Article Synopsis
  • This study evaluates the effectiveness of the axillary surgical approach for treating Ideberg type I and II scapular glenoid fractures in 13 patients across multiple hospitals in China between December 2020 and January 2022.
  • The patient group included 8 males and 5 females, averaging 57.5 years old, with various fracture types and some patients also having shoulder dislocations or rotator cuff tears.
  • Following surgery, which averaged about 86 minutes with minimal blood loss and hospital stays around 10 days, all patients showed good recovery outcomes, including positive scores for shoulder function and pain management during the 12 to 25-month follow-up period.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment effectiveness of colorectal polyps in children, focusing on a retrospective analysis of 1,351 cases over the last eight years.
  • Most affected children were boys aged 2-7, with hematochezia being the most common symptom; solitary juvenile polyps were the predominant type found.
  • The primary treatment method was electrocautery, with low complication rates, although younger patients and those with larger polyps showed higher risks of postoperative bleeding and other complications.*

To investigate whether probiotic supplementation could reduce the risk of fungal infection in preterm neonates in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), we systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) focusing on the effect of probiotics on fungal infection in preterm neonates. The outcomes of interest were Candida colonization and invasive fungal sepsis. Seven trials involving 1371 preterm neonates were included.

The effect of probiotics on late-onset sepsis (LOS) in preterm neonates remains controversial. The authors systematically reviewed the literature to investigate whether enteral probiotic supplementation reduced the risk of LOS in preterm neonates in neonatal intensive care units.PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) regarding the effect of probiotics in preterm neonates.

Most studies investigated probiotics on food hypersensitivity, not on oral food challenge confirmed food allergy in children. The authors systematically reviewed the literature to investigate whether probiotic supplementation prenatally and/or postnatally could reduce the risk of atopy and food hypersensitivity in young children.PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and 4 main Chinese literature databases (Wan Fang, VIP, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and SinoMed) were searched for randomized controlled trials regarding the effect of probiotics on the prevention of allergy in children.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of resistance of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) to metronidazole (MTZ) and the distribution change of minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) in H. pylori from local children, evaluate the applicability of E-test for MIC determination, and display the propensity of acquired-resistance to MTZ after induction of resistance in vitro.

Objective: Many clinical studies indicated that Helicobacter pylori (Hp) strains rarely acquired resistance to amoxicillin but easily to clarithromycin and metronidazole. However, it was unclear whether the antibiotic resistance of Hp strains was induced or passively selected during long-term or frequent treatment with metronidazole, clarithromycin and amoxicillin. To compare the propensity of acquired resistance to antibiotics, Hp strains were exposed to amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole in vitro in this study.
