Neurological Manifestation of Neonatal Acute Kidney Injury: Focusing on the Clinico-Radiological Profile.

Purpose This study aimed at studying the neurological manifestation of neonatal acute kidney injury, focusing on the clinico-radiological profile. Methodology In this cross-sectional study, newborns hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary care hospital were enrolled over a study period of one year. As per the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO) criteria, 74 neonates were enrolled, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed on the same neonates.

Hippocampal Volume in Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Speech and Language Delay.

Introduction: Hippocampus is a complex brain structure located deep in the temporal lobes of the brain. The structure has been implicated in several disorders related to cognition. Reports are emerging of its involvement in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

A Comparison of Occlusal Schemes with Condylar Inclination and Anterior Guidance in Dentate Individuals.

Purpose: To compare occlusal schemes with condylar inclination and anterior guidance in dentate individuals.

Materials And Methods: A total of 26 dentate patients of Indian origin between the ages of 18 and 30 with canine-guided occlusion and 26 patients with group function occlusion were included in the study. The School of Articulator Munich (SAM) Axioquick system was used to assess the condylar guidance and eccentric tracings of the patients.

Heterostructure axial GaAsSb ensemble near-infrared p-i-n based axial configured nanowire photodetectors.

In this work, we present a systematic design of growth experiments and subsequent characterization of self-catalyzed molecular beam epitaxially grown GaAsSb heterostructure axial p-i-n nanowires (NWs) on p-Si <111> for the ensemble photodetector (PD) application in the near-infrared region. Diverse growth methods have been explored to gain a better insight into mitigating several growth challenges by systematically studying their impact on the NW electrical and optical properties to realize a high-quality p-i-n heterostructure. The successful growth approaches are Te-dopant compensation to suppress the p-type nature of intrinsic GaAsSb segment, growth interruption for strain relaxation at the interface, decreased substrate temperature to enhance supersaturation and minimize the reservoir effect, higher bandgap compositions of the n-segment of the heterostructure relative to the intrinsic region for boosting the absorption, and the high-temperature ultra-high vacuumannealing to reduce the parasitic radial overgrowth.

Diagnosis of Pediatric Stroke in Resource Limited Settings.

Global awareness of stroke as a significant cause of neurologic sequelae and death in children has increased over the years as more data in this field becomes available. However, most published literature on pediatric stroke have limited geographic representation. Data on childhood stroke from developing countries remains limited.
