Sympathetic nerve blocks for persistent pain in adults with inoperable abdominopelvic cancer.

Background: Persistent visceral pain is an unpleasant sensation coming from one or more organs within the body. Visceral pain is a common symptom in those with advanced cancer. Interventional procedures, such as neurolytic sympathetic nerve blocks, have been suggested as additional treatments that may play a part in optimising pain management for individuals with this condition.

Women utilisation, needs and satisfaction with postnatal follow-up care in Oman: A cross-sectional survey.

Background: In Oman, there is a lack of data on utilisation, needs and women's satisfaction with care and information provided during postnatal follow-up period.

Aim: To investigate postnatal follow-up care utilisation and women's needs; level of postnatal information received and satisfaction with services.

Methods: A purposive sample of women (n = 500), recruited in the immediate postnatal period at one metropolitan and one regional birthing hospital in Oman.

Clinical Practice Guideline Recommendations in Pediatric Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: A Systematic Review.

Study Objective: Our primary objectives were to identify clinical practice guideline recommendations for children with acute mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) presenting to an emergency department (ED), appraise their overall quality, and synthesize the quality of evidence and the strength of included recommendations.

Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central, Web of Science, and medical association websites from January 2012 to May 2023 for clinical practice guidelines with at least 1 recommendation targeting pediatric mTBI populations presenting to the ED within 48 hours of injury for any diagnostic or therapeutic intervention in the acute phase of care (ED and inhospital). Pairs of reviewers independently assessed overall clinical practice guideline quality using the Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation (AGREE) II tool.

Intratracheal budesonide mixed with surfactant to increase survival free of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in extremely preterm infants: statistical analysis plan for the international, multicenter, randomized PLUSS trial.

Background: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), an inflammatory-mediated chronic lung disease, is common in extremely preterm infants born before 28 weeks' gestation and is associated with an increased risk of adverse neurodevelopmental and respiratory outcomes in childhood. Effective and safe prophylactic therapies for BPD are urgently required. Systemic corticosteroids reduce rates of BPD in the short term but are associated with poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes if given to ventilated infants in the first week after birth.

Women's Views on Factors that Influence Utilisation of Postnatal Follow-Up in Oman: A descriptive, qualitative study.

Objectives: Postnatal follow-up care (PNFC) is critical for promoting maternal and newborn health and well-being. In Oman, women's utilisation of postnatal follow-up services has declined, with rates as low as 0.29 (mean visits) in some governorates, and fails to meet the recommendation of postnatal follow-up visits at two and six weeks for assessment of the mother and her newborn.

Partnering With Patients, Caregivers, and Clinicians to Determine Research Priorities for Concussion.

Importance: Identifying research priorities of patients with concussion, their caregivers, and their clinicians is important to ensure future concussion research reflects the needs of those who will benefit from the research.

Objective: To prioritize concussion research questions from the perspectives of patients, caregivers, and clinicians.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional survey study used the standardized James Lind Alliance priority-setting partnership methods (2 online cross-sectional surveys and 1 virtual consensus workshop using modified Delphi and nominal group techniques).

Closing the Loop: The Value of Outcome Letters for Prehospital Pediatric Care.

Objectives: Providing emergency care to acutely ill or injured children is stressful and requires a high level of training. Paramedics who provide prehospital care are typically not involved in the circle of care and do not receive patient outcome information. The aim of this quality improvement project was to assess paramedics' perceptions of standardized outcome letters pertaining to acute pediatric patients that they had treated and transported to an emergency department.

Intratracheal budesonide mixed with surfactant to increase survival free of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in extremely preterm infants: study protocol for the international, multicenter, randomized PLUSS trial.

Background: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), an inflammatory-mediated chronic lung disease, is common in extremely preterm infants born before 28 weeks' gestation and is associated with an increased risk of adverse neurodevelopmental and respiratory outcomes in childhood. Effective and safe prophylactic therapies for BPD are urgently required. Systemic corticosteroids reduce rates of BPD in the short-term but are associated with poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes if given to ventilated infants in the first week after birth.

Community-Based Hospitals Benefit From Restrictive Transfusion Practices.

Blood availability was uncertain during the COVID-19 pandemic, yet transfusion remained a common and sometimes necessary procedure. Substantial work on optimizing transfusion practices is centered in tertiary hospitals as high utilizers of blood while the care delivered in smaller community hospitals comprises more than half the nation's transfusions. Improving transfusion practices in community hospitals represents a substantial opportunity to enhance patient safety and the availability of blood resources.

Impact of SERPINC1 mutation on thrombotic phenotype in children with congenital antithrombin deficiency-first analysis of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis pediatric antithrombin deficiency database and biorepository.

Background: The natural history and genotype-phenotype correlation of congenital antithrombin (AT) deficiency in children are unknown.

Objectives: To describe the clinical presentation of congenital AT deficiency in children and evaluate its correlation to specific mutations in SERPINC1.

Methods: In 2017, a prospective pediatric database and DNA biorepository for congenital AT deficiency was established.

Healthcare Providers' Views of Information, Support, and Services Offered to Women in the Postnatal Follow-up Care Period in Oman: A Qualitative Study.

Background: Postnatal care is a component of the maternity care continuum, which is often under-valued and under-offered. The aim of this study was to explore healthcare providers' (HCPs) views about postnatal follow-up care (PNFC) offered to women in Oman.

Methods: This qualitative study was performed from May 2021 to January 2022; 29 individual participated in semi-structured telephone interviews with staff nurses (N=20), nurse/midwives (N=5), and doctors (N=4) from Khoula and Ibra hospitals and Al Amerat, Muttrah and Al Qabil health centers in Oman.

Comparative Protein Structural Network Analysis Reveals C-Terminal Tail Phosphorylation Structural Communication Fingerprint in -Associated Mutations in Autism and Cancer.

PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10) is a tightly regulated dual-specificity phosphatase and key regulator of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. PTEN phosphorylation at its carboxy-terminal tail (CTT) serine/threonine cluster negatively regulates its tumor suppressor function by inducing a stable, closed, and inactive conformation. Germline mutations predispose individuals to hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS), a rare inherited cancer syndrome and, intriguingly, one of the most common causes of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Women's Utilisation, Experiences and Satisfaction with Postnatal Follow-up Care: Systematic literature review.

Postnatal follow-up care is reported to be the 'underutilised' aspect of the maternity care continuum. This review explores women's utilisation of early and late postnatal follow-up and their experiences and satisfaction with it. Five online databases were searched for English or Arabic articles published between 2011 and 2021.

Structural and Dynamic Effects of PTEN C-Terminal Tail Phosphorylation.

The phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 () tumor suppressor gene encodes a tightly regulated dual-specificity phosphatase that serves as the master regulator of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling. The carboxy-terminal tail (CTT) is key to regulation and harbors multiple phosphorylation sites (Ser/Thr residues 380-385). CTT phosphorylation suppresses the phosphatase activity by inducing a stable, closed conformation.
