Catheter-related internal jugular vein thrombosis in neonates and long-term consequences: a prospective cohort study.

Background: The incidence of central venous catheter-related thrombosis and the long-term effects of thrombosis on catheterized veins in neonates is unknown. We therefore determined the incidence of central venous thrombosis, identified associated risk factors, and evaluated outcomes at 6 months.

Methods: We enrolled neonates aged less than 28 days scheduled for major intestinal or cardiac surgery whom we expected to require central venous catheters for at least 48 hours.

Combined effects of sleep timing and nighttime sleep duration on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Background: While short sleep duration is linked to higher risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the combined effects of sleep timing and sleep duration on NAFLD are less explored.

Methods: In this cross-sectional study of 39,471 participants from Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region of China, self-reported sleep information and ultrasonography-diagnosed NAFLD were obtained from Jan 2018 to Jan 2020. Sleep timing was categorized based on sleep midpoint: early-type (before 2:00 AM), intermediate-type (2:00-2:30 AM), and late-type (after 2:30 AM).
