Neurotensin contributes to cholestatic liver disease potentially modulating matrix metalloprotease-7
In conclusion, these findings revealed the changes of neurotensin in patients with cholestatic liver disease and its mechanism in the progression of the disease, providing a new understanding of the complex mechanism of hepatobiliary injury in children with biliary atresia.PMID:38522506 | DOI:10.1016/j.biocel.2024.106567 (Source: The International Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology)

Balloon dilatation for congenital esophageal stenosis associated with esophageal atresia
ConclusionsTwenty-three percent of patients with EA had CES. Although balloon dilatation for EA-associated CES required multiple treatments and carried a risk of perforation, balloon dilatation showed an 89% success rate and all perforations could be managed conservatively.

Congenital cytomegalovirus infection in a preterm infant with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and immunological abnormalities
We report a case of a preterm infant with congenital cytomegalovirus infection complicated with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and immunological abnormalities. Ultrasonography revealed pulmonary atresia, ventricular septal defect, major aortopulmonary collateral artery, and thymic hypoplasia. His serum chemistry tests on admission revealed immunoglobulin G, A, and M levels of 1,547 mg/dL, 70 mg/dL, and 274 mg/dL, respectively. A surface antigen analysis of the peripheral lymphocytes using flow cytometry revealed the following: relatively low CD4-positive T-cell levels (18.1%; 1,767/μL), very high CD8-positive T-cell levels (58...
