Current RV vaccines did not affect the incidence of RV infection in newborn and preterm infants in the NICU. Most RV-positive patients in the NICU had symptoms, and the incidence of RV infection was relatively higher in hospitals and postpartum clinics with group life than home. The dominant RV genotype was G4P[6] across study groups.

Anorectal dysfunction may result in constipation, a bothersome defecation disorder that can severely affect daily lives of children and their families. In this review, we focus on different mechanisms underlying anorectal dysfunction and specific treatment options aimed at improving defecation dynamics in children with functional constipation.
To establish the sensitivity of the diagnostic criteria published by Marais and co-workers in 2010 for childhood tuberculous meningitis (TBM), a retrospective study on children with confirmed TBM was conducted.

Between January 2006 and December 2019, children consecutively diagnosed with TBM were recruited retrospectively at our center. TBM was defined in cases where any of the following criteria were met the presence of acid-fast bacilli (AFB) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) microscopy, CSF nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT, +), or
cultured from CSF. The demographic and clinical features of all enrolled patients were recorded including clinical characteristics, CSF findings, cerebral imaging features, and other evidence of TB.

A total of 30 children with confirmed diagnosis of TBM over an 14-year period were recruited. The mean age of patients was 7.2 ± 5.1 years and 16 (53.3%) were male. The estimated mean diagnostic score was 12.7 ± 2.4. Twenty-three (76.7%; 95% CI 59.1-88.2%) patients were classified as "probable TBM" according to the Marais criteria and 7 (23.3%; 95% CI 11.8-40.9%) as "possible TBM." Further statistical analysis revealed significant differences in CSF scores between probable and possible TBM groups. Other variables reported at a relatively low frequency, such as symptoms and imaging features, made little contribution to TBM diagnosis according to the Marais criteria.

Childhood TBM could be effectively identified by the criteria defined by Marais et al. However, further revision is required to ensure that the system is more sensitive and easier to perform in practice.

In this study we describe breastfeeding practices among women from semi-rural communities in southeast Mexico, and explore which factors, modifiable or not, are associated with such practices.

This was a formative cross-sectional study that included 143 mothers with infants 4-6 months old, from semi-rural communities in Tabasco, Mexico. We collected data on two categories of factors (1) women's sociodemographic characteristics, and (2) maternal / infant factors. We first analyzed the frequency of various breastfeeding practices. Then, we classified participants into the up to 1 month of exclusive breastfeeding group ( ≤ 1 m-EBF) and the beyond 1 month EBF group (>1 m-EBF), if they practiced EBF for less or more than 1 month, respectively. We compared the two categories of factors between groups and then, using logistic regression models, explored which factors were associated with practicing >1 m-EBF.

By the end of the 1st month postpartum, 51.7% of participants had abandoned EBF, introduced milk on; assertive personal counseling and accompaniment must be provided to mothers; and reinforcement during the early postpartum at health facilities and other settings.
Many factors associated with abandoning EBF, particularly in the early postpartum period, are modifiable and can be altered through timely interventions that include giving correct information and ensuring its comprehension; assertive personal counseling and accompaniment must be provided to mothers; and reinforcement during the early postpartum at health facilities and other settings.Isolated nocturnal hypertension (INH) is attracting attention because it has been shown to correlate with target organ damage as well as cardiovascular events in adults. INH has also been reported in children especially in those with underlying diseases including chronic kidney disease and some studies reported association with markers of early target organ damage. INH occupies the majority of nocturnal hypertension. On the other hand, masked hypertension is largely attributed to INH. INH is usually diagnosed by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Recently, it became possible to monitor sleep blood pressure by an automated home blood pressure device feasible also in children. The epidemiology, methodology and reproducibility, pathophysiology, relation to target organ damage, and treatment of INH in children will be reviewed here along with adult data.
Asthma is a common respiratory disease in children. We aimed to update information about the incidence and mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of childhood asthma and provide evidence-based recommendations for childhood asthma prevention.

Data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study, which was conducted from 1990 to 2019 in 204 countries. First, we estimated incidence, mortality and DALY rates of childhood asthma using a Bayesian meta-regression model. Second, we analyzed the relationship between the sociodemographic index (SDI) and DALYs in different age groups. Third, we studied changes in trends of the age-standardized DALY rate between 1990 and 2019 based on age group, SDI, and risk factors.

