Tracking of Cardiorespiratory Fitness from Childhood to Mid-Adulthood
We examined how childhood CRF tracks, or persists, into adulthood. Among a cohort of 748 school children followed over 34 years, we found child CRF correlated with young- (r=0.30) and mid-adulthood (r=0.16) CRF. (Source: The Journal of Pediatrics)

The Influence of Dietary Counseling Over 20  Years on Tracking of Non-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol from Infancy to Young Adulthood
This 26-year study found that non –high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) levels tracked from infancy to young adulthood suggesting early-life non-HDL-C could predict future levels. However, infancy-onset dietary counseling reduced the odds of maintaining at-risk non-HDL-C, highlighting the potential importance of early interventions in preventing cardiovascular risk associated with high pediatric non-HDL-C.

Reassessing the Paradigm for Respiratory Tract Infections in European Children
In numerous Northern Hemisphere countries, the winter season of 2022-2023 has posed exceptional challenges for healthcare providers and pediatricians, primarily as a result of an unprecedented rise in respiratory tract infections1. Globally, a plethora of studies has indicated that the implementation and subsequent relaxation of nonpharmacological interventions (NPIs) to curb the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 have profoundly altered the epidemiological landscape of pediatric infectious diseases2-5.

Chronic Crusted Plaque After Skin Injury
An 11-year-old male presented to the emergency department with a lesion on his right proximal lower leg. Two months earlier, he had fallen onto a branch, leading to a laceration requiring repair with sutures. This wound was improving initially; however, six weeks later, surrounding redness and overlying crusting developed. The child presented to a walk-in clinic and was started on topical mupirocin ointment and oral cephalexin for presumed cellulitis. The surrounding erythema worsened despite treatment with antibiotics, and he presented to the emergency department. (Source: The Journal of Pediatrics)
