Article Synopsis
- Bronchiolitis is a major reason infants are hospitalized in their first year and is more common in babies born to mothers with asthma.
- The study analyzed cord blood granulocytes (eosinophils and neutrophils) from 89 infants, examining their relationship to bronchiolitis hospitalization over the first year.
- Results showed higher eosinophil levels in cord blood were linked to increased risk of bronchiolitis hospitalization, indicating that early immune cell profiles may affect vulnerability to this condition later on.

Problem: Globally medical management of labour and birth has significantly increased, with epidurals attributed to the cascade of interventions.
Background: There are few randomised control trials that evaluate the effectiveness of antenatal education programs. A previous trial at two Australian hospitals found an antenatal program of integrative complementary therapies significantly reduced rates of interventions for low-risk primiparous women.
Alexander Friedenstein, Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Shifting Paradigms and Euphemisms.

Six decades ago, Friedenstein and coworkers published a series of seminal papers identifying a cell population in bone marrow with osteogenic potential, now referred to as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This work was also instrumental in establishing the identity of hematopoietic stem cell and the identification of skeletal stem/progenitor cell (SSPC) populations in various skeletal compartments. In recognition of the centenary year of Friedenstein's birth, I review key aspects of his work and discuss the evolving concept of the MSC and its various euphemisms indorsed by changing paradigms in the field.

On the centenary of the birth of Franco Basaglia - Italian psychiatrist and neurologist - it is incumbent upon us to question the ways in which Basaglia can critically illuminate or help us interpret the social uncertainty in which we are living. Many important contributions have enriched our knowledge of Basaglia's work in recent months. He was a modern practical intellectual, in the Gramscian sense, where the authentic intellectual moves from the real needs of the masses and seeks their solution from the given historical situation, recomposing it in the more general course of the world.

On the centenary of Basaglia's birth, we must reason on the state of social and health care not only in the field of mental health. In fact, the rights of women seeking for abortion, the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community, the prison population, and migrants are also on the take.
