Precocious puberty defined by the onset of secondary sexual characteristics before 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys. It is more common in females than males and is usually sporadic. Depending on the primary source of hormonal production, precocious puberty is classified as central and peripheral. Precocious puberty in infants is very rare. While investigating a case of precocious puberty, it is essential to progress systematically, with an identification of isolated or complete precocious puberty followed by bone age estimation, relevant hormonal assays, including GnRH stimulation, as well as neuroimaging when indicated. We present a case of isosexual (central) precocious puberty in a 1 year, 3-month-old girl, who was symptomatic for 1 year of age and was diagnosed to have hypothalamic hamartoma after methodical evaluation and responded to treatment with GnRH agonists.
性早熟是指女孩在8岁之前,男孩在9岁之前出现第二性征。它在女性中比男性更常见,通常是零星的。根据激素产生的主要来源,性早熟可分为中枢性和外周性。婴儿性早熟是非常罕见的。在调查性早熟病例时,有必要进行系统的进展,首先确定孤立性或完全性性早熟,然后进行骨龄估计,相关激素测定,包括GnRH刺激,以及必要时的神经影像学检查。我们报告了一例1岁3个月大的同性性(中枢性)性早熟女孩,她在1岁时出现症状,经过系统评估后被诊断为下丘脑错构瘤,并对GnRH激动剂治疗有反应。

A double-chambered right ventricle (DCRV) is a rare congenital heart disease and an uncommon cause of congestive cardiac failure. An anomalous muscle band divides the right ventricle into two cavities, the proximal high-pressure chamber, and distal low-pressurechamber. Its origin is debated. Most cases are diagnosed and treated during childhood. Furthermore, there is tendency for progression, if not treated. Echocardiography is considered useful for diagnosis. About 80–90% patients have associated congenital anomalies, such as ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and subaortic stenosis. Isolated DCRV is exceptionally rare. Hence, we are reporting a case of an isolated DCRV in an asymptomatic young female patient.
双室右心室(DCRV)是一种罕见的先天性心脏病和充血性心力衰竭的罕见原因。异常肌束将右心室分成两个腔,近端高压腔和远端低压腔。它的起源有争议。大多数病例在儿童时期得到诊断和治疗。此外,如果不治疗,有进展的趋势。超声心动图被认为对诊断有用。约80-90%的患者伴有先天性异常,如室间隔缺损、肺动脉狭窄和主动脉下狭窄。孤立的DCRV极为罕见。因此,我们报告一例无症状年轻女性患者的孤立性DCRV病例。

Primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare fulminant genetic disease with uncontrolled immune activation and multiorgan involvement. It is quite rare in neonates but a high index of suspicion is needed as the condition will present like sepsis and is associated with high mortality. Persistent fever is a prominent clinical feature. Genetic diagnosis is essential as the condition is autosomal recessive in familial types. Here, we report four cases of HLH diagnosed in the newborn period. We got an uncommon homozygous genetic mutation in STXBP2 involving exon 19, which has been reported only in very few cases. HLH should be considered as a differential diagnosis in any sick neonate who presents with prolonged fever with an unusual clinical course
原发性噬血细胞性淋巴组织细胞病(HLH)是一种罕见的暴发性遗传性疾病,具有不受控制的免疫激活和多器官受累。它在新生儿中非常罕见,但需要高度怀疑,因为这种情况会像败血症一样出现,并与高死亡率相关。持续发热是一个突出的临床特征。遗传诊断是必要的,因为条件是常染色体隐性在家族型。在这里,我们报告了四个病例的HLH诊断在新生儿时期。我们在STXBP2中发现了一个罕见的纯合基因突变,涉及外显子19,仅在极少数病例中报道。HLH应被视为鉴别诊断在任何生病的新生儿谁表现出长期发烧与不寻常的临床过程

