Purpose: To determine changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and bone metabolism-related biomarkers among Thai adolescents with perinatally acquired HIV infection (PHIVA) at 3 years following completion of vitamin D and calcium (VitD/Cal) supplementation.
Methods: An observational follow-up study was conducted among PHIVA who received 48-week VitD/Cal supplementation (either high-dose [3,200 IU/1,200 mg daily] or standard-dose [400 IU/1,200 mg daily]). Lumbar spine BMD (LSBMD) was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry.
Seroepidemiological study of Japanese encephalitis virus in Chiang Mai: Immunity and susceptibility 28 years after introduction of a vaccination programme.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis
August 2022
Article Synopsis
- - Thailand has been vaccinating against Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) since the 1990s, prompting a seroepidemiological study to assess immunity and susceptibility in a JEV-endemic area after 28 years of vaccination efforts.
- - The study involved 873 participants from various age groups (adolescents, adults, and older adults) across different districts in Chiang Mai, utilizing blood tests to measure their immunity levels against JEV.
- - Results showed varying seroprotection rates: 61% for adolescents, 43% for adults, and 52% for older adults, with factors like living in peri-urban areas and previous dengue virus infection influencing immunity, particularly among adolescents. *
Central-line associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) is a common healthcare-associated infection in patients indwelling central venous catheter (CVC). This study examined the incidence rates, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of CLABSI among neonates (aged < 1 month) and children (aged ≥ 1 month) admitted to a tertiary care university hospital. An overall CLABSI incidence rate was 3.

Background: To evaluate the impact of vitamin D and calcium supplementation (VitD/Ca) on lumbar spine bone mineral density (LSBMD) and bone metabolism among Thai adolescents with perinatally acquired HIV (PHIVA).
Methods: A multicenter, randomized, active-control, open-labeled trial was conducted. PHIVA (aged 10-20 years) who were on stable cART were enrolled.
Background: Delirium in traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common, may be predictable, and has a multifaceted symptom complex. This study aimed to examine: 1) the sum score of Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and if its component scores could predict delirium in TBI patients, and 2) the prominent symptoms and their courses over the first days after TBI.
Methods: TBI patients were recruited from neurosurgical ward inpatients.
