Whereas physiologic jaundice constitutes a common finding in neonates, a few cases present with cholestatic jaundice owing to various pathologic conditions, including extrahepatic biliary obstruction. We report the case of a 2-day-old female neonate presenting with neonatal cholestasis, nonbilious vomiting with pyloric obstruction, and multiple intestinal atresias. A pathognomonic clinicoradiologic triad is described, based on clinical data, plain abdominal x-ray, and ultrasound examination.

Background: Duodenal stump leakage is one of the most critical complications following gastrectomy surgery, with a high mortality rate. The present study aimed to establish a predictive model based on machine learning for forecasting the occurrence of duodenal stump leakage in patients who underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
Materials And Methods: The present study included the data of 4,070 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma who received laparoscopic gastrectomy.

Aim: To mine and analyze adverse drug events (ADEs) signals of azithromycin use in children in the real world to inform the safety assessment of azithromycin use in children.
Methods: ADE reports from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) involving children (0-17 years) with azithromycin as the primary suspected drug from 2004 to early 2024 were extracted. ADEs were categorized using MedDRA, and signal detection was conducted using Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR) and Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR).
