To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Health Literacy Scale for HPV Vaccination among parents of girls aged 9-14. A total of 830 parents of girls in grades 3-8 were sampled using convenience sampling in March-April 2024 in a school in a district of Shanghai, China, and item analysis was conducted using the critical ratio method, the correlation coefficient method, and Cronbach's alpha coefficients; Cronbach's alpha coefficients, Spearman-Brown split-half coefficients, and re-test reliability correlation coefficients were used for reliability evaluation, and content validity and validity factor analysis for validity testing. The scale was analyzed by item analysis to remove one indicator: "Whether a doctor's advice affects vaccination," and the final version of the scale consisted of 34 items divided into three dimensions: medical services (11 items), disease prevention (15 items) and health promotion (8 items). The Cronbach's alpha coefficients for the total scale, medical services, disease prevention dimension and health promotion dimension were 0.913, 0.848, 0.839 and 0.747, respectively; the split-half coefficients were 0.751, 0.743, 0.875 and 0.762; and the re-test reliability correlation coefficients were 0.794, 0.890, 0.785 and 0.837. Content validity was good, and the results of the validation factor analysis showed that the finalized scale model was an acceptable model fit (RMSEA = 0.041, GFI = 0.937, AGFI = 0.914. The reliability and validity of this scale is good and can be used as an assessment tool for HPV vaccine health literacy in this population.

Purpose: To enhance patient safety and improve communication and response times during the perioperative management of patients with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding, a checklist was developed, tested for psychometric properties, and implemented in clinical practice.
Design: This is a methodological study.
Methods: A perioperative checklist for acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding was developed using a literature review and the Delphi method.
High-Mobility Crystalline Hexagonal Homologous Compound IZTO Thin-Film Transistors for Next-Generation Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode Displays: A Metal-Induced Crystallization Approach.

While amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (α-IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) are practical alternatives to silicon-based TFTs, their field-effect mobility (∼50 cm/(V s), depending on deposition conditions) remains insufficient to meet the growing demands of high-resolution active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) displays. The need for high-performance oxide TFTs with mobility ≥100 cm/(V s) has become critical to meet the evolving display industry's requirements. This study explored the development of high-mobility hexagonal homologous compound (HC) indium zinc tin oxide (IZTO) TFTs as an alternative to α-IGZO TFTs.

Cardiology Division, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Biomarker and Heart Failure Clinical Trials, Baim Institute for Clinical Research, Boston, MA, United States.
Background: N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) measurement has class 1, level of evidence A recommendations in heart failure (HF) guidelines for diagnosis and prognosis. Analytical characterization of a novel automated NT-proBNP assay is necessary to examine its fitness for validation in pivotal clinical trials.
Methods: The Access NT-proBNP assay is an immunoenzymatic assay using monoclonal capture and detection reagents on the DxI 9000 Immunoassay Analyzer.
A three-stage strategy for conducting an experimental investigation: A recommendation to improve the reproducibility of reported conclusions.

British Pharmacology Society, The Schild Plot, London, UK.
The reproducibility of the results from preclinical research rests on many factors, including the selection of appropriate experimental designs for the individual experiments that constitute the investigation. The design of each of these experiments depends on their purpose within the entire investigation and the information to be gained from conducting them. Here, we explain and justify a three-stage strategy comprising a series of different types of experiment, each with a different purpose and design: a pilot study, a hypothesis-generating experiment and a final hypothesis-confirming experiment.

Background: Outcome measurement is increasingly recognised as a vital element of high-quality service provision, but practice remains variable in the field of intellectual disabilities. The Health of the National Outcome Scales for people with Learning Disabilities (HoNOS-LD) is a widely used Clinician Reported Outcome Measure in the UK and beyond. Over its 20-year lifespan, its psychometric properties have been frequently investigated.
