Design: Cross-sectional online voluntary survey.

Diagnostic accuracy of small-for-gestational-age status for infant mortality and school-age outcomes of live births <28 weeks' gestation: a cohort study.

Objectives: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of small-for-gestational-age (SGA; <10th centile) status for infant mortality and adverse school-age outcomes in infants born extremely preterm (EP; <28 weeks' gestation).

Design: Geographical cohort studies.

Setting: The state of Victoria, Australia.

Pharmacological emergency management of agitation in children and young people: protocol for a randomised controlled trial of oral medication (PEAChY-O).

Introduction: Acute severe behavioural disturbance (ASBD) is a condition seen with increasing frequency in emergency departments (EDs) in adults and young people. Despite the increasing number of presentations and significant associated risks to patients, families and caregivers, there is limited evidence to guide the most effective pharmacological management in children and adolescents. The aim of this study is to determine whether a single dose of oral olanzapine is more effective than a dose of oral diazepam at successfully sedating young people with ASBD.

Pharmacological Emergency management of Agitation in Children and Young people: protocol for a randomised controlled trial of intraMuscular medication (PEAChY-M).

Introduction: Acute severe behavioural disturbance (ASBD) is a condition seen with increasing frequency in emergency departments (EDs) in adults and young people. Despite the increasing number of presentations and significant associated risks to patients, families and caregivers, there is limited evidence to guide the most effective pharmacological management in children and adolescents. The aim of this study is to determine whether a single dose of intramuscular olanzapine is more effective than intramuscular droperidol at successfully sedating young people with ASBD requiring intramuscular sedation.

Vitamin D knowledge and sun exposure practices among Sri Lankan healthcare undergraduates.

Introduction: Although overexposure to ultraviolet radiation may lead to skin cancer, inadequate exposure results in vitamin D deficiency (VDD). We explored vitamin D-related knowledge and sun exposure practices among Sri Lankan healthcare undergraduates.

Methods: The sampling frame consisted of medical and allied health undergraduates in a single centre.

Presentation design and delivery to improve knowledge translation in a remote world.

The practical dissemination of new knowledge is not given adequate attention despite large investment in undertaking high-quality research and the desire for evidence-based practice. It is important that those involved in knowledge translation and continuing medical education understand the fundamental principles of effective presentations, whether at scientific conferences, workshops or group teaching sessions. The switch to remote presentations has made this a more challenging endeavour.

Summary: Studies foundational for building recent, regional approaches/programs are reviewed.

Interactive Inpatient Asthma Education: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background And Objectives: Inpatient asthma education interventions provide benefit compared with usual care, but evaluation of the most effective educational model is needed. We compared the impact of interactive versus didactic inpatient pediatric asthma education on subsequent emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations.

Methods: Children (aged 2‒16) with asthma admitted to a tertiary care children's hospital with an asthma exacerbation between October 2016 and June 2017 were randomly assigned to interactive or didactic (control) asthma education.

Role of Environment in Pediatric Rheumatic Diseases.

Studying environmental risk factors for pediatric rheumatic diseases (PRD) is important because the identification of these factors may lead to strategies to prevent disease, and to new insights into pathogenesis and therapeutic targets. Compared with other chronic diseases, there are few environmental epidemiology studies in PRD. Although strong risk factors common to all PRDs have not been identified, some exposures including infection, smoke exposure, and ultraviolet radiation have been associated with several of them.

Identification of consistent post-translational regulatory triplets related to oncogenic and tumour suppressive modulators in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common type of childhood cancer. It can be caused by mutations that turn on oncogenes or turn off tumour suppressor genes. For instance, changes in certain genes including Rb and p53 are common in ALL cells.

Caregiver Perceptions of Children's Psychological Well-being During the COVID-19 Pandemic.
