Early pyloric stenosis: a case control study [PDF]
Pyloric stenosis (PS) is rare in the first 2 weeks of life, often leading to delays in diagnosis and treatment. We conducted a case control study to delineate the characteristics of patients with early PS (EPS). In addition, we tested the hypothesis that

Abstract A 5‐year‐old, captive bred, 327 g female ornate bichir (Polypterus ornatipinnis) presented with a history of reduced appetite and cranial coelomic swelling. On physical examination, the swelling was smooth, soft, devoid of masses and consistent with an enlarged stomach. No other abnormalities were detected.

Two New Stenosis Detection Methods of Coronary Angiograms [PDF]
Coronary angiography is the "gold standard" for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD). At present, the methods for detecting and evaluating coronary artery stenosis cannot satisfy the clinical needs, e.g., there is no prior study of detecting stenoses in prespecified vessel segments, which is necessary in clinical practice.

A case of “Recurrent Pyloric Stenosis” is presented. From the perspective of a senior pediatric surgeon, this is a new entity. Why? Perhaps it is because improvements in ultrasound technology have enabled earlier detection of pyloric hypertrophy.

Prevalence of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis and relation to breast feeding trends in the Maltese Islands between 1995 and 2007 [PDF]
Introduction: Several studies have indicated that breastfeeding may protect against the development of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS). This study investigated trends in IHPS over the period 1995-2007 in Malta and analysed the relationship

Identification of Genetic Variants in Status Epilepticus Associated With Fever
The detection rate of genetic variants was lower in patients with status epilepticus associated with fever (SEF) (4/15; 26.7%) than in those with DEE (17/27 63.0%). DEE revealed a wide variety of causative genes (16 different genes), whereas in SEF cases, only SCN1A variants were detected. SEF and DEE may have different onset mechanisms.
