Article Synopsis
  • This study assessed Oral Health Behaviour (OHB) in 2-year-old children using a questionnaire, focusing on factors like health, socioeconomic status, and psychosocial elements.
  • The research included 730 participants and found that overall OHB was good, with a significant percentage eating fruits/vegetables, brushing regularly, and having dental check-ups.
  • Results indicated that single-parent households and parents with mental health issues were linked to lower OHB scores, highlighting the importance of social support and parental health in promoting better oral health habits in children.*

Background: Baseline lung allograft dysfunction (BLAD) is characterized by the failure to achieve normal baseline lung function after double lung transplantation (DLTX) and is associated with a high risk of mortality. In single lung transplant (SLTX) recipients, however, cutoff values and associated factors have not been explored. Here, we aimed to define BLAD in SLTX recipients, investigate its impact on allograft survival, and identify potential risk factors for BLAD in SLTX recipients.

Background: While positive impacts of recovery capital and social capital in facilitating substance use disorder (SUD) recovery is increasingly documented, research has shown that low-income and marginalized individuals have lower social capital and may rely on different networks. A more comprehensive approach is needed to understand the social capital of low-income individuals with SUD and how these relationships impact their treatment and recovery.

Methods: Qualitative data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and analyzed employing thematic analysis.

Objectives: Cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with high mortality. Patients treated for CS mostly require heparin therapy, which may be associated with complications such as heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). HIT represents a serious condition associated with platelet decline and increased hypercoagulability and remains a poorly researched field in intensive care medicine.