Hurried child syndrome: A narrative review 匆忙儿童综合症:叙述回顾
Pub Date : 2022-08-10 DOI: 10.32677/ijch.v9i7.3593
Amit  Agrawal, Shweta Sharma, Jyotshna Shrivastava
When a child's parents expect him or her to perform much above his or her mental, social, or emotional capacity, the condition known as "Hurried Child Syndrome (HCS)" develops. In today’s world, parents overbook their kids' calendars, push them to do well in school, and demand that they behave and react just like little adults. The current situation of trade is one of the other considerations. We live in a time-restricted culture where the emphasis is primarily on speed, instant gratification, fast meals, etc. This eventually leads to parenting a hurried child. The current research review focuses on the causes, consequences, and preventative approaches of the resulting HCS.
当一个孩子的父母期望他或她的表现远远超出他或她的智力,社交或情感能力时,这种情况被称为“匆忙儿童综合症”(HCS)。在当今世界,父母给孩子排满了日程,强迫他们在学校好好表现,要求他们的行为举止和反应都像小孩子一样。目前的贸易形势是另一个考虑因素。我们生活在一个时间限制的文化中,强调的主要是速度、即时满足、快餐等。这最终导致养育一个匆忙的孩子。目前的研究综述主要集中在HCS的原因、后果和预防方法上。

Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent mental health disorders among school-age children in India. Etiopathogenesis is attributed to abnormal dopamine regulation which is influenced by both genetic (genes encodingdopamine-DRD4, DRD5, and DAT1) and environmental factors. Micronutrients such as iron and Vitamin D play imperative roles in neurologic function, neurotransmitter synthesis, and regulation. Aim: The aim of the study was to study the association between Serum Vitamin D and Serum Ferritin levels in children with ADHD. Materials and Methods: This case–control study was conducted in the outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital, from October 2019 to May 2021. Subjects (n=30) included patients with the diagnosis of ADHD (using child behavior checklist and INDT–ADHD). Healthy children of the comparable age group were taken as controls. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software version 22. Results: The mean value of serum ferritin levels in cases was observed to be 32.55±31.97 ng/ml and in controls was 143.43±260.40 ng/ml. The study found a significant difference in the mean value of serum ferritin levels in cases and controls (p?0.024). No significant difference in the mean value of serum Vitamin D in cases and controls (p–0.229) was noted. Conclusions: An association between low levels of serum ferritin and ADHD was seen. 
背景:注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)是印度学龄儿童中最普遍的心理健康障碍之一。发病机制归因于多巴胺调节异常,受遗传(编码多巴胺- drd4、DRD5和DAT1的基因)和环境因素的影响。微量营养素如铁和维生素D在神经功能、神经递质合成和调节中起着重要作用。目的:本研究的目的是研究ADHD儿童血清维生素D和血清铁蛋白水平之间的关系。材料与方法:本病例对照研究于2019年10月至2021年5月在某三级医院门诊部进行。研究对象(n=30)包括诊断为ADHD的患者(使用儿童行为检查表和INDT-ADHD)。选取同龄健康儿童作为对照。使用Statistical Package for Social Sciences软件版本22进行统计分析。结果:患者血清铁蛋白水平平均值为32.55±31.97 ng/ml,对照组为143.43±260.40 ng/ml。研究发现,在病例和对照组中,血清铁蛋白水平的平均值有显著差异(p?0.024)。病例组和对照组血清维生素D平均值无显著差异(p-0.229)。结论:低水平的血清铁蛋白与ADHD之间存在关联。

Aim: The aim of the study was to study management outcomes and risk factors in children with Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) <6 months and to assess the role of the Supplementary Suckling Technique (SST) in reestablishing breastfeeding. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective observational hospital-based study done in the Department of Pediatrics in a tertiary teaching institute from October 2019 to September 2020. 75 children who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Children were managed according to the WHO protocol. SST was used to establish breastfeeding in cases of lactation failure. Results: A total of 75 infant’s up to 6 months of age were enrolled. Most infants presented at the age of 2–4 months (42.67%). The male-female ratio was 1.2:1. 50 (66.67%) mothers were illiterate and 65 (82.67%) belonged to the lower socioeconomic status. A history of preterm birth and low birth weight (LBW) was found in 54 (72%) and 62 (82.67%) infants, respectively. Exclusive breast feed was given to 13.33% while top feeding given to 86.6% of infants. With proper management target weight was achieved in 53 (70.66%) infants. Most infants stayed from 11 to 20 days (79.37%). Lactation was re-established in 60.46% of children who tried the supplement suckling technique. Conclusion: Lack of awareness regarding adequate infant feeding practices and illiteracy is an important factor for the high prevalence of malnutrition. SST is an effective way in reestablishing breastfeeding in lactational failure. Proper counseling and education of the mother by health-care professionals can help in improving exclusive breastfeeding rate.
目的:本研究的目的是研究严重急性营养不良(SAM) <6个月儿童的管理结果和危险因素,并评估补充哺乳技术(SST)在重建母乳喂养中的作用。材料与方法:本研究是2019年10月至2020年9月在某高等教育学院儿科开展的前瞻性观察性医院研究。75名符合纳入标准的儿童被纳入研究。儿童按照世界卫生组织的方案进行管理。在哺乳失败的情况下,SST被用来建立母乳喂养。结果:共有75名6个月以下的婴儿被纳入研究。大多数婴儿出现在2-4个月(42.67%)。男女比例为1.2:1。文盲母亲50例(66.67%),社会经济地位较低的母亲65例(82.67%)。早产史54例(72%),低出生体重史62例(82.67%)。全母乳喂养占13.33%,全母乳喂养占86.6%。经适当管理,53例(70.66%)患儿达到目标体重。11 ~ 20 d占多数(79.37%)。60.46%的患儿在尝试补充哺乳后恢复泌乳。结论:缺乏对婴儿适当喂养方法的认识和文盲是营养不良高发的重要因素。SST是哺乳期失败后恢复母乳喂养的有效方法。保健专业人员对母亲进行适当的咨询和教育有助于提高纯母乳喂养率。

