Can exclusive breastfeeding until six months of age maintain optimum iron status in term babies? We evaluated exclusively breastfed infants relation to breast milk and lactoferrin.In this prospective study Delhi, India, during the period 2003-2004 normally delivered babies non-anemic [(Hemoglobin (Hb) = 11 g/dl, n 68] anemic (Hb 7 - 10.9 61) mothers were followed 6 age. Iron parameters measured cord blood at 14 weeks months. Breast lactoferrin same intervals.Iron both groups within normal...
Children with sickle cell disease have a very high risk of lifelong neurologic morbidity and mortality. Cerebrovascular accidents are known complication in children disease. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is constellation acute findings increasingly recognized pediatric critical care population evidence vasogenic edema on brain imaging possibly due to cerebral vascular endothelial dysfunction. This report, for the first time, describes young adult who developed posterior...
Sir, A 12-year-old asymptomatic boy was referred for assessment with a history of heart murmur noted at 2 years age but subsequently lost to follow-up. Physical examination showed normal growth and development an unremarkable cardiorespiratory exam. He had participated in multiple sports no shortness breath, chest pain, or syncope. An echocardiogram lack bifurcation the main pulmonary artery smooth continuation into right (RPA), mild hypoplasia left (LPA) measuring 7 mm diameter, caliber RPA...
B ’ syndrome (BS) is a multisystem, human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-associated vasculitis of unknown origin which was initially described as triad recurrent oral and genital ulceration relapsing iritis [1–3]. The diagnosis still based primarily on clinical criteria. It has subsequently been shown to occur most commonly in the countries along historical ‘silk route’ [4] from far east Mediterranean. To our knowledge, there are two reports about BS sub-Saharan Africa, one describing five...
Mouse allergen (MA) exposure is a well-known risk factor for allergic sensitization and implicated in the pathogenesis of pediatric asthma. Although previous studies report high prevalence MA inner-city asthmatic children, no data exist on its comparison with either suburban or rural children We did retrospective cohort study by chart review all (≤18 years age) who underwent allergy testing during 6-month period tertiary care referral center. Patients were divided geographically into...
Myocardial fibrosis is associated with adverse events in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. Cardiac MRI late gadolinium enhancement can detect myocardial fibrosis. We evaluated the conditional survival of children and adolescents based on native T1 mapping (combined proton signal from myocytes interstitium prior to contrast administration by measurement blood relaxation time) as a means assess This retrospective case-cohort over 3-year period included all consecutive patients (aged ≤ 21...

Introduction: Myocardial dysfunction has not been evaluated in children with septic shock despite the assumption that it is a significant determinant of outcome when compared to adults. Hypothesis: Its prevalence adults 40-60%, but its known. Methods: Thirty patients fluid refractory were prospectively studied by echo <24 hours after admission pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Evaluation included measures left ventricular (LV) size and function, mitral valve (MV) inflow velocities early...
Case Reports: Lactic acidosis (LA) is associated with mortality in children admitted to the intensive care unit. An 18 year old male came emergency department extremus severe bronchospasm, poor air entry and desaturation. Following emergent endotracheal intubation his examination revealed equal breath sounds diffuse wheezing, tachycardia normal perfusion. Arterial blood gas showed mixed respiratory LA pH 7.09, pCO2 65 mmHg, pO2 406 base excess -9 mmol/L, lactate 4 co-oximetry saturation 98%,...
