The WHO International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) allows a standardized description of functioning and disability based on individual and contextual factors. The ICF adopts a biopsychosocial model of disability and functioning and is complementary to the ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases). For its implementation in clinical practice ICF-based instruments, such as the ICF core sets were developed in a standardized scientific process. These consist of the ICF categories which are most relevant for patients with specific diseases or in specific health care situations. In trauma care the ICF and ICF core sets can be applied in defined health problems and treatment situations for documentation of functioning, structured planning and implementation of interventions as well as outcome assessment.

Geriatric Research Education & Clinical Center, VA Bedford Healthcare System, Bedford, MA, USA.
Background: Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a significant contributor to hemorrhagic stroke, notably lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study describes the natural occurrence of ICH and SAH events among veterans, including those with AD, within the United States Veterans Affairs Healthcare System (VAHS).
Method: The VAHS database was evaluated to identify ICD-10 codes for ICH (I61.

Alzheimers Dement

Alzheimer's Disease & Brain Health, Eisai Inc., Nutley, NJ, USA.
Objective: Few studies have investigated trajectories in care among patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD), especially Veterans who experience a unique set of AD risk factors and challenges in access to AD immunotherapy in the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System (VAHS) of the United States.
Methods: We analyzed trajectories in care based on electronic health records (EHR) among Veterans who were assessed for AD based on ICD-10 coding within the VAHS between Oct 2015 and Jan 2024. Among Veterans with an ICD-10 code for AD in the VAHS, we examined frequency distributions of clinical visits by physician specialty (primary care, neurologist, geriatrician, psychiatrist, and other specialties) where the initial AD ICD-10 coding was recorded.
Comparison of Associations of Food Security Instruments and Mediators With Premature All-Cause and Cardiovascular Disease Death in US Adults.

Department of Epidemiology, Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, New Orleans, LA. (L.T., K.S.D., K.P.T., J.D.B.).
Background: Food insecurity is associated with high morbidity and mortality and is typically measured with the 10-item US Adult Food Security Survey Module. Shorter instruments may capture similar information, but this has not been validated against mortality in general populations.
Methods: A nationally representative sample of individuals aged 20 to 74 years from the US National Health Interview Survey 2011 to 2018 was included, with deaths linked to the National Death Index through 2019.

Department of Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis, TN.
The prognosis of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poor compared with pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL); accurate diagnosis and treatment strategies based on the genomic background are strongly needed. Recent advances in sequencing technologies have identified novel pediatric AML subtypes, including BCL11B structural variants and UBTF tandem duplications (UBTF-TD), associated with poor prognosis. In contrast, these novel subtypes do not fit into the diagnostic systems for AML of the 5th edition WHO classification or International Consensus Classifications (ICC) released in 2022.

Objective: To evaluate trends in pharmaceutical research and development, and to correlate these trends with global medical need.
Methods: We obtained details of proposed pharmaceutical substances from 1953 to 2022 from the International Nonproprietary Names (INN) database. We used the DrugBank and Cortellis databases to obtain the INN included in approved medicines over the same period.
