Aims And Methods: This study aims to explore perceptions of eating disorder service strengths and to develop a clearer picture of improvements clinicians would like to see occur in the services they lead. A survey designed by the Royal College of Psychiatrists' Section of Eating Disorders was completed by 83 lead clinicians in both public and private sector services in the UK and Eire. Content analysis was performed, and common themes were identified.
Results: Five main strengths of a service were identified as follows: quality of treatment (n = 36), staff skills (n = 21), continuity of care (n = 15), family involvement (n = 12) and accessibility and availability (n = 11). These themes also arose when clinicians evaluated areas they wished to develop and improve.
Conclusions: Service providers' views were congruent with each other, NICE guidelines and quality standards as proposed by the Royal College. Although clinicians feel that their service fulfils many practice guidelines, there remains areas in which adherence is felt to be lacking.

Background: The Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE) aims to re-establish bile flow in biliary atresia (BA); however, BA remains the commonest indication for liver transplantation in pediatrics. Gut microbiota-host interplay is increasingly associated with outcomes in chronic liver disease. This study characterized fecal microbiota and fatty acid metabolites in BA.

The haematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) score predicts transplant survival in non-malignant diseases, including IEIs. We hypothesised that immune dysregulation pre-transplant may also influence transplant outcomes.

Introduction: Vasa previa (VP) is a serious pregnancy complication in which fetal vessels, unprotected by the umbilical cord, run across or within close proximity to the internal cervical os, which can potentially result in fetal exsanguination in the event of membrane rupture. There is global consensus that women with antenatally diagnosed VP should have caesarean delivery prior to onset of labour to prevent the catastrophic complications of VP. However, there is variability in the approach to management of these women antenatally, particularly regarding hospitalisation and timing of steroid administration and delivery.
