A systematic review of post-operative infections in pediatric ventriculoperitoneal shunt cases [PDF]

Romanian Journal of Pediatrics
Background. Hydrocephalus is a prevalent condition in children, affecting both developed and developing countries. Neurosurgical interventions such as ventriculoperitoneal shunts are common, but are associated with a high risk of complications, including

The Influence of Annealing on the Sb Layer in the Synthesis of [001]‐Oriented Sb2Se3 Film for Photoelectrochemical Hydrogen Gas Generation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
[001]‐oriented Sb2Se3 film with improved crystallinity and adjusted composition is achieved via a new thermal treatment approach consisting of preliminary annealing of the Sb layer before its selenization. The findings of this work demonstrate enhanced charge carriers' transportation, a stable performance, and an improvement of H2 generation from ...

The Challenging Clinical Management of Patients with Cranial Dural Arteriovenous Fistula and Secondary Parkinson’s Syndrome: Pathophysiology and Treatment Options

Cerebrovascular Diseases Extra, 2020
Cranial dural arteriovenous fistula (cDAVF) may rarely lead to parkinsonism and rapid cognitive decline. Dysfunction of the extrapyramidal system and the thalamus, due to venous congestion of the Galenic system with subsequent parenchymal edema, is ...

A Complementary Hole‐Transport Layer of PTAA and SAM on FTO Substrate for p‐i‐n Structured Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The complementary roles of Poly[bis(4‐phenyl)(2,4,6‐trimethylphenyl)amine (PTAA) and self‐assembly monolayer (SAM) in a composite hole transport layer for rough fluorine‐doped tin oxide substrates are demonstrated, with PTAA preferentially depositing in the valleys and SAM occupying the peaks, resulting in improved surface potential uniformity ...

Additively Manufactured Diamond for Energy Scavenging and Wireless Power Transfer in Implantable Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing is expanding beyond mechanical prosthetics into microelectronic implants. This work presents a diamond‐titanium hybrid that enables wireless power transfer, localized heating, and flow sensing. The use of additive manufacturing combined with the biocompatibility of the diamond‐titanium hybrid material paves the way toward new ...

Clinical parameters to predict adverse outcomes in patients with shunt-dependent physiology with a Blalock–Taussig–Thomas shunt

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2023
In patients with shunt-dependent physiology, early risk factor identification can facilitate the prevention of adverse outcomes. This study aims to determine a scoring system to estimate the risk for adverse outcomes after Blalock–Taussig–Thomas shunt ...
