Objective: This study describes the creation and examination of the internal consistency, content validity, construct/structural validity, and criterion/concurrent validity of the Select Medical Patient Reported Experience Measure (SM-PREM).
Design: Observational study design.
Setting: 1054 Outpatient physical and occupational therapy locations in North America.
Participants: The study included 89,205 patients with various musculoskeletal disorders (N=89,205).
Intervention: Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures: Content validity was described, and internal consistency, construct/structural validity (factor analysis), and criterion/concurrent validity were analyzed, with concurrent validity compared against patient reported outcomes (PROM), the Net Promoter Scale, and the Orebro Musculoskeletal Screening Questionnaire-12.
Results: Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis of the SM-PREM yielded 3 dimensions, each with a very strong internal consistency (>.850). The SM-PREM yielded statistically significant results in all areas, with values that reflected minimal to fair association with PROMs.
Conclusion: The SM-PREM appears to capture a unique construct compared to PROMs. The 11-item tool has 3 definitive dimensions and exhibits strong internal consistency. The tool may be useful in examining patient experience in patients with musculoskeletal injuries seen by physical and occupational therapists.

Rates and Predictors of Malignancy in Bethesda III and IV Thyroid Nodules: A Prospective Study.

Internal Medicine, University of Alexandria, Alexandria, EGY.
Aim: Thyroid nodules, based on high-resolution ultrasonography (HRUS), are among the most common endocrine abnormalities that affect the general population because of their high estimated prevalence rates. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a safe, cost-effective modality to differentiate between benign and malignant thyroid nodules based on the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (BSRTC), thus avoiding unnecessary surgery. However, categories III and IV of BSRTC remain a controversial issue in clinical practice, encompassing a wide range of risks of malignancy.

Malignant hyperthermia is a pharmacogenetic disorder that manifests clinically as a hypermetabolic crisis when a patient with a mutation in the ryanodine or dihydropyridine receptor genes is exposed to neuromuscular blocking agents. Depolarizing neuromuscular agents are known to cause malignant hyperthermia, but cases caused by nondepolarizing agents are rarely reported. We present a case consistent with malignant hyperthermia after receipt of cisatracurium, a nondepolarizing anesthetic agent.

Purpose Of Review: We present current evidence on the associations among sleep, pain, and medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD).
Recent Findings: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PsycInfo, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library from inception until September 2023 for original research studies examining sleep, pain, and MOUD. We identified 19 manuscripts (14 were cross-sectional studies, four were prospective cohort studies, and one was a randomized controlled trial).
Validation of existential fulfillment scale in Chinese university students.
Front Psychol

School of Psychology, Fujian Normal University, Fuzhou, Fujian, China.
Introduction: This study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of the Existential Fulfillment Scale (EFS) in a Chinese university student sample, emphasizing the cultural fit of the scale.
Methods: A cohort of 1,600 undergraduate students from six universities in Fujian Province completed questionnaires including the EFS, Meaning of Life Questionnaire (MLQ), Index of Well-Being (IWB), and Self-Depression Scale (SDS). We conducted item analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and assessments of criterion-related validity, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability.
Objectives: The major emphasis of physical therapy in patient evaluation is the assessment of physical function, and the Patient-Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) is one of the most commonly used instruments for this purpose. Therefore, the present study aims to translate and cross-culturally adapt the PSFS into Persian and test its psychometric properties in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP).
Methods: The PSFS was translated from English to Persian and cross-culturally adapted in accordance with the study by Beaton et al.
