SUDDEN UNEXPECTED INFANT DEATH (SUDI) IN A NEWBORN DUE TO MEDIUM CHAIN ACYL COA DEHYDROGENASE (MCAD) DEFICIENCY WITH AN UNUSUAL SEVERE GENOTYPE

Sudden unexpected infant death (SUDI) in a newborn due to medium chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency with an unusual severe genotype

Abstract Medium chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCAD) is the most common inborn error of fatty acid oxidation.This condition may lead to cellular energy shortage and cause severe clinical events such as hypoketotic hypoglycemia, Reye syndrome and sudden death.MCAD deficiency usually presents around three to six months of life, following ca

Influence of the Apron Parking Stand Management Policy on Aircraft and Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Gaseous Emissions at Airports

The purpose of this study is to analyze the concept of a hybrid apron with a fixed number of parking positions considering the management model influence for the average delay per aircraft and the gaseous emissions generated by aircraft and ground support equipment (GSE) altogether.The apron is studied based on two gate management models: in the fi

Advances in novel biomaterials combined with traditional Chinese medicine rehabilitation technology in treatment of peripheral nerve injury

Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) represent one of the primary neuropathies leading to lifelong disability.Nerve regeneration and targeted muscle atrophy stand as the two most crucial factors influencing functional rehabilitation post peripheral nerve injury.Over time, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) rehabilitation approaches such as acupuncture,
