We aimed to determine the frequency of positive patch test reactions in pediatric patients with plantar dermatitis. Children diagnosed as inflammatory dermatitis of the plantar foot were included. Demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were recorded, and patch testing was done using the European standard series antigens. Seventeen patients (9 females, 8 males) were included in the study. Ages of the patients ranged from 4-13 years, and the median age was 7.0. Seven patients had one to three positive reactions, seven had all negative reactions, one showed angry back syndrome, and results of two could not be assessed. Dermatitis of the feet is not rare in pediatric patients, and a significant percentage of these patients will be diagnosed as allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) if detailed and appropriate patch testing is done.

Study Objectives: Evaluate the performance of the SANSA device to simultaneously assess obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cardiac arrhythmias.
Methods: Participants suspected or known to have OSA underwent polysomnography (PSG) while wearing SANSA. SANSA's algorithm was trained using 86 records and tested on 67 to evaluate training bias.

Introduction: A main feature of CDH is lung hypoplasia and the related presentation of pulmonary hypertension and cardiac dysfunction. Multiple factors influence pulmonary status after CDH: degree of hypoplasia, ventilator-induced injury, altered growth and development of pulmonary structures, reduced diaphragm function and chest wall abnormalities. The evolution of pulmonary sequela in this population is still unclear.

Spontaneous ureteral rupture is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain, particularly unusual during pregnancy or the post-partum period. While pregnancy-related changes like ureteral compression and dilation may play a role, no definitive mechanisms have been established. Clinicians should suspect ureteric injury in post-partum patients with free pelvic fluid.

Background: To perform an analysis of intraoperative costs associated with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) acellular dermal allograft patch augmentation and interposition.
Methods: This was a matched cohort retrospective cost identification analysis. We identified patients who underwent arthroscopic RCR with acellular dermal allograft patch augmentation or interposition between 2014 and 2023 at a single academic center.
Electrophysiological characterization of human KCNT1 channel modulators and the therapeutic potential of hydroquinine and tipepidine in KCNT1 mutation-associated epilepsy mouse model.

Patients suffering epilepsy caused by the gain-of-function mutants of the hKCNT1 potassium channels are drug refractory. In this study, we cloned a novel human KCNT1B channel isoform using the brain cDNA library and conducted patch-clamp and molecular docking analyses to characterize the pharmacological properties of the hKCNT1B channel using thirteen drugs. Among cinchona alkaloids, we found that hydroquinine exerted the strongest blocking effect on the hKCNT1B channel, especially the F313L mutant.
