The purpose of this study was to compare brain metabolite concentrations between healthy and CHD neonates before and after cardiac surgery. Healthy term newborns and neonates with CHD were recruited prospectively. T-weighted brain images and MRS data were acquired in the cerebellum, right frontal lobe and basal ganglia.

Background: Among people with cystic fibrosis, sweat chloride and lung function response to elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ETI) is variable. We hypothesised that the presence of two versus one ETI-responsive CFTR variant could predict response variability.
Methods: In this analysis of two real-world observational studies, data from a French national cohort of adults (aged ≥18 years) with cystic fibrosis and at least one F508del variant treated with ETI and the French compassionate programme for ETI in people (aged ≥6 years) with cystic fibrosis without F508del were used to examine sweat chloride concentrations (SCCs) after ETI initiation, and the absolute change in SCC and percentage of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (ppFEV) following ETI initiation.

Background: Pathogenic responses against self and foreign antigens in systemic autoimmunity and infection, respectively, engage similar immunologic components, thus lacking distinguishing diagnostic biomarkers. Herein, we tested whether whole-blood transcriptome analysis discriminates autoimmune from infectious diseases.
Methods: We applied nested cross-validation methodology to tune and validate random forests, k-nearest neighbors, and support vector machines, using a new preprocessing method on 22 publicly available datasets, including 594 patients with a broad spectrum of systemic autoimmune diseases and 615 patients with diverse viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections.

Background: Older adults with cognitive impairment face significant challenges in maintaining oral health while the barriers and facilitators for implementing communitybased oral health interventions are uncertain.
Objective: To understand the barriers and facilitators for the implementation of oral health intervention among community-dwelling older adults with cognitive impairment.
Methods: Literature was searched in PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO, Scopus and Google Scholar.
