Can’t get enough of Bubble Wrap? The Bubble Wrap Plus is a monthly paediatric journal club reading list from Anke Raaijmakers, working with Professor Jaan Toelen and his team at the University Hospitals in Leuven. This comprehensive list is developed from 34 journals, including major and subspecialty paediatric journals. We suggest this list can help you discover relevant or interesting articles for your local journal club or allow you to keep a finger on the pulse of paediatric research.
This month’s list features answers to intriguing questions such as: ‘Is continuous beta-lactaminfusion better than intermittent infusion?’, ‘Is iron deficiency associated with reduced
cognitive function?’, ‘Is congenital CMV infection associated with congenital rickets?’, ‘What
is the best amount of intramuscular VitK in neonates?’ and ‘Is prophylactic surfactant
nebulisation useful in preterm infants?’.
You will find the list is broken down into four sections:
