Background: Extreme heat exposure is an increasing public health concern, particularly in the context of climate change. Limited research has explored its impact on children's cognitive outcomes. This study investigates the association between extreme heat exposure and cognitive function in 9-10-year-old children, using data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study.

Cell entry by enveloped viruses involves a set of multistep, multivalent interactions between viral and host proteins as well as manipulation of nanoscale membrane mechanics by these interacting partners. A mechanistic understanding of these events has been challenging due to the complex nature of the interactions and the event-to-event heterogeneity involved. Single-virus microscopy has emerged as a powerful technique to probe viral binding and fusion kinetics.

Objective: To study the impact of kinetic glomerular filtration rate (kGFR) on clinical decision making and its implications on drug dosing compared to that of estimated GFR (eGFR) using chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) admitted in a tertiary level intensive care unit (ICU).
Methods: Cross-sectional, prospective, observational study design. All patients admitted to Medical ICU, Fortis Hospital, Bangalore with AKI defined as per AKI network (AKIN) criteria.

Patient-centered outcomes, such as quality of life and length of hospital stay, are the focus in a wide array of clinical studies. However, participants in randomized trials for elderly or critically and severely ill patient populations may have truncated or undefined non-mortality outcomes if they do not survive through the measurement time point. To address truncation by death, the survivor average causal effect has been proposed as a causally interpretable subgroup treatment effect defined under the principal stratification framework.

Background: Preventing HIV infections among adolescents and young adults (AYA) is crucial for curtailing the epidemic. Oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a highly effective prevention method increasingly available to this age group in sub-Saharan Africa but population-based data on awareness and use of PrEP among AYA remains limited.
Methods: Analyzing survey data from two rounds of the Rakai Community Cohort Study, an open, population-based cohort, we estimated prevalence ratios associating various sociodemographic characteristics with PrEP awareness and ever-use among 15- to 24-year-olds in south-central Uganda between 2018 and 2023.
