A 44-year-old man with a history of tricuspid atresia and discontinuous pulmonary arteries with palliative correction from a Waterston procedure and a modified central shunt presented with back pain, fevers, dyspnea, and cough. Treatment for pneumonia was unsuccessful. On computed tomography angiography he was found to have a subacute pulmonary embolism, potentially iatrogenic.

Anatomically corrected malposition (ACM) of the great arteries is an exceedingly rare congenital heart disease. This conotruncal anomaly manifests with an L-malposition of the aorta (situs solitus, D loop, aorta to the left of the pulmonary artery) with normal ventriculoarterial concordance. A 14-month-old boy presented with an ACM associated with a ventricular septal defect that was successfully repaired.

Background: The implementation of the standard Ponseti technique (SPT) in management of idiopathic clubfoot can be challenging due to the need for frequent travelling and long duration to achieve correction. The one week accelerated Ponseti technique (OWAPT) reduces the duration of correction to seven days and has been reported to be effective and safe. However, children still need to travel for change of cast.

Audiology and Speech Pathology Center, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Bethesda, Maryland, USA.
Objectives: The objective of this project was to quantify the relative efficacy of a four-frequency pure-tone average in the better ear (PTA4), the Hearing subscale of the Tinnitus and Hearing Survey (THS-H), and a combination of the two in predicting speech-in-noise performance, hearing aid recommendation, and hearing aid use among United States service members (SMs).
Design: A two-analysis retrospective study was performed. The first analysis examined the degree to which better-ear PTA4 alone, THS-H alone, and better-ear PTA4 in conjunction with THS-H predicted performance on a speech-in-noise test, the modified rhyme test.

Background: The increasing availability of electronic health system data and remotely-sensed environmental variables has led to the emergence of statistical models capable of producing malaria forecasts. Many of these models have been operationalized into malaria early warning systems (MEWSs), which provide predictions of malaria dynamics several months in advance at national and regional levels. However, MEWSs rarely produce predictions at the village-level, the operational scale of community health systems and the first point of contact for the majority of rural populations in malaria-endemic countries.
