Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted on children under 2 years old who were hospitalized for severe lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) to see if a community intervention program could reduce ongoing respiratory issues after discharge.
- The intervention involved three monthly clinics providing antibiotics for wet cough and addressing other health concerns, while the control group received standard care without additional support.
- After 24 months, results showed no significant differences in respiratory symptoms or health outcomes between the two groups, indicating the intervention might not have effectively improved conditions for these at-risk children.
Background: Comprehensive and accurate evaluation is a critical step in the return-to-work process for individuals with head injury. Research findings have been reported on the barriers for a successful return to work. Assessment frameworks have been published, but they do not include a protocol that contains each component for the assessment.

Design And Patients: We conducted a prospective, observational study to determine intra- and inter-observer reproducibility of the sonographic measurement of femoral anteversion in infants. The method involves imaging of the proximal femur using a vertical transducer with the infant in the lateral position.
