Welcome to April’s Bubble Wrap Plus, our monthly paediatric journal club provided by Professor Jaan Toelen & his team of the University Hospitals in Leuven (Belgium). This comprehensive list of ‘articles to read’ comes from 34 journals, including Pediatrics, The Journal of Pediatrics, Archives of Disease in Childhood, JAMA Pediatrics, Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, NEJM, and many more.
This month’s list features answers to intriguing questions (and maybe answers) such as: ‘Do pediatricians follow guidelines when managing status epilepticus in children?’, ‘Does antibiotic prophylaxis for UTI lead to fewer non-UTI infections?’, ‘Is intranasal fentanyl safe for procedural pain management in neonates?’ and ‘Does the early or late introduction of allergens change the development of atopic disease?’.
You will find the list broken down into four sections:
