This article evaluates the surgical results of medial rectus (MR) muscle recession combined with longitudinal splitting and surgical union of the lateral rectus (LR) and superior rectus (SR) muscles in highly myopic patients. The procedure targets severe strabismus fixus presenting as pronounced esotropia and hypotropia with restricted abduction and elevation. The findings suggest the method is effective when deviant paths of the LR and SR muscles are confirmed by imaging (MRI or CT scan).

A summary covering the definition, etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and management of jaundice and cholestasis. The document differentiates between unconjugated and conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, categorizes causes as prehepatic, intrahepatic, or posthepatic, and lists specific etiologies including hemolysis, G6PD deficiency, and drug effects.

A peer-reviewed journal issue focusing on contemporary topics in neonatal and fetal medicine, including minimally invasive fetal surgery, surgical management of congenital lung malformations, abdominal surgical emergencies in neonates, and historical perspectives on neonatal resuscitation practices.
Systematic review focusing on the current understanding, knowledge, and evidence gathered via meta-analysis on two modes of non-invasive ventilation (NIV)—Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV)—in preterm infants. It evaluates their use as primary intent respiratory support post-birth or following extubation to minimize the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGANs).
