Craniofacial syndromes present with exorbitism and airway obstruction as a result of upper and middle facial hypoplasia. Classical subcranial Lefort III (LF III) or monobloc distraction osteogenesis (DO) using an external craniofacial device is used to treat these deformities. These procedures are done during mixed dentition, in most cases, advancing an abnormal face, to a more normal position.

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.
Diagnostic Value of the Color Doppler Ultrasound Standardized Semiquantitative Score Combined With Sound Touch Elastography in Liver Fibrosis in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

From the Functional Department, Leshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Leshan, China.
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of standardized semiquantitative scoring of color Doppler ultrasound combined with liver stiffness measurement (LSM) of sound touch elastography (STE) in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, providing a reference for the liver fibrosis diagnosis.
Methods: We performed ultrasound and STE on CHB patients, with liver biopsies as the benchmark. We compared the differences in ultrasound standardized semiquantitative scoring and LSM among patients with different stages of liver fibrosis, and evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of significant liver fibrosis using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the area under the ROC curve alone or in combination.
Trastuzumab-Pertuzumab Plus Eribulin or Taxane as First-Line Chemotherapy for Human Epidermal Growth Factor 2-Positive Locally Advanced/Metastatic Breast Cancer: The Randomized Noninferiority Phase III EMERALD Trial.

Department of Breast Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan.
Purpose: Trastuzumab-pertuzumab (HP) plus taxane is a current standard first-line therapy for recurrent or metastatic human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)+ breast cancer (BC). We investigated noninferiority of eribulin to a taxane when combined with dual HER2 blockade as first-line systemic treatment for locally advanced/metastatic HER2+ BC.
Methods: In the phase III EMERALD trial (target sample size, 480; ClinicalTrials.
Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing of Cell-Free DNA to Detect -Immunoglobulin Translocation and Epstein-Barr Virus DNA in Plasma of Burkitt Lymphoma Patients in East Africa.

University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom.
Purpose: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive Burkitt lymphoma (BL) affects children in sub-Saharan Africa, but diagnosis via tissue biopsy is challenging. We explored a liquid biopsy approach using targeted next-generation sequencing to detect the -immunoglobulin (-Ig) translocation and EBV DNA, assessing its potential for minimally invasive BL diagnosis.
Materials And Methods: The panel included targets for the characteristic -Ig translocation, mutations in intron 1 of , mutations in exon 2 of , and three EBV genes: EBV-encoded RNA (EBER)1, EBER2, and EBV nuclear antigen 2.
