Apnoea of prematurity (AOP) is a common complication among preterm infants (< 37 weeks gestation), globally. However, access to caffeine citrate (CC) that is a proven safe and effective treatment in high-income countries is largely unavailable in low- and-middle income countries, where most preterm infants are born. Therefore, the overall aim of this study was to describe the demand, policies, and supply factors affecting the availability and clinical use of CC in LMICs.

Purpose: People who survive a subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) often face enduring health challenges including physical disability, fatigue, cognitive impairments, psychological difficulties, and reduced quality of life. While group interventions have shown positive results in addressing similar issues in chronic conditions, the evidence involving SAH specifically is still sparse. This service evaluation aimed to explore SAH survivors' experiences of attending a multidisciplinary group-based support programme tailored to address unmet needs identified in previous literature, with the ultimate aim to refine future iterations of the programme and improve quality of care post-SAH.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates moyamoya disease in patients with brain tumors, particularly linked to neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) or prior cranial radiation, aiming to evaluate clinical outcomes after revascularization surgery.
  • A review of 27 patients revealed that those who received radiotherapy were more likely to experience severe moyamoya stages and strokes, highlighting a correlation between radiation treatment and worse neurological outcomes.
  • Despite revascularization surgery, tumor progression rates in patients remained consistent with reported rates for those who did not undergo the procedure, suggesting limited effectiveness of surgery in halting tumor growth.

Systemic resistance training aims to enhance performance by balancing stress, fatigue and recovery. While fatigue is expected, insufficient recovery may temporarily impair performance. The aim of this review was to examine evidence regarding manipulation of resistance training variables on subsequent effects on recovery and performance.
