Supraglottoplasty outcomes and peri-operative care in congenital laryngomalacia.

Objectives: This study aimed to identify factors predicting postoperative ICU admission, the need for orotracheal intubation (OTI), and the occurrence of supraglottic stenosis in children undergoing supraglottoplasty for laryngomalacia.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 31 children (Dear Reviewer, we would have greatly preferred to include a larger sample size. However, as you know, this type of management is rare, and we deliberately selected a 7-year period to ensure a minimum of 30 children while avoiding significant differences in management guidelines over time.

Everything feels just a little heavier, more wrought with implications, you know? - a mixed-methods study examining lifestyle behaviors, health, and well-being of pregnant and postpartum women during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background: While the striking impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health, heath care access and lifestyle behaviors, including perceived health, diet, physical activity, and sleep has been reported, few studies have examined these domains jointly among pregnant and postpartum people in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: This mixed methods study was conducted among a subset of participants (n = 22) in a cohort study in Austin, Texas, who were pregnant or had recently delivered when the outbreak occurred. Measures were from the early second trimester up to 6 months postpartum.

Hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction in congenital CMV infection: Could it be due to endolymphatic pressure anomaly? A preliminary study.

Objectives: To describe the inner ear sectors after an inner ear MRI protocol and search for the presence of endolymphatic pressure anomaly in patients presenting with a congenital CMV infection and audio-vestibular dysfunction.

Methods: A 3D FLAIR MRI sequence, 4 h after gadolinium injection, was performed in patients with sensory-neural hearing loss secondary to a congenital CMV infection in order to analyse the morphology of the endolymphatic space.

Results: Two patients presented with a unilateral SNHL and 4 patients a bilateral SNHL.

"I'm not a bad mother:" the experience of stigma among mothers with substance use disorder in the criminal justice system.

This study explores the impacts of stigma on the lives of pregnant and parenting women with substance use disorder (SUD) and justice involvement. We also uncover how some women were able to cope with adversity and take steps to develop resilience. To guide our research, we combined Bos and colleagues' stigma theory with Windle's concept of resilience.
