In this study, physicians diagnosed a 3-year-old with scurvy due to severe vitamin C deficiency, influenced by a vegan diet and potential early-stage celiac disease; after treatment with vitamin C supplementation, her condition rapidly improved, highlighting the importance of dietary considerations in pediatric health.

This study found that mange-infected bare-nosed wombats have increased heat loss, higher metabolic rates, altered behavior, and disrupted fatty acid composition compared to healthy individuals.

This case report suggests that madarosis, or eyelash loss, may be associated with mitochondriopathy, expanding the known causes of madarosis to include this condition.
