Adenovirus Pneumonitis and Disseminated Viremia in a Neonate Successfully Treated With Steroids, Cidofovir and Ecmo.
Pediatr Infect Dis J

From the Department of Clinical Microbiology, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, Leicester, United Kingdom.
A 5-day-old neonate was admitted with chest radiograph showing right-lung opacification. This, together with a severe adenovirus (AdV) viremia (11.8 million copies/mL), indicated severe adenovirus pneumonitis.

Introduction: Although it is primarily a pulmonary disease, extra-pulmonary TB has been reported in 15 % of TB patients and it can affect any body system including the pleura. Pleural tuberculosis can result into empyema thoracis which can further complicate if left untreated to empyema necessitans. This requires high index of suspicious for prompt medical and surgical management.

Lung disease analysis in chest X-rays (CXR) using deep learning presents significant challenges due to the wide variation in lung appearance caused by disease progression and differing X-ray settings. While deep learning models have shown remarkable success in segmenting lungs from CXR images with normal or mildly abnormal findings, their performance declines when faced with complex structures, such as pulmonary opacifications. In this study, we propose AMRU++, an attention-based multi-residual UNet++ network designed for robust and accurate lung segmentation in CXR images with both normal and severe abnormalities.

Article Synopsis
- The study introduced a new method called lung field-based severity score (LFSS) to assess the severity of COVID-19 in patients, evaluating its clinical utility and feasibility.
- The research analyzed data from 794 COVID-19 patients, focusing on lung opacification on CT scans and comparing LFSS with other clinical characteristics and total pneumonia burden.
- Results showed significant differences between non-critical and critical groups, with LFSS correlating strongly with total pneumonia burden, suggesting LFSS could be a valuable tool for identifying patients at risk of worsening conditions.
Early Congenital Syphilis Presenting With Severe Congenital Pneumonia and Cutaneous Manifestations in a Neonate at Birth: A Case Report.

Transplacental transmission of spirochetes from an infected mother to the fetus during pregnancy results in the infectious condition known as congenital syphilis (CS). Once a forgotten disease, CS has now re-emerged. We report the clinical case of an early CS in a neonate girl presented with severe congenital pneumonia (pneumonia alba) requiring intubation, along with skin lesions that were visible from birth on the palms and soles of the feet.
