Article Abstract
Aim: To examine the rates of follow-up at two years of age and perinatal factors associated with non-compliance in an observational population-based cohort of very preterm children enrolled in a routine follow-up program.
Method: Data review of infants born between 2008 and 2012 in the Observatoire de La Grande Prématurité, Reunion Island cohort. All singletons born alive before 33weeks of gestational age and resident on the island at two years of age were included. Patients were considered compliant if they were timely evaluated between 20-28months of age, or non-compliant if they were not evaluated or evaluated after 28months of age.
Results: Of the 802 survivors (mean gestational age of 30.3±2.0months, mean birthweight of 1364±396g), 468 (58.4%) were examined between 20-28months, 119 (14.8%) after 28months of age, and 215 (26.8%) were never evaluated, respectively. In multivariate analysis, factors associated with non-compliance were higher parity (>2), past history of preterm delivery, maternal diabetes (preexisting or gestational), appropriate for gestational status, and centre of birth.
Conclusion: Sustainable follow-up of vulnerable neonates remains a challenge in clinical practice. Early predictors of non-compliance can be used to define individualized and local follow-up strategies in these infants at high risk for developmental disabilities.

Refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a severe complication following umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). Antiviral agents, the standard first-line therapy, are limited by toxicity and resistance without robust T-cell immunity. We evaluated third-party donor (TPD)-derived CMV-specific T cells (CMVSTs) as a treatment option.

Background: Limited evidence exists regarding the cognitive and physical improvement effects of medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) intake in patients with stroke. This study aimed to investigate the association between MCT-enhanced rice consumption and enhancements in outcomes, including cognitive level, in patients following stroke.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study on adults admitted to a rehabilitation center with cognitive decline following acute stroke.

Background: Antithrombotic treatment might affect bleeding symptoms, identification of bleeding source and treatment for patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding. This study aims to investigate possible differences in initial bleeding symptoms, identified bleeding site and treatment of patients with or without antithrombotic medication admitted for gastrointestinal bleeding.
Methods: All consecutive adult patients primarily admitted for gastrointestinal bleeding at Skane University Hospital between 2018-01-01 and 2019-06-31, were included in this study.