Situs ambiguous accounts for 4% of all congenital heart disease (CHD) and has an incidence of 1:10,000 new born births. To standardize the nomenclature for CHD, the international nomenclature society published a globally accepted nomenclature tree for CHD with the 11th Iteration of international classification of disease. According to this publication common atrium, single atrium and atrium communis are denoted as synonyms. The incidence of common atrium among atrial septal defect (ASD) patients is 3–4% only and thus denoting it to be a rare entity. We are presenting an exceedingly rare case of a patient of situs ambiguous, left isomerism, and single atrium with a cleft on the anterior mitral leaflet, evaluated comprehensively by four-dimensional X-strain color Doppler echocardiography.
位置模糊占所有先天性心脏病(CHD)的4%,新生儿发病率为1:10 000。为了规范冠心病的命名,国际命名学会在第11次国际疾病分类中发布了一份全球通用的冠心病命名树。根据该出版物,公共中庭、单个中庭和公共中庭被表示为同义词。房间隔缺损(ASD)患者中普通心房的发生率仅为3-4%,是一种罕见的疾病。我们报告一个极其罕见的病例,患者位置不清,左同分异构体,单心房二尖瓣前叶裂,通过四维X-strain彩色多普勒超声心动图进行全面评估。

Objective: This study aims to analyze the risk factors and vital role of mothers in prevention of nutritional anemia in the early childhood. Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study done in Coimbatore for 2 years. Using a pre-tested structured validated tool, mothers of children aged 6 months–2 years were interviewed to collect information on factors contributing to anemia with special regard to maternal knowledge. Results: Anemia was more in the latter half of infancy (67.2%) with male predominance (60.5%). An affirmative association between increased cow’s milk intake and low hemoglobin was present (p=0.002). Employed and less educated mothers had more anemic children (p<0.05). Of 16% mothers classified as “poor” awareness, 95.45% children had low hemoglobin (p<0.05). Conclusion: Recognizing the causative factors plays an essential role in preventing iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Exclusive breastfeeding must be promoted, along with avoiding excessive cow’s milk intake. Intervening at the right period with age-appropriate foods becomes a necessity. Maternal illiteracy has a positive correlation with anemia in infants. Improving maternal awareness by the physicians will pave the road toward a nation free from anemia.
目的:分析母亲在预防幼儿营养性贫血中的危险因素及重要作用。方法:在哥印拜陀进行为期2年的以医院为基础的横断面研究。使用预先测试的结构化验证工具,对6个月至2岁儿童的母亲进行访谈,以收集有关导致贫血的因素的信息,特别是关于孕产妇知识。结果:贫血多见于婴儿期后半期(67.2%),以男性为主(60.5%)。牛奶摄入量增加与低血红蛋白呈正相关(p=0.002)。有工作和受教育程度较低的母亲有更多的贫血儿童(p<0.05)。16%的母亲意识差,95.45%的孩子血红蛋白低(p<0.05)。结论:认识缺铁性贫血的发病因素对预防缺铁性贫血有重要作用。必须提倡纯母乳喂养,同时避免过量的牛奶摄入。在适当的时期用适合年龄的食物进行干预是必要的。产妇文盲与婴儿贫血呈正相关。提高医生对产妇的认识将为一个没有贫血的国家铺平道路。

