In this study of privately-insured families, hospitalization was associated with insurance coverage disruption for children and caregivers 6 months post-hospitalization vs non-hospitalized.

ALT Visual abstract summarizing a study on insurance coverage disruption after pediatric hospitalization. Six months after hospitalization, children who were hospitalized had higher rates of insurance disruption than non-hospitalized children (17.0% vs 15.6%). Caregivers of hospitalized children also had higher disruption rates than caregivers of non-hospitalized children (16.5% vs 15.5%). Disruption was more common among families with longer hospital stays and those with only one caregiver on the insurance plan.

Every second matters in a cardiac emergency. ❤️
@MottDocs pediatric cardiologist Dr. Jeff Zampi shows how anyone can use an automated external defibrillator (AED) to help.

A new study, led by U-M researcher Dr. Sriram Venneti @vennetilab, has found that a specific molecule called itaconate drives the development of ependymomas, the third-most common type of brain tumor in children.

Proud of our neurosurgery resident Luke McVeigh, who presented at the 2025 @PedsSection meeting.
His work on tonsil position in tethered cord challenges long-held assumptions about a strong Chiari–TCS link.
Thoughtful, evidence-based research.
