ForwardScholarship in Progress is a virtual seminar series that provides opportunity for those engaged in child health in the areas of research, education and quality improvement to share their scholarly activity and promote interaction and opportunities among researchers and providers. Participants are exposed to ongoing activities in basic, translational and clinical research, educational development and quality improvements being performed by researchers and providers within pediatrics and child health.

- Enhance knowledge of the underlying mechanisms contributing to the development of Fontan-associated liver disease, including the effects of chronically elevated central venous pressure, reduced cardiac output, hepatic congestion, and altered hepatic perfusion. This goal includes understanding the progression from hepatic fibrosis to cirrhosis, associated complications such as portal hypertension, and the clinical challenges related to screening, monitoring, and long-term management of patients with Fontan circulation.
- Develop an understanding of how exercise influences hemodynamics, venous return, and hepatic blood flow in individuals with Fontan physiology. This includes examining the potential benefits of exercise in improving cardiovascular efficiency and functional capacity, as well as understanding potential risks or limitations related to hepatic congestion and liver disease progression. The goal is to better appreciate how exercise recommendations may influence both cardiac and hepatic outcomes in this population.
- Integrate understanding of FALD pathophysiology and exercise-related effects into clinical discussions, patient counseling, and multidisciplinary care planning. This includes recognizing the importance of individualized exercise recommendations, monitoring for liver-related complications, and collaborating with cardiology, hepatology, and rehabilitation teams to support long-term health and quality of life for patients with Fontan circulation.
- Develop a thorough understanding of the existing literature on unintentional ingestions in pediatric and adult populations, including trends, risk factors, clinical outcomes, and preventative strategies. This includes synthesizing findings from previous studies to identify knowledge gaps, inform best practices, and guide future research or educational initiatives aimed at reducing accidental exposures.
- Share the design, methodology, and preliminary results of the ongoing survey study on unintentional cannabis ingestions. Emphasize key insights regarding incidence, demographic patterns, contributing factors, and potential clinical implications. The goal is to foster discussion on how these findings may inform patient safety measures, clinical protocols, and public health interventions.
- Combine knowledge from prior studies and current research to provide evidence-based recommendations for education, prevention strategies, and clinical management of unintentional ingestions. This includes identifying effective ways to communicate risks to caregivers, implementing interventions to reduce exposures, and supporting informed policy or practice decisions within clinical and community settings.