Aim and Objectives: The goal of this research was to assess the demographic, clinical, and radiological characteristics of children brought to the hospital with acute bronchiolitis. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective study of children aged 1–3 years whowere admitted to a tertiary care center with acute bronchiolitis between June and August 2021. The research excludes infants <1 month. Age, sex, comorbidities, tachypnea, respiratory distress, saturations, nebulizations’, oxygen therapy, and mortality were all recorded as variables. The data were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: About 60% of the 162 children admitted with bronchiolitis are males, and 68% of the babies had been exposed to passive smoking. Cough (98%) and wheeze (91%) were the mostcommon symptoms and signs, respectively. On chest X-rays, 73% of the children had hyperinflated lung fields and 8% had atelectasis. Out of 29 children with severe hypoxemia and respiratory failure, 25 children responded to high-flow nasal cannula or continuouspositive airway pressure, and only four required intubation and invasive ventilation. In our study, there was no mortality. Conclusion: The most common reason for hospitalization among infants is acute bronchiolitis. We have significantly reduced the use of antibiotics,systemic steroids, and bronchodilators in our hospital after developing standard treatment protocols for acute bronchiolitis and strictly following them.

Introduction: In the 21st century, with growing concerns over over-diagnosis of asthma in children; the diagnosis of asthma is left as diagnosis by exclusion. On the same lines, an attempt had been made to device a criteria to exclude diagnosis of asthma. The criteria are labeled as other than asthma (OTA) criteria. It is assumed that if a case does not satisfy OTA tool, then it is likely to be asthma. This study had objectives of validation of screening tool by expert and validation of OTA tool by direct application on patients. Materials and Methods: This was an observational and prospective study only. Total 120 cases were enrolled. Questionnaire applied on all cases and all of the 120 cases were followed up on day 30 with clinical diagnosis and were included in results estimation. Results: According to the screening tool, out of 120 cases, 83 cases (69.2%) were found to have OTA while 37 cases (30.8%) werefound to have non-OTA. However, among this study population, 94 cases (78.3%) had non-asthma and 26 cases (21.7%) had clinical diagnosis of asthma taken as gold standard. The association between clinical diagnosis and total score based diagnosis was found to bestatistically significant (p=1.96E-07). Sensitivity was 91.57% and specificity was 51.35% which helps detect OTA cases effectively. Predictive value of positive test is 80.85% and predictive value of negative test was 73.08%. OTA category has relative risk of 3.003 for diagnosis of non-asthma as compared to 0.262 for non-OTA category being almost 3 times in comparison to non-OTA category. Thus, OTA was consistent with non-asthma diagnosis. Conclusion: On direct application of patients in prospective study, this tool has proven its value as an effective screening tool. This was the first such study to diagnose asthma by exclusion, devising a criterion for other than asthma conditions.
在21世纪,随着人们对儿童哮喘过度诊断的日益关注;对哮喘的诊断保留为排除诊断。同样,人们也曾试图制定一种排除哮喘诊断的标准。这些标准被标记为哮喘(OTA)标准以外的标准。假设一个病例不符合OTA工具,那么它很可能是哮喘。本研究的目的是通过专家对筛查工具进行验证,并通过直接应用于患者对OTA工具进行验证。材料和方法:这只是一项观察性和前瞻性研究。共入组120例。所有病例均采用问卷调查,所有120例病例均于临床诊断后第30天进行随访,纳入结果评估。结果:根据筛查工具,120例患者中发现有OTA 83例(69.2%),非OTA 37例(30.8%)。然而,在本研究人群中,94例(78.3%)患者无哮喘,26例(21.7%)患者以临床诊断哮喘为金标准。临床诊断与基于总分的诊断之间存在统计学意义(p=1.96E-07)。灵敏度为91.57%,特异度为51.35%,可有效发现OTA病例。阳性预测值为80.85%,阴性预测值为73.08%。OTA类别诊断非哮喘的相对风险为3.003,而非OTA类别诊断非哮喘的相对风险为0.262,几乎是非OTA类别的3倍。因此,OTA与非哮喘诊断一致。结论:在前瞻性研究中直接应用于患者,证明了该工具作为一种有效的筛查工具的价值。这是第一个通过排除来诊断哮喘的研究,为哮喘以外的疾病设计一个标准。
