Urinary tract infections among under-five children with congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract in hospitalized patients in Addis Ababa.
BMC Pediatr
December 2024
School of Nursing and Midwifery, College of Health Sciences, Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Background: Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) and urinary tract infections (UTIs) are significant clinical concerns in children. Children who have UTIs are also at risk of developing long-term complications, notably kidney disease and scarring UTIs. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of urinary tract infection and its determinants among under-five children with congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract in Addis Ababa.

Article Synopsis
- - The bursa of Fabricius (BF) is a crucial organ in birds for B-cell development, arising from the cloaca during embryonic growth.
- - Researchers found that specific precursors for B cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells migrate to the BF, with a new cell type, EIV-E12+, playing a key role in initiating the formation of lymphoid follicles.
- - Experiments with chick-duck and chick-quail combinations indicate that EIV-E12+ cells act as transient inducers for lymphoid follicle formation, but they aren't direct precursors of B or dendritic cells.
Introducing Cloacagram in Israel: Advancing Anatomical Assessment and Surgical Planning for Cloacal Malformations.

Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Surgery, Schneider Children's Medical Center, Petah Tikva, Israel, Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Article Synopsis
- Cloacal malformation is a rare and complex condition in females, where urinary, gynecological, and intestinal systems merge, and 3D CT cloacagram has become a crucial tool for assessing this condition before surgery.
- A study evaluated the effectiveness of 3D CT cloacagram in analyzing six patients, gathering data on common channel and urethral lengths, and surgical approaches used.
- The findings demonstrated that 3D CT cloacagram allows for accurate measurements that are vital for developing surgical strategies, significantly enhancing surgical planning from colorectal, gynecological, and urological viewpoints.
The development of the external genitals in female human embryos and foetuses. Part 2: Vaginal vestibule, anal canal, perineal raphe and perineal cutaneous muscles.

Concomitant with the rupture of the cloacal membrane, the perineal skin epithelium thickens (see accompanying article). In this study, we establish in female embryos and foetuses that the thick skin area divides into ventral and dorsal areas at ~14 weeks and gradually becomes restricted to the vaginal vestibule and anal canal thereafter. The dense mesenchymal core of the labia minora, which forms at ~8 weeks, extends dorsally to the anal canal as a midline reinforcement.

September 2024
Unit of Veterinary Anatomy and Embryology, Department of Anatomy, Animal Production and Clinical Veterinary Sciences, Faculty of Veterinary Sciences, Terra Campus, University of Santiago de Compostela, 27002 Lugo, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- - The study examines the genital anatomy of seven male sugar gliders and one castrated individual, focusing on the scrotum, testes, and associated structures.
- - Key findings include descriptions of the penis, which is bifid and externalizes through the cloaca, and the absence of the deferent duct's ampulla, as well as details about the prostate and bulbourethral glands.
- - The research highlights the unique positioning and structural features of the reproductive organs, contributing valuable insights into the biology of sugar gliders.
