Post-cardiac arrest syndrome is a unique pathophysiologic condition that is well-described in adult and pediatric populations. Early, goal-directed care after cardiac arrest can mitigate ongoing injury, improve clinical outcomes, and prevent re-arrest. There is a paucity of evidence about post-cardiac arrest care in the NICU, however, pediatric principles and guidelines can be applied in the NICU in the appropriate clinical context.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to determine how well Ga-labelled PSMA PET metrics can predict long-term biochemical failure-free survival (BFFS) after treatment for prostate cancer.
  • A prospective analysis included 183 men who underwent PSMA PET for newly diagnosed prostate cancer before receiving treatments like radiotherapy or radical prostatectomy.
  • Results showed that a higher PSMA SUV in the prostate is linked to a lower BFFS, indicating that even low-risk individuals with high PSMA SUV may face significant risks of biochemical failure.

Introduction: Data on near- and long-term clinical outcomes are critical for the care of all maternal-fetal patients presenting to a fetal center. This is especially important since physiologic and neurodevelopmental attributes do not manifest until later childhood when multilevel (e.g.

Quantitative evidence synthesis methods aim to combine data from multiple medical trials to infer relative effects of different interventions. A challenge arises when trials report continuous outcomes on different measurement scales. To include all evidence in one coherent analysis, we require methods to "map" the outcomes onto a single scale.

Delivery room resuscitation of infants with surgical conditions can be complex and depends on an experienced and cohesive multidisciplinary team whose performance is more important than that of any individual team member. Existing resuscitation algorithms were not developed for infants with congenital anomalies, and delivery room resuscitation is largely dictated by expert opinion extrapolating physiologic expectations from infants without anomalies. As prenatal diagnosis rates improve, there is an increased ability to plan for the unique delivery room needs of infants with surgical conditions.
