PURPOSE: The study aimed to identify the prevalence of Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) signs exhibited in Palestinian school-age students while comparing their sociodemographic characteristics. DESIGN AND METHODS: A cross-sectional descriptive correlation study was conducted. The study included children aged 6-12 in West Bank schools, without a previous ADHD diagnoses or other neurodevelopmental disorders. This study used a parent questionnaire with three sections: child's sociodemographic data, parents' data, and Vanderbilt ADHD Diagnostic Parent Rating Scale (VADPRS), which has a Cronbach's alpha values of 0...

OBJECTIVE: Recently there has been an increase in pediatric neurosurgical fellowship graduates. It is important to understand the current pediatric neurosurgical workforce to help with prospective strategic workforce planning. The authors sought to determine 1) the geographic distribution and regional retention after training and 2) academic and leadership metrics by geographic location, era of training, and gender for practicing pediatric neurosurgeons in the United States. METHODS: Current practicing pediatric neurosurgeons were identified through American Board of Pediatric Neurological Surgery (ABPNS) certification status and the American Association of Neurological Surgeons directory...

OBJECTIVE: Determining the long-term success of endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) remains challenging. This study aimed to investigate the impact of clinical and radiological factors on ETV success in pediatric patients with hydrocephalus. METHODS: The study included patients < 18 years old with hydrocephalus who underwent ETV between March 2014 and May 2021. Data including patient age, gender, history of previous shunt surgery, previous external ventricular drain placement, intraventricular hemorrhage history, and postoperative meningitis were extracted from medical records...

Pediatric arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare but carry a risk of devastating neurological morbidity and mortality. Rupture of a cerebral AVM is the most common cause of spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage in children, with an unruptured AVM having an approximate hemorrhage risk of 2%-4% per year. The complex etiology of pediatric AVMs persists as an impediment to a comprehensive understanding of pathogenesis and subsequent targeted gene therapies. While AVMs secondary to vascular malformation syndromes have a clearer pathogenesis, a variety of gene mutations have been identified within sporadic AVM cases...

PURPOSE: Clear prognostic communication is associated with improvements in quality of life and suffering for children with advanced illness. Yet recent evidence demonstrates that pediatric oncologists often avoid, defer, or soften prognostic disclosure. We aimed to describe pediatric cancer shareholder perspectives on quality prognostic communication to inform design of an intervention to improve prognostic disclosure in advanced childhood cancer. METHODS: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a purposeful sample of pediatric patients with cancer (n = 20), parents (n = 20), and oncologists (n = 20) representing six institutions across five states...

This paper presents a narrative review protocol to explore how the proportion of child-specific content of pre-registration programmes in universities impact upon newly qualified nurses' perceptions of preparedness to care for children, young people (CYP), and their families. The preparation and education to become a nurse who cares for children and young people differs from country to country. Providers of pre-registration nurse education offer routes into nursing from diploma to degree and in some countries post-graduate routes...

INTRODUCTION: In children requiring venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for long durations, conversion to venovenous (VV) support may be advantageous. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of conversion from VA to VV ECMO. METHODS: This is a retrospective review of all children who underwent conversion from VA to VV ECMO at a single institution, from 2015 to 2022. Indications for and methods of conversion were examined as well as adverse events including re-operation, ischemic complications, renal failure, and mortality...

CASE: This case demonstrates a 2-year-old boy with a rare benign supraclavicular mass diagnosed as neuromuscular choristoma through open biopsy. Postoperatively, he underwent semiannual surveillance with ultrasound without development of neurological complaints, limb deformity, or recurrence at 2-year follow-up. CONCLUSION: Neuromuscular choristoma involving the brachial plexus is a rare tumor that should be in the differential diagnosis of pediatric peripheral nerve-based tumors...

Inflammatory syndromes, including those caused by infection, are a major cause of hospital admissions among children and are often misdiagnosed because of a lack of advanced molecular diagnostic tools. In this study, we explored the utility of circulating cell-free RNA (cfRNA) in plasma as an analyte for the differential diagnosis and characterization of pediatric inflammatory syndromes. We profiled cfRNA in 370 plasma samples from pediatric patients with a range of inflammatory conditions, including Kawasaki disease (KD), multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), viral infections, and bacterial infections...

INTRODUCTION: Children of key population individuals (CPK) often face the same stigma and discrimination as their parents, limiting their access to HIV services. The Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control project analyzed pediatric HIV testing data from project-supported sites to better understand risk among CKP and improve comprehensive prevention, testing, and treatment for KP families. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of routine program data collected October 1, 2021-September 30, 2022, in project-supported sites in Burundi, Côte d'Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania, and Togo...

Microaggressions in health care occur frequently and negatively impact the well-being of trainees. High-realism simulation can effectively train health care providers to communicate in emotionally difficult situations. In 2023, we developed and piloted 4 simulation scenarios for pediatric residents centered on addressing microaggressions in the clinical environment that built on an existing didactic curriculum. These scenarios included single and intersecting forms of oppression including racism, sexism, ableism, ethnocentrism, and weight bias...

Congenital posteromedial bowing of the tibia is a rare structural deformity of the lower extremity. This severe deformity may be discovered on ultrasound prenatally but is more commonly evident immediately after birth. Prognostically, congenital posteromedial bowing of the tibia ranges from a self-resolving condition to the development of a significant limb-length discrepancy with functional deficits. This condition can be treated conservatively but may require surgical correction in adolescence or at skeletal maturity...
