Adenoviruses are a known cause of self-limiting respiratory, ocular, and gastrointestinal infections in children. However, during the recent outbreak in 2021-2022, the identification of human adenoviruses (HAdV), particularly type F41, as a potential cause of severe acute hepatitis in immunocompetent children has sparked global debate. The unusual severity of liver injury and clustering of cases in immunocompetent children have prompted investigations into whether HAdV is truly hepatotropic or merely an incidental finding. Several hypotheses have been proposed, including adenovirus infection, prior severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 ) infection or adeno-associated virus-2 (AAV2) with a helper virus (HAdV) co-infection. We aim to review the emerging literature on adenovirus and other cofactors as a potential cause of the recent outbreaks of severe acute hepatitis of unknown origin in children (AHUO).

Migraine is an often-disabling condition and a common presentation to the Emergency Department (ED). Rapid and effective treatment are essential to reduce symptom burden, prevent recurrence, and improve patient outcomes. This review provides a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of the pharmacologic management of acute migraine in the ED, including first-line therapies, rescue medications, adjunctive care strategies, and considerations for special populations.

Acute abnormal uterine bleeding is a frequent reason for emergency department visits and, in severe cases, can become life-threatening. Tranexamic acid is a potential treatment option. However, its use in this setting remains under-researched.
