Background: Prior research suggests that plasma may improve outcomes in traumatic brain injury (TBI). We examined the association between plasma administration and mortality in moderate-severe TBI in a large retrospective cohort, hypothesizing plasma is associated with decreased mortality after accounting for confounding covariates.

Materials And Methods: Patients from the 2017-2020 Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) dataset ≥18 years with moderate-severe TBI were included.

Article Synopsis
  • The political crisis in Peru, starting in 2016, weakened the health system, which was further tested by the COVID-19 pandemic, affecting maternal and child health (MCH) services.
  • A study analyzing health facility data revealed a significant drop in the use of MCH services in 2020, particularly in antenatal care and skilled birth assistance, with the most affected region being the Rainforest.
  • Despite the decline in 2020, service utilization rebounded in 2021, returning to pre-pandemic levels, emphasizing the importance of enhancing health system resilience for future challenges.

Background: While countries' coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emergency contingency and response plans aimed to prevent and control the spread of the virus, they also caused major disruptions to health services. We assessed the effects of COVID-19 on coverage and inequalities in select maternal, newborn, and child health services in Burkina Faso.

Methods: We analysed data from two cross-sectional household surveys conducted in two provinces, one rural and one urban.

The widespread use of tylosin family drugs in clinical practice has led to bacterial resistance and reduced therapeutic efficacy. We designed and synthesized a series of new semisynthetic derivatives of tylosin with 5--mycaminosyltylonolide as the mother nucleus, mainly by introducing a variety of amino groups at its C-23 position. Some of the compounds showed high antibacterial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Article Synopsis
  • *This study focused on the genetic causes of HI in the Malian population through whole exome sequencing, uncovering variants in multiple known HI genes and identifying a novel candidate gene, UBFD1.
  • *Results showed that 75% of the examined families had identifiable causes for HI, with many variants being newly identified and a case of digenic inheritance observed.
