5 ± 8.8 to 45.2 ± 9.1 (6.6;
    Conclusions: The person-centered PROMIS PF and PI outcome measures were responsive to change following an interval of care in physical therapy for a large sample of orthopedic patients with foot and ankle diagnoses. The magnitude of change was dependent on starting score and diagnosis.

    Abstract An intercomparison between a transfer piston gage used by the Laboratoire National d'Essais (LNE) and a primary standard piston gage of the National Bureau of Standards was performed over the range of pressure of 0.4 to 3.9 MPa. The agreement between the computation of the effective area of the LNE gage by the two laboratories was within 6.4 ppm and the agreement between the average of the pressures generated by these two gages was within 3.3 ppm, well below the estimated uncertainty of either gage (NBS 30 ppm and LNE 24 ppm).

    Abstract Background: Diabetes mellitus and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are independent risk factors for poor outcomes among people with tuberculosis (TB). To date, information on the joint impact of diabetes and HIV on TB outcomes is limited. We aimed to estimate (1) the association between hyperglycemia and mortality and (2) the effect of joint exposure to diabetes and HIV on mortality.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study among people with TB in the state of Georgia between 2015 and 2020. Eligible participants were 16 or older, did not have a previous TB diagnosis, and were microbiologically confirmed or clinical cases. Participants were followed during TB treatment. Robust Poisson regression was used to estimate risk ratios for all-cause mortality. Interaction between diabetes and HIV was assessed on the additive scale using the attributable proportion and on the multiplicative scale with product terms in regression models.
    Results: Of 1109 participants, 318 (28.7%) had diabetes, 92 (8.3%) were HIV positive, and 15 (1.4%) had diabetes and HIV. Overall, 9.8% died during TB treatment. Diabetes was associated with an increased risk of death among people with TB (adjusted risk ratio [aRR] = 2.59; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.62-4.13). We estimated that 26% (95% CI, -43.4% to 95.0%) of deaths among participants with diabetes mellitus and HIV were due to biologic interaction.
    Conclusions: Diabetes alone and co-occurring diabetes and HIV were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality during TB treatment. These data suggest a potential synergistic effect between diabetes and HIV.

    Abstract Intercomparisons were performed between a primary standard gas piston gauge of the Istituto di Metrologia "G. Colonnetti" (IMGC) and two gauges at the National Bureau of Standards. The agreement between the average pressure generated by the IMGC primary standard and the NBS transfer gauge was within 7 ppm (over the range 0.75 to 5.0 MPa) and the agreement between the IMGC primary standard and the NBS primary standard was within 6 ppm (over the range 0.5 to 1.5 MPa). The agreement is well within the estimated uncertainties of the gauges: 24 ppm for the IMGC primary gauge, 30 ppm for the NBS transfer gauge, and 28 ppm for the NBS primary gauge.

    Abstract Objective: Responsive neurostimulation (RNS) is a US FDA-approved form of neuromodulation to treat patients with focal-onset drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) who are ineligible for or whose condition is refractory to resection. However, the FDA approval only extends to use in patients with one or two epileptogenic foci. Recent literature has shown possible efficacy of thalamic RNS in patients with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and multifocal epilepsy. The authors hypothesized that RNS of thalamic nuclei may be effective in seizure reduction for patients with multifocal or regionalized-onset DRE.
    Methods: The authors performed a retrospective chart review of all patients who had an RNS device managed at Texas Children's Hospital between July 2016 and September 2023, with at least one active electrode in the thalamic nuclei and ≥ 12 months of postimplantation follow-up. Information conveyed by the patient or their caregiver provided data on the change in the clinical seizure frequency, quality of life (QOL), and seizure severity between the preimplantation baseline visit and the last office visit (LOV).
    Results: Thirteen patients (ages 8-24 years) were identified with active RNS leads in thalamic nuclei (11 centromedian and 2 anterior nucleus). At LOV, 46% of patients reported 50%-100% clinical seizure reduction (classified as responders), 15% reported 25%-49% reduction, and 38% reported < 25% reduction or no change. Additionally, 42% of patients reported subjective improvement in QOL and 58% reported improved seizure severity. Patients with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) responded strongly: 3 of 5 (60%) reported ≥ 80% reduction in seizure burden and improvement in seizure severity and QOL. Patients with multifocal epilepsy and bilateral thalamocortical leads also did well, with all 3 reporting ≥ 50% reduction in seizures.
    Conclusions: RNS of thalamic nuclei shows promising results in reducing seizure burden for patients with multifocal or regional-onset DRE, particularly in a bilateral thalamocortical configuration or when addressing an underlying FCD.

    Abstract Since 2016, there has been an increase in reported cases of intelligence officers and diplomats hearing pulsing sounds and experiencing neurophysiologic and cognitive symptoms. These varied and often intense symptoms manifest in ways similar to a traumatic brain injury (TBI) but without inciting trauma. Known formerly as "unconventionally acquired brain injury" (UBI), these events are now labeled "anomalous health incidents" (AHIs). Investigations of these incidents suggest reasons to be concerned that a specific type of neuroweapon may be the cause-a directed energy weapon (DEW). Neuroweapons that target the brain to influence cognition and behavior are leading to a new domain of warfare-neurowarfare. The implications and resultant stakes, especially for the Special Operations community, are significant. This article focuses specifically on the implications of DEWs as a neuroweapon causing UBIs/AHIs for military medical practitioners and suggests using a comprehensive strategy, analogous to that of chemical warfare or other weapons of mass destruction (WMD), to improve our preparedness for the medical repercussions of neurowarfare.
