Study Design: Data were collected at a university orthopedic clinic in 2012. The final sample consisted of 316 patients. Sample included new and annual follow-up adult patients for all operative and nonoperative spine care. Outcome measures consisted of the patient-reported outcome measurement information system (PROMIS) anxiety 4-item short form (SF-4), the PROMIS depression SF-4, and the distress and risk assessment method modified Zung Depression Index (mZDI).
Objective: The objective of this study was to assess whether the PROMIS anxiety 4-item short form (anxiety SF-4) or the PROMIS depression SF-4 (depression SF-4) can be used in place of the distress and risk assessment method mZDI.
Summary Of Background Data: Studies comparing the PROMIS short forms with the existing instruments are limited. In particular, there is not any published study comparing the PROMIS anxiety and depression short forms with the distress and risk assessment method mZDI.
Methods: Regression analyses were carried out to predict the mZDI total scores from the PROMIS anxiety SF-4 T scores and the PROMIS depression SF-4 T scores. Intraclass correlation coefficients were computed on the actual and predicted mZDI scores.
Results: All 3 instruments were highly correlated with each other. The PROMIS anxiety SF-4 and the PROMIS depression SF-4 were both able to explain a significant amount of variance in the mZDI. The intraclass correlation coefficients for the actual and predicted mZDI scores were high. The actual mZDI scores and predicted mZDI scores using either the PROMIS anxiety SF-4 or the PROMIS depression SF-4 across age and sex were similar.
Conclusion: This study indicates that the PROMIS anxiety SF-4 scores and the depression SF-4 scores can accurately predict the mZDI scores. The PROMIS anxiety and depression short forms can be used as surrogates for the mZDI.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.
Background: Proximal femoral varus osteotomy (PFVO) is commonly performed to improve femoral head containment and decrease deformity in Legg-Calve-Perthes disease (LCPD). Little is known about how PFVO impacts the quality of life after surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine the longitudinal changes to patient-reported physical, mental, and social health measures after PFVO.

Objective: To report patient-reported quality-of-life (QOL) outcomes in the DAYLIGHT study.
Study Design: DAYLIGHT was a phase 3b, randomized, double-blind, 24-week, placebo-controlled study. Participants were women aged ≥40 to ≤65 years with moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) considered unsuitable for hormone therapy (HT) (contraindications, caution, stoppers, or averse) randomized 1:1 to placebo or fezolinetant 45 mg once daily.
Back pain disability and PROMIS scores in children with hyperkyphosis are worse than children with idiopathic scoliosis.

Scottish Rite for Children, 2222 Welborn Street, Dallas, TX, 75219, USA.
Purpose: To compare health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) between children with hyperkyphosis and idiopathic scoliosis using 9-item Oswestry Disability Index (ODI-9) and Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain Interference, Mobility, and Anxiety.
Methods: Children with hyperkyphosis, idiopathic scoliosis, and controls with no structural diagnosis ages 10-18 years who completed the PROMIS Pediatric Pain Interference, Mobility, and Anxiety domains were retrospectively evaluated from April 2021 to June 2023. Comparisons were made between hyperkyphosis, idiopathic scoliosis, and control groups.
Validation of a Cancer-Focused Information Seeking Experience (ISEE) Scale.

Behavioral Research Program, Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences, National Cancer Institute, Rockville, Maryland, USA.
Background: Searching for health information is critical for maintaining one's health and reducing risk of disease, including cancer. However, some people are more likely to experience challenges in finding and comprehending health information; therefore, it is important to measure health information-seeking behavior. In order to add to prior research conducted with the scale, this study provides the first formal evaluation of the validity and reliability of the four-item, cancer-focused Information Seeking Experience (ISEE) scale in a cross-sectional, nationally representative health survey of U.
