A BSTRACT Background: Empathy plays a vital role in optimizing care, demanding its presence both clinicians and patients within the pediatric context. In this domain, empathy takes on multidimensional aspect, considering various cognitive subdimensions. Moreover, families’ sensitivity have been identified as potent protective factors influencing psychosocial adjustment. Objectives: The study was designed to assess level of among parents attending neurology clinics. Methods: This is...
To establish reference values for peripheral oxygen saturation levels in children using pulse oximetry. Pulse oximetry to assess is widely used pediatric care as part of vital signs monitoring. Although readings between 95% and 100% are often considered normal clinical practice, recent studies suggest that the range should be 97% 100%. This cross-sectional study included aged ≤18 years attending clinics not having respiratory distress or acute illness during their visit. Vital anthropometric...
The seizure threshold 2 (SZT2) gene encodes a protein of unknown function, which is widely expressed, confers low threshold, and enhances epileptogenesis. It also comprises the KICSTOR complex, inhibits mTORC1 pathway. A pathogenic variant in SZT2 could result hyperactive signaling, can lead to several neurological disorders.To review every reported case present two novel cases expand current knowledge understanding mutation.Whole exome sequencing (WES) was used identify their clinical...
Context: Despite the vast developments in medical sciences recent decades, seizures remain a common occurrence among neonates, associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Aims: The aim this study was to assess analyze presentation outcome neonates who were previously exposed seizures. Subjects Methods: Following retrospective research design, included 50 cases neonatal (29 males 21 females), admitted intensive care unit at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Jeddah City, Saudi...
Background: Kohlschutter–Tonz syndrome (KTS) is a rare genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive syn drome initially described in 1974 and characterized by the triad of infantile-onset epilepsy, amelogenesis imperfecta, developmental delay. KTS patients share common genetic trait, namely variant ROGDI gene, gene unknown function that maps to chromosome 16p13.3. Methods: Following appropriate ethical logistical measures, we reviewed literature cases with presented one novel case diagnosed...
