Abstract The most recognized route for authors to get their articles disseminated is through journals, which are then subscribed to by individuals and/or organizations who pay for these subscriptions. These subscriptions cover the cost of reviewing, editing, publishing, and archiving articles. Once a manuscript is accepted and published, authors usually give copyright ownership for their work to the publisher. Shortly after publishers moved to electronic formats and access, the era of “open access” journals began. Although there are different models of open access, the basic model, which allows anyone to read, download, and print articles freely, uses a different method to finance publication of articles. Rather than subscription based, authors pay for the cost of the publishers reviewing, editing, publishing, and archiving their manuscripts—which is practiced by both scholarly and predatory publishers. The primary purpose of scholarly publishing is to advance science, technology, and medicine; the purpose of predatory publishers is less ethical and more monetarily driven. Although knowledge of predatory practices is growing, many authors are unfamiliar with this, do not realize the consequences, and do not know how to recognize a predatory publisher. This has consequences to them professionally but, within health care, also has negative consequences to research, practice, and patient care. This article will briefly cover what the major differences between scholarly and predatory publications are, what impact they could have, and how to identify them for both researchers and authors.

Abstract Spina bifida (SB) is a birth defect involving the neural tube of the spine. The severity of the condition depends on the extent of the defect. The most severe cases of SB are debilitating and can significantly affect the quality of life of babies born with the defect. Complications of SB can include mobility issues, orthopedic abnormalities, elimination impairments, infections, cognitive delays, and frequent hospitalizations, and these can span the lifetime of the child. The complications and needs associated with SB become very specific as the child reaches adulthood. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately one in every 2,758 babies born annually in the United States are diagnosed with SB. Learning that a child will be born with a birth defect can be devastating for parents. Several decisions need to be made at birth and as the child grows. Many parents facing such news are overwhelmed and experience a range of emotions. The needs of parents caring for children with SB will vary based on their understanding of the disease process, ability to access resources, availability of a support system, and the capacity to cope with the challenges that arise when caring for a child born with this condition. Nurses must be diligent in exploring the needs of this parent population. This article is intended to raise awareness among nurses regarding parental needs so that they can support and assist parents in developing more effective ways to navigate through their journey.

Abstract Malignant mesotheliomas are aggressive neoplasms, which are rare, especially in the pediatric population. Unlike malignant mesotheliomas most commonly seen in adults, those of the peritoneum and testicle in children do not appear to be as strongly associated with direct asbestos exposure and have an unpredictable biologic behavior requiring individual treatment strategies. There may, however, be an association between children with malignant mesothelioma and asbestos-exposed household members. Herein, we report a very rare case of a 15-year-old male adolescent who presented with testicular pain, redness, and swelling and was found to have testicular malignant mesothelioma with retroperitoneal nodal and peritoneal metastases.

Abstract Moyamoya disease is a rare disease that causes progressive narrowing of the intracranial internal carotid arteries, resulting in reduced blood supply to the brain, leading to strokes. It is a major cause of childhood stroke. A 10-year-old boy presented with recurrent left-hemispheric transient ischemic attack and seizures. On evaluation, the child was diagnosed as having bilateral moyamoya disease. The child was prescribed antiplatelets and antiepileptics and advised to drink 2 liters of water a day and to avoid dehydration. He was admitted for an elective revascularization surgery. Left-side superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass with encephaloduroarteriomyosynangiosis was done. The child was monitored in the postoperative neurosurgery intensive care unit for 1 day for any postprocedure complications. Postoperative course was uneventful, and the child was discharged on the sixth postoperative day with instruction to continue antiplatelets and antiseizure medications. The outcome of cerebral revascularization in moyamoya disease is good, with reduction in ischemic events and seizures. Postoperative nursing care in neurosurgery units is important in preventing complications and achieving better outcomes.

Abstract Male circumcision originated as a covenant of God with Abraham in biblical times. This practice is rooted in the Jewish and Islamic religions as both claim ancestry with Abraham. Although neonatal male circumcision was mostly performed in these cultures, it became a common practice in the United States in the 1800s. As this is not medically necessary, the frequency of male circumcision is decreasing in some parts of the world, although circumcision in older men is increasing because of the health benefits reported. Although there are several techniques to perform the procedure, pain management during and after the procedure is important. The nurse must ensure that the infant is the right candidate for the procedure, support the parental decision, and monitor the infant for any complications. Research around male circumcision on the long-term effects, reduction of complications, and economic and health benefits earlier in life may be important.

Abstract Children diagnosed with cancer today can expect a greater than 80% chance of 5-year survival. Childhood cancer survivors are significantly more likely to be infertile or have difficulty getting pregnant than their siblings. Studies have shown that infertility is one of the primary concerns of cancer survivors. Fertility preservation (FP) completed before treatment starts gives the patient the best fertility potential for a biological child in the future. Infertility is a significant risk factor for those treated with gonadotoxic therapy for cancer in childhood or adolescence. Infertility risk counseling and FP procedures may have the greatest success of fertility and hormone restoration if performed before the initiation of gonadotoxic therapy. A single-institution retrospective chart review was completed of patients enrolled in an institutional-review-board-approved ovarian tissue cryopreservation protocol from 2011 to 2019. Data collected include demographics and the timing of various stages of the FP process. One hundred five patients were included in this chart review (58 prepubertal and 47 postpubertal). Most consult requests were from the solid tumor diagnosis group. The time from diagnosis to consultation was 18 days, the time from consult to ovarian tissue cryopreservation surgery was 7 days, and the time from surgery to treatment was 5 days. Further investigation of time to consult revealed timing was justified in most patient situations. Workflow, education, and outreach were established. Future analyses will include defining the incidents and efficiencies in providing fertility and hormone consultations in female and male patients who do not undergo FP procedures.
