Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) is a major cause of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD), particularly in cases that involve complications affecting the nervous system or cardiopulmonary function. In South America, EV-A71 has primarily been identified through studies of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) and other neurological disorders. In September 2022, two children from a small city in Uruguay were hospitalized with presumptive rhombencephalitis, exhibiting symptoms of HFMD.

Academic Centre of General Practice, Department of Public Health and Primary Care.
Background: The impact of a patient safety incident (PSI) on nurses and doctors in hospital settings has been studied in depth. However, the impact of a PSI on general practitioners and how those health care professionals can be supported are less clear.
Objectives: The objective of this study is to investigate the prevalence of GPs (in training) being personally involved in a PSI, as well as the impact, the support needed, and open disclosure in the aftermath of these PSIs.
Validating the Cattell-Braasch maneuver with a case of inherent atypical malrotation of the bowel: a case report.

Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Anatomy, University of Leipzig, Liebigstraße 13, 04103, Leipzig, Germany.
Background: Malrotation of the bowel due to imperfect embryologic development is a rare condition with a wide spectrum of resulting anatomical variations. Similar conditions are achieved in the adult by derotating the bowel via the Cattell-Braasch maneuver. However, possible preparational bias might compromise the resulting topography.

The rearranged during transfection (RET) gene is on chromosome 10 (10q11.2) and normally encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a role in the development of the kidney, nervous, and respiratory systems. Aberrant RET gene activation can occur through gene mutations, gene fusions, or over expression leading to uncontrolled cell growth and the development of malignancy.

Article Synopsis
- Despite global efforts to control COVID-19, transmission remains high, and many countries, including Japan, have relaxed mask-wearing mandates since February 2023.
- A mathematical model was developed to assess the impact of declining mask-wearing rates on COVID-19 incidence in Tokyo, revealing that coverage fell from 97% to 69% by October 2023.
- The findings suggest that continued mask recommendations could have saved 427 lives, with a significant risk of increased deaths if mask usage drops further, highlighting the importance of such measures in managing future pandemics.
