    Abstract The Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) was developed to briefly measure a broad range of cognitive abilities, but it initially lacked a scale to evaluate executive functioning. Robert Spencer and colleagues recently created an Executive Errors scale (RBANS-EE) that quantified executive functioning (EF) errors committed during four RBANS subtests: List Learning, Semantic Fluency, Coding, and List Recall. In the present paper we cross-validated the RBANS-EE with a sample of 234 U.S. military veterans (

    Abstract Numerous applications exist for monitoring knee contact force (KCF) throughout activities of daily living. However, the ability to estimate these forces is restricted to a laboratory setting. The purposes of this study are to develop KCF metric estimation models and explore the feasibility of monitoring KCF metrics via surrogate measures derived from force-sensing insole data. Nine healthy subjects (3F, age 27 ± 5 years, mass 74.8 ± 11.8 kg, height 1.7 ± 0.08 m) walked at multiple speeds (0.8-1.6 m/s) on an instrumented treadmill. Thirteen insole force features were calculated as potential predictors of peak KCF and KCF impulse per step, estimated with musculoskeletal modeling. The error was calculated with median symmetric accuracy. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients defined the relationship between variables. Models develop per-limb demonstrated lower prediction error than those developed per-subject (KCF impulse: 2.2% vs 3.4%; peak KCF: 3.50% vs. 6.5%, respectively). Many insole features are moderately to strongly associated with peak KCF, but not KCF impulse across the group. We present methods to directly estimate and monitor changes in KCF using instrumented insoles. Our results carry promising implications for internal tissue loads monitoring outside of a laboratory with wearable sensors.

    Abstract We report a 40-year-old male presenting with right testicular pain. Following right orchiectomy demonstrating pT1bS0N0M0 teratoma with extensive necrosis, the patient opted for surveillance. With new retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy, the patient underwent a robotic-assisted laparoscopic retroperitoneal lymph node. After final pathology demonstrated extensive necrosis, the initial orchiectomy specimen was re-reviewed which revealed 60/40 ratio of non-seminomatous teratoma to nephroblastoma. Adult presentation of testicular nephroblastoma is exceedingly rare and such reports contribute to the understanding of adult teratoid Wilms tumor pathogenesis. This case emphasizes the need for comprehensive diagnostic approaches and further research into the pathophysiology of extrarenal teratoid Wilms tumors.

    Abstract Water interactions with soil and vegetation are greatly altered in agricultural watersheds compared to natural landscapes, which impacts sources and fates of organic carbon (OC). While mineral soil horizons in natural ecosystems primarily act as filters for dissolved organic carbon (DOC) leached from organic surface horizons, tilled soils largely lack an organic horizon and their mineral horizons therefore act as a source for both DOC and sediment to surface waters. Irrigated watersheds highlight this difference, as DOC and total suspended sediment (TSS) concentrations simultaneously increase during the low-discharge irrigation season, suggesting that sediment-associated OC may constitute a significant source of DOC. While water-soluble OC (WSOC) from sediments and soils has been found to be compositionally similar to stream DOC, these contributions remain poorly quantified in agricultural streams. To address this, we conducted abiotic solubilization experiments using sediments (suspended and bed) and soils from an irrigated agricultural watershed in northern California, USA. Sediments (R

    Abstract We consider the influence of elasticity and anisotropic surface energy on the energy-minimizing shape of a two-dimensional void under biaxial loading. In particular, we consider void shapes with corners for which the strain energy density is singular at the corner. The elasticity problem is formulated as a boundary integral equation using complex potentials. By incorporating the asymptotic behavior of the singular elastic fields at corners of the void, we develop a numerical spectral method for determining the stress for a class of arbitrary void shapes and corner angles. We minimize the total energy of surface energy and elastic potential energy using calculus of variations to obtain an Euler-Lagrange equation on the boundary that is coupled to the elastic field. The shape of the void boundary is determined using a numerical spectral method that simultaneously determines the equilibrium void shape and singular elastic fields. Our results show that the precise corner angles that minimize the total energy are not affected by the presence of the singular elastic fields. However, the stress singularity on the void surface at the corner must be balanced by a singularity in the curvature at the corner that effectively changes the macroscopic geometry of the shape and effectively changes the apparent corner angle. These results reconcile the apparent contradiction regarding the effect of elasticity on equilibrium corner angles in the results of Srolovitz and Davis (2001) and Siegel, Miksis and Voorhees (2004), and identify an important nontrivial singular behavior associated with corners on free-boundary elasticity problems.

    Abstract The Response Bias Scale (RBS) was developed to predict non-credible cognitive presentations among disability claimants without head injury. Developers used empirical keying, which is independent of apparent content, to select items from the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) item pool that distinguished between individuals passing or failing performance validity tests (PVTs). No study has examined which of these items would have psychometric value when used in clinical neuropsychological evaluations. This study reexamined items comprising RBS with reference to manifest item content, internal consistency, PVTs, and a symptom validity test (SVT) in a sample of 173 predominately White male veterans (
