We sought to categorize the structural brain anomalies associated with abnormalities of corpus callosum and anterior hippocampal commissures in a large cohort.Brain MR images adult pediatric patients from our institution national support organization (the ACC Network) were retrospectively evaluated for type severity commissural presence other abnormalities.Of 142 cases that reviewed, 82 had agenesis (ACC), while 60 hypogenesis (HCC). Of overall cohort, almost all reduced white matter volume...
This cross-sectional study characterizes the relationships between perpetrators and victims in mass shootings that involved child US.
The first COVID-19 cases occurred in the US January of 2020, leading to implementation shelter place. This study seeks define impact place on epidemiology pediatric trauma.We examined trauma admissions at 5 Level 1 and 2 centers between June 30, 2017-2020. Demographic injury data were compared pre- post-shelter patient cohorts.A total 8772 activations reviewed. There was a 13% decrease volume with nadir 16 days following Injury severity scores higher cohort. incidence nonmotorized vehicle...
Objective: To quantify liver fibrosis in infants with biliary atresia (BA) through automated analysis of collagen extracellular matrix (ECM) ultrastructure index biopsies and use a composite architecture score to predict native survival. Summary Background Data: Despite early management Kasai portoenterostomy , BA remains the leading indication for pediatric transplantation. There is no established method quantitatively assessing patients BA, factors accurately which will ultimately require...
Pectus excavatum and carinatum are two of the most commonly observed chest wall deformities in pediatrics. The standard diagnostic evaluation for these conditions includes either radiograph (CXR) or computed tomography (CT). Our research aims to develop a novel reliable way quantifying clinic setting without radiation exposure.Using handheld structured light scanner, we created three-dimensional (3D) models patients with through an IRB-approved protocol. Raters from variety backgrounds were...
Pediatric firearm-related injuries pose a significant public health problem in the United States, yet associated financial burden has not been well described.
