Outcomes of a Population-Based Congenital Cytomegalovirus Screening Program.
JAMA Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Importance: Detection of congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection has previously relied on targeted screening programs or clinical recognition; however, these approaches miss most cCMV-infected newborns and fail to identify those infants who are asymptomatic at birth but at risk for late-onset sensorineural hearing loss.
Objective: To determine the feasibility of using routinely collected newborn dried blood spots (DBS) in a population-based cCMV screen to identify infants at risk for hearing loss and describe outcomes of infants screened.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This diagnostic study of a population-based screening program in Ontario, Canada, took place from July 29, 2019, to July 31, 2023.
Vertebral osteomyelitis in patients with infective endocarditis: prevalence, risk factors and mortality.
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Noordwest Hospital, Alkmaar, The Netherlands.
Purpose: Infective endocarditis (IE) can be complicated by vertebral osteomyelitis (VO). This study investigates risk factors associated with VO in patients with infective endocarditis, and 6-month mortality and relapse rates in patients with IE and concomitant VO.
Methods: We performed a observational study in two hospitals between September 2016 and October 2022.
Gesture screening in young infants: Highly sensitive to risk factors for communication delay.

January 2025
Language Development Department, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Introduction: Children's early language and communication skills are efficiently measured using parent report, for example, communicative development inventories (CDIs). These have scalable potential to determine risk of later language delay, and associations between delay and risk factors such as prematurity and poverty. However, there may be measurement difficulties in parent reports, including anomalous directions of association between child age/socioeconomic status and reported language.

Applied Health Research (TGO), University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), Groningen, the Netherlands.
Low frequency noise (LFN) of unknown origin can be disturbing, especially at night, and affect sleep and relaxation. If reduction of the LFN is impossible, adding sound can mask the troubling noise or detract attention from it to reduce distress. To assess the effectiveness of this, a survey was set up consisting of three questionnaires: the first when a person requested a masking sound and follow-ups after 1 and 3 months.

J Clin Microbiol
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, Section of Infectious Diseases, Erasmus University Medical Center, Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
An accurate diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis (IA) in patients with underlying hematological malignancies relies heavily on galactomannan detection. In this study, we compared the VirCLIA chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) with the frequently used Platelia enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on serum from hematology patients with suspected IA. Patients were categorized according to EORTC/MSGERC 2020 definitions into proven/probable IA and possible/no IA.
