An analysis of physicians' diagnostic reasoning regarding pediatric abusive head trauma
CONCLUSIONS: The observed differences in patients with witnessed/admitted AHT vs. witnessed non-AHT substantiate prior reports. The complete absence of differences in patients with witnessed/admitted AHT vs. physician diagnosed AHT not witnessed/admitted supports an impression that physicians apply diagnostic reasoning informed by knowledge of previously reported injury patterns. Concern for abuse is justified in patients who present with "the triad."PMID:35567958 | DOI:10.1016/j.chiabu.2022.105666

Dabigatran Etexilate: A Review in Pediatric Venous Thromboembolism
AbstractAlthough rare in children, venous thromboembolism (VTE) is markedly more likely in hospitalized patients, particularly with the use of central venous access devices. Dabigatran etexilate (Pradaxa®) is one of the first direct non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (DOAC) approved for use in pediatric patients. It is approved in the EU and USA for the treatment of VTE in patients who have been treated with a parenteral anticoagulant for ≥ 5 days, and for the prevention of recurrent VTE. In an open-label, phase 2b/3 clini cal trial in pediatric patients with acute VTE treated for ≈ 3 months, dabigat...

The Future of Vision and Eye Care
3D printed digital contact lenses, bionic eye implants, augmented reality eye condition explainers: the future of vision and eye care are full of science fiction-sounding innovations. Here is where digital health will take ophthalmology in the future!
More than 80 percent of perception comes through vision
Researchers estimate that 80-85 percent of our perception, learning, cognition, and activities are mediated through vision. Compared to that, our hearing only processes 11 percent of information, while smell 3.5 percent, touch 1.5 percent and taste 1 percent. Don’t you think that’s possible? Renowned scholars, ...

TuYou-County Pediatric Eye (TYPE) study, design issues, baseline demographic characteristics, and implications: Report number 1
To report the rationale, design, and baseline demographic characteristics of TuYou-County Pediatric Eye study, which mainly aimed to determine the retinal microvascular changes with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and its association with eye abnormalities in school aged children and adolescents at suburban location in Northern China.
TuYou-County Pediatric Eye study was a school-based survey conducted in TuYou-County. Multi-ethnic (Mongol, Han, and Hui) participants will be followed up for 5 years. Standardized ophthalmological examinations include visual acuity, ocular biometry, retinal photography, an...

Permanent Unilateral Vision Loss From Allergic Fungal Sinusitis
In the absence of trauma, sudden unilateral painless visual loss is an uncommon condition in the pediatric population requiring emergent medical evaluation. In the acute care setting, clinicians face the challenge of accurately assessing the patient and determining the initial diagnostic workup. A careful history alone helps guide diagnosis with sudden visual loss that is unilateral and persistent. Several neuro-ophthalmological conditions that present with these characteristics include retinal artery or vein occlusion, diseases affecting the cavernous sinus or orbital apex region, and optic neuropathy. Simple eye examinat...

New frontiers of retinal therapeutic intervention: a critical analysis of novel approaches
Ann Med. 2022 Dec;54(1):1067-1080. doi: 10.1080/07853890.2022.2066169.ABSTRACTA recent wave of pharmacologic and technologic innovations has revolutionized our management of retinal diseases. Many of these advancements have demonstrated efficacy and can increase the quality of life while potentially reducing complications and decreasing the burden of care for patients. Some advances, such as longer-acting anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents, port delivery systems, gene therapy, and retinal prosthetics have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, and are available for clinical use. Countless other t...

Optimizing ERG Measures of Scotopic and Photopic Critical Flicker Frequency.
Authors: DeRamus ML, Kraft TW
Abstract
A visual response to flickering light requires complex retinal computation, and thus ERG measures are an excellent test of retinal circuit fidelity. Critical flicker frequency (CFF) is the frequency at which the retinal response is no longer modulated. Traditionally, CFF is obtained with a series of steady flicker stimuli with increasing frequencies. However, this method is slow and susceptible to experimental drift and/or adaptational effects. The current study compares the steady flicker method to CFF measurements obtained using a frequency sweep protocol. We introduce a lig...

Acute blindness as a presenting sign of left atrial myxoma in a pediatric patient: A case report and literature review
Rationale:
Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) due to cardiac myxoma primarily occurs in elderly individuals. Early detection and surgical resection of myxoma are extremely important because CRAO causes complete blindness in most cases. However, due to the extremely low incidence of CRAO caused by cardiac myxoma in the pediatric age group, such condition is rarely reported.
Patient concerns:
A 16-year-old female patient visited our hospital due to sudden onset of vision loss in the left eye, dysarthria, and right-sided hemiplegia.
Diagnoses:
She was diagnosed with CRAO via fundoscopy. Results showed a cherry-re...
