Survival of Extremely Preterm Neonates in a Resource-limited Setting
Background: Preterm birth is a major contributor to neonatal and under-five mortality, and births at lower gestational ages (GA) contribute more to these statistics. Most developed countries have succeeded in improving survival at extremes of GA, while most developing countries like Nigeria still lag behind. The objective of this retrospective study was to document the...
متن کاملMassed versus Distributed Practice in Learned Improvement of Speech Intelligibility
16. Abstract Student pilots or new air traffic controllers have two ways to learn to understand the noisy and distorted communications common to aircraft operations: they may learn as they are working on other aspects of the activity, or they may learn by devoting a continuous period of time to speech--intelligibility improvement. Work completed at this laboratory indicates that two listening s...
متن کاملSurgical Management of Congenital Hyperinsulinism in a Resource-Limited Setting
Laboratory investigations revealed hemoglobin 14.6 g/dL, total leukocyte count 12X109/L, and platelet count 290X109/L. C-reactive protein (CRP) was negative. During the hospital stay, the infant had repeated generalized and focal clonic seizures during documented hypoglycemic episodes requiring glucose infusion rate (GIR) up to 14 mg/kg/min. There was no ketosis, hyperammonemia, or lactic acido...

متن کاملLung Lesions Biopsy in Children by Computed Tomography (CT) Fluoroscopy Guided Versus Conventional CT Scan Guided
Abstract Background Computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy of the lung is a well-established method of diagnosis. The aim of this study was to determine the success rate of fluoroscopic CT (FCT) and conventional CT (CCT) in needle navigation biopsies from the lung lesions. Materials and Methods A total of 78 patients were prospectively enrolled to receive CT-guided biopsy with (group I, n=2...
