Immune reconstitution in children after haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation
CONCLUSION: Paediatric patients who undergo haploidentical HSCT with PTCy are likely to have delayed IR and an increased risk of viral reactivation/infection compared with HLA-matched HSCT. The addition of ATG to PTCy delayed T cell recovery and increased risk of BKV reactivation.PMID:38646695 | DOI:10.1111/ijlh.14290 (Source: International Journal of Laboratory Hematology)

The Median Effective Dose of Dexmedetomidine for the Inhibition of Emergence Delirium in Preschool Children Undergoing Tonsillectomy and/or Adenoidectomy: A Retrospective Dose-response Trial
Dose Response. 2024 Apr 19;22(2):15593258241248919. doi: 10.1177/15593258241248919. eCollection 2024 Apr-Jun.ABSTRACTThe incidence of emergence delirium (ED) is higher in preschool children undergoing tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy. The purpose of this study was to determine the median effective dose (ED50) of dexmedetomidine (DEX) for the inhibition of ED in preschool children by using probit regression analysis. A total of 140 anesthesia records were retrieved and divided into seven groups based on the infusion rate of DEX: .2, .25, .3, .35, .4, .45, and .5 μg·kg-1·h-1. The Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium ...

Comparative Outcomes of Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing vs. Plate Fixation in Pediatric Femoral Shaft Fractures. A Prospective Study
CONCLUSIONS: 1. Our study indicates a preference for Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing (ESIN) over plate fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures in children aged 5-10 years. 2. ESIN is associated with shorter operative times and faster commencement of weight-bearing, critical in pediatric recovery. 3. While ESIN is generally preferable, plate fixation may be better suited in certain clinical scenarios, emphasizing the importance of personalized treatment. 4. Based on our findings, ESIN is recommended for treating transverse diaphyseal femur fractures in the specified pediatric age group. 5. Recommends further st...

Trends in pediatric emergency department transfers from Indian Health Service and tribal health systems
CONCLUSIONS: This study addresses important knowledge gaps regarding transfers from IHS and tribal EDs, highlights potential high-impact areas for pediatric readiness, and emphasizes the need for more granular data to inform resource allocation and educational interventions. Further studies are needed to delineate potentially avoidable transfers seen within this population.PMID:38644585 | DOI:10.1111/acem.14878 (Source: Accident and Emergency Nursing)

First Transcriptome Analysis of Hepatoblastoma in Brazil: Unraveling the Pivotal Role of Noncoding RNAs and Metabolic Pathways
In this study conducted in Brazilian patients, an in-depth whole transcriptome analysis was performed on 14 primary hepatoblastomas, compared to control liver tissues. The analysis unveiled 1,492 differentially expressed genes (1,031 upregulated and 461 downregulated), including 920 protein-coding genes (62%). Upregulated biological processes were linked to cell differentiation, signaling, morphogenesis, and development, involving known hepatoblastoma-associated genes (DLK1, MEG3, HDAC2, TET1, HMGA2, DKK1, DKK4), alongside with novel findings (GYNG4, CDH3, and TNFRSF19). Downregulated processes predominantly centered aroun...

Youth and Parent Perceptions of Youth Decision-Making Roles Regarding Evaluation for Short Stature
Child Health Care. 2024;53(2):148-162. doi: 10.1080/02739615.2022.2163491. Epub 2023 Jan 10.ABSTRACTYouth decision-making involvement (DMI) in medical treatment associates with greater adherence and feelings of self-efficacy. However, little is known about youth DMI regarding medical evaluation and diagnostic procedures. Using thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews, we explored parent (n=24) and youth (n=24) perceptions of youth roles in the decision to undergo evaluation for short stature. Five themes emerged about evaluation decisions including: parents/providers were gatekeepers, some parents sought youth agree...
