Purpose: New stoma creation is related to a wide range of implications and stoma-related complications could occur frequently. The aim was to assess the impact of a close stoma-therapeutic-care pathway (STCP) in terms of length of stay, autonomy in the management of the pouch, readmission rate, and stoma-related complications.
Methods: Patients undergoing surgery for colorectal disease and first stoma creation from January 2017 to December 2020 were analyzed. All patients enrolled had joined the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocol.
Results: Among 143 enrolled, 56 (40%) did not completely follow the STCP (group A), whereas 87 (60%) demonstrated strict compliance (group B). The hospital stay lasted 8 days in group B and 11.5 in group A (p = 0.001). The first look at the stoma needed 1 day in group B and 3 days in group A (p < 0.001), emptying the pouch 2 days in group B and 5 days in group A (p < 0.001). Finally, the ability to change the pouch was 3 days in group B and 6 days in group A (p < 0.001). Nine (16.1%) stoma-related complications were counted in group A and 16 (18.4%) in group B, and 30-day readmission was 10.1% in group B and 11.5% in group A (p = 0.82 and p = 1, respectively, not significant).
Conclusions: The STCP has been shown to reduce the hospital stay and to have a protective role making the patient autonomous in the management of the stoma.

Indian J Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Jodhpur, India.
Objectives: To evaluate the predictive ability of furosemide stress test (FST), serum and urine cystatin-C in identifying progressive acute kidney injury (AKI) and the need for kidney replacement therapy (KRT).
Methods: Children aged one month to 18 y admitted in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) with Kidney Diseases Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stage-1/2 AKI were enrolled. FST and serum and urine cystatin-C levels were performed and analyzed.

January 2025
WHO Collaborating Centre for Reference and Research on Influenza, VIDRL, Doherty Institute, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Aims: Primary aim was to review severe acute respiratory infections (SARI) hospitalisations caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in children aged < 2 years in paediatric hospitals in Australia. Secondary aims included RSV subtyping, assessing RSV seasonality and contributing to the World Health Organisation's RSV surveillance programme.
Methods: We prospectively reviewed the medical records of children (< 2 years of age) with a confirmed SARI who were admitted to one of four major Australian paediatric hospitals and had a respiratory sample analysed by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
Different Internal Fixation Methods for Sanders Type II and III Calcaneal Fractures: A 5-Year Retrospective Study and Finite Element Analysis.
Orthop Surg

Orthopedics Department, Gongli Hospital of Shanghai Pudong New Area, Shanghai, China.
Objective: Soft tissue defects and postoperative wound healing complications related to calcaneus fractures may result in significant morbidity. The aim of this study was to investigate whether percutaneous minimally invasive screw internal fixation (PMISIF) can change this situation in the treatment of calcaneal fractures, and aimed to explore the mechanical effects of different internal fixation methods on Sanders type III calcaneal fractures through finite element analysis.
Methods: This retrospective analysis focused on 83 patients with Sanders II and III calcaneal fractures from March 2017 to March 2022.

Department of Nephrology and Immunology, Children's Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, Jiangsu 215000, China.
Objectives: To investigate the clinical sub-phenotype (SP) of pediatric acute kidney injury (AKI) and their association with clinical outcomes.
Methods: General status and initial values of laboratory markers within 24 hours after admission to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) were recorded for children with AKI in the derivation cohort (=650) and the validation cohort (=177). In the derivation cohort, a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis was used to identify death-related indicators, and a two-step cluster analysis was employed to obtain the clinical SP of AKI.
