Pediatric Fungal Septic Arthritis Following Intra-articular Administration of the Two-Month Vaccination: A Case Report.

The majority of pediatric fungal septic arthritis patients are infants. Risk factors include prematurity and neonatal septicemia with prolonged hospitalization. Here, we present a case of a two-month-old male infant, preterm at 28 weeks and NICU graduate.

The Epidemiology of Sport-Related Spinal Cord Injuries in the Gulf Region: A Systematic Review.

Traumatic spinal cord injuries (TSCIs) can lead to life-threatening consequences and neurological deficits. Sports activities significantly contribute to the incidence of these injuries. It is important to understand the epidemiology of sport-related spinal cord injuries (SCIs) in the Gulf region to improve patient care and increase awareness among this population.

A Comparative Analysis of Complication Rates in Arthroscopic Repair of the Lateral Ankle Ligament and the Brostrom-Gould Technique: A Systematic Review.

Injury to the lateral ligament is the most common cause of chronic lateral ankle instability. Lateral ankle instability is usually managed through conservative management, but surgery is indicated if this fails to relieve the symptoms. Surgical repair of the lateral ligament involves many surgical techniques including the arthroscopic repair technique and the modified Brostrom-Gould technique.

An Overview of Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip and Its Management Timing and Approaches.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), if uncorrected, can result in several chronic abnormalities, including chronic hip pain, degenerative arthritis, and gait abnormalities. The outcome of DDH generally depends on the age of presentation; a worse prognosis is linked to a higher age of presentation. Although treatment continues to be a challenge, recent advancements in the field have improved our understanding of the disease, which has resulted in advancements in DDH surveillance during infancy and the reduction of complications with early intervention.

Outcomes of Endoscopic Resection in Pediatric Skull Base Chordoma: A Systematic Review.

The endoscopic approach has been recommended as a primary option for treating chordomas, and it is associated with better resection rates and fewer surgical complications than transcranial surgery. This review aimed to assess the long-term consequences and evidence in the current literature regarding the endoscopic approach's efficacy in treating skull-base chordoma in children. A systematic review was conducted based on the PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases to examine the clinical outcomes of endoscopic endonasal surgery for pediatric skull base chordoma tumors.

The Effectiveness of Anti-Interleukin-17A Treatment for Pityriasis Rubra Pilaris: A Systematic Review.

Anti-interleukin-17A (anti-IL-17A) therapy has been increasingly employed as a treatment option for pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP). In this study, we reviewed all available studies on this topic in the literature to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-IL-17A. Our main objective was to assess the current evidence on the efficacy and safety of anti-IL-17A therapy in the management of PRP.

A Systemic Review of Spinal Needles Broken During Neuraxial Anesthesia.

Needle breakage during spinal anesthesia occurs infrequently and represents a serious complication with potentially adverse effects. The objective of this systemic review was to look at the incidence, risk factors, and preventative measures for broken spinal needles. A search of the literature on PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases and a manual web search was performed, with no filters and up to April 2023 from inception.

Risk Models to Predict Mortality in Burn Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Unlabelled: The predictive capability of various risk assessment models (RAMs) in evaluating the risk of mortality in burn patients is not well established. It is also unclear which RAM provides the highest discriminative ability and presents the highest clinical utility. We pooled all available studies to establish this validity and compare the predictive capability of the various RAMs.
