Inflammatory and Hematologic Liver and Platelet (HALP) Scores in Hypothermia-Treated Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE).

Objective: This study examined systemic inflammatory indices and "Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, Platelet (HALP) scores" in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE).

Methods: A total of 43 neonates with moderate-to-severe HIE at 36 weeks' gestation were assessed. Systemic inflammatory markers were measured before HT commenced within 0-6 h after birth and between 60 and 72 h during and after therapy or before adjusting for hypothermia.

Can We Estimate Late-Onset Sepsis by Serial Methemoglobin Levels? An Observational Study in Preterm Neonates.

To assess serial methemoglobin (MetHb) levels in preterm infants as a possible diagnostic method for late-onset sepsis (LOS). Preterm infants were assigned into two groups: those with culture-proven LOS and controls. Serial MetHb levels were measured.

The unilateral hemispatial neglect phenomenon in right hemiplegia.

One of the most important perceptual function disorders following a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is the unilateral hemispatial neglect phenomenon (UHNP). In this case report, we present a 73-year-old male patient with UHNP accompanying right hemiplegia, which was identified with detailed examination. Clinical picture was characterized by right-sided hemiparesis in the upper right shoulder and relative weakness in the right leg.

Fibrous dysplasia and McCune-Albright syndrome: A case report with review of literature on the rehabilitation approach.

McCune-Albright syndrome is classically defined by the clinical triad of fibrous dysplasia (FD) of the bone, café-au-lait macules, and endocrinopathies. We report the case of a 15-year-old male with a diagnosed with McCune Albright syndrome. McCune-Albright syndrome remains a diagnostic challenge, and delayed diagnosis may have significant consequences.
