Discrimination of nucleoside phosphates using principal component analysis of spectral changes in a single europium complex.

Here we present the first use of principal component analysis of the full spectrum of a single europium complex to differentiate between structurally-similar analytes. We demonstrate that it can be used to distinguish between the nucleoside phosphate guests AMP, ADP, and ATP.

Neonatal Cutaneous Vascular Anomalies.

Vascular anomalies are broadly classified into 2 categories: vascular tumors and vascular malformations. Vascular anomalies frequently present as cutaneous lesions in infants. This review summarizes vascular anomalies that most commonly present as dermatologic lesions in the neonatal period, with a focus on the clinical findings, pathophysiology and histology, relevant radiographic findings, and management of common vascular anomalies such as infantile hemangiomas, congenital hemangiomas, and Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma, along with vascular malformations, including capillary, lymphatic, venous, and arteriovenous malformations.

Neighborhood Disadvantage and Injury Mechanism, Severity, and Outcomes in Pediatric Trauma.

Background: Traumatic injuries remain the leading cause of death in children aged 1-14. Previous research demonstrates a link between lower socioeconomic status (SES) and higher pediatric injury morbidity and mortality. There is scant research exploring the relationship between neighborhood disadvantage and pediatric trauma.

Nutrition support practices in the intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Ghana.

Background: Nutrition support is recognised as an important therapy for attenuating the catabolic effects of critical illnesses, including malnutrition prevention. However, variations in nutrition support practices make it difficult to achieve optimal outcomes in the intensive care unit (ICU).

Objectives: To explore current nutrition support practices among healthcare professionals (doctors and nurses) in the ICU of a tertiary hospital in Ghana.
