Excessive pickle consumption: beware of adrenal crisis
We report the case of a 13-year-old child admitted for cardiac arrest following severe hypovolemic shock. The patient initially presented with isolated mild abdominal pain and vomiting together with unexplained hyponatremia. He was discharged after an initial short hospitalization with rehydration but with persistent hyponatremia. After discharge, he had persistent refractory vomiting, finally leading to severe dehydration and extreme asthenia. He was admitted to pediatric intensive care after prolonged hypovolemic cardiac arrest with severe anoxic encephalopathy leading to brain death. After re-interviewing, the child's p...

Primary lymphedema of childhood: Treatment results from a tertiary center
CONCLUSION: Pediatric lymphedema management is a difficult and less well studied area in lymphedema rehabilitation. Our data support the use of CDT, which is a safe and effective treatment method, for pediatric lymphedema patients.PMID:38637245 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2024.02.002 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

Removal of airway foreign body using flexible bronchoscopy in children
CONCLUSION: AFB removal using a flexible bronchoscope is an efficient and safe procedure when performed by an experienced team. The recent use of LMA has facilitated the use of a larger bronchofiberscope and the insertion of multiple tools that can reach distal airways.PMID:38637247 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2024.01.008 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

Persistent and symptomatic periodic breathing beyond the neonatal period in full-term infants: A case series
CONCLUSION: This study presents cases of persistent and symptomatic PB after 1 month of life in infants born at term. The interesting finding was the presence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and/or central apnea syndrome in the majority of children, along with GER.PMID:38637248 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2024.01.007 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

Short-term azithromycin use is associated with QTc interval prolongation in children with cystic fibrosis
CONCLUSION: Short-term use of azithromycin prophylaxis in pediatric patients with mild CF slightly increased the QTc interval in the first and third months of follow-up. Nevertheless, all QTc interval changes fell within the safety zone. Notably, 1 month of follow-up treatment should be performed to check for any alteration in the QTc interval. If increased QTc interval duration is not detected in the first month, azithromycin prophylaxis can be safely prescribed.PMID:38637249 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2024.02.004 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

Airway obstruction in two children with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome and review of the literature
Arch Pediatr. 2024 Apr;31(3):205-208. doi: 10.1016/j.arcped.2023.12.002. Epub 2024 Mar 27.ABSTRACTCongenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is an autosomal dominant disease that is caused by heterozygous mutations in the paired-like homeobox 2B gene (PHOX2B). Madani et al. described an abnormally high degree of not only central apnea but also obstructive and mixed apnea in Phox2b27Ala/+newborn mice. Newborns with CCHS must undergo polysomnography for obstructive respiratory events in order to guide the optimal ventilation strategy if oxygen desaturation, bradycardia, and malaise persist under noninvasive ventilati...

Treatment of pediatric heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia 7 years after the EAS recommendations: Real-world results from a large French cohort
CONCLUSION: Pediatric patients with FH followed up in specialist lipid clinics in France receive late treatment, undertreatment, or suboptimal treatment and half of them do not reach the therapeutic LDL-C goal. Finding a more efficient framework for linking scientific evidence to clinical practice is needed.PMID:38538465 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2024.01.004 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

Evaluation of vitamin D levels in children and adolescents after the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic: 1-year results of a secondary-level state hospital
CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D deficiency remains a serious public health problem. Since the most important production source is exposure to the sun, it must be kept in mind that vitamin D should be supported during lockdown pandemic processes.PMID:38538466 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2023.11.001 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

A rare case of lysozyme-induced anaphylaxis in a child with egg allergy
We report an unusual case of anaphylaxis induced by the lysozyme-containing over-the-counter-drug Lysopaine®, which contains 20 mg lysozyme hydrochloride and 1.5 mg cetylpyridinium chloride, in a 9-year-old child with allergy to hen's egg as well as multiple IgE-mediated food allergies. The involvement of lysozyme was confirmed by positive skin prick tests for Lysopaine® and the presence of specific IgE against lysozyme. Our case highlights the importance of properly educating allergic patients to recognize allergens, even minor ones. Despite the presence of lysozyme in various food and drug products, it is not necessari...

Risk factors for unexpected infant death among very premature infants in France
CONCLUSION: This study confirms prematurity as a risk factor for SUID with no difference in the SUID-specific risk factors studied except for breastfeeding and socioeconomic status of the fathers. VPI and FTI died at similar chronological ages with a high proportion of infants dying in prone position. These results argue for reinforcement of prevention strategies in cases of prematurity.PMID:38538469 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2023.12.003 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)

Diagnosis and management of congenital hypopituitarism in children
This article presents recommendations for hormone replacement therapy for each of the respective deficient axes. Lifelong follow-up with an endocrinologist is required, including in adulthood, with multidisciplinary management for patients with syndromic forms or comorbidities. Treatment objectives include alleviating symptoms, preventing comorbidities and acute complications, and optimal social and educational integration.PMID:38538470 | DOI:10.1016/j.arcped.2024.01.003 (Source: Archives de Pediatrie)
