Bubble Wrap PLUS – March ’23

SHARE VIA:

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: ‘How useful is the antimicrobial lock to prevent central line infections?’, ‘Do children who attend childcare experience a higher risk of adenovirus and human metapneumovirus infections?’, ‘Does grandmother’s smoking in pregnancy influence her grandchild’s birthweight?’, ‘Is procalcitonin a useful biomarker for sepsis in pediatric burns?’ and ‘Are fetuses more exposed to language than preterm infants?’.

You will find the list is broken down into four sections:
