Objective: Diet is an important factor influencing central precocious puberty (CPP). This study aimed to investigate the relationship among diet quality, pro-inflammatory diets, and CPP in Chinese girls.
Design, Patients And Measurements: This case-control study enroled 112 Chinese girls with CPP and 131 healthy controls. Children's dietary intake was assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire, anthropometric and sociodemographic data were collected and serum interleukin-6 levels were measured. We calculated the Children's Dietary Inflammatory Index (C-DII), Chinese Children's Dietary Index (CCDI), Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) score, and the adjusted Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (aDASH) score. The association between diet and the risk of CPP was analysed using logistic regression models.
Results: After adjustment, higher C-DII scores were associated with an increased risk of CPP (P for trend = 0.034), and aDASH scores were significantly negatively associated with the risk of CPP (P for trend = 0.048). Serum IL-6 levels were significantly higher in the case group than in the control group and were positively correlated with the risk of CPP (P for trend = 0.006).
Conclusions: High-quality dietary patterns and an anti-inflammatory diet may contribute to the prevention of CPP in Chinese girls.

Background: The harm-benefit balance for early out-of-bed mobilisation of patients with severe acquired brain injury (ABI) in neurointensive care units (neuro-ICUs) is unclear, and there are no clinical guidelines. This study aimed to survey the current clinical practice and perceptions among clinicians involved in first out-of-bed mobilisation in Scandinavian neuro-ICUs.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional, anonymous, web-based survey; the reporting follows the recommended CROSS checklist.

Central precocious puberty (CPP) is an endocrine disorder in children caused by the early activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis (HPGA), leading to elevated gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which triggers the development of gonads and the secretion of sex hormones. This eventually results in the development of internal and external genitalia and secondary sexual characteristics. CPP significantly affects the physical and mental health of children and may increase the risk of various adult diseases.

Background: Severe respiratory complications following kidney transplantation have been reported, yet remain poorly understood in the pediatric population. This study aimed to document respiratory disease in this population.
Methods: At annual follow-ups, patients completed a respiratory symptoms questionnaire and underwent pulmonary function tests (PFTs).

In patients with acute brain injury (ABI), optimizing cerebral perfusion parameters relies on multimodal monitoring. This include data from systemic monitoring-mean arterial pressure (MAP), arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO), hemoglobin levels (Hb), and temperature-as well as neurological monitoring-intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), and transcranial Doppler (TCD) velocities. We hypothesized that these parameters alone were not sufficient to assess the risk of cerebral ischemia.

We investigated people living with HIV (PLWH)'s exposure to COVID-19 pandemic stressors and their association with distress, psychological growth, and substance use. PLWH in the ANRS CO3 AQUIVIH-NA cohort's QuAliV study (Nouvelle Aquitaine, France) completed an adapted CAIR Lab Pandemic Impact Questionnaire (C-PIQ) and reported substance use between 9/2021 to 3/2022. We described cumulative stressor exposure (score 0-16) and explored variation by PLWH characteristics (demographic, HIV-related, risk factors, psychosocial).
