INTRODUCTION: Neonatal illnesses can prove to be fatal if not identified early and treated. This suggests that death occasioned as result of neonatal illness could be prevented. However, it has been observed that most mothers report to the hospital late with their newborns in critical state, making it difficult for professionals to salvage the problem often than not. This study sought to explore the knowledge and practices of home caregivers on neonatal danger signs pre-admission to Tamale Teaching Hospital a tertiary hospital in northern Ghana...

BACKGROUND: Prematurity is associated with increased risk for morbidity and mortality. Aim of this study was to evaluate whether cerebral oxygenation during fetal-to-neonatal transition period was associated with long-term outcome in very preterm neonates. METHODS: Preterm neonates ≤ 32 weeks of gestation and/or ≤ 1500 g with measurements of cerebral regional oxygen saturation (crSO2 ) and cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE) within the first 15 min after birth were analysed retrospectively...

BACKGROUND: Hepatoblastoma is the most common primary malignancy of hepatic origin in children, with an estimated incidence of 0.5-1.5 per million children. Hepatoblastoma classically has an intraparenchymal location, and pedunculated hepatoblastoma is a relatively rare entity. Accurate diagnosis can be challenging due to its extrahepatic location and possibly its thin peduncle, which is not easily identified in imaging. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we report a case of asymptomatic giant palpable hepatoblastoma in the LUQ of a four-month-old male infant, initially suspected of neuroblastoma based on abdominal ultrasound findings...

BACKGROUND: Asthma is the most common chronic disease in children. Asthma can lead to sleep disorders and psychiatric issues, which are often accompanied by urinary incontinence in children. Furthermore, several studies have shown a relationship between allergic diseases and urinary incontinence. This study aims to examine the association between asthma and non-neurogenic urinary incontinence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This case-control study included 314 children over three years old referred to Amir Kabir Hospital; 157 with asthma and 157 without asthma...

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate whether mucous fistula refeeding (MFR) is safe and beneficial for the growth and intestinal adaptation of preterm infants with enterostomies. METHODS: This exploratory randomized controlled trial enrolled infants born before 35 weeks' gestation with enterostomy. If the stomal output was ≥ 40 mL/kg/day, infants were assigned to the high-output MFR group and received MFR. If the stoma output was < 40 mL/kg/day, infants were randomized to the normal-output MFR group or the control group...

BACKGROUND: Dyslipidemia, especially hypercholesterolemia is of significant clinical interest. Precise diagnosis is not paid enough attention to about the management of pediatric patients with hypercholesterolemia, which is especially apparent in China. Given this, we designed this study to confirm the specific molecular defects associated with hypercholesterolemia using whole-exome sequencing (WES) to be helpful for precise diagnosis and treatment. METHODS: Pediatric patients were enrolled using specific criteria and their clinical information were recorded for later evaluation in conjunction with the WES completed for each of these patients...

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness of nitric oxide (NO) in reducing the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains debatable. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to guide clinical decision-making regarding the significance of inhaled NO (iNO) on the potential occurrence and outcomes of BPD in premature infants. METHODS: Data from clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Wanfang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Chinese Scientific Journal Database VIP databases for premature infants were searched from inception to March 2022...

BACKGROUND: Transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN), which is the most common respiratory disease in the neonatal period, increases respiratory workload in newborns. We purposed to evaluate the oxidative stress (OS) status and thiol disulfide hemostasis in late preterm and term newborns with TTN in this study. METHODS: The study was carried out in a single-centre neonatal intensive care unit to investigate the effect of continuous airway positive pressure (CPAP) on the oxidative system in newborns with TTN...

BACKGROUND: To examine the use of abdominal ultrasound (AUS) as a diagnostic adjunct in the diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in cases where abdominal radiography (AXR) is equivocal in order to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use in neonates. METHODS: Retrospective study (2017-2019) of infants undergoing NEC evaluation with equivocal AXR findings (n = 54). Paired AXR and AUS were reviewed with respect to presence or absence of pneumatosis. Concordance of AUS findings with decision to treat for NEC was evaluated...

BACKGROUND: Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused due to pathogenic variants in the SUMF1 gene. The SUMF1 gene encodes for formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) that is involved in the catalytic activation of the family of sulfatases. The affected patients present with a wide spectrum of clinical features including multi-organ involvement. To date, almost 140 cases of MSD have been reported worldwide, with only four cases reported from India. The present study describes two cases of late infantile form of MSD from India and the identification of a novel missense variant in the SUMF1 gene...

BACKGROUND: Many children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) don't meet the recommended levels of physical activity. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) have a key role in supporting and encouraging children and adolescents with T1DM to be physically active. This study aims to understand the perspectives of HCPs in relation to supporting physical activity and implementing guidelines relating to physical activity. METHODS: An online mixed methods survey was circulated to HCPs in pediatric diabetes units in England and Wales...

BACKGROUND: There is consistent evidence that the COVID-19 pandemic is associated with an increased psychosocial burden on children and adolescents and their parents. Relatively little is known about its particular impact on high-risk groups with chronic physical health conditions (CCs). Therefore, the primary aim of the study is to analyze the multiple impacts on health care and psychosocial well-being on these children and adolescents and their parents.

BACKGROUND: All families experience financial and time costs related to caring for their children's health. Understanding the economic burden faced by families of children with chronic health conditions (CHC) is crucial for designing effective policies to support families.

BACKGROUND: Physical activity (PA) development in toddlers (age 1 and 2 years) is not well understood, partly because of a lack of analytic tools for accelerometer-based data processing that can accurately evaluate PA among toddlers. This has led to a knowledge gap regarding how parenting practices around PA, mothers' PA level, mothers' parenting stress, and child developmental and behavioral problems influence PA development in early childhood. METHODS: The Child and Mother Physical Activity Study is a longitudinal study to observe PA development in toddlerhood and examine the influence of personal and parental characteristics on PA development...
