Bohn’s nodule is a soft white cyst filled with keratin and is often found in a newborn's oral cavity. This case has a high prevalence in newborns and is rarely seen in infants after three months.
In this case, we report our observation and evaluation of a Bohn’s nodule case in a seven-month-old male infant. Clinical diagnosis of the conditions is vital to avoid unnecessary therapeutic procedures and provide timely information for parents to manage the lesion.

OBJECTIVE:
The increasing survival rate of preterm infants has led to long-term complications associated with prematurity, such as oral feeding difficulties. The review aims to determine the effectiveness of early and easily administered premature infant oral motor intervention (PIOMI) among preterm infants 32 weeks and less admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, through a meta-analysis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Eligible studies were retrieved from six databases (PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, and International Clinical Registry Platform) and PIOMI website. These were screened based on established selection criteria. The statistical analysis was conducted using the STATA.
RESULTS:
A total of eight randomized-clinical trials, with 290 participants between 26 to 32 weeks gestational age, were included in the meta-analysis. The study suggested that PIOMI may reduce the transition from gavage to independent oral feeding by 2 days (SMD = –1.97, z = 4.33, p = 0.001, 95% CI = –2.86 to –1.08), increase weight gain by 810 g (SMD=0.81, z=3.45, p=0.001, 95% CI = 0.35 to 1.27), and shorten hospital stay, compared to the control group.
CONCLUSION
Preterm infant oral motor intervention (PIOMI) can be considered in NICUs to improve clinical outcomes of preterm infants 32 weeks gestational age or less.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the risk of adverse events in the clinical use of infant incubators of three kinds of national medical devices in Zhejiang Province.
METHODS:
Semi-quantitative matrix analysis was used to analyze the risk of adverse events related to incubator products in Zhejiang province from August 2018 to August 2019.
RESULTS:
Through the risk analysis of 213 cases of adverse events of infant incubator product, the risk point and degree of the product in practical clinical application were evaluated.
CONCLUSIONS
Through the evaluation results of the production enterprises, medical institutions put forward relevant recommendations to reduce the risk of product use to prevent the recurrence of serious adverse events in the use of the product and spread.
