Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a condition that often has significant psychosocial and economic impacts on the caregivers of affected children.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the association between the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level and the psychosocial and economic impact on caregivers of children with CP.
Methodology: A hospital-based cross-sectional observational study was conducted on children with CP aged 2-14 years, admitted to the Inpatient Department (IPD) or attending the District Early Intervention Center (DEIC) for physiotherapy at a teaching hospital in Odisha, from December 2020 to November 2022.
Background: Acute diarrhea (AD), which is defined as frequent passing of liquid stools compared to normal, is a serious and worrying problem and remains a concern for healthcare systems because of its high mortality cause in children under 5 years old. The authors' study aimed to present the prevalence and to describe the clinical manifestation of AD among under-5 children.
Methods: From June 2022 to May 2023, the authors conducted a retrospective, descriptive and cross-sectional study including all patients aged 0-5 years hospitalized for AD.
Introduction And Importance: Severe pre-eclampsia is a medical condition that affects women during the last two trimesters of pregnancy. Hemorrhagic hepatic infarction is a hepatic complication and is rarely encountered in women with severe pre-eclampsia. This case report aims to present the characteristics of hemorrhagic hepatic infarction in a pregnant woman with severe pre-eclampsia.

- Acute malnutrition is a significant public health issue in the Democratic Republic of Congo, especially impacting children under 5, with a high prevalence (25%) identified in a recent study.
- The most affected age group is between 13 and 24 months, predominantly males, with Kwashiorkor being the most common type, presenting symptoms like abdominal bloating, weight loss, diarrhea, and vomiting.
- While 10.1% of the cases resulted in death, 89.9% recovered, highlighting the need for effective management, as therapeutic milk showed positive results in treatment outcomes.
Hydrothermally derived nanocubes of CeO(10 nm) were explored as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst in the partial oxidation of aromatic alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and aerobic oxidation of-nitrotoluene to-nitrobenzoic acid. The CeOnanocatalyst was characterized by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. TEM/high-resolution TEM micrographs reveal a morphology of mostly cubic nanostructures with exposed highly active {100} and {110} facets.
