Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a major infectious complication in solid-organ transplant recipients, particularly in the context of pediatric liver transplantation. CMV serostatus is a well-established risk factor for postoperative CMV infection, with CMV seronegative recipients who receive organs from seropositive donors (D+/R-) being at the highest risk. Our previous research indicated a higher incidence of CMV infection in recipients with inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) compared with those with biliary atresia (BA).

Introduction: Graft-versus-host disease is a serious complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and is a major cause of death post-transplantation. Approximately 50% of acute graft-versus-host disease patients do not respond to systemic steroids and their prognosis is poor regardless of the treatment. This study describes our experience with pediatric patients diagnosed with steroid-refractory graft-versus-host disease who received intra-mesenteric steroid treatment.

Department of Anesthesiology, Ondokuz Mayis University, School of Medicine, Kurupelit, Samsun, Turkey, TR55139.
Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) causes significant postoperative pain, necessitating effective multimodal analgesia strategies. This study evaluated the efficacy of the external oblique intercostal block (EOIB) in this context.
Methods: This prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind study conducted between April and December 2023 included 60 patients who underwent LSG.
Investigating the preventive effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in rats.

Department of Spine and Spinal Cord Surgery, Henan Provincial People's Hospital, People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University, People's Hospital of Henan University, No. 7 Weiwu Road, Jinshui District, Zhengzhou, 450003, Henan, China.
The use of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) has demonstrated effectiveness in the management of femoral head osteonecrosis as well as nonunion fractures; however, the effects of PEMF on preventing glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) have not been extensively studied. The aim of this investigation was to explore the effectiveness of PEMF stimulation in averting GIOP in rats and uncover the potential fundamental mechanisms involved. A total of seventy-two adult male Wistar rats composed the experimental group and were subsequently assigned to three groups for treatment.

Chemotherapy is one of the main treatments for breast cancer patients. However, chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting can significantly reduce patients' quality of life and lead to electrolyte disturbance and metabolic imbalance in severe cases. Therefore, to identify the risk factors for nausea and vomiting during chemotherapy in these patients is very important.
