Background: In pediatric living-donor lobar lung transplantation, whether transplanting adult lobes could result in satisfactory long-term survival and respiratory functional outcomes during and after the growth period in pediatric patients remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term survival and functional prognosis after pediatric living-donor lobar lung transplantation and deceased-donor lung transplantation.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed clinical data of pediatric patients (age: ≤17 years) who underwent lung transplantation between March 2001 and December 2022 at three institutions in Japan.

Introduction: In this review, we evaluate the role of stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs) as a biomarker in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer, exploring the prognostic and predictive potential in various treatment settings.
Methods: Data from multiple clinical trials in the early and metastatic settings, focusing on TILs' correlation with pathologic complete response (pCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival across early and metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer were summarized. This review also discusses TILs' assessment methods, interobserver variability, and emerging technologies to assess TILs.

Women Birth
January 2025
National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit, Nuffield Department of Population Health, University of Oxford. Electronic address:
Background: For women at low risk of complications during labour and birth, in the United Kingdom, planned birth in a 'community' setting (at home or a freestanding midwifery unit) is generally safe, and intrapartum emergencies are uncommon. Limited exposure may affect midwives' experience of managing an emergency.
Aim: Identify and synthesise available evidence about midwives' experiences of managing intrapartum emergencies during labour in a community setting.

This review explores how climate change influences fungal disease dynamics, focusing on emergence of new fungal pathogens, increased antifungal resistance, expanding geographic ranges of fungal pathogens, and heightened host susceptibility. Rising temperatures and altered precipitation patterns enhance fungal growth and resistance mechanisms, complicating treatment efforts. Climate-driven geographic shifts are expanding the range of diseases like Valley fever, histoplasmosis, and blastomycosis.
