Gastrointestinal complications observed in infants treated with ibuprofen for PDA including gastrointestinal perforations occur in less mature infants. Active chart review of the patient's medical file with a trigger tool should be evaluated for routine ADR monitoring.

Since the civil war in Syria began, millions of Syrians have left the country and been forced to migrate to other countries. Turkey is the country with the most refugees hosting 3.6 million refugees. This study aimed to compare the PIM-3 score, PELOD-2 score, PELOD-2 predicted death rate (PDR), mortality rates, demographic data, and outcomes of patients admitted to pediatric intensive care units between refugee children living in Turkey, pediatric patients brought directly from the border by the emergency services, and the general Turkish population.

This was a retrospective study performed between February 2018 and February 2019 at Hatay State Hospital, very close to the Syrian border. The study included 158 patients. Patients were divided into three groups Turkish citizens, those living in Turkey as refugees, and those brought from the border.

Of the patients, 57 were Turkish citizens, 33 were refugees, and 68 were brought from the border. For patients, the mean PIM-3 score was 25.62±27.70, the PELOD-borders and children experiencing insufficient care conditions. In conclusion, it is not just weapons that cause death in war, and children unfortunately suffer because of this situation.

The most important aspect of hearing loss is its effect on the communication abilities of individuals. The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in hearing-impaired (HI) children with normal-hearing (NH) peers.

A total of 130 children (65 children with severe-to-profound hearing loss and 65 NH peers) participated in this cross-sectional study from November 2013 to May 2014. ADHD Rating Scale IV questionnaires were given to children's parents to collect data. Descriptive and analytical analyses were used in order to achieve the objectives of the study.

The mean age of the HI children and NH peers was 14.1 and 13.3 years, respectively. In the case group, 52 children suffered from congenital hearing loss and 10 children had acquired hearing loss. In total, 19 cases (29.2%) and eight controls (12.3%) were diagnosed with ADHD. This difference was statistically significant (P=0.017). The prevalence of ADHD in children with hereditary or acquired hearing loss was 30.7% and 20.0%, respectively. However, this difference was not significant (P=0.71).

The prevalence of ADHD in school-aged children with hearing loss is higher than that in the general population of the same age. We could not find significant differences between the different subgroups due to the small sample size. Therefore, we recommend a further larger study to determine the interaction between hearing loss and ADHD.

To assess the accuracy of contralateral testis hypertrophy for predicting the fate of nonpalpable testis in Chinese boys at different ages.

https://www.selleckchem.com/products/pf-477736.html of patients who presented with unilateral impalpable testis and who underwent laparoscopy at the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 1, 2000 and January 1, 2018 were reviewed. The boys were divided into four groups age-matched volunteers with no testicular abnormalities represented the control group (group I), boys with palpable undescended testis (group II), boys with nonpalpable testis (NPT)/viable testis (VT) (group III), and boys with NPT/non-viable testis (NVT) group (group IV). Scrotal testes were prospectively measured by ultrasonography for volume and size, and diagnostic laparoscopy was performed to determine the state of the cryptorchid testis.

The mean contralateral testicular volume and length in the boys with an absent testis was 0.78mL and 17mm compared with 0.67mL and 15mm in the boys with a testis present and narchism with an accuracy of about 65%. In younger patients aged 0-2 years and 4-6 years, the overall predictive accuracy increases to about 73% but laparoscopic exploration is still required.

16.55mm could predict monarchism with an accuracy of about 65%. In younger patients aged 0-2 years and 4-6 years, the overall predictive accuracy increases to about 73% but laparoscopic exploration is still required.

To have an overview of pediatric medical simulation within a country would be helpful to improve the offer and quality of teaching. The main objective of this study was to identify the scope for simulation-based teaching in pediatrics in France.

An assessment of professional practices was conducted by means of a national survey conducted among all university hospitals between 20 May and 6 August 2018. A standardized GoogleForm® was created and sent to heads of simulation centers or persons responsible for pediatric simulation. Descriptive analyses and comparisons of centers with and without university trainers as well as with and without research activity were performed.

All 34 teaching hospitals or faculties of medicine responded to our survey. Of these, 31 had a simulation center. There was a median of nine trainers per center (interquartile range 5-13). Most used simulation for communication and teamwork, as well as for technical and relational skills. These sessions were mainly dedicated to residents and health professionals. All centers reported working on high-fidelity newborn mannequins and 84% used low-fidelity newborn mannequins. Research activity was declared by 14 centers (45%), but only six of these had at least one publication. No difference was identified between centers with and without university trainers or with and without research activity.

Compared with the 2012 report, 19 new centers have emerged within 6 years in France (+158%). Pursuing research to evaluate the impact of simulation programs on physician skills and patient management would appear to be important.
