Prealbumin and IGF-1 Levels in Pediatric Chronic Cholestasis With Severe Malnutrition After Nutrition Therapy

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a high-energy liquid diet improves the nutritional status of children with chronic cholestasis (a liver condition that blocks bile flow). Researchers want to see if this diet helps children who are malnourished. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Does the liquid diet raise the level of prealbumin (a marker of nutrition) in the blood? * Does the liquid diet raise the level of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) (a hormone that helps growth) in the blood? Participants will: * Consume a high-energy liquid diet for 14 days. * Give blood samples at the start and at the end of the 2-week study. * Keep a daily record of what they eat and drink in a food diary. Researchers will compare the blood test results from the start and the end of the study to see if the liquid diet works to improve the children's prealbumin and IGF-1 levels. This study is important to help children with liver problems grow better and stay healthy.

Enhancing Pediatric Acute Care Through Adaptive E-Learning and In-Person Skills Practice in Tanzania

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the integration of in-person skills practice (ISP) with an adaptive e-learning platform can improve refresher learning progress (RLP) among healthcare providers in pediatric care settings in Tanzania. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can healthcare providers who participate in ISP sessions facilitated by clinical champions achieve greater improvements in refresher learning progress (RLP)? Will providers in the intervention group demonstrate improved metacognition and practical skill performance compared to those in the control group? Researchers will compare healthcare providers using the ISP digital platform (Rhapsode Capable™) to providers using paper-based ISP to see if the digital platform results in significantly higher RLP and fewer skill-based errors. Participants will: Complete adaptive e-learning modules focused on pediatric care topics (e.g., newborn resuscitation, severe malnutrition). Participate in ISP sessions where clinical champions provide feedback and assess performance.
