Patients with pediatric-onset primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) are at risk of developing hepatic complications liver transplantation as only curative treatment. Complications usually occur over many years, underlining the need for reliable surrogate markers to predict clinical course.

Music therapy is a novel intervention that may minimize neonatal stress. The mechanism of action still largely unknown. We hypothesized one regards altered brain oxygenation (either due to cerebral perfusion or oxygen consumption). measured before, during and after music sessions using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS). extracted data on saturation (rcSO2) calculated fractional tissue extraction (cFTOE). In addition, we heart rate. included 20 infants, receiving 44 sessions. Median...
