The aim of this 2 year longitudinal study was to explore whether children's individual differences in spontaneous focusing on numerosity (SFON) in kindergarten predict arithmetical and reading skills 2 years later in school. Moreover, we investigated whether the positive relationship between SFON and mathematical skills is explained by children's individual differences in spontaneous focusing on a non-numerical aspect. The participants were 139 Finnish-speaking children. The results show that SFON tendency in kindergarten is a significant domain-specific predictor of arithmetical skills, but not reading skills, assessed at the end of Grade 2. In addition, the relationship between SFON and number sequence skills in kindergarten is not explained by children's individual differences in their focusing on a non-numerical aspect that is, spatial locations.

Introduction: Cerebral oximetry measurement using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been highlighted as a technology that can provide noninvasive information on regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) during CPR even though its effectiveness has not been fully confirmed. The research focuses on the use of NIRS to predict the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and neurological outcomes.
Objectives: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the validity of using regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) measurement compared to ETCO2 during CPR to and its association with ROSC, as well as to evaluate the neuroprognostic value of NIRS.
A Novel Technique With Buttress Plating for Comminuted Base Fractures of the Proximal Phalanx.

Background: Extra-articular but severely comminuted distal basal fractures of the proximal phalanx (PP) are rarely reported. Therefore, the aim of this study was to achieve proper union and desirable outcomes using low-profile locking plates/screws. We introduced our own surgical approach and reported the clinical/radiographic outcomes via retrospective case series.

The inspirations from nature always enlighten us to develop advanced science and technology. To survive in complicated and harsh environments, plants and animals have evolved remarkable capabilities to control fluid transfer sophisticated designs such as wettability contrast, oriented micro-/nano-structures, and geometry gradients. Based on the bioinspired structures, the on-surface fluid manipulation exhibits spontaneous, continuous, smart, and integrated performances, which can promote the applications in the fields of heat transfer, microfluidics, heterogeneous catalysis, water harvesting, Although fluid manipulating interfaces (FMIs) have provided plenty of ideas to optimize the current systems, a comprehensive review of history, classification, fabrication, and integration focusing on their interfacial chemistry and asymmetric structure is highly required.

A six-year-old boy presented to the pediatric emergency department following an accidental ingestion of a synthetic cannabinoid. The child ingested an edible product containing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and presented with lethargy, altered mental status, and increased muscle tone. The airway was protected, and the patient was breathing spontaneously.

Background: Accumulating evidence suggests that spontaneous preterm labor is a syndrome caused by multiple pathological processes. The breakdown of maternal-fetal tolerance has been proposed as a key mechanism of idiopathic spontaneous preterm labor, often viewed as a chronic inflammatory process resulting from the maternal immune system's impaired tolerance of the fetus from early pregnancy. Regulatory T cells are crucial for maintaining maternal-fetal tolerance.
