Background: Data on infections in children are scarce in the context of earthquakes. Here, we describe our clinical experiences regarding infections in pediatric victims after the earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş/Türkiye.
Methods: Trauma patients after the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes, aged under 18 years and admitted to our hospital, were evaluated retrospectively.
Background: Various trainings focus on the submental muscles (SMs) for dysphagia rehabilitation because of their importance for swallowing safety and efficiency. According to the current literature, swallow-specific tasks may be optimal exercises for dysphagia. The effortful swallow (ES) and the Masako maneuver (MM) are the most commonly used swallow-specific tasks in the clinical settings for dysphagia for years, but long-term effects for these trainings is insufficient.

Mixed-conducting perovskites containing nondilute Fe─serving as electrodes, catalysts, and sensors─can support large, electronically accommodated excursions in oxygen content, typically controlled by temperature, bias, and gas atmosphere. Instead, we investigated the ability of low-fluence, above-bandgap illumination to adjust oxygen stoichiometry and drive oxygen fluxes in nondilute Sr(TiFe)O ( = 0.

- Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is increasingly common in aging populations, and while surgery is standard, treatments like dexamethasone (Dex) and atorvastatin (Ato) are being researched for high-risk patients despite a higher mortality risk.
- A study was conducted with 95 rats to analyze the effects of dexamethasone-atorvastatin versus bevacizumab (Bev), using autologous blood injections to simulate cSDH, and monitoring health through weight changes.
- Results showed both treatment groups were effective, with maximum immune response on day 14, but Dex-Ato caused weight loss, while Bev was better tolerated and emerged as a potential alternative treatment for c
AMX Zintl compounds, crystallizing in several closely related layered structures, have recently garnered attention due to their exciting thermoelectric properties. In this study, we show that orthorhombic CaAgSb can be alloyed with hexagonal CaAgBi to achieve a solid solution with a structural transformation at ∼ 0.8.
