Abstract: Empyema necessitans is a rare complication of pleural effusion that occurs when infected fluid dissects into the chest wall from space. Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Actinomyces israelii have previously been most commonly reported etiologic agents. This case presents an empyema secondary to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) following influenza A infection in child.
Abstract Introduction Dynamic computed tomography (dCT) gives real‐time physiological information and objective descriptions of airway narrowing in tracheobronchomalacia (TBM). There is a paucity literature the evaluation TBM by dCT premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The aim this study to describe findings resultant changes management TBM. Methods A retrospective 70 was performed. Infants included were <32 weeks gestation without major anomalies. defined as ≥50%...
Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) may manifest in the neonatal period as a life-threatening salt-wasting syndrome providing challenges recognition and treatment. This case describes newborn who developed severe dehydration electrolyte imbalances subsequently was found to have novel SCNN1B gene variant resulting autosomal recessive systemic PHA1.
ABSTRACT Background There are limited studies on educational outcomes of children born with esophageal atresia (EA) or without tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). We aimed to compare 3rd 5th grade academic proficiency among EA/TEF versus unaffected children. Methods Children (2000–2005) were identified from the Arkansas Reproductive Health Monitoring System. For each child EA/TEF, up two selected birth certificates and matched hospital month birth, sex, race ethnicity. Data NICU hospitalization...

Treatment guidelines and exposure for congenital syphilis have historically based on limited evidence. This case presents term infant who developed necrotizing treatment syphilis.
