The B Chromosome of Pseudococcus viburni: A Selfish Chromosome that Exploits Whole-Genome Meiotic Drive.
Genome Biol Evol
January 2025
School of Biological Sciences, Institute of Ecology and Evolution, The University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH9 3FL, UK.
Meiosis is generally a fair process: each chromosome has a 50% chance of being included into each gamete. However, meiosis can become aberrant with some chromosomes having a higher chance of making it into gametes than others. Yet, why and how such systems evolve remains unclear.

J Paediatr Child Health
January 2025
Department of Paediatrics, Royal Hobart Hospital, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.
Aim: To improve delayed cord clamping (DCC) rates for preterm infants (≤ 34 + 0 weeks' gestation) and establish DCC as standard practice using quality improvement (QI) methods.
Methods: A multi-departmental initiative was undertaken. An audit of DCC for preterm infants born at or before 34 + 0 weeks was performed.
Epidemiological Patterns and Geospatial Mapping of Cleft Lip/Palate in a Comprehensive Cleft Center in Northwestern Nigeria: Estimating Distribution Using Geographical Information Systems.
Cleft Palate Craniofac J
January 2025
Department of Oral Pathology, Radiology and Medicine, Dows Institute for Dental Research, College of Dentistry, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA, USA.
Objective: This study aims to estimate the geospatial distribution of cleft lip/palate (CL/P) cases in northwestern Nigeria and to estimate the prevalence and patterns of CL/P across wards.
Design: This retrospective study utilized information from health records for inpatients with CL/P. These data were analyzed via descriptive statistics.
Capacity Planning (Capital, Staff and Costs) of Inpatient Maternity Services: Pitfalls for the Unwary.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
January 2025
Healthcare Analysis and Forecasting, Wantage OX12 0NE, UK.
This study investigates the process of planning for future inpatient resources (beds, staff and costs) for maternity (pregnancy and childbirth) services. The process of planning is approached from a patient-centered philosophy; hence, how do we discharge a suitably rested healthy mother who is fully capable of caring for the newborn baby back into the community? This demonstrates some of the difficulties in predicting future births and investigates trends in the average length of stay. While it is relatively easy to document longer-term (past) trends in births and the conditions relating to pregnancy and birth, it is exceedingly difficult to predict the future nature of such trends.

BMC Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Community and Public Health, Busitema University, Mbale, Uganda.
Background: Omphalitis is a bacterial infection of the umbilicus and/or surrounding tissues, occurring primarily in the neonatal period. Whereas it is known to be a major route of localized and often systemic infection, studies describing incidence and risk factors remain scanty, especially in resource limited settings where the condition is thought to be common. We assessed the incidence and risk factors for omphalitis among neonates born to women who received a birth kit containing chlorhexidine for umbilical cord care after birth in Eastern Uganda.
