Background: The initial hyperbilirubinemia management recommendations published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) in 2004 and updated in 2009 led to wide variations in clinical practice among providers, with variable results. In August 2022 AAP published updated clinical practice guidelines for the management of hyperbilirubinemia. The aim of this project was to determine the effect of adaptation of the AAP guidelines on laboratory testing, readmission rates, and phototherapy.

Deterioration of neuromuscular junction (NMJ) integrity and function is causal to muscle atrophy and frailty, ultimately hindering quality of life and increasing the risk of death. In particular, NMJ is vulnerable to ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury when blood flow is restricted followed by restoration. However, little is known about the underlying mechanism(s) and hence the lack of effective interventions.

Mitochondrial health is critical for skeletal muscle function and is improved by exercise training through both mitochondrial biogenesis and removal of damaged/dysfunctional mitochondria via mitophagy. The mechanisms underlying exercise-induced mitophagy have not been fully elucidated. Here, we show that acute treadmill running in mice causes mitochondrial oxidative stress at 3-12 h and mitophagy at 6 h post-exercise in skeletal muscle.
