IMPORTANCE: With increasing medicinal and recreational cannabis legalization, there is a public health need for effective and unbiased evaluations for determining whether a driver is impaired due to Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) exposure. Field sobriety tests (FSTs) are a key component of the gold standard law enforcement officer-based evaluations, yet controlled studies are inconclusive regarding their efficacy in detecting whether a person is under the influence of THC.
OBJECTIVE: To examine the classification accuracy of FSTs with respect to cannabis exposure and driving impairment (as determined via a driving simulation).
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel randomized clinical trial was …

Phase 1
Introduction: While utilizing satellite images to verify reports of hospital damage resulting from armed conflict allows for remote assessment, the use of private satellites to gain access to images prohibits widespread use. The questions this study sought to answer were: Is it possible to replicate the findings of previous reports of hospital damage that used the services of private satellite imagery using open source software, such as Google Earth? What variations exist among the different sites where damage to hospitals is visible, and what gradation is possible? Is this methodology applicable to other examples of armed conflict?
Methods: Using the …

Phase 1
Introduction: Medical-legal partnerships (MLPs) provide civil legal services in concert with healthcare services to mitigate complex social conditions with health-harming effects. Currently, there are 333 MLPs in 46 states. Thomas Jefferson Health System (TJHS) does not have a systemwide MLP. (Magee Rehabilitation Hospital does have an MLP used by qualifying Magee patients). This project sought to identify the core components of an MLP and to demonstrate the value an MLP would provide TJHS.
Methods: Assessed existing literature. Interviewed an existing MLP director. Patients from the Jefferson Hospital Ambulatory Practice (JHAP) clinic completed a written survey regarding health-harming social-legal …

Appropriations And Stem Cell Research Arlen Specter’S Senate Legacy, Sean Q. Kelly
Arlen Specter Center Research Fellowship
Pennsylvania Republican Senator Arlen Specter sat at the center of battles over stem cell research. Focusing on Specter’s efforts allows sustained exploration of policy entrepreneurship in the Senate. Building on Fenno’s seminal work on Arlen Specter, which focused mostly on Specter’s first term in office. Specter’s early work on criminal justice policy helped to prepare him for the weighty work involved in the stem cell debate. However, it was his ascendance on the Senate Appropriations Committee, and his position on the Labor, Health, and Human Services subcommittee in particular, that allowed him to become a leader on the stem cell …
