Sleep‐disordered breathing is a common feature in children with achondroplasia. The aim of our study was to review the poly(somno)graphic (P(S)G) findings and consequent treatments achondroplasia followed national reference center for skeletal dysplasia. A retrospective clinical charts P(S)G 43 consecutive (mean age 3.9 ± 3.5 years) seen over period 2 years performed. Twenty four (59%) had obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Thirteen an apnea‐hypopnea index (OAHI) < 5/hr, OAHI between 5 10/hr,...
Abstract Background The aim of this case–control study was to analyse the clinical characteristics children with recurrent community-acquired pneumonia (rCAP) affecting different lung areas (DLAs) and compare them those who have never experienced CAP in order contribute identifying best approach such patients. Methods involved 146 ≥2 episodes radiographically confirmed DLA a single year (or ≥3 any time frame) radiographic clearing densities between occurrences, 145 age- gender-matched...
Abstract The emergence of drug‐resistant M ycobacterium tuberculosis has been widely reported throughout the world, but there are very few data regarding children. We describe case a 14‐year‐old Peruvian adolescent who had living in I taly since age 8 years and was diagnosed as having peritoneal ( TB ). While she receiving first‐line anti‐ therapy, developed pyrazinamide‐associated thrombocytopenia cultures revealed multidrug‐resistant strain . Pyrazinamide, rifampicin isoniazid were...
A boy presenting with an incomplete form of the acrocallosal syndrome is described. The shows clinical variability and it stressed that none components constant facial dysmorphism not always characteristic.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is commonly associated with food allergy. Oral challenge the gold standard in diagnosis of allergy, but still has some troubles. The aim this study was to evaluate whether a single test among skin prick (SPT), measurement specific immunoglobulin E (IgE), and atopy patch (APT) or combination them could make challenges unnecessary patients AD. Twenty affected by AD, under 6 years age, were evaluated. Every child investigated for cow's milk hen's egg allergy using SPT,...
Background: Chronic interstitial lung diseases in children (chILD) are a heterogeneous group of disorders that can represent clinical challenge for pediatric pneumologists. Among them, neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia infancy (NEHI) is diffuse disease prevalent the first years life spontaneously improves over time. The presentation NEHI indistinguishable from other diseases, so correct and non-invasive diagnosis by chest computed tomography (CT) without biopsy might not be simple. Case...
There is a certain consensus that some probiotics can significantly help in preventing and relieving the symptoms of gastrointestinal diseases atopic general, but their use respiratory tract infections has only been marginally investigated. The main aim this review to evaluate what known about impact on pediatric order verify whether more data are needed before they be used infants children with problems. Analysis literature shows our knowledge limited prevention upper (URTIs). very few...
A 21-month-old boy came to our attention because of pneumonia. His weight increased before presentation, and his blood test results showed hyponatremia (116 mEq/L), low plasma osmolarity (241 mOsm/L), high urine (435 mOsm/L). He was treated with 0.9% sodium chloride solution intravenous furosemide, levels rose up 135 mEq/L in 36 hours. No standard treatment is available for severe children. The use vaptans pediatric patients described literature, but it lacks evidence about safety...
Achondroplastic children are at risk for sleep-disordered breathing. The aim of our study was to review the poly(somno)graphic (P(S)G) findings and treatments in achondroplastic children. A clinical charts P(S)G data referred center performed. Forty-four patients (age 3.9±3.5 years) were included study. Fifteen (34%) had upper airway surgery 6 (14%) a craniocervical decompression before P(S)G. Twenty-five (57%) an abnormal defined by apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) >1.5 events/h with 13 (30%),...
