Background: The application of international recommendations for paediatric maintenance haemodialysis (HD) could be strengthened by national laws or written recommendations. Our aim was therefore to describe the national rules governing paediatric maintenance HD in European countries.

Methods: A national representative, approved by the president of each paediatric nephrology society, was contacted in all 42 European countries to complete two online questionnaires.

Background: There is a lack of information on the current healthcare systems for children with kidney diseases across Europe. The aim of this study was to explore the different national approaches to the organization and delivery of pediatric nephrology services within Europe.

Methods: In 2020, the European society for Paediatric Nephrology (ESPN) conducted a cross-sectional survey to identify the existing pediatric nephrology healthcare systems in 48 European countries covering a population of more than 200 million children.

Article Synopsis
  • - Surface morphology plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of electrocatalysts, and manipulating atomic-level structures can enhance their performance.
  • - The study focused on how heat treatment in a specific reductive atmosphere at 300 °C influences the arrangement of surface atoms in platinum thin-film catalysts, improving their catalytic properties.
  • - Results showed that increasing the proportion of (100) planes through thermal annealing can boost catalyst performance for methanol oxidation reactions significantly, highlighting a method for designing better electrocatalysts.

Background: Surgical site infection (SSI) in laryngeal cancer (LC) patients significantly increases morbidity and may postpone adjuvant therapy. Additionally, SSI can prolong hospitalization, thus representing a burden for the healthcare system. Most of the published studies refer to SSI after salvage laryngectomy.

The expansion of fish farming globally, driven by rising demand for fish as a food source, has raised substantial environmental concerns due to its impact on aquatic ecosystems. This study investigates the effects of fish farming effluents on taxonomic and functional diversity of macroinvertebrate community and test how taxonomic resolution impacts their effectiveness as pollution indicators. Macroinvertebrate samples were collected from seven trout farms, with sampling sites categorized based on proximity to farm effluents.
