CASE DESCRIPTION: This male child, four years and eight months old, with West syndrome, had been using sodium valproate since six months of age. The patient was admitted with anemia, macrocytosis, thrombocytopenia, deficiency of vitamin B12, hypoalbuminemia and hyponatremia. The clinical signs were associated to chronic sodium valproate use. COMMENTS: Sodium valproate hematologic toxicity is frequent, varying in onset and severity. The most common findings are thrombocytopenia and macrocytosis. In addition to the hematological toxicity, literature reports other side effects associated ...

FONTES DE DADOS: Por meio de revisão sistemática nas bases de dados eletrônicas Medline e Lilacs, foram selecionados títulos científicos publicados no intervalo de onze anos referentes à prevalência de anemia no Brasil em crianças menores de cinco anos de idade. Foram excluídos artigos de revisão, relatos de caso e trabalhos que relacionaram anemia a outras doenças e ao período gestacional. Para a análise comparativa das variáveis categóricas de interesse nos artigos encontrados, realizou-se o teste do qui-quadrado e o teste exato de Fisher, levando-se em conta o nível de significância estatística de 5% (p Revista Paulista de Pediatria journals http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2494040 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 08:09:23 +0100 2494040 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2494039&cid=s_37458_33_f&fid=37458&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.scielo.br%2Fscielo.php%3Fscript%3Dsci_arttext%26pid%3DS0103-05822009000100013%26lng%3Den%26nrm%3Diso%26tlng%3Den CONCLUSIONS: Mosquitoes are vectors of a variety of infectious and parasitic diseases which annually affect millions of people and cause thousands of deaths worldwide. The combat to mosquitoes includes individual and environmental measures.

Some of the postural alterations, such as abducted scapula, unbalance and protraction of the shoulders, knock-knee and lumbar hiperlordosis, normally occur and they are naturally corrected during growth. However, some postural problems, such as protraction and inclination of the cervical spine, were also prevalent and they require early intervention.

Os adolescentes foram divididos em dois grupos de acordo com o percentual de gordura (%G): baixo (%G20%). Mensuraram-se o peso, a estatura e as dobras cutâneas (tríceps e subescapular) e estimou-se o %G dos adolescentes por meio da equação de Lohman.
