Article Abstract

Neonatal capillary leak syndrome (CLS) is a rare, but life-threatening condition following neonatal sepsis or inflammatory injury. The objective of this study was to describe a standardized treatment approach for CLS that improves mortality and neonatal outcomes. A retrospective cohort study of 10 infants born at 22 to 26 weeks of gestation who developed CLS following a significant inflammatory insult was performed. Time to diagnosis and treatment approaches over 2 epochs were recorded and described. In epoch 2, with increased clinical awareness of CLS and implementation of a standardized treatment approach, there was a non-statistically significant decrease in the time to treatment with a significant decrease in mortality. An early targeted treatment approach for neonatal CLS can decrease mortality rates in this highly morbid condition.

Department of Sexual and Reproductive Health including UNDP/UNFPA/UNICEF/WHO/World Bank Special Programme of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction, World Health Organization, Avenue Appia 20, 1211, Geneva, Switzerland.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the provision of sexual and reproductive health services, including contraceptive and family planning (FP) services. The World Health Organization conducted a multi-country study in India, Nigeria and Tanzania to assess the impact of the pandemic on the health system's capacity to provide contraceptive and FP services. In this paper, we share the results of a qualitative study aimed at understanding clients' perspectives at the primary healthcare level on accessing contraceptive services in COVID-19-affected areas in the three aforementioned countries.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy, also known as the classic Whipple procedure, is the most common surgical treatment for pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Postoperative complications are common and occur in approximately 50% of patients. Prompt detection and management of these complications is vital for improving patient outcomes.

Objectives: Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is a heterogeneous autoimmune condition needing targeted treatment approaches and improved understanding of molecular mechanisms driving clinical phenotypes. We utilised exploratory proteomics from a longitudinal North American cohort of patients with new-onset JDM to identify biological pathways at disease onset and follow-up, tissue-specific disease activity, and myositis-specific autoantibody (MSA) status.

Methods: We measured 3072 plasma proteins (Olink panel) in 56 patients with JDM within 12 weeks of starting treatment (from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry and 3 additional sites) and 8 paediatric controls.

As aging affects the appearance of the skin, anti-aging research has intensified in dermatology, skincare, and aesthetic medicine. Because natural aging takes a very long time, one essential anti-aging approach is to pharmacologically mimic aging, such as with D-galactose treatment. Hairless mice (HR-1) have been extensively used in skin research because of their lack of body hair and ease of animal care.

Surgical treatment for tumors located at the third ventricle and/or hypothalamic regions is significantly challenging due to the surrounding crucial neural and vascular structures. In 2013, the transventricular preforniceal approach was reported for exophytic chiasmatic/hypothalamic astrocytomas extending into the anterior third ventricle. Although this approach may be safe and effective for selected patients, this approach can only be applied when the space between the anterior commissure and the fornix is stretched by the tumor.
