Intermittent Fasting Ameliorates Age-Induced Morphological Changes in Aged Albino Rat Kidney via Autophagy Activation and Reduction of Apoptosis and Inflammation.

Aging is a biological process with gradual decrease of cell function. Kidneys are one of the organs with higher susceptibility to the development of age-dependent tissue damage. Intermittent fasting has several beneficial effects on age-related degenerative changes.

Correlation between Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia and Cerebral Palsy in Children: A Comprehensive Analysis Using the National Inpatient Sample Dataset.

: The existing literature lacks conclusive evidence regarding the relationship between bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and cerebral palsy (CP). This large epidemiological study aimed to explore the co-occurrence of BPD and CP among children. : This retrospective cohort analysis utilized the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) dataset from 2016 to 2019, investigating pediatric patients with BPD and CP diagnoses.

Factors associated with prolonged hospitalizations from odontogenic infections in children.

Objective: Oro-facial infections are common pathologies comprising a substantial health concern in the pediatric population. Incorrect or late treatment may lead to serious and possibly life-threatening complications. The aim of this study is to analyze variables associated with prolonged length of hospital stays (LOS) due to odontogenic infections in children.

Assessing the impact of a positive Biofire® FilmArray® Meningitis/Encephalitis Panel result on clinical management and outcomes.

A rapid and accurate diagnosis of meningitis/encephalitis (ME) is required for early and effective intervention or adjustment of empirical treatment. This study retrospectively analyzed 485 records of patients hospitalized at the Padeh Poriya Medical Center during 2016-2020, due to a suspicion of ME. Pathogen distribution in cerebrospinal fluid samples, as determined using the BioFire® FilmArray ME Panel (MEP), is presented, as well as comparison of demographic and clinical characteristics, clinical management and outcomes of MEP (105) vs MEP (380) patients.
