Happy New Year! Most of us have a list of resolutions for the new year. We hope that keeping up with the literature in 2022 is one of them. So here is a new Bubble Wrap Plus, our monthly paediatric Journal Club List provided by Professor Jaan Toelen 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 such as: ‘What are the risk factors for suffocation and unexplained infant death?’, ‘Can SARS-CoV2 cause bulging of the anterior fontanelle?’, ‘Is it better to perform a ‘closed’ or ‘open’ endotracheal tube suction in neonates ?’, ‘Does propranolol for infantile haemangioma have an adverse effect on neurocognitive functioning later in life?’ and ‘Is there a specific microbiome associated with eosinophilic oesophagitis?’.
You will find the list is broken down into four sections:
