- The study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography) and EUS (endoscopic ultrasound) in children with chronic and acute recurrent pancreatitis, analyzing data from 2008 to 2022.
- A total of 222 ERCP procedures were conducted, showing high technical success (98%), significant improvements in stricture resolution (63%), and a low adverse event rate (3.6%), along with substantial pain relief for 76% of patients.
- Additionally, 54 EUS procedures highlighted low complication rates (2.4%), confirming that both ERCP and EUS are safe and beneficial for paediatric patients, mirroring findings in adults.
Chiral achiral crystal structures of 4-benzyl-1-pyrazole and its 3,5-di-amino derivative.
Acta Crystallogr E Crystallogr Commun
June 2024
The crystal structures of 4-benzyl-1-pyrazole (CHN, ) and 3,5-di-amino-4-benzyl-1-pyrazole (CHN, ) were measured at 150 K. Although its different conformers and atropenanti-omers easily inter-convert in solution by annular tautomerism and/or rotation of the benzyl substituent around the C(pyrazole)-C(CH) single bond (as revealed by H NMR spectroscopy), crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group 2. Within its crystal structure, the pyrazole and phenyl aromatic moieties are organized into alternating bilayers.

We provide an update on a previous systematic review of evidence on BA-delivered in-person, telephone, or online-for depression and comorbid anxiety in children and adolescents. We conducted systematic literature searches in 6 databases up to February 2024.

Int J Environ Res Public Health
January 2024
Background: Female athletic performance and injury risk is impacted by variations in the menstrual cycle (MC), but the understanding of the impacts and mechanisms influenced by the menstrual cycle on exercise performance are not fully delineated.
Aims And Objectives: Evaluate associations between the menstrual cycle, perceived performance, and injury risk of elite female rugby players using an online survey.
Methods: An anonymous online questionnaire was completed by 150 elite female rugby players from two English rugby leagues, the Betfred Women's Super League (BWSL) and the Allianz Premier 15s (AP15s).
