child refers to a person who is younger than 18 years of age (Lansdown & Vaghri,2022). We use the term adolescent or adolescence when describing maturational changes occurring during puberty or to be consistent with terms used in cited studies. Drugs in the GnRH analogue class include leuproli...
Warm Shock (vasodilated, hypotensive): administer Norepinephrine 0.1-2 mcg/kg/minute and titrate to BP Cold Shock (vasoconstricted, hypotensive): administer Epinephrine 0.1-1 mcg/kg/minute and titrate to BP Normal BP with poor perfusion: administer dopamine 2-20 mcg/kg/minute If ScvO2 >70% ...

A hypopnea was defined when flow decreased by 30% of a normal breath. However, many still require an EEG arousal and/or an SaO2 drop, despite previous demonstration that clinical consequences can be obtained without a change in SaO2. An RDI of more than 5 events was used on the basis of...
Findings suggest children with normal BP may not need yearly screenings Children with normal blood pressure may not need BP screenings as often as current recommendations call for, according to a longitudinal study published in JAMA Pediatrics. ...
Until the 1980s, the primary strategy for identifying human genetic disease genes was to focus on biochemical and physiologic differences between normal and affected individuals. However, for the vast majority of inher- ited single-gene disorders in human, adequate biochemical information was either ...
The biology of PTCL-NOS shows great diversity. Identifying the normal cells that correspond to the cellular origin of different PTCL-NOS diseases has been challenging. Several pan-T-cell antigens, as well as cytotoxic and activated T-cell markers, are seen across different T-cell developmental ...
However, on review of trauma patients with severe injuries (NISS ≥ 16) and traumatic shock (based on age-determined BP [blood pressure]), they found adolescent females to have significantly lower odds of death compared with adolescent males. They found no gender difference in preadolescent ...
(PET/CT) imaging systems has provided additional diagnostic capability by providing precise anatomic localization of metabolic information and metabolic characterization of normal and abnormal structures. The use of CT transmission scanning for attenuation correction has shortened the total acquisition time, ...
Heatmap showing differential miRNA expression in diseased vs normal control group. The left panel represents JIA-AU patients, and the right panel represents IU patients. The green color indicates lower than mean intensity, and red represents higher than mean intensity. Each row represents a miRNA,...
