Article Synopsis
- - The study assessed long-term functional outcomes of children aged 6-30 who had surgery for anorectal malformations (ARMs) in various expert centers in France.
- - Findings from 367 patients indicated a significant correlation between the rectal pouch position and issues like voluntary bowel movements and soiling, as well as an increased risk of constipation linked to certain anatomical factors and surgical approaches.
- - The study emphasizes the importance of ongoing follow-up for these patients to address their specific needs and improve their functional outcomes over time.
Introduction: Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the most frequent long-term morbidity of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) survivors. Performing a preventive fundoplication during CDH repair remains controversial. This study aimed to: (1) Analyze the variability in practices regarding preventive fundoplication; (2) Identify predictive factors for fundoplication.

The primary study objective was to identify the factors associated with readmissions for respiratory causes in the first year in EA children.
Methods: A population-based study.
Motivation: Pairwise comparison problems arise in many areas of science. In genomics, datasets are already large and getting larger, and so operations that require pairwise comparisons-either on pairs of SNPs or pairs of individuals-are extremely computationally challenging. We propose a generic algorithm for addressing pairwise comparison problems that breaks a large problem (of order n2 comparisons) into multiple smaller ones (each of order n comparisons), allowing for massive parallelization.

Objective: The aim of this study was to address the experience of FEP management in children.
Study Design: A retrospective multicenter review was undertaken in children with defined FEP of the lower urinary tract managed between 2008 and 2018.
