Poorer longitudinal growth among HIV exposed compared to unexposed infants in Kenya.
J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr
December 2024
Departments of Epidemiology and Anthropology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA.
Background: Most infants born to women living with HIV (WLH) are HIV-exposed but uninfected exposed infants have poorer growth than HIV-unexposed uninfected children. Few large studies have compared children who are exposed (CHEU) and unexposed (CHUU) in the era of dolutegravir (DTG)-based antiretroviral treatment (ART).
Setting: Longitudinal study of mother-infant CHEU and CHUU pairs in Nairobi and Western Kenya.
Odds of Metastatic Disease at Diagnosis of Primary Bone and Soft-Tissue Sarcomas of the Extremity and Pelvis Based on Preferred Language and Socioeconomic Factors.
J Am Acad Orthop Surg
December 2024
From the Vagelos College of Physicians of Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, NY (Garcia), and Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, NY (Tyler).
Introduction: The odds of metastatic disease at diagnosis of bone (BS) and soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) of the extremities and pelvis may vary among patients due to several factors. There is limited research comparing the rates of metastatic disease at diagnosis in patients from different demographic and socioeconomic backgrounds.
Methods: Patients with a primary BS or STS of the extremity or pelvis were identified using International Classification of Diseases codes.

Participants were a convenience sample of registered nurses, obstetric residents, family medicine residents, and attending obstetricians across five hospitals from December 2020 through June 2021.
Rapid Weight Gain After Pediatric Kidney Transplant and Development of Cardiometabolic Risk Factors Among Children Enrolled in the North American Pediatric Renal Trials and Collaborative Studies Cohort.
Pediatr Transplant
February 2025
Division of Nephrology, Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Introduction: Given the risks of cardiovascular disease among pediatric kidney transplant recipients, we evaluated whether there was an association between rapid weight gain (RWG) following kidney transplantation and the development of obesity and hypertension among children enrolled in the North American Pediatric Renal Trials and Collaborative Studies (NAPRTCS) registry.
Methods: This retrospective analysis of the NAPRTCS transplant cohort assessed for RWG in the first year post-transplant and evaluated for obesity and hypertension in children with and without RWG up to 5 years post-transplant. We evaluated three separate eras (1986-1999, 2000-2009, and 2010-2021).
