Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC) and nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) for prevention of extubation failure in preterm infants.

Methods: Preterm infants (gestation ≥28 weeks) were randomized to HHHFNC or nCPAP after extubation. Primary outcome was extubation failure within 72 h of extubation.

Philadelphia-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children had a worse outcome before the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. We have evaluated the demographics and outcome of Ph+ ALL patients treated with imatinib without blood marrow transplantation. Of the 206 children with ALL registered for treatment, the demographic data of 15 Ph+ ALL patients were compared with the remaining Ph- patients.
