Labour Market Position

In my review of the literature, I aim to present the roles that men play in caring for their young children in the US. On weekdays, the father continues to be primarily a breadwinner, while the image of a fully involved “new father” appears mainly at the weekends. Men are primarily involved in activities that are related to free time and direct interaction to their children. The father’s role in childcare can be influenced by individual social and economic status, such as income, education, labour market position and available time; and also, by his attitude to different gender roles, value priorities and religiosity.

Novel Applications

Since its initial approval in 1989 by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of blepharospasm and other facial spasms, botulinum toxin (BoNT) has evolved into a therapeutic modality for a variety of neurological and non-neurological disorders. With respect to neurologic movement disorders, BoNT has been reported to be effective for the treatment of dystonia, bruxism, tremors, tics, myoclonus, restless legs syndrome, tardive dyskinesia, and a variety of symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease. More recently, research with BoNT has expanded beyond its use as a powerful muscle relaxant and a peripherally active drug to its potential central nervous system applications in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. Although BoNT is the most potent biologic toxin, when it is administered by knowledgeable and experienced clinicians, it is one of the safest therapeutic agents in clinical use. The primary aim of this article is to provide an update on recent advances in BoNT research with a focus on novel applications in the treatment of movement disorders. This comprehensive review of the literature provides a critical review of evidence-based clinical trials and highlights recent innovative pilot studies.

Abstract Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is an often neglected but crucial element of clinical nephrology. The aim of the Nephrology Public Policy Committee (NPPC) of the European Renal Association – European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) is to promote several key aspects of European nephrology. One of the targets proposed by NPPC was to advance European nephrology involvement in AKI. We undertook literature analyses to define the current position of European nephrology in the field of AKI compared to other regions, and about how different European countries compare to each other. It appeared that vis-à-vis countries with a comparable socio-economic status (the US, Australia, New Zealand, Canada), the European contribution was almost 50% lower. Within Europe, Central/Eastern Europe and countries with a lower gross domestic product (GDP) showed lower scientific output. Nephrologists contributed to less than half of the output. There was no trend for a change over the last decade. It is concluded that there is room to improve the contribution of European nephrology in the field of AKI. We propose a model on how to promote clinical collaboration on AKI across Europe, the creation of a pan-European nephrology network of interested units is proposed, to improve clinical outcomes, increase nephrologist involvement and awareness outside nephrology, and stimulate research on AKI in Europe. Accordingly, we also propose a list of research priorities and stress the need for more European funding of AKI research.

Metaphyseal Region

Nonossifying fibroma is a benign, lytic lesion that occurs in young children and adolescents. Radiographically, the lesion is multilocular and sharply demarcated. It often occurs at the metaphyseal region of long bones of the lower extremity and is usually eccentrically located. Four cases of nonossifying fibroma occurring during the past 7 years are presented with a review of the literature.

Malignant Changes

A brief review of the literature referring to intrathoracic nerve tumors in children is presented. The neurogenic tumors have an expected incidence of malignancy of about 40%. Four case histories are reported in which neurogenic tumors of the posterior mediastinum were removed with apparent cure. Only one of these children had objective or subjective signs which could be attributed to their neoplasms. All of the neoplasms were benign. Prompt thoracotomy is advocated in the child with a suspected neurogenic tumor of the mediastinum. Periods of observation, procrastination and roentgen therapy are to be condemned for it is impossible to predict with any degree of certainty which tumor will or already has undergone malignant changes. A brief discussion of the operative management and complications is presented.

Formal Childcare

Does more childcare stimulate mothers to re-enter the labour market? Does more childcare stimulate mothers to re-enter the labour market? Previous research has shown that the supply of formal childcare facilities has a positive effect on the labour market participation of mothers with young children. When the supply of childcare facilities is higher, the probability that a female keeps on working after the birth of a child is larger. But does childcare also helps non-working mothers to join the labour force? This research shows that it is not the case. The research was carried out on administrative panel data to which data on the regional supply of childcare and the regional demand for labour were matched. It shows that the supply of childcare does not play a significant role in the re-entry in the labour market of mothers. The age of the child and the demand for labour in the region play an important role.

Umbilical Polyp

THE PURPOSE of this paper is to report a recent case of an umbilical polyp and intestinal obstruction during the neonatal period. Umbilical polyps are rare. When present, they may be associated with Meckel's diverticulum because both are remnants of the omphalomesenteric duct. The presence of the visible polyp may give an external clue to otherwise obscure intraabdominal symptoms. A review of the literature earlier than 1916 is well summarized in a book by Thomas Cullen. This unusual volume lists six cases of umbilical polyp accompanied by other pathologic complications of Meckel's diverticulum. This author stressed that in these cases it should be pointed out to either the patient or his parents that possible intra-abdominal duct remnants may, at any time, give rise to symptoms such as intestinal obstruction. Penberthy and Benson reported a 9-year-old male with an umbilical polyp which had been present since birth and was without discharge. This youngster died following operation for intestinal obstruction due to volvulus about the diverticulum and its fibrous connection with the umbilical polyp. These authors pleaded for early elective operations in these cases prior to such complications. Gross gave other reasons for observation, and exploration at a reasonably early age, if a Meckel's diverticulum is suspected. Peritonitis from a ruptured Meckel's diverticulum is peculiarly dangerous; in young children the protecting omentum is inadequate and the migrating nature of the anomaly adds to the danger. Fluid from perforation of a diverticulum is usually of greater volume than that found in appendiceal rupture and abscess.
