<jats:p><jats:bold>Background and Objectives:</jats:bold> This study aims to translate and culturally adapt the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) for Latin American Spanish–speaking patients, enhancing the tool’s accessibility for evaluating postsurgical functional outcomes in sarcoma patients across Latin America.</jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:</jats:bold> The TESS questionnaires for lower extremity (LE) and upper extremity (UE) were translated and adapted following international guidelines. The process included forward and backward translation, expert committee review, and pretesting with cognitive interviewing. Patients treated for bone or soft tissue tumors in LE or UE were recruited to complete the adapted questionnaires. Test–retest reliability was evaluated by having participants complete the questionnaire again 2 weeks after the initial assessment.</jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:</jats:bold> A total of 89 participants completed the questionnaires. The study found high internal consistency, with Cronbach’s alpha values reaching 0.9437 for LE and 0.9402 for UE. An agreement rate of 98.4% for the global score of TESS‐LE (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.909–1.059) and 93.9% for TESS‐UE (95% CI: 0.882–0.995) was observed, demonstrating strong test–retest reliability.</jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:</jats:bold> The Latin American Spanish version of TESS for both lower and upper extremities is a reliable and culturally appropriate tool for assessing physical function in limb sarcoma patients. Further validation across diverse Latin American populations is encouraged to strengthen its broad applicability.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is one of the leading causes of dementia before age 65 and often manifests as abnormal behavior (in behavioral variant FTD) or language impairment (in primary progressive aphasia). FTD's exact clinical presentation varies by culture, language, education, social norms, and other socioeconomic factors; current research and clinical practice, however, is mainly based on studies conducted in North America and Western Europe. Changes in diagnostic criteria and procedures as well as new or adapted cognitive tests are likely needed to take into consideration global diversity. This perspective paper by two professional interest areas of the Alzheimer's Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer's Research and Treatment examines how increasing global diversity impacts the clinical presentation, screening, assessment, and diagnosis of FTD and its treatment and care. It subsequently provides recommendations to address immediate needs to advance global FTD research and clinical practice.</jats:p>

“There Is No (Where a)<i>Face</i>Like Home”: Recognition and Appraisal Responses to Masked Facial<i>Dialects</i>of Emotion in Four Different National Cultures

<jats:p>The theory of universal emotions suggests that certain emotions such as fear, anger, disgust, sadness, surprise and happiness can be encountered cross-culturally. These emotions are expressed using specific facial movements that enable human communication. More recently, theoretical and empirical models have been used to propose that universal emotions could be expressed via discretely different facial movements in different cultures due to the non-convergent social evolution that takes place in different geographical areas. This has prompted the consideration that own-culture emotional faces have distinct evolutionary important sociobiological value and can be processed automatically, and without conscious awareness. In this paper, we tested this hypothesis using backward masking. We showed, in two different experiments per country of origin, to participants in Britain, Chile, New Zealand and Singapore, backward masked own and other-culture emotional faces. We assessed detection and recognition performance, and self-reports for emotionality and familiarity. We presented thorough cross-cultural experimental evidence that when using Bayesian assessment of non-parametric receiver operating characteristics and hit-versus-miss detection and recognition response analyses, masked faces showing own cultural dialects of emotion were rated higher for emotionality and familiarity compared to other-culture emotional faces and that this effect involved conscious awareness.</jats:p>

<jats:p>In this article, meanings and practices in intercultural health for international migrants in health establishments are described from the perspective of health personnel in the city of Antofagasta in northern Chile. Methodology: The methodology was qualitative with a phenomenological descriptive design, through which discourses from health personnel in the public primary and secondary care system were explored (n = 23). Next, meanings and practices in intercultural health for international migrants in health establishments are described from the perspective of health personnel in the northern Chilean city of Antofagasta. Results: The participants presented trees of thematic categories. There were three thematic categories overall: (1) The meaning of interculturality included features of understanding of the concept, with respect for culture being the transversal axis in all discourses. (2) Practices in health care, where voluntariness, references, and the adequacy or non-technicality of the language are fundamental axes. (3) Training in the intercultural approach, where there is often self-knowledge and lack of supply in the health system. Conclusions: The findings show essential elements to consider in the care of international migrants, including the training and awareness of staff about the intercultural approach through strategies following the local reality in which each health establishment exists.</jats:p>
