Vulvovaginal enterobiasis is underreported and an often-missed diagnosis in prepubertal girls presenting with isolated nocturnal vulvar pruritus. An 8-year-old-girl with intense nocturnal vulvar itching for 4 months was diagnosed with enterobiasis after microscopy of a vaginal swab revealed Enterobius vermicularis (pinworm) ova. The child and her family were treated with two doses of oral albendazole, 2 weeks apart, resulting in symptom resolution.

Accordingly, we retrospectively analyzed data of a large sample of patients to study the spectrum of esophageal motility disorders in relation to age, and to evaluate the clinical profile and high-resolution manometry parameters and achalasia subtypes according to Chicago IV criteria.
Methods: Of 909 patients evaluated by high-resolution water perfusion or solid-state manometry during a 3-year period, data on 801 were finally analyzed.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to determine the effects of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) on sleep using polysomnography, focusing on various sleep parameters across two nights in a controlled environment.
- - Results showed that ABPM significantly increased N2 sleep duration but did not negatively impact overall sleep quality, as participants did not find the ABPM night worse than the control night.
- - Additionally, there were no significant differences in total sleep time, sleep latency, or other sleep parameters, indicating that ABPM can be used without major concerns about disrupting sleep.
Baclofen is a common muscle relaxant agent used in a number of neurological disorders acting at central level and potentially causing adverse respiratory events, still largely unknown at therapeutic doses. We present the case of a young woman with spastic tetraparesis secondary to perinatal asphyxia treated with a standard dose of intrathecal baclofen who developed nocturnal symptoms, somnolence and memory loss during the day. Nocturnal cardio-respiratory sleep monitoring showed a high number of central sleep apneas (CSA).

The molecular composition of organic aerosols in ambient PM was investigated at the northern foothills of Qinling Mountain region in central China during the summer of 2022. The molecular characteristics of organic matter were analyzed using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometry. The number of molecular formula assignments was dominated by organosulfur species (OrgS, on average 28-47% in total).
