Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). There a need have prospective data on the risk factors and outcomes of acute peritoneal dialysis (PD) neonates. The use replacement therapy this population compared older populations has been associated with worse (mortality rates 17–24%) along longer stay NICU and/or hospital. Methods: following multicentre, study was derived from TINKER (The Indian PCRRT-ICONIC Neonatal Kidney...
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant problem in neonates, but the evidence sparse. Neonatal AKI an independent risk factor for increased mortality and prolonged hospital stay. There are stark differences epidemiology of neonates amongst developing developed world. Increased prevalence neonatal sepsis, lack awareness about poor access to pediatric nephrologists add improper management countries. Methods: This study multicentric, national, prospective cohort [The Indian...
Abstract Background Fatalities in children left unattended parked motor vehicles are being reported frequently the last decade but little research has been done analysing circumstances leading to such preventable deaths India. Objectives To analyse fatalities Methods This study was a descriptive analysis conducted on basis of an Internet search published news major Indian newspapers/channels using different combination keywords. We extracted data from pre-determined tool. Results Between...
Sepsis is a leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity in low middle-income countries. We designed double-blinded randomised controlled trial intensive care unit (NICU) tertiary teaching hospital to determine the role intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) decreasing stay. Eighty neonates with clinical features sepsis were enrolled study placebo groups receive 500 mg/kg IVIG for three consecutive days or placebo. The primary outcome measure was duration stay days. babies both comparable...
IntroductionNeonatal acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant pathology associated with higher mortality rates, longer neonatal intensive care stay, and worse clinical outcomes.1Jetton J.G.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) is a highly infectious disease with many possible routes of transmission.Vertical transmission SARS CoV-2 still controversial.We report case vertical from an asymptomatic pregnant woman to her newborn baby who had completely course in India.
A rapid AKI risk assessment score would allow for improving management and outcomes. STARZ (Sethi, Tibrewal, Agrawal, Raina, waZir) was developed acute kidney injury (AKI) stratification of critically ill neonates. This is the first independent validation novel outside original enrolled centres.750 neonates were included in study. The calculated after 12 hours admission. Neonates admitted NICU receiving IV fluids at least 48 included.A total 8.8% had 7 days post duration hospital stay...
A female baby aged 6 months, born to non-consanguineous parents presented with anterior chest wall deformity since birth. On examination, an absent palpable sternum along paradoxical respiratory movements visible cardiac contractions and vasculature were seen beneath a thin layer of skin which led the diagnosis congenital absence (figure 1 video 1). The rest examination was found be normal no other obvious …
Background Immediate start of antiretroviral treatment (ART) among non-hospitalized outpatient children living with HIV may improve or worsen clinical outcomes due to immune reconstitution. Objective Role immediate versus post-stabilization in and youths on CD4 count viral load suppression. Methods This was a single blinded, randomized controlled trial conducted outpatients attending tertiary care hospital associated clinic North India. We enrolled ART-naive aged 18 months 21 years 1:1...
Cases of drowning at home unsupervised infants and toddlers in buckets have been reported elsewhere but little research on this largely preventable death India exists. We performed a descriptive analysis the basis Google search published news report leading Indian newspapers or channels. Data were collected employing pre-determined tool. Between April 2016 March 2022, we found 18 such cases. The large majority between 12 months age (12/18). This recognized source unintentional injury is...
Caffey disease is a rare and self-limiting condition characterised by cortical hyperostosis with inflammation of adjacent fascia muscles. It usually presents in infancy clinical features include hyperirritability, acute swelling overlying soft tissues subperiosteal new bone formation. Awareness the existence this its typical radiological profile will avoid unnecessary investigations treatment help physician to explain good prognosis parents affected children. We report three-month-old male...
Femoral shaft fractures following oil massage in newborns are very rare. We describe our observations at a tertiary centre northern India. Three such cases encountered during the study period from July 2014 to June 2019 were evaluated. Sociocultural details, neonatal illnesses, mode of delivery, history child abuse, type fracture and management recorded analysed. All patients had mid-shaft after forceful by caring grandmothers. They all complete union end four weeks. This case series shows...
Background/Objectives: The OSS is generally unique in relation to the proprietary programming. In improvement situation an absolute designer alternately aggregation for developers composes that source book primary rendition of product and makes it uninhibitedly accessible over those webs. At point other would welcome help existing code its next arrival. Settling on programming web permits around universe code, include new functionality, change submitting bug fixes current Previously, such a...
Zinc deficiency, common in children of developing countries, leads to susceptibility infections. Relapses nephrotic syndrome are precipitated mostly by Most morbidity and mortality patients is during range proteinuria. Management factors which reduce duration relapse, can decrease pediatric patients. We aimed study serum zinc levels, syndrome, at onset/relapse remission tried find out correlation between levels time achieve remission. Observational was conducted tertiary centre North India...
HIV infection is still a serious public health issue globally. Suboptimal vitamin D status highly prevalent in HIV-infected children and adolescents throughout the world.To evaluate outcome of supplementation on CD4 count with suboptimal status.Vitamin level were measured at enrolment. was defined as 25(OH)D < 30 ng/ml. Vitamin insufficiency deficiency 21-29 <20 ng/ml, respectively. Children levels supplemented D.This single-centre, non-randomized comparative study enrolling 50 eligible...
