Impact of newborn screening for SCID on the management of congenital athymia
Newborn screening (NBS) programmes for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) facilitate early SCID diagnosis and promote early treatment with haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, resulting in improved clinical outcomes. Infants with congenital athymia are also identified through NBS due to severe T-cell lymphopaenia. With the expanding introduction of NBS programmes, referrals of athymic patients for treatment with thymus transplantation have recently increased at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), London, United Kingdom.

Metal Allergy Testing in Patients Listed for Temporomandibular Joint Replacement at Massachusetts General Hospital
Patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthropathies (i.e end-stage degeneration, invasive pathology, or developmental anomalies) may be candidates for total joint replacement (TJR). There is only one FDA-approved manufacturer of patient-specific alloplasts of the TMJ, Stryker-TMJ Concepts. Stryker can fabricate a custom prosthesis composed of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy, with a maximum of 1% nickel present in the condylar component. However, metal hypersensitivity can occur, which may cause failure in up to 3% of TMJ replacements.

An outbreak of anaphylactic transfusion reactions to group B plasma and platelets and its possible relationship to Alpha-Gal syndrome
DISCUSSION: AGS is an emerging problem which may have implications for blood transfusion practice.

Effect of aqueous olanexidine versus alcohol-based chlorhexidine for surgical skin antisepsis on incidence of surgical site infections in gastrointestinal surgery: multicentre randomised controlled clinical trial (OEDO trial) protocol
Introduction Surgical site infections (SSIs) are among the most common nosocomial infections in surgery patients. Two types of preparations, povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine-alcohol, are commonly used in preoperative antiseptic procedures worldwide. However, there are inconsistencies among international guideline recommendations concerning skin antiseptics. This trial aimed to evaluate the superiority of olanexidine, which reduced SSI rates more than povidone-iodine in our previous randomised trial, over chlorhexidine-alcohol in clean-contaminated surgery. Methods and analysis This multicentre randomised controlled clini...
