ABSTRACT In malaria‐endemic regions, repeated episodes of uncomplicated malaria during infancy are common; however, their associations with neurodevelopment remain unclear. We examined relationships between malaria frequency in infancy and neurodevelopmental outcomes in early and middle childhood, using data from the APEC birth cohort nested within the

ABSTRACT Skin aging is associated with progressive collagen loss and dermal thinning, supporting the use of biomaterials capable of stimulating tissue remodeling. Poly‐l‐lactic acid (PLLA) and hyaluronic acid (HA) are widely used in facial rejuvenation, although their combined application remains less investigated in controlled clinical settings.