Globally, the number of deaths due to childhood asthma and the incidence and DALY rates were 12.9 thousand (95% UI 10.6 to 15.7), 22 million (95% UI 15 to 31), and 5.1 million (95% UI 3.4 to 7.5) in 2019, decreasing by 65.1% (95% UI 47.6 to 72.4), 5.3% (95% UI 2.6 to 8.8) andtors related to childhood asthma. Based on the data available, different risk factors according to age group and region/country suggest different prevention strategies, which is key for preventing childhood asthma.
Human trafficking is a global public health issue that affects pediatric patients widely. The International Labor Organization estimates children comprise approximately 25% of the identified trafficked persons globally, with domestic estimates including over 2000 children a year. Trafficked children experience a broad range of health consequences leading to interface with healthcare systems during their exploitation. In June 2018,
(ICD-10-CM) released diagnostic codes for human trafficking.

To use a large, multicenter database of US pediatric hospitalizations to describe the utilization of the ICD-10-CM codes related to child trafficking, as well as the demographic and clinical characteristics of these children.

This study was descriptive in nature. Encounters using data from the Pediatric Health Information System database (PHIS) with ICD-10-CM codes indicating trafficking from June 1, 2018 to March 1st, 2020 were included in the study cohort, with data collection continuing for 30 days after first c Black teenage girls. As comparison, in 2019 the National Human Trafficking Hotline identified 2,582 trafficked US children in a single year. These results suggest widespread under-recognition of child trafficking in health care settings, including the intensive care unit, in addition to racial and socioeconomic disparities amongst trafficked children.
Our study demonstrates a low utilization of human trafficking ICD-10-CM codes in academic children's health centers, with code usage predominantly assigned to Non-Hispanic Black teenage girls.

In this case, a 6-year-old boy was found to have abdominal distension for more than 2 months with no other obvious symptoms. Physical examination revealed a large abdominal mass that was hard and not mobile. Laboratory tests found no obvious abnormity. Preoperative ultrasound and CT showed a huge cystic and solid-cystic tumor in the abdomen with close relationship to the right lower margin of the liver and fluid accumulation in the abdominopelvic cavity. The preliminary diagnoses were a malignant tumor of embryonic origin and undifferentiated sarcoma. Liver tumor resection was performed in our hospital, and the postoperative pathology was diagnosed as hepatic hemolymphangioma. The patient recovered well after surgery. It is easy to diagnose a large abdominal mass in a child as a malignant tumor of the liver and delay the treatment-no obvious symptoms, no obvious abnormalities in laboratory tests, and imaging shows a multiocular cystic lesion with clear borders and no invasion of blood vessels, indicating that the possibility of this disease should be considered. The tumor has an abnormal rich blood supply, and preoperative imaging evaluation clearly shows the vascular pathway and blood supply status to help optimize the surgical plan.
Kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (kEDS; OMIM225400) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by variants in the
gene. This research was conducted to verify the disease-causing gene in a Chinese neonatal family with the EDS.

We recruited a Han Chinese neonate with
-related kEDS without kyphoscoliosis. Detailed clinical examination and laboratory tests were performed and whole exome sequencing (WES) was used to detect the pathogenic genes of the proband.
experiments (reverse-transcription PCR, quantitative real-time PCR) and
experiments (minigene analysis) were used to verify the function of variants suspected of affecting the splicing process. The effect of the splice site variant on the
transcript was analyzed using splice prediction programs NetGene2 and Alternative Splice Site Predictor (ASSP).

A homozygous synonymous variant c.1095C>T (p.Gly365, rs1032781250) in the
gene was found and verified in the family with kEDS. This splicing variant resulted in a premature termination codon of exon 10 and affected the expression of the four bases GCGC.

Our research showed that the homozygous synonymous variant in
was the pathogenic cause in the proband. The combined application of WES and functional studies verified the effect of uncertain gene variants on splicing, upgrading pathogenicity evidence, and determining the cause of disease. This is helpful for the early diagnosis and treatment of kEDS.
