Article Synopsis
- Maternal nutrition during pregnancy significantly affects both mothers and their babies, influencing health outcomes and the risk of diseases later in life.
- A study compared nutrient and polyphenol intakes between pregnant women aged 35 and older (AMA) and younger controls, revealing lower intakes of certain key nutrients in the AMA group.
- The findings showed negative correlations between specific nutrients, particularly fiber and vitamins A and E, and newborn head circumference, suggesting that improving nutrition in older pregnant women could enhance neonatal health.
When urban agriculture is addressed at a family scale, known as urban gardening, it is assumed as a non-commercial activity where some family members voluntarily take care of the plantation during their free time. If technology is going to be used to support such a process, then the solutions should consider the particularities of these gardeners (e.g.

- This study examines the use of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) for restaging non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after initial treatment, validated by a separate procedure called video-assisted mediastinoscopic lymphadenectomy (VAMLA).* -
- A retrospective analysis of patients showed that EBUS-TBNA has a moderate sensitivity (63.1%) but excellent specificity (100%) for identifying mediastinal disease, while VAMLA confirmed a 100% accuracy when follow-up was needed after a negative EBUS-TBNA result.* -
- The findings suggest EBUS-TBNA should be the first choice for invasive rest
Article Synopsis
- Ganser syndrome is a rare disorder marked by giving almost correct answers to questions, hallucinations, and altered consciousness, often linked to functional neurological symptoms.
- A case study highlights a 53-year-old man who showed these symptoms after sudden left-sided weakness, following a police report of indecent exposure.
- His inconsistent mental status during evaluation suggested he was aware of his thoughts, and previous hospitalization records support that fear of legal consequences triggered his Ganser syndrome symptoms.
Background: Although genetic variants in are the most frequent cause of pediatric genetic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), there are no studies available describing this entity. We sought to describe clinical features, analyze variant location, and explore predictors of bad prognosis in pediatric -related DCM.
Methods And Results: We evaluated clinical records from 44 patients (24 men; median age at diagnosis, 0.
