Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the associations among seizures, clinical characteristics, and brain injury on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in infants with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE), and to determine whether these findings can predict unfavorable neurodevelopmental outcomes.
Method: Clinical and electrographic seizures were assessed by amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram, and the extent of brain injury was evaluated by using MRI. At 12‒24 months of age, developmental impairment or death was assessed.

Objectives: Data describing hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA) outcomes predominantly originate from patients involved in wilderness accidents. We describe the incidence and outcomes of HCA in an urban environment, with a subgroup analysis of patients with witnessed HCA in the prehospital or emergency department (ED) setting.
Methods: We completed a retrospective, single center cohort analysis of consecutive adult patients with environmental exposure and core body temperature ≤ 32 °C.

Objectives: This study investigates the impact of bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) time on outcomes in aortic arch surgery.
Methods: In total, 961 patients underwent either hemiarch (n = 385) or total arch replacement (n = 576) with bilateral ACP and moderate hypothermia management between 2006 and 2020 across 2 aortic centres. ACP time was categorized into 4 groups (≤30 min: n = 169, 30-60 min: n = 298, 60-90 min: n = 261, >90 min: n = 233).

Background: Peripartum asphyxia affects three to five per 1000 live births, with moderate or severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) occurring in 0.5 to 1 per 1000 live births, and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Therapeutic hypothermia is an effective treatment, but alternative therapies such as acupuncture are also used.

Perinatal asphyxia is a major cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, often resulting in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) with long-term neurodevelopmental impairments. While therapeutic hypothermia has emerged as a promising intervention to reduce brain damage, its specific impact on key brain structures and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes remains underexplored. This study aims to evaluate the effects of therapeutic hypothermia on brain volumetry, cortical thickness, and neurodevelopment in term neonates with perinatal asphyxia.
