"Innovative multidisciplinary care in pediatric magnet aspiration: A case report".

Introduction: Foreign body (FB) inhalation is a potentially life-threatening condition in children. Magnets, being rare, aspirated objects, pose significant threat due to their physical and magnetic properties.

Case Presentation: A 10-year-old girl with a history of magnet aspiration went into respiratory distress due to dislodgement of magnet to opposite main bronchus following failed attempt of removal via Rigid Bronchoscopy.

Positive Predictive Value of Contrast-Enhanced Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Diagnosis of Meningitis Among Pediatrics Taking Cerebrospinal Fluid Analysis as Gold Standard.

Background And Objective: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is the gold standard for meningitis diagnosis. It is invasive, time-consuming, and can inoculate infection. CSF analysis is not appropriate for many children without significant clinical suspicion, and delaying decision-making can have negative consequences.

An atypical abdominal manifestation of retroperitoneal teratoma: Case report.

Introduction & Importance: Teratomas, typically situated in midline areas like the sacrococcygeal region, may rarely manifest in the retroperitoneal region. Often asymptomatic and incidentally discovered, they can lead to complications such as infection, tumor rupture, or, exceptionally, peritonitis.

Case Presentation: In a 2-year-old child with a history of trauma, an atypical presentation of acute abdomen and peritonitis was observed.

Outcome Analysis of Transperitoneal Laparoscopic Nephrectomy in Children: Experience from a Developing Country.

Objective: To analyse the outcome of laparoscopic nephrectomy among children.

Study Design: An observational study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Paediatric Urology, Children's Hospital Lahore, from September 2021 to June 2023.

variants cause a phenotypic spectrum from early-onset Parkinson's disease to perinatal lethality by disrupting mitochondrial pathways.

Dissecting biological pathways highlighted by Mendelian gene discovery has provided critical insights into the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and neurodegeneration. This approach ultimately catalyzes the identification of potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Here, we identify as a new gene implicated in PD and childhood neurodegeneration.

Biallelic null variants in PNPLA8 cause microcephaly by reducing the number of basal radial glia.

Patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing lipase 8 (PNPLA8), one of the calcium-independent phospholipase A2 enzymes, is involved in various physiological processes through the maintenance of membrane phospholipids. Biallelic variants in PNPLA8 have been associated with a range of paediatric neurodegenerative disorders. However, the phenotypic spectrum, genotype-phenotype correlations and the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.

Atypical Complications during the Course of COVID-19: A Comprehensive Review.

COVID-19 is primarily a respiratory disease, but numerous studies have indicated the involvement of various organ systems during the course of illness. We conducted a comprehensive review of atypical complications of COVID-19 with their incidence range (IR) and their impact on hospitalization and mortality rates. We identified 97 studies, including 55 research articles and 42 case studies.

Hospital Acquired Pathogenic from Clinical and Hospital Water Samples of Quetta Balochistan.

A study was conducted to determine the prevalence and drug resistance of present in urinary tract infected patients and hospital drinking water. A total of eighty urine samples from clinically suspected patients and thirty tap water samples from hospital vicinity were collected and analyzed for the presence of . The isolates were preliminary identified based on morphological characteristics, biochemical test and further confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using primer.

Effect of donor and red blood cells concentrate characteristics on recipient hemoglobin increment following red blood cells transfusion in pediatric patients.

Objectives: To determine the effects of donor and red blood cells concentrate characteristics on recipient hemoglobin increment following red blood cells transfusion in pediatric patients.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at The Hematology & Transfusion Medicine Department of The UCHS & The Children's Hospital, Lahore from 23 December 2020 to 31 July 2021 after Institutional Ethical committee approval. After taking informed consent from parents/guardians, One hundred recipients receiving RBCs unit transfusion studied along with the respective donors.
