For those that can’t get enough of Bubble Wrap – enjoy this month’s Bubble Wrap Plus – a monthly paediatric journal club list provided by Anke Raaijmakers working with the creator of the list, 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. We suggest this list can help you discover relevant or interesting articles for your local journal club or simply help you to keep an finger on the pulse of paediatric research.
This month’s list features answers to intriguing questions such as: ‘How can we clinically suspect endocarditis?’, ‘Are there cardiovascular comorbidities in IVF babies?’, ‘Is maternal education good or bad for vaccination rates?’.
You will find the list is broken down into four sections:
