Opsoclonus in Pediatric Patients: Differential Diagnosis and a Practical Approach to Evaluation
ABSTRACT Opsoclonus is an ocular dyskinesia characterized by involuntary, arrhythmic, multidirectional saccades. In pediatrics, opsoclonus is most commonly attributed to the rare neuroinflammatory disorder opsoclonus‐myoclonus‐ataxia syndrome (OMAS), typically considered a paraneoplastic syndrome associated with neural crest tumors. However, opsoclonus

Pain and fever are common in pregnancy. Dipyrone is widely used in Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia, but is banned in other countries due to concerns about agranulocytosis. Evidence on its safety in pregnancy remains limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate whether maternal dipyrone use during the first‐ and third‐trimesters is ...

Predicting attachment in Portuguese infants born very or extremely preterm: Understanding the roles of infant regulatory behavior, maternal sensitivity, and risk factors [PDF]
A growing body of research shows that early attachment relationships are foundational for children’s later developmental and psychosocial outcomes.However, findings are mixed regarding whether preterm birth predicts later attachment, but insecurity is

Long‐Acting Therapeutics in Pediatric Health: Bridging Innovation and Access
Children have distinct therapeutic needs arising from age‐dependent physiology, disease epidemiology, formulation requirements, dosing considerations, and safety vulnerabilities. Despite substantial reductions in childhood mortality over the past three decades, nearly 5 million children under five died in 2023, with infectious diseases continuing to ...

Anakinra, an interleukin‐1 receptor antagonist, shows promise for reducing inflammatory complications of premature birth. However, the pharmacokinetics (PK) of anakinra in neonates has not been characterized, limiting evidence‐based dosing. This study aimed to develop a population PK model for anakinra to guide dosing in preterm neonates.

Three dimensional optical imaging of blood volume and oxygenation in the neonatal brain [PDF]
Optical methods provide a means of monitoring cerebral oxygenation in newborn infants at risk of brain injury. A 32-channel optical imaging system has been developed with the aim of reconstructing three-dimensional images of regional blood volume and ...

Does angiotensin-1 converting enzyme genotype influence motor or cognitive development after pre-term birth? [PDF]
Background Raised activity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may both amplify inflammatory and free radical responses and decrease tissue metabolic efficiency and thus enhance cerebral injury in the preterm infant.
