The pathophysiology of multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS) in children (MIS-C) is unknown. It occurs several weeks after COVID-19 infection or exposure; however, MIS rarely reported vaccination, and cases are mostly adults. Herein, we present a 12-year-old male who had no prior exposure developed MIS-C his first dose mRNA vaccine.
Abstract Background Kawasaki disease (KD) may cause cardiac and coronary complications. Since definite markers to accurately predict involvement is not present, we aimed analyze the role of hematological indices [neutrophil-to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to (PLR), lymphocyte-to monocyte (LMR), mean platelet volume (MPV)-to (MPVLR)], prognostic nutritional index (PNI) systemic immune-inflammation (SII) in predicting KD. Patients The medical records 134 KD patients admitted between...
Aim Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection may result in a life‐threatening hyperinflammatory condition named multisystem inflammatory children (MIS‐C).

Introduction According to the 2020 CDC criteria, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) due Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) is diagnosed when all of following criteria are met: fever for+≥+24 hours, laboratory evidence inflammation, (+≥+2) organ involvement, SARS-CoV-2 infection or exposure, and no alternative plausible diagnoses (CDC, 2020). Alternative diagnosis need be excluded before coming upon an MIS-C since there plenty infectious diseases that may mimic (Dworsky et...
Abstract Background Enteroviruses (EV) are most common causes of the etiologically known aseptic meningitis in children. EV can be detected with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. We aimed to evaluate clinical and laboratory characteristics children diagnosed PCR-confirmed CSF Patients aged 1 month 17 years who underwent lumbar puncture (LP) suspected had viral PCR culture results between September 2012 January 2021 at a tertiary care hospital Turkey were...
