Understanding of the pathology of the disease is progressing rapidly, and while clinical trials of standard chemotherapy agents continue, it is likely that novel targeted therapy will become feasible in the next decade. Permanent consequences of the disease are more commoner than generally realised. (Source: Archives of Disease in Childhood)

Child health in ColombiaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Colombia is a country with major problems, mainly a high degree of inequality and an unacceptably high level of violence (both armed military conflict and crime related). There are unacceptably high variations in health and health provision. Despite these difficulties, there are important steps being taken by both the government and independent organisations to try and improve child health and to achieve the Millennium Development Goals in relation to poverty, hunger and health issues. The participation of different sectors and stakeholders (including government, non-governmental organisations and other organisations of ci...

Opsoclonus myoclonus: a non-epileptic movement disorder that may present as status epilepticusEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We describe two cases of a non-epileptic florid movement disorder presenting as status epilepticus. Both patients presented with florid jerking of the limbs and eyes. Convulsive status epilepticus related to presumed meningitis or encephalitis was suspected in both cases. The patients received treatment for seizures, without resolution of the abnormal movements, resulting ultimately in anaesthetic, intubation and ventilation. EEGs showed no epileptic discharges. The diagnosis was opsoclonus myoclonus syndrome in both. One patient was treated with adrenocorticotropic hormone (40 IU/day), the other with prednisolone (4 mg/kg...

Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS): characteristics of deaths since the fall in SIDS in the French region of Languedoc-RoussillonEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The characteristics of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in the French region of Languedoc-Roussillon from 2003–2008 were examined in a retrospective study of two groups classified as unexplained sudden unexpected death in infancy (SUDI) (SIDS, n = 27) or explained SUDI (n = 22). The interval between the time the baby was last observed alive (time of last feed) and the discovery of death was evaluated. In SIDS, 67% (18/27) of deaths were discovered during the day (09:00–21:00 h) mostly within 4 h after feeding (66%). In explained SUDI, 68.2% of deaths were discovered at night and time intervals between the la...

How well do vital signs identify children with serious infections in paediatric emergency care?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: A combination of vital signs can be used to differentiate children with serious infections from those with less serious infections in a paediatric assessment unit and has comparable sensitivity to more complicated triage systems. The diagnostic value of combined vital signs and the NICE traffic light system remains to be determined in populations where the prevalence of severe illness is much lower.

Novel hypothesis for unexplained sudden unexpected death in infancy (SUDI)Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: We propose that sterile site infections in which common toxigenic bacteria are identified indicate a brief bacteraemic episode prior to death. This might reflect an ineffective innate response to invasive pathogens that results in reduced clearance of the bacteria. Thymomegaly observed consistently among infants diagnosed under the category of SIDS might have its origins in prenatal life, perhaps generated via in utero infection or exposure to microbial antigens which results in thymocyte priming. There is consistent evidence for an infectious aetiology in many unexplained SUDI. Future directions for research a...

Making choices: why parents present to the emergency department for non-urgent care [Short report]Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: This study displayed the accuracy of "parental triage," that is, parents assess their child’s health and generally engage in appropriate care-giving and care-seeking behaviours before presenting to a paediatric emergency department. Highlighted are the deficiencies in current primary care services available to families and the perception that not all cases deemed as non-urgent by the emergency department are able to be dealt with in a primary care setting.

Life-course persistent conduct disorder is a major public health problem with implications for individual health and for society at large.

Child health and living at high altitude [Reviews]Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The health of children born and living at high altitude is shaped not only by the low-oxygen environment, but also by population ancestry and sociocultural determinants. High altitude and the corresponding reduction in oxygen delivery during pregnancy result in lower birth weight with higher elevation. Children living at high elevations are at special risk for hypoxaemia during infancy and during acute lower respiratory infection, symptomatic high-altitude pulmonary hypertension, persistence of fetal vascular connections, and re-entry high-altitude pulmonary oedema. However, child health varies from one population group to...
