Author Affiliations:Duke University School of Nursing, Durham (Ms Adeku, Mrs Defore, Dr Newberry, and Ms Yates); University of North Carolina Neonatology, Chapel Hill (Dr Newberry); and Duke University Neonatology, Durham, North Carolina (Ms Yates).
Background: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a prevalent chronic lung disease affecting premature infants, leading to long-term respiratory complications, hospital readmissions, and significant financial burden on families and the health care system. BPD is caused by lung injury, making it crucial to focus on methods to minimize lung injury and prevent the transition from respiratory distress syndrome to BPD by following evidence-based respiratory support strategies.
Purpose: This scoping review examines methods for weaning preterm infants off continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and evaluates their effectiveness in maintaining respiratory independence.

Background: Motoric Cognitive Risk (MCR) syndrome is a predementia syndrome characterized by slow gait and subjective cognitive concerns. Individuals with MCR are at high risk of transitioning to both Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia. With chronological age, the incidence of MCR increases and MCR cases exhibit a higher prevalence of age-associated diseases.

In glomerulopathies, endothelial dysfunction and the presence of histological vascular lesions such as thrombotic microangiopathy, arteriolar hyalinosis, and arteriosclerosis are related to a severe clinical course and worse renal prognosis. The endothelial cell, which naturally has anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic regulatory mechanisms, is particularly susceptible to damage caused by various etiologies and can become dysfunctional due to direct/indirect injury or a deficiency of protective factors. In addition, endothelial regulation and protection involve participation of the complement system, factors related to angiogenesis, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), endothelin, the glycocalyx, the coagulation cascade, interaction between these pathways, interactions between glomerular structures (the endothelium, mesangium, podocyte, and basement membrane) and interstitial structures (tubules, arterioles and small vessels).

Department of Public Health, Woldia University, Woldia, Ethiopia.
Background: Despite advancements in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) treatment and care, undernutrition remains a significant concern, accelerating disease progression and risk of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-related deaths. The nutritional status of second-line antiretroviral treatment (SLART) users in Ethiopia has not been thoroughly investigated. So, this study aimed to assess the nutritional status of HIV/AIDS patients who were on SLART and its associated factors in Northern Ethiopia.
