Evaluation of risk factors, functionalities, and quality of life in patients with pediatric acute arterial ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Determining the etiology and evaluating prognosis are important to plan effective treatment and rehabilitation for pediatric acute arterial ischemic stroke.PMID:37114696 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2022.350

Arteriopathy, D-Dimer, and Risk of Poor Neurologic Outcome in Childhood-Onset Arterial Ischemic Stroke
Conclusion: Arteriopathy and coagulation activation are highly prevalent in the acute period of childhood AIS. Although recurrent AIS and intracranial hemorrhage were infrequent in our cohort, one-half of children experienced a poor neurologic outcome at 1 year, the risk of which was increased by acute arteriopathy. Substantiation of these findings in multi-institutional cohort studies is warranted, toward risk stratification in childhood-onset AIS.

Quantification of white matter injury following neonatal stroke with serial DTI.
Conclusion:Neonatal FA measurements may underestimate the extent of injury following PAIS. FA measurements at 3 mo could be considered a more reliable predictor of neurodevelopmental outcome and correlate with DTI findings at 24 mo.

Stroke in paediatric pneumococcal meningitis: a cross-sectional population-based study
Before routine infant pneumococcal immunisation and improved access to neuroimaging, around 25% of children with pneumococcal meningitis (PM) suffered ischaemic stroke (IS).1 2 In a population-based retrospective audit (UHS ZAUD2053), we investigated the postimmunisation prevalence of stroke/cerebrovascular disease (CVD), and compared features of children with and without IS/CVD. We included all cases of PM in children <18 years old with a Wessex postcode admitted to our tertiary centre, University Hospital Southampton (UHS) and the eight hospitals in our referral catchment area of Hampshire and Dorset (2001 childh...

Neonatal stroke: a review of the current evidence on epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnostics and therapeutic options
ConclusionAlthough our understanding of the underlying mechanisms and possible risk factors has improved, little progress has been made towards therapeutic options. Considering the high incidence of neurological sequelae, the need for therapeutic options is high and should be the focus of future research.This article is protected by copyright.

Four steps to help kids avoid heat stroke in cars
A total of eight children have died this year from heat stroke after being left alone in a car.
Unfortunately, this is not an alarming new trend. Since 1998, at least 600 children across the United States have died when they were left unattended in a vehicle. A majority of these children were left accidently in the backseat by a distracted parent or caregiver, only to discover the child hours later, after it was too late. Other times the child found her way into a parked car and couldn’t get out on her own. As many as 18 percent of these deaths occurred after a parent knowingly left a child in a car.
But this isnR...

Structural causes of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke in children: moyamoya and arteriovenous malformations
Purpose of review: Moyamoya and arteriovenous malformations represent, respectively, significant sources of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke in children after the first year of life. Although rarely encountered in routine pediatric practice, the potential severe morbidity of these entities, coupled with the typical acuity of their presentation, merit ongoing awareness of current relevant diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
Recent findings: Mutations in RNF213, ACTA2, and GUCY are implicated in moyamoya. Several common pediatric conditions – trisomy 21, sickle-cell disease, and neurofibromatosis type I – demonstrate a...
