Background: Understanding the interactions among predictors of dental trust in children is important for designing effective interventions in pediatric dental care.
Aim: This study aimed to develop and validate a conceptual model to evaluate factors influencing dental trust in children.
Design: This cross-sectional study included 267 parent-child dyads. Data collection tools included a sociodemographic data form, the Turkish Oral Health Literacy Assessment Task (TOHLAT-P), the Dental Trust Scale (DTS), the Children's Fear Survey Schedule-Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS), and the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS). The conceptual model explored the factors influencing dental trust in children by incorporating endogenous and exogenous variables. Path analysis was conducted to test model fit.
Results: Dental trust was significantly associated with parental oral health literacy (β = -0.20; P < 0.001), dental anxiety (β = -0.18; P < 0.001), and oral health-related quality of life (β = -0.15; P < 0.001). The path analysis confirmed the validity of the proposed model, showing significant pathways between these variables and dental trust in children.
Conclusions: This study presents a validated model illustrating the relationships between parental and child-related factors and dental trust in children. These findings underscore the importance of addressing these factors in clinical strategies to enhance dental trust and improve pediatric dental outcomes.

Background: The UK National Paediatric Diabetes Audit (NPDA) data reports disparities in Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels among children and young people (CYP) with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), with higher levels in those of Black ethnic background and lower socioeconomic status who have less access to technology. We investigate HbA1c differences in a T1D cohort with higher than national average technology uptake where > 60% come from an ethnic minority and/or socioeconomically deprived population.
Design & Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional study investigating the influence of demographic factors, technology use, and socioeconomic status (SES) on glycaemic outcomes.

Adjuvant Chemotherapy After Resection of Localized Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Following Preoperative FOLFIRINOX.
JAMA Oncol
January 2025
Amsterdam UMC, location University of Amsterdam, Department of Surgery, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Importance: The effect of adjuvant chemotherapy following resection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma after preoperative (m)FOLFIRINOX (combination leucovorin calcium [folinic acid], fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, and oxaliplatin in full or modified dosing) chemotherapy on overall survival (OS) is unclear because current studies do not account for the number of cycles of preoperative chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy regimen.
Objective: To investigate the association of adjuvant chemotherapy following resection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma after preoperative (m)FOLFIRINOX with OS, taking into account the number of cycles of preoperative chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy regimen.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective cohort study included patients with localized pancreatic adenocarcinoma treated with 2 to 11 cycles of preoperative (m)FOLFIRINOX followed by resection across 48 centers in 20 countries from 2010 to 2018.

Purpose: The landiolol and organ failure in patients with septic shock (STRESS-L study) included a pre-planned sub-study to assess the effect of landiolol treatment on inflammatory and metabolomic markers.
Methods: Samples collected from 91 patients randomised to STRESS-L were profiled for immune and metabolomic markers. A panel of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines were measured through commercially acquired multiplex Luminex assays and statistically analysed by individual and cluster-level analysis (patient).
Role of Artificial Intelligence in MRI-Based Rectal Cancer Staging: A Systematic Review.

Several studies explored the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based rectal cancer (RC) staging, but a comprehensive evaluation remains lacking. This systematic review aims to review the performance of AI models in MRI-based RC staging. PubMed and Embase were searched from the inception of the database till October 2024 without any language and year restrictions.
