This study examined the content validity of the Clark-Madison Test of Oral Language (CMTOL) as a measure of nonwritten expressive language with hearing-impaired children. Twenty severely hearing-impaired children were administered the CMTOL using total communication. All test administrations were considered valid. The content of the test was generally found to be valid. The content validity of selected items is discussed. A comparison of the performance of the hearing-impaired to a group of normal-hearing respondents revealed a different profile of strengths and weaknesses than did intragroup analysis.

Introduction: Although there are acceptable medical reasons for the use of food supplements, most prescriptions for newborns do not comply with current recommendations, putting continued breastfeeding at risk. This study aimed to create and validate a flowchart for newborn supplement prescription.
Methods: The flowchart was created and submitted to two rounds of assessments by a panel of judges, who calculated the content validity index (CVI) (acceptable > 0.

Bone mechanical function is determined by multiple factors, some of which are still being elucidated. Here, we present a multivariate analysis of the role of bone tissue composition in the proximal femur stiffness of cadaver bones (n = 12, age 44-93). Stiffness was assessed by testing under loading conditions simulating a sideways fall onto the hip.

Background: Accurate electroanatomic mapping is critical for identifying scar and the long-term success of ventricular tachycardia ablation.
Objectives: This study sought to determine the accuracy of multielectrode mapping (MEM) catheters to identify scar on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and histopathology.
Methods: In an ovine model of myocardial infarction, we examined the effect of electrode size, spacing, and mapping rhythm on scar identification compared to CMR and histopathology using 5 multielectrode mapping catheters.

Vaccine hesitancy, recognized by the WHO as a significant global health threat, undermines vaccination efforts. This study aimed to adapt and validate the Parent Attitudes about Childhood Vaccines (PACV) Survey for Croatian parents to understand vaccine hesitancy better. A cross-sectional study with 1814 Croatian parents was conducted using the PACV survey, translated using a double-back translation method.
