Core Indicator Set for Measuring Quality of Care in Necrotising Enterocolitis: A European Delphi Study

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Inconsistent guidelines and practice variations in necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) hamper care improvements. A universally accepted quality indicator set is needed to standardise and improve care throughout Europe. We aimed to establish a core set relevant to NEC patients and experts.

Human hypoxia models in aerospace medicine: Potential applications for human pharmacological research

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aerospace medicine required controlled terrestrial models to investigate influences of altered atmosphere conditions, such as hypoxia, on human health and performance. These models could potentially be expanded to encompass disease conditions or treatment targets regulated through hypoxia or hypercapnia.

Six New Cases of 22q13.2 Gain Including TFC20: First Report of Triplication and Smallest Duplication Associated With Neurodevelopmental Delays

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
This study reports six new cases of 22q13.2 duplication and triplication, including the TCF20 gene, associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and various morphological and systemic abnormalities. The findings suggest a variable expressivity, but their complete penetrance remains uncertain compared to well‐established loss‐of‐function variants ...

White–Sutton Syndrome: Insight of an Italian Cohort of 19 Subjects

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
New insights into White–Sutton syndrome with a collection of 19 Italian patients. Due to its complexity, we stress the importance of a systematic evaluation following the diagnosis and a thoughtful management of patients. Preliminary genotype–phenotype correlation analysis suggests the association between disruptive splicing variants and more severe ...

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Diagnosis and treatment of occipital brain lesions in children

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Occipital brain lesions in children represent a diagnostic challenge due to the large spectrum of etiologies and overlapping clinical features. This review analyses common and less common causes of occipital brain lesions in children, including malformative, vascular, genetic/metabolic, infectious, inflammatory, and neoplastic conditions.
