AIM: To examine the effect of probiotic administration on the incidence of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm infants. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study examining the incidence of NEC in a cohort of infants that received probiotics compared to those that had not, over an 18-year period in a single centre. Infants were included if they were born <32 weeks' gestation with birthweight <1500 g and survived beyond 72 h...

AIMS: Despite the declining incidence of acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN) in Australia, there is still a significant burden of disease amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Northern Territory. Childhood APSGN has been highlighted as a predictor of chronic kidney disease in this population. We aimed to describe clinical characteristics and outcomes of hospitalised children with APSGN in the Northern Territory. METHODS: Single-centre, retrospective cohort study of children (<18 years) with APSGN admitted to a tertiary hospital in the Top End of the Northern Territory between January 2012 and December 2017...

AIM: Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander children in rural/remote areas suffer high rates of persistent otitis media (OM) from early infancy. We aimed to determine the proportion of Aboriginal infants living in an urban area who have OM and investigate associated risk factors. METHODS: Between 2017 and 2020, the Djaalinj Waakinj cohort study enrolled 125 Aboriginal infants at 0-12 weeks of age in the Perth South Metropolitan region, Western Australia...

AIM: Uptake of COVID-19 vaccines for children aged 5-11 years old in Australia has plateaued. Persuasive messaging is an efficient and adaptable potential intervention to promote vaccine uptake, but evidence for its effectiveness is varied and dependent on context and cultural values. This study aimed to test persuasive messages to promote COVID-19 vaccines for children in Australia. METHODS: A parallel, online, randomised control experiment was conducted between 14 and 21 January 2022...

AIM: High-risk neonates are retrieved from regional centres to tertiary neonatal units when the required care of the baby exceeds the clinical capabilities of the birthing facility. However, there is limited research on the outcomes of neonatal retrievals from regional special care centres and the barriers to back transfer of neonates from a tertiary centre are not well established. This study aimed to review the outcome of neonatal retrievals >32 weeks gestation from a regional referral centre...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
Charles Oberg, Jeffrey Goldhagen, Nicholas Spencer
Civilian casualties from armed conflicts have increased, such that 90% of deaths from armed conflicts in the first decade of the 21st century have been civilians, a significant number of whom are children. The acute and chronic effects of armed conflict on child health and well-being are among the most significant children's rights violations of the 21st century. Children are increasingly exposed to armed conflict and targeted by governmental and non-governmental combatants. Despite International Human Rights and Humanitarian laws and multiple international declarations, conventions, treaties and courts, injury and death of children due to armed conflicts have worsened over the decades...

AIM: We describe the association of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and feeding and eating disorders (FED) in five patients admitted to our third level centre for both FED and NF1. METHODS: Case series of five adolescent females with NF1 treated for FED. RESULTS: We collected data from five patients with NF1 aged between 14 and 22 years, all females. The onset of eating disorder symptoms occurred between 13 and 19 years of age and was characterised by food intake restriction, associated with physical hyperactivity in three out of five cases...

AIM: To assess the association between obesity and problems in peer relations in children (4-15 years) in a large (n = 11 279), nationally representative data set. METHODS: The chi-square test was used to compare differences in numbers of children with and without obesity and with and without abnormal peer problem scores. Then multivariable logistic regression was used to determine any association between obesity and peer problems after accounting for deprivation and life-style factors...

AIM: Cardiovascular involvement is common among children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) and can cause shock and death. In this study, we evaluated the early and long-term cardiac effects of MIS-C. METHODS: In this observational cohort study, we included all children treated for MIS-C from October 2020 to November 2021 in the Department of Paediatric Infectious Disease at Cukurova University School of Medicine Hospital. The patients underwent serial echocardiographical evaluation during hospitalisation and at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after discharge...

AIM: The aetiology of perinatal stroke is poorly understood. This study aimed to prospectively confirm the risk factors and identify any previously unknown variables. METHODS: A prospective case-control study was conducted in Australia. Univariate odds ratios (ORs), associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and multivariable logistic regression models fitted with backwards stepwise variable selection were used. RESULTS: Sixty perinatal stroke cases reported between 2017 and 2019 included 95% (57/60) with multiple risk factors...

AIMS: As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) maintains its importance in the differential diagnosis of common febrile diseases. MIS-C should be promptly diagnosed because corticosteroid and/or intravenous immunoglobulin treatment can prevent severe clinical outcomes. In this study, we aimed to evaluate clinical presentation, diagnostic parameters and management of MIS-C and compare its clinical features to those of common febrile disease...

AIM: This randomised-controlled trial aims to examine the effect of regional massage performed before blood collection on pain and vital signs in term newborns. METHODS: The study sample consisted of a total of 96 term newborns, 49 in the experimental group and 47 in the control group, in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Before the blood collection process, those in the experimental group received two (2) minutes of massage on their blood collection region, and their pain levels and vital signs were observed...
