Randomized Controlled Trial
The impact of the family-centered empowerment model on the children's quality of life with chemical burns and their parent's perceived stress.
Chemical burns are challenging for children and their families due to the unpleasant health consequences. Therefore, it is necessary to provide organized programs to support and educate families suffering child burns. This study aimed at determining the impact of the Family-Centered Empowerment Model (FCEM) on the quality of life of children with chemical burns and their parents' stress. ⋯ FCEM is an effective approach to reducing parental stress and improving the children's quality of life aged 1-12 years old suffered chemical burns. Therefore, it is suggested to consider the model care plan for this population.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Analysis of pelvic floor electromyography in women screened 42 days postpartum: A cross-sectional study.
To investigate the characteristics of pelvic floor surface electromyography parameters on the basis of Glazer assessment in women 42 days postpartum, and to analyze the predictive value of surface electromyography (sEMG) in postpartum stress urinary incontinence. This is a retrospective study. Three thousand twenty-nine females in total who were screened 42 days postpartum in Jinniu District Maternal and Children's Health Hospital of Chengdu from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected, and were randomly allocated into stress urinary incontinence (SUI) (n = 509) and the non-SUI group (n = 2520). ⋯ Among the sEMG parameters of the SUI group and the non-SUI group, the maximum EMG values in the fast-twitch phase (28.81 ± 14.41 vs 30.41 ± 15.15), the rising time in the fast-twitch phase (0.55 ± 0.36 vs 0.51 ± 0.30), and the Phase descent time (0.76 ± 0.76 vs 0.68 ± 0.65), mean slow-twitch phase EMG (17.82 ± 10.10 vs 19.69 ± 15.62), slow-twitch phase variability (0.28 ± 0.12 vs 0.26 ± 0.10), are statistically different (P < .05). In the SUI group, body mass index (estimated parameter = 0.029, P = .023), mean EMG during slow-twitch phase (estimated parameter = -0.013, P = .004) were relevant to stress urinary incontinence after delivery. The sEMG based on Glazer protocol indicates the activity of slow-twitch muscle fibers in SUI patients are decreased, and there is a correlation with the occurrence of stress urinary incontinence. sEMG can be applied as a quantitative evaluation tool of the pelvic floor analysis in postpartum SUI.

Community Health Workers in Early Childhood Well-Child Care for Medicaid-Insured Children: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
An intervention model (the Parent-focused Redesign for Encounters, Newborns to Toddlers; the PARENT intervention) for well-child care that integrates a community health worker into preventive care services may enhance early childhood well-child care. ⋯ The intervention resulted in improvements in the receipt of preventive care services vs usual care for children insured by Medicaid by incorporating community health workers in a team-based approach to early childhood well-child care.

Phase 3 Trial of Epicutaneous Immunotherapy in Toddlers with Peanut Allergy.
No approved treatment for peanut allergy exists for children younger than 4 years of age, and the efficacy and safety of epicutaneous immunotherapy with a peanut patch in toddlers with peanut allergy are unknown. ⋯ In this trial involving children 1 to 3 years of age with peanut allergy, epicutaneous immunotherapy for 12 months was superior to placebo in desensitizing children to peanuts and increasing the peanut dose that triggered allergic symptoms. (Funded by DBV Technologies; EPITOPE ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03211247.).

Oxycodone vs. tramadol in postoperative parent-controlled intravenous analgesia in children: a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, multiple-center clinical trial.
Management of acute postoperative pain is one of the major challenges in pediatric patients. Oral oxycodone has shown good pain relief in postoperative pain relief in children, but no studies have investigated intravenous oxycodone in this context. ⋯ an adequate postoperative analgesia can be achieved with intravenous oxycodone, this with less side effects than tramadol. It can therefore be a choice for postoperative pain relief in pediatric patients.
