Atmospheric aerosol measurements from the ATSR-SLSTR series of dual-view satellite instruments 1995-2022.

A data record, spanning 24 years, is presented of global atmospheric total aerosol optical depth and also the aerosol optical depth due to fine-mode constituents, typically of anthropogenic origin. Original measurements of reflectance were provided at approximately 1-km resolution by a series of dual-view satellite instruments: the Along-Track Scanning Radiometer 2 (ATSR-2), Advanced Along-Track Scanning Radiometer (AATSR), and Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometers (SLSTRs). These were processed to retrieve aerosol properties at 10-km resolution and then collated over daily and monthly timescales on a 1° × 1° latitude-longitude grid.

Pediatric Solitary Epithelioid Histiocytoma of the Face.

Background: Solitary epithelioid histiocytoma, also known as reticulohistiocytoma, is a rare benign histiocytic proliferation with an unreported incidence that commonly presents as a superficial nodule involving the trunk and extremities of adults. Pathology shows dermal histiocytic infiltration composed of large, eosinophilic histiocytes with "glassy" cytoplasm and oncocytic macrophages. When presenting as part of a systemic disorder, it is called multicentric reticulohistiocytosis, a rare and more aggressive condition characterized by multiple skin and mucosal lesions and arthritis.

RSV in Young Children During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic-Implications for Delaying the Age of First Infection.

Nonpharmaceutical interventions introduced in the United Kingdom's response to the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the transmission of other childhood infections. We report changes in seasonality, age dynamics and severity of respiratory syncytial virus infections between 2019 and 2023. These data show the potential effects of delaying respiratory syncytial virus exposure and may provide insights for the implementation of treatments preventing infection during early infancy.

Rare Congenital Upper Lip Pit.

Congenital lip pits are characterized by sinuses or fistulas in the lips that can occur in isolation or as part of a genetic disorder. A 6-year-old girl with a right upper lip lesion present at birth presented with recurrent swelling and occasional erythema. Examination revealed a mildly swollen punctum at the right upper wet/dry vermillion with expressible serous drainage.
