Background and Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to significant changes globally, which also affected patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). This study aimed determine the incidence of T1DM characteristics diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) during comparing it pre-pandemic period. Materials Methods: Data from <19 years newly diagnosed between 1st January 2017 31st December 2021 four regional centers in Vojvodina were retrospectively collected analyzed. Results: In 2021, highest last...
False-positive blood cultures findings may lead to a falsely increased morbidity and hospital costs.The survey was conducted as retrospective - prospective study included 239 preterm infants (born before 37 weeks of gestation) who were treated in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Institute for Child Youth Health Vojvodina during one year (January 1st, 2012 December 31st, 2012). The part the focused on examination incidence neonatal sepsis determination risk factors. In sub-divided into two...
Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes are a group of autosomal recessive hereditary disorders characterized by reduction the amount mitochondrial in affected tissue (muscle, liver, brain, or kidneys). We report case an infant with myopathy, deafness, peripheral neuropathy, nephrocalcinosis, proximal renal tubulopathy, moderate lactic acidosis, and novel mutation RRM2B gene.
Evaluation of neuroprotective effects hypothermia, erythropoietin and their simultaneous use after perinatal asphyxia in newborn rats.Hysterectomy was performed to Wistar female rats on the last day gestation. Perinatal induced by submersion uterus containing pups saline for 15 min. After resuscitation, were randomized into 4 groups, animals each: G1 - asphyxia; G2 + hypothermia (rectal temperature 33 °C 1 h); G3 (Darbepoetin-α 2.5 μg, intraperitoneally) G4 hypothermia. Pups sacrificed 7th...
A case of transient hyperammonemia the newborn (THAN) is described in this paper. THAN disorder that much more frequently present than diagnosed. Therefore, it necessary to estimate serum ammonia level every preterm infant, who develops signs respiratory distress syndrome first hours life, along with symptoms (lethargy, hypotonia, seizures, and coma). Dialysis proved most effective treatment.
Duplications of esophagus are rare congenital anomalies and the second most common duplications gastrointestinal tract. This form bronchopulmonary foregut malformation may appear as a cystic mediastinal mass. On chest radiographs they be visible middle or posterior masses. CT well marginated oppose esophagus. Usually asymptomatic, unless become infected cause obstruction. We report case thoracic tubular duplication cyst in 10-month-old boy who presented with persistent wheezing that was...
Idiopathic infantile arterial calcification (IIAC) is a rare autosomal recessive disease usually diagnosed postmortem. The clinical presentation not typical, but implies refractory hypertension and cardiorespiratory failure. We present case of newborn with IIAC who had fetal hydrops which normalized soon after initialization peritoneal dialysis. With this report, we wanted to highlight that dialysis may be beneficial an effective therapeutic option for patients severe hypertension. Until...
<b>Introduction:</b> In recent years, saliva has been frequently tested as an alternative biological sample for diagnosing various diseases. Various substances reach the through endogenous synthesis in acinar cells or from plasma. Passive diffusion, transudation, selective transport are how these cross plasma to saliva. There a small number of studies children and adults that have examined renal function ratio serum salivary creatinine. To date, no study conducted existence this...
Introduction/Objective. Intrauterine growth restriction is a condition in which fetus not able to achieve its genetic potential for growth. It has been linked with diseases of adulthood, such as hypertension, insulin-independent diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia. The objective the study was investigate whether application darbepoetin alfa during pregnancy first week life affects number or size kidney glomerulus mice intrauterine restriction. Methods. We used animal model Darbepoetin...
Introduction/Objectives. To investigate whether oral administration of lactoferrin attenuates intestinal injury induced by perinatal hypoxia and hypothermia. Methods. Newborn Wistar rat pups were exposed to asphyxia, followed global The distributed into two groups: group (LG) ? that received orally for seven days (20 mg/day), control (CG) normal saline during first life. After macroscopic examination the bowels pathohistological analyses tissue samples have been performed. Results. incidence...
Background/Objectives: To investigate if the severity and presentation of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) vary between different severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants. Methods: This retrospective study included 59 patients aged 0–18 years, diagnosed with COVID-19 MIS-C, treated monitored over a one-year period after discharge from hospital. The were grouped according to predominant SARS-CoV-2 variant. variant was assumed by date hospitalization....
Abstract Salih myopathy is autosomal recessive hereditary early-onset with fatal cardiomyopathy. It a rare and heterogeneous form of congenital titinopathies (TTN). Affected children have delayed motor development, normal mental in further course dilated Motor functions tendency to improve, but death occurs most often before 20 years age due arrhythmias. Our patient 2-year-old girl, born severe perinatal asphyxia, global hypotonia poor spontaneous movements. She required immediate...
The clinical presentation of foreign body aspiration in children is variable.Clinicians should maintain a high index suspicion order to make prompt and correct diagnosis.In this paper,we present case that had gone unrecognized for 54 days.Foreign be considered whenever previously healthy child suddenly exhibits unexplained symptoms usually consistent with airway obstruction which refractory medical treatment.
Acute kidney injuryStojanović and colleagues examined the sensitivity of KIM-1 cystatin-C, two biomarkers renal injury, investigated whether erythropoietin protects kidneys rat pups exposed to global ischemia in utero.As measured by both biomarkers, absolute injury scores were significantly lower that received darbepoetin-α.See page 11
Background: Lower respiratory tract infections are frequent and often serious diseases in children. Wide number of microorganisms may cause lower infections, sometimes it could be very difficult to determine the exact causative.Aim: The aim this study was assess reliability specimens obtained by bronchial lavage determining etiology childhood pneumonia.Methods: This is prospective conducted during four years period, a group 60 children aged from 6 months 18 years. All patients included...
