There is an overall increase in the use of imaging in the pediatric emergency room setting, which is accompanied by a reduction in computed tomography examinations performed mainly due to the increased awareness of the risks of ionizing radiation. Advances in MRI technology have led to shortened scan time, decreased motion sensitivity, and improved spatial resolution. With increased access to MRI in the emergency room setting, the goal of this article is to review major applications of MR in pediatric emergency room patients.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, The Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, People's Republic of China.
This study aimed to investigate whether lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) upon admission can predict disease progression and intensive care unit (ICU) admission in adult patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). A single-center retrospective study was conducted, including adult DKA patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between March 2018 and March 2023. Multiple demographic and clinical data were collected from the medical records upon admission and during hospitalization.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in children. MASLD encompasses a spectrum of liver disease and can be severe, with 10% of affected children presenting with advanced fibrosis. While biopsy remains the most accurate method for diagnosing and staging the disease, MRI proton density fat fraction and magnetic resonance elastography are the most reliable non-invasive measures for assessing steatosis and fibrosis, respectively.

University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX.
Background And Objectives: Learning difficulties are frequently reported in children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), yet little is known about the extent and predictors of their academic functions across ages. We aimed to examine the developmental patterns of academic achievement in these children from childhood to adolescence and how these patterns differ across demographic and NF1-related disease factors.
Methods: This cross-sectional study integrated data of 1512 children with NF1 (mean age, 11.
