Prevalence, perinatal outcomes and factors associated with neonatal sepsis in Nigeria
CONCLUSIONS: Neonatal sepsis remains a critical challenge in neonatal care, underscored by its high prevalence and mortality rate. The identification of maternal and neonatal risk factors underscores the importance of improved access to education and employment for women and targeted interventions in antenatal and intrapartum care.PMID:38602158 | DOI:10.1111/1471-0528.17824 (Source: BJOG : An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology)

Gig Work and the Pandemic: Looking for Good Pay from Bad Jobs During the COVID-19 Crisis
Work Occup. 2023 Feb;50(1):60-96. doi: 10.1177/07308884221128511.ABSTRACTCOVID-19 led to work hour reductions and layoffs for many Americans with wage/salary jobs. Some gig work, however, which is usually considered precarious, remained available. We examine whether people doing gig microtasks right before the pandemic increased their microtask hours during COVID-19 and whether those changes helped them financially. Using data from workers on Amazon's Mechanical Turk platform from February, March, and April of 2020, we find that roughly one third of existing workers increased their microtask hours. Increases were larger fo...

Assessing Your Job
Over half of orthopedic surgeons will change jobs prior to their fifth year in practice. Commonly cited reasons behind the change include compensation, work –life balance, poor job fit, and dissatisfaction with management. Many of these factors are difficult to vet as a job applicant and are often only realized during the course of real-life practice. Possessing the tools and knowledge for effective self-reflection is crucial. It enables a clear under standing of why the current job may not be working and provides insights on how to transition to a different career path. (Source: Clinics in Sports Medicine)

Why is Advocacy Important in Allergy?
Many in our profession ask the question posed in this article's title. Most of us just want to do our jobs and hope it all “works out,” because it almost always does. Too few understand the “Why” of how the practice of medicine led to our current state of affairs.
