Article Abstract
The purpose of this study was to correlate the anatomic features of the normal thorax of neonatal foals identified by CTA, with anatomical sections and gross dissections. Contrast-enhanced transverse CTA images were obtained in three neonatal foals using a helical CT scanner. All sections were imaged with a bone, mediastinal, and lung windows setting. Moreover, cardiac volume-rendered reconstructed images were obtained. After CT imaging, the cadaver foals were sectioned and dissected to facilitate the interpretation of the intrathoracic cardiovascular structures to the corresponding CTA images. Anatomic details of the thorax of neonatal foals were identified according to the characteristics of CT density of the different organic tissues and compared with the corresponding anatomical sections and gross dissections. The information obtained provided a valid anatomic pattern of the thorax of foals, and useful information for CTA studies of this region.

Early prediction of bronchopulmonary dysplasia by urinary metabolomics: a case-control study.
Thorax

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, University of Padua, Department of Women's and Children's Health, Padua, Veneto, Italy
Objective: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), the most frequent complication of extreme preterm birth, lacks not only of a comprehensive definition but also of effective treatments and predictive tools. Metabolomics is a valuable tool to unravel the underlying pathogenetic pathways of diseases and identify possible early markers. The objective of this study was to find metabolic signatures of subsequent BPD development, defined and stratified as per Jobe and Bancalari 2001 NHICD Consensus.

A 20-day-old, 0.26 kg intact female domestic shorthair kitten was presented for evaluation of labored breathing and decreased appetite. Physical examination and thoracic radiographs were consistent with bronchointerstitial pneumonia, and the cat was hospitalized and treated with antibiotics, oxygen therapy, and nutritional support through a nasogastric tube.

Background: Patent ductus arteriosus is a common complication of extreme prematurity. Prophylactic treatment with indomethacin or ibuprofen has shown efficacy on ductus closure but without reducing mortality and morbidity. Prophylactic treatment by paracetamol could be a safer alternative.

Thorax
August 2025
Newborn Services, The Royal Women's Hospital, Parkville, Victoria, Australia.
Introduction: Preterm birth is associated with poor expiratory airflow, but spirometry phenotypes are not well-described.
Objectives: To characterise abnormal spirometry phenotypes at age 8 years in children born either extremely preterm (EP; <28 weeks' gestation) or extremely low birth weight (ELBW; <1000 g birth weight), and to describe the early-life (perinatal and early growth) variables associated with each phenotype.
Methods: Participants comprised survivors born EP/ELBW in Victoria, Australia, in three eras (1991-1992, 1997 and 2005) and contemporaneous term-born controls with spirometry data at 8 years.
Neonatal mpox in Nigeria: a case of transplacental or postnatal transmission.

Department of Internal Medicine, University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Port Harcourt, Nigeria.
Background: Little information exists in the literature regarding the burden and impact of mpox infection in the newborn population since the detection of the first case of human mpox over five decades ago.
Case Presentation: We report a case of laboratory-confirmed mpox in a full-term male neonate with HIV-exposure who presented with a febrile vesiculo-pustular rash syndrome and a centrifugal pattern of distribution (marked on the scalp, face, neck and limbs and sparse on the thorax and abdomen) on day 16 of life at the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Rivers State, Nigeria. He had his first skin eruption on the fourth day of life.
