Over the edge: Empirical evidence for the cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection maintains that larger neonates and smaller birth canals confer a positive selective advantage until labor becomes obstructed and vaginal delivery is no longer possible, eliciting an abrupt reduction in fitness.

Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.

Therapeutic drug monitoring of antimicrobials in a paediatric setting: A retrospective single‐centre study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Paediatric pharmacokinetics differ significantly from adults due to age‐related physiological changes, necessitating precise dose adjustments. However, data on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) implementation in paediatric setting remain limited.

Contraindicated drug–drug interactions and associated adverse drug reactions in an observational cohort study of 4543 paediatric hospitalized patients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Drug–drug interactions (DDIs) are associated with an increased risk of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Hospitalized children are particularly vulnerable to DDIs and ADRs due to polypharmacy, frequent use of unlicensed or off‐label medications, and dosing regimens often extrapolated from adult data.

Optimal dosing for vascular anomalies paediatric patients with population pharmacokinetic model of sirolimus

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Sirolimus is currently used off‐label for paediatric patients with vascular anomalies. However, the optimal dosage regimen for paediatric patients remains controversial. This study aimed to determine the optimal dosing regimen of sirolimus in these patients using a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model.

Plasma C24:0- and C26:0-lysophosphatidylcholines are reliable biomarkers for the diagnosis of peroxisomal β-oxidation disorders

Journal of Lipid Research
The gold-standard diagnostic test for peroxisomal disorders (PDs) is plasma concentration analysis of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs). However, this method’s time-consuming nature and limitations in cases which present normal VLCFA levels ...
