Association between Sleeping Position and Cardiac Output Compromise in Neonates: Current Evidence and Future Research
The physiological effect of supine versus prone positions on hemodynamics has been investigated. Among in-hospital patients with critical respiratory illness, the prone position may enhance oxygenation.1 However, the prone position comes with potential adverse effects, encompassing compromised hemodynamics, autonomic control, and diminished sleep arousal.2 The lack of adequate protective responses to hemodynamic shifts while in the prone position was linked with pathological occurrences in infants, notably sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

Clinical implications of dextrocardia based on four visceroatrial situs studies
Previous studies on congenital heart diseases (CHD) associated with dextrocardia were based on selective patient databases and did not reflect the full spectrum of dextrocardia in the general population. Additionally, these studies had complex classification and presentation. Nor did these studies elaborate on the distribution of the associated CHD ’s complexity, the various segmental connections, and associated CHD among the four visceroatrial situs.

Pulmonary Function and Body Composition Parameters of Children with Cystic Fibrosis from a Hight Complexity Institution between 2015 and 2018.
An adequate nutritional status in patients with cystic fibrosis correlates with higher survival and better pulmonary function. Body mass index (BMI) is an anthropometric indicator with independent association with pulmonary function, and it can hide alterations of nutritional status in cystic fibrosis.

Predictive Factors of Progression to Chronic Glomerulonephritis in Pediatric Patients with Post Streptococcal Acute Glomerulonephritis
Post streptococcal acute glomerulonephritis (PSAGN) patients have favorable prognosis, in which most patients showed full recovery in terms of kidney function. However, there is a slight chance ranging from 3 –6% that PSAGN patients develop chronic kidney diseasewhich may progress into end stage kidney disease in later life. It is important to identify the factors that can predict the development of chronic glomerulonephritis following PSAGN. Therefore, early intervention can be performed to halt the p rogression of chronic kidney disease. (Source: Pediatrics and Neonatology)

Music and Movement Therapy Improves Quality of Life and Attention and Associated Electroencephalogram Changes in Patients with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder. Treatments for ADHD include pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapy. However, pharmacological treatments have side effects such as poor appetite, sleep disturbance, and headache. Moreover, nonpharmacological treatments are not effective in ameliorating core symptoms and are time-consuming. Hence, developing an alternative and effective treatment without (or with fewer) side effects is crucial. Music therapy has long been used to treat numerous neurological diseases.

Protective Effect of Breastfeeding on Kawasaki disease: A Systemic Review and Meta-analysis
Previous research has indicated a negative correlation between exclusive breastfeeding and the incidence of Kawasaki disease (KD). However, the validation of this discovery through meta-analytical studies has been lacking. Furthermore, uncertainties persist regarding whether breastfeeding reduces the risk of coronary artery lesions (CAL) or resistance to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG).
