It was observed that in early 2018, several newspapers raised a concern about the negative effects of social media applications, such as Snapchat and Instagram, on users related to the choice of plastic surgeries. Several plastic surgeons have shared their experiences whereby they encountered requests sounding similar to what a "filtered" Snapchat picture would look like, with one plastic surgeon even having a patient who actually produced a "filtered" image. There are several red flags to look out for in such patients, and proper management in those cases should include counseling and not plastic surgery.

Kawasaki disease is an acute systemic vasculitis that was first reported in 1961. Over the last 5 decades multiple papers have been published to further understand this disease. The diagnosis of Kawasaki disease is made based on the clinical findings. Atypical Kawasaki disease includes patients who do not meet all the criteria for diagnosis. The main complication of Kawasaki disease is coronary aneurysm, and the treatment is intravenous immunoglobulin and aspirin. A second dose of immunoglobulin is given if the patient does not improve, and several other treatment options have been proposed over the last few years as second and third line options.

Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arthropod-borne virus that was first isolated in 1947. Since then, multiple outbreaks of ZIKV have been reported in different countries. It is transmitted mostly by Aedes mosquitoes, and the symptoms of fever, joint pain, red eyes, headache, and maculopapular rash closely resemble chikungunya and dengue. The most severe complications of ZIKV infection include the risk of microcephaly and other congenital brain anomalies in infected pregnant women. It is a condition that can be easily prevented with proper education. In this review, we focussed on different aspects of the recent outbreaks of Zika virus disease, including its epidemiological background, transmission routes, presentation, as well as diagnosis and prevention.

OBJECTIVES: To provide an estimate on the most recent burden of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) in the United States. METHODS: The 2016 Kids’ Inpatient Database, provided by the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and its partners, was used to identify patients with NAS in the United States. The data consisted of pediatric admissions from 4200 US hospitals recorded between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2016. Data were converted to weighted form to project a national estimate on the possible number of neonates affected by NAS. Differences in sex, race, location, household income, primary payer form, length of stay, and total charges were studied. RESULTS: The sample contained 32 128 patients with NAS (0.8%), among whom 17 164 (53.5%) were boys and 14 935 (46.5%) were girls (P < .001); 23 027 (80.4%) were white (P < .001), and 13 583 (42.3%) were from the southern parts of the United States (P < .001). Medicaid covered 83.8% of patients, and 40.2% had an income within the first quartile of national averages (P < .001). The overall mean and median length of stay were 16.45 and 12.00 days, respectively, and the mean and median total charges were calculated as $79 937.75 and $38 537.00, respectively. The total charges of NAS were $2 549 098 822. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of NAS is on a constant rise; the number of cases rose from 21 732 in 2012 to 32 128 in 2016. Hospital charges have also tripled over the last 7 years to $2.5 billion in 2016.
